IT'S SO OVER HAHAHAHAHAHA

>Sonic x Justice League in movie form will soon become a reality.
It's happening.

Why is Murica like this?

I guess Superman didn't really set the world on fire huh

>>150329552 (OP)
Isn't Paramount owned by a mega-Israel shill now?

>>150329552 (OP)
doesn't that mean Paramount would own both Nickelodeon and CN?
surely there being only two big companies that own everything (Disney and Paramount) has to be some kind of monopoly

>>150329552 (OP)
>Nickelodeon and Cartoon Network are now one family

spongebob x sonic x punk rock superman x tmnt x steven universe

>>150329628
Yep. Bari Weiss taking over thier news division. If not for yesterday we could've had a Charlie Kirk written Superman :(

>>150329618
Supes was never going to save DC especially after it bombed overseas. Another Batman movie would've had a better chance

How the fuck did things get to this point

>>150329608
Because it is set up of capitalism with no government intervention (which is what the /pol/ users want) that billionaires are made and then buy up everything to buy monopolies
In this case, the richest man on the planet who owns Oracle is individually buying Paramount, CBS, and now Warner.
Billionaire buying all media

>>150329552 (OP)
We'll get that Transfomers/DC crossover

>>150329669
Imagine all the potential crossovers they can have
>Dexter meets Jimmy Neutron
>Ren and Stimpy meet Cow and Chicken
>SpongeBob meets Chowder
>Jenny Wakeman meets Robotboy

Or at least those crossovers would’ve been possible if Nick wasn’t nothing but SpongeBob now and CN wasn’t basically dead

Grim. It basically means DC comics will get even worse, they'll fire Lee and Javins and replace them with some literally whos who would be even worse.

>>150329903
that'd be too decent, make it gayer and lamer

Euphoric atheist bro…

>>150329903
you missed the most obvious one
Dexter meets Dexter

>>150329552 (OP)
Would Zaslav still be in charge? He better not lay a finger on SpongeBob, he’s already fucking over Looney Tunes we don’t need more wacky cartoon erasure.

>>150329938
It depends on how much the offer is. If it's enough to cover Zaslav's salary for years then yes it will go through. If no that Warner will reject it and Zaslav will increase his salary another couple million dollars

>>150329903
Maybe Nicktoons can finally release the long awaited Nickelodeon vs Cartoon Network crossover game we’ve been waiting for

>>150329972
He green lit a new LT movie

>>150329972
Ellison already suggested Praeger U would take over SpongeBob content

>>150330015
I’m just praying it’s a cartoonist driven one like TDTEBU and not more "what if (CGI only) cartoon character was in live action?" slop like the overhyped Coyote Vs. ACME

Either way I wouldn’t get my hopes up based on TDTEBUs botched marketing he’ll probably leave this one to dry too.

>>150329982
Praying for the latter

>>150329706
Internet and social media
It isn’t Hollywood studio vs Hollywood studio now, it is also vs social media, gaming, and internet usage. This lowers the overall ability for studios to be independent in the face of tech bro cash
There is the reason the only ones who can remain untouched are Universal (already owned by Comcast who is largely selling internet and phone) and Disney (theme parks being the main reason they did not sell to another company)

>>150329552 (OP)
Seems like a terrible idea.
AT&T and Discovery both regretted getting involved with WB.

Imagine if this happened in the 90s or early 2000s. The amount of crossovers we would have possibly.

>>150329972

Well that's one way to avoid expanding HBO max.

>Warners was founded by Jewish brothers
>the youngest brother went behind his brothers back and sold his part of the company for it to keep existing
>WB and its many owners have been in varying states of turmoil in spite of its prestigious library

They just had to make good shows and movies but instead of doing that they said "Uhhh it's the audience's fault, they just don't like my stuff because they're too blinded by nostalgia for the 90s" and then the higher ups said "Well if that's the case you're all fired and we're only doing 90s reboots from now on."

