    Superman did that badly....

    It's not Superman at all

    It's everything BEFORE it that got WB in this position

    Zaslav merged WB with Discovery ultimately so he could sell it. That's been the game since day 1.

    If anything, Superman and the rest of WB's success this year drove the price UP for anyone looking to buy it

    According to a new report from Bloomberg, Paramount Skydance, which has been making escalating offers to Warner Bros. in an effort to acquire the company over the past month, would plan to keep most of the company intact.


    When it comes to streaming services specifically, though, Bloomberg notes that David Ellison’s plan would see HBO Max merge into the existing Paramount+ platform.


    Under this new merger, Paramount+ would house all of the offerings of the company and, according to Bloomberg, the idea would be to have Paramount+ be seen as a more compelling option for subscribers going forward. No official confirmation on a merger has been made yet, but Paramount continues to be fairly aggressive in its efforts to acquire the company.

    @op how much they selling for? Might need to put in a bid

    Last bid they rejected was $24.50 per share

    They are likely going to get $30/share so possibly $70-90 Billion

    I liked the version of the app before the discovery merger but still in general it feels underrated as a streamer

    Sony said, they're not interested in getting WB, so it's either Netflix, Comcast or Paramount trying to get Warner Bros.

    If Netflix let WB continue making physical copies and make theatrical releases, then I'll look the other way

    For me, I much rather deal with Comcast or let Warner Bros Discovery split on their own terms. However, I'm more concern on who is gonna get WB Games?

    I was watching some gaming pod’s and they were saying they haven’t heard any rumblings on who would even be interested in WB Games

    I woulda said Microsoft some years ago but we know how things are going over there now

    Crazy how the gaming landscape has changed. Microsoft can't get any company for a long time after getting Activision Blizzard, EA is getting brought out, Ubisoft might get brought out by Tencent and who knows if Take Two is still interested.

    Doesn't help that WB pump fake twice on selling their gaming division when publishers learned that they're only getting the developers, not the IP as well.