We’re gonna be seeing South Park reruns on Adult Swim now holy shit

>>150329552 (OP)
isn't Paramount already 15 billion in debt?

>>150329706
When the government stopped caring about media consolidation and just kept approving mergers because uhhhh it’s always good for the consumer

>>150330176
ayy man you need to spend money to make money kowwhatimsayin

>>150330066
Paramount knows this which is why they're going full-ass and trying to buy the company wholesale. They don't want the fucking idiots running WBD, they just want their infrastructure and the giant pile of valuable IPs they're sitting on.

Of all the companies to buy out WB, Paramount was not on my bingo card.
They've failed this entire decade, and somehow they're going to be rewarded with all of WB's IPs?

>>150330227
WB has failed EVEN more. It's honestly a race to me who goes bankrupt first, Warner or Paramount.

>>150330227
It's not paramount buying them, it's this company that just happened to eat Paramount last year

>>150330227
It seems like the most toxic marriage I could think of. Two complete failures under one roof.

>>150329618
>>150329702
That makes less sense because Paramount is in an even worse state than WB this year.

>>150329552 (OP)
Who woulda thought a billion dollars worth of flops would sink them?

>>150330490
Which one is this referring to, because they've both been flopping

>>150329552 (OP)
Yah for consolidation!!

>>150330284
You’d like it or not?

Absolutely fucking not. Why would I post a picture of a bird shitting on a wall while screaming if I liked it?

So cartoon. Network and Nickelodeon will eat each other to the death?

You're the biggest faggot on /co/, and that's saying something.

>>150330169
>Drawn Together gets a revival series on Adult Swim

MAKE. IT. HAPPEN.

Didn't know Paramount was still a thing, thought it was on the way out like most of non Disney media companies in the 2010's

>>150330066
It's the other way around for Discovery. They'd have been bankrupt within two years if they hadn't hoodwinked the WB share/debtholders into the merger

>>150330733
No whichever one finds the next big thing will survive

>>150330836
Maybe competition within the company will cause great content to be made?

>>150329585
I imagine at the very least it'd get a DTV animated movie like Batman & Ninja Turtles.

>>150329552 (OP)
Yep, I'm thinkin' that Glitch won.

>>150330652
Yes, the sound the doors make when they open remind them of bowel movements

>>150329552 (OP)
Wait, how does Paramount have any money to buy WB when they're canning shows to pay off Trump?

this would never get through.
warner bros owns extensive physical assets in multiple countries worldwide (such as the gigantic studio complex they own outside London) that they would be extremely reluctant to divest in order for a deal like this to go through, and many TV channels and streaming platforms with significant local market positions worldwide.

>>150330960 (cont)
// not only would they have US regulators to deal with, european and especially british regulators have a huge amount of infleunce over warner bros and lobbying is not so much of a thing as it is in the us putting them in a much more difficult position than say with the Disney/Fox merger where largely the US was the only concern.

>>150329552 (OP)
Friendly reminder that this is not a product of capitalism but rather consensus and progressive liberal managerialism. None of the people here involved are people who actually own these businesses like Victorian bourgeois industrialists. Their transient rent seeking managerial bureaucrats. They merge organizations and centralize authority to make their jobs easier and to make their power more easy to exert. They lobby and write regulations to make this corse of events more profitable than alternatives in which they would have less power.

>>150330958
WB is just that worthless. Have you noticed they keep getting spun off, and then spun off again, and then spun off again? That tells me the studio must not have a very big price tag these days.

>>150331139
They wouldn’t be able to do that without capitalism bro

>>150330914
>gets eaten by Netflix or Amazon
*burp* Nothing personal.

>>150330478
They are hoping to pump their stocks. Maybe even said something about AI.

>>150331139
They get free money from cable, which is now just News, Politics, and Sports. They can lose money everywhere else and still be in the green.

>>150329552 (OP)
and how would paramount do that? they are like 30 billion in debt and no one has paramount+

>>150331450
They invented the Java programming language

>>150331139
>They merge organizations and centralize authority to make their jobs easier

Mergers happen because executives need to tell their investors that the stock price will keep going up and the only way they can easily accomplish that is through acquisitions that always excite investors.

>>150330690

>CN will become the Adult Swim channel and the very few CN shows will move to Nick.

>>150330066
Yeah. WB is a cursed company.

>>150329552 (OP)
Is WB the hot potato of corporations?

>>150331615
a theoretical Paramount/WB merger is not really comparable to the precedent of Discovery and AT&T, because both have a way more minimal international market presence than in the case of Paramount and WB combined, largely confined to pay TV in the case of Discovery and complete lack of presence in much of the world outside of the US in the case of AT&T.

both Paramount and WB own major networks internationally (e.g. Telefe in Argentina, TVN in Poland, Channel 5 in the UK) that fall under heavy regulatory scrutiny. this shit would never happen.

Disney will buy them all in the end.

>>150329552 (OP)
So that brings the choice of what streaming service to have down to like...3?

>>150330133
Oh my god.

>>150329936
>>150330061
Don't forget studios actively decided to drop home theater releases and cable broadcast channels for $8.99 streaming services!

>>150329552 (OP)
The atla x tmnt x dc crossover is gonna be fun

>>150330227
I thought a majority of their money was tied to cable being one of the biggest producers of cable channel content since the early 80s. Paramount still seems to make it through to the modern era somehow long after that avenue dried up.

>>150329706
Nobody cares about new cartoons anymore because now they've to fight time with social media, vidya and anime streaming .
And even with older media it doesn't help that they often hire shitty commiefornians leftists that use beloved IPs to spread their messages and alienate what's left of the audience for them

>>150329552 (OP)
Another mega corporation merger?

>>150330478
Yes but Paramount was just bought by a billionaire who is the son of the 2nd richest man in the world. Zassy doesn't have nearly as much capital

>>150332857
Musk's kids are old enough to buy companies now?

>>150330733
There is no watch CN as a network is going to keep surviving within 2 years of the purchase

>>150329668
No. Discovery spun off WB for this exact reason. Paramount just gets the IPs

Supermans James Gunn was supposed to save WB and it didnt

>Looney Tunes
>Hanna-Barbera shows
>Fleischer shorts all under one roof
>MGM animated shorts (Tom & Jerry, Tex Avery classics, etc)
>Terrytoons shorts (Mighty Mouse, etc)
>CN and Adult Swim shows
>All the MTV and Comedy Central animated shows
>Nicktoons
>TMNT
>Garfield
>DC Comics
>Star Trek
Holy shit that's going to be one huge IP catalog. Not to mention all the licenses they own - Sonic, Harry Potter, LotR, Dune, GoT, Transformers, G.I.Joe.
They have ZERO excuse to fail.
>>150330169
>>150330790
If true, I hope AS takes over the old MTV Animation catalog and add reruns to their schedule. Beavis & Butthead is a must imo.
A return of Checkered Past, but with Nicktoons shows added to the block. It would be awesome, yet extremely jarring. Imagine watching a Ren & Stimpy or a Rugrats episode right after Dexter's Lab. On fucking Adult Swim, no less.
Add Aeon Flux to Toonami's schedule, alongside ATLA and TMNT (2003).

>>150329552 (OP)
They're not the only ones in this bidding war.

But if Paramount/Skydance ends up the winner you can blame South Park for that.

>>150333141
The shills are really panicking right now over this. which is weird because it's been rumored for 2 years now

>>150333210
>They have ZERO excuse to fail.
and yet

>>150333265
Honestly my money is on Universal just for the Amusement Park IPs alone

Imagine the conjuring house at Epic Universe

>>150331384
Those numbers ended up being fake because MeTV and MeTV Toons isn't included.

MeTV Toons on September 9th 2025 got a audience score of 45,842,000.
>>150332037
Those are getting spon off, Paramount/Skydance isn't getting the networks.

>Paramount Skydance
>Warner Bros Discovery
What a nightmarish timeline. What will they be called when this is all said and done?
Paramount Skydance WB-D?
Warner Bros Discovery: A Subsidiary of Paramount Skydance?
Fucking hell.

>>150329608
Billionaires convinced the retard masses they would take care of them

>>150333952
Discovery isn't part of it

it might be Warner Bros Paramount but more than likely it's just going to be Paramount a Skydance company

>>150332208
>you count as an animal and not a human
humans are animals, retard
do you believe yourself as a plant or something? lmao

>>150333993
Unless legacy brands are used, the Warner Bros brand will still be used for Looney Tunes and those 90s Spielberg toons if Warner Bros takes full control but everything else might be straight up Paramount.

They're the richest, so why wouldn't they be the most fit to make decisions for us? If you made good decisions you'd be rich too

>>150329552 (OP)
Just think. We might finally get a DC project WITHOUT Peacemaker

>>150334238
because such decisions only concern money, silly boy

>>150329552 (OP)
But what does this mean for South Park?

>>150334897
It goes back to HBO Max now named Paramount+

>>150329552 (OP)
I have no idea who owns what, so to me it's just stuff as usual.

>>150329552 (OP)
surely this would be a massive anti-trust issue?

>>150335195
>anti-trust
You think this is the 1910’s? The US is basically 6 companies.

I'm just glad we finally got a proper blu-ray release of Cats Don't Dance before Warner Archive is kill.

>>150329552 (OP)
Can it be any worse than what Zaslav has done to the company?

>>150329552 (OP)
didn't they split WBD into WB and D already?

(idk time is relative so)

>>150335195
That's cute anon

>Warner Archive announces complete uncensored Tom & Jerry blu-ray set
>hints of more previously banned stuff may now be allowed as well
>this shit where it'll probably all be cancelled
it's just not fucking fair

>>150335433
They why they're wording it is that if it passes it means were getting Betty Boop and other Fleischer related Blu-Rays and Warner Archive releases of Gulliver's Travels and Mr.Bug Goes to Town remastered from the 32MM negatives.

Also Terrytoons and Ren and Stimpy on Blu-Ray from the 35MM negatives as well.

>>150329585
You know, I think you could get away with making Sonic cannon the James Gun movies.....

>>150329618
Superman made 100 million less than Man of Steel, why did people hype it up so much to begin with?

Cartoon and comic fans see monopolies being made before their eyes, and all they can think about is potential crossovers. Granted, not much else they can do.

>>150336034
they can buy more tickets and a paramount + subscription

>>150330733
I'm far more optimistic
>Nicktoons will be aimed at kids
>Cartoon Network/Adult Swim shows will appeal to only older audiences

>>150336095
>having optimism
>amidst the absolute STATE of cartoons and comics
Delusional.

the ONLY bright side of this would be the warner archives guys saving the terrytoons

Cartoon Network will be for REBOOTS
Nickelodeon will be for LIVE ACTION REMAKES
Paramount+ will be for VIDEOGAME CARTOON ADAPTATIONS
HBOMax will be for ADULT STONER CARTOON APARTMENT SITCOMS

>>150329706
Because the one retarded broken element of capitalism is that it expects endless growth so it doesn't matter if you do well, it only matters if you do better than you did before but at some point you're going to reach a point where you just can't reach the ceiling anymore and so the only solution is to just buy out your rivals and hope the combined power of your IPs and their IPs will help you chase the dragon. It's really fucking retarded and the only thing that matters is you made any profit that year.

>>150329710
>capitalism with no government intervention (which is what the /pol/ users want)
/pol/ users don't really care about this point unless it's Jews doing it, which in this case it is, so they do care

Paramount lost $6 billion last year and they're a $10 billion company

How do you people still not get this

Paramount gets the IPs. Discovery keeps the channels.

>>150335298
Yes. They split it to sell WB.

>Paramount buys WB
>"Eh, we don't need two kids networks"
>CN fucking dies

>>150332879
I didn't realize Larry Ellison became richer than Musk. Son of the richest man then.

>>150336648
That's likely going to happen. The country is getting sold for parts.

Or it just becomes adult swim 24/7

>>150336648
How will we live without the channel that brought us We Baby Bears, Craig of the Creek, Tig n' Seek, The Fungies, Apple & Onion, Unikitty, Mixels, Mighty Magiswords, Total Dramarama, Thundercats Roar, Steven Universe, Steven Universe Future, Steven Universe the Movie, and Teen Titans Go?

>>150335195
Not Anti-trust, a trust would be if Disney, Universal, Paramount, and Warner got together and set prices. It would be a monopoly situation, which is avoided because Universal and Disney exist. The only reason the FTC got involved in the Microsoft-Activision merger was that Sony pitched a fit because if they lost Call of Duty they would basically die off world wide. Someone posted a chart on /v/ the other day that showed most sold games by units, and in the top 20, all but 3 were Activision games.

>>150329552 (OP)

>>150336500
Nobody on this site reads past the headlines

Why keep the channels? They're all practically worthless now.

>>150336719
The remaining 17 were Nintendo games.

>>150329702
Again, if your reasoning is "Paramount is buying WB because Superman 2025 is le flop lel" then this makes even less sense because Paramount is doing worse than WB in 2025, and just finally got the Skydance merger through

Mission Impossible had a worldwide box office of $598 million on a budget of $300-400 million.
Smurfs made $117.4 worldwide on a budget of $58 million
Naked Gun 2025 so far is making $99.4 million worldwide on a budget $42 million.

Their hope right now is probably the Running Man remake and/or the upcoming Spongebob film.

We also still don't know what Skydance-run Paramount will be like because it just finalized in August this year. They shouldn't even be thinking about buying WB until they get their own shit in order.

>>150338192
It's called capitalism. Companies have to make bad movies that lose money because they're greedy and obsessed with money.

>>150338215
Capitalism doesn't work like that, in fact thats how communism works.

>>150329552 (OP)
also i totally got a channel-tan comic for this

(it was in another thread discussing the same thing but)

>>150338245
Communism makes good award winning movies like Ne Zha because communism understands the value of art.

>>150338266
No, it doesn't, you're delulu, seek help.

>>150338260
They're not going to get rid of Cartoon Network. They get paid by the number of channels and cable is the only source of profit since both of their streaming services and movie studios are complete money sinks.

>>150329552 (OP)
How can a company own both Nickelodeon and Cartoon Network. That seems too far.

>>150338354
Blame judges. Every time the FCC or anyone else tries to stop these monopolies or break them up, some dipshit judge disallows it.

>>150329710
>Because it is set up of capitalism with no government intervention
That's flat out fucking wrong. This is crony capitalism plain and simple, we're in this situation BECAUSE the government has intervened on the behalf of a handful of megacorps.

>>150338354
disney owns the copyright to monkeys using cymbals, the original author for the book that used it had to change it to a drum in the movie adaptation

>>150338215
>It's called capitalism

Just take the L

Christ, feels like WB is being passed around like a dime store hooker with all these major mergers in the past couple decades.

>>150336648
They just turn it into an American version of YTV.

This thread reeks of people who just watch podcasters and have never read a word of Marx, or Adam Smith for that matter.

>>150338611
Disney were in their same spot in the 2000s, except they had pixar cranking their asses making masterpiece after masterpiece to keep them afloat, WB is just bleeding more and more money with every turn

>>150338614
Dumbass, Marx constantly wrote about his utopian version of the world which subscribed to the cool straight streaming service, and not the shit gay one. The Soviet Union was originally based on those concepts.

>>150338637
Yeah Disney could not make a single movie worth a shit between 1999 and 2009. Pixar was printing money for them the whole time.

If only there was some way out of this rut...

That's not what happened. You were just too nostalgic for the 90s. It's called the cartoon renaissance for a reason.

OP and others are desperately clinging on to their narrative of Superman 2025 flopping even though it keeps falling apart when people start thinking for a minute

See picture.

Indeed, if this Warner Bros X Paramount buyout goes through we're getting Betty Boop and Mighty Mouse (because Paramount also owns the Terrytoons) on Blu-Ray.

CN and the rest of the Turner networks is getting spon off into Discovery Networks, Paramount is just getting the IPs and production studios so it will not get the networks.

It also means this will make a return to Nick.

Oligarchy.

No.

>>150336648
All of the Warner Bros cable network are going to be with Discovery after the split

Something about zero interest loans driving up inflation. The only way to get ahead is to control the market now. Taxies replaced by uber that sort of thing

>wb is being sold again
who fucking cares anymore

the only reason I want disney to buy wb (won't happen) is so they can actually make and release stuff with DC and looney tunes instead of giving it to the government for a tax write-off.

Specifically, WB has been dropping in value so much faster than paramount that makes this conceivable. WB has a 5 year drop from about 60 a share to something around 7-10.

Paramount has "only" went from 40 to 10.

Hope this could also open the doors for Warner Archive to handle the Blu-Ray releases of Nicktoons' shows, in the same fashion they've been releasing the Hanna-Barbera shows on Blu-Ray.
Btw will they ever start managing the releases of the original Cartoon Network shows? Giving them actual quality releases, instead of these rat ass, Dollar Bin-tier DVD collections?

consolidation as a direct consequence of partisan media industrial complex kneecapping itself

tranny communists cannot discern between neocons, chuds, or lolberts. they just see red because the aforementioned groups clash against their worldviews for one reason or another.

>>150342445
I honestly rather see universal buy WB at this point because their catalog of IPs is pretty fucking barebones

what a queer

Anybody with a brain can see as much being the obvious answer, but it's not like the other shit they were producing was doing much to retain viewers either. For as much as people lewd the characters you know for a fact SU and the like turned away swaths of young male viewers. That's why anime is so monolithic now.

Depends if the 35MM film negatives exist, Some Ren and Stimpy episodes were done digitally but otherwise they still have the 35MM film negatives, same goes for most of the 90s Nicktoons (as the rest like Kablam were digitally produced or have live action segments shot on tape such as Action League Now).

The problem is the editing as that was done on tape so Warners will have to redo all of the edits in 4K to match those SD tape prints, just like they did to Batman: TAS, Superman: TAS, season 1 of Batman Beyond (season 2 was done digitally) (as all of WB's digital productions were thankfully mastered in 1080p) and The Sylvester and Tweety Mysteries.

>the fucked up the hobbit (lotr franchise)
>they fucked up fantastic beasts (harry potter franchise)
>they fell for the rotten tomato meme and rugpulled the DCEU (just like bay and transformers)

On the other hand all those shitty rebootslops from the early 10's like regular show, adventure time and Steven Universe might get cancelled due to also executive meddling

>>150340594
Nah, TTG is just the convenient scapegoat to blame all the network's faults.
A better question would be when are we gonna finally admit that CN never actually left the dark ages in the late 00's with CN real?

The last big hit of CN was Ben 10 which was essentially the last hurrah of toy cartoons and the few good shows like RS or Gumball were originally Adult Swim shows and bandaids at best, in fact another of those was the entry level for a bunch of terrible people from Tumblr to produce nothing but shit and spread their cancer on the channel.
Even with TTG out of the picture the channel would have still contiinue to declined hard, if anything they kept CN in coma after everyone left TV cable

>>150343749
Holy shit, please let that be the case.

>>150344032
I even believe that they're doing all of that just to make the company look "healthy", this is a usual move before selling it
