WB owns the rights for some stuff on there, most likely outcome is Netflix swallowing HBO max

It's insane a streamer is buying an entire Studio but we've arrived at this hellish reality

Need SAG and PGA statements by midnight

I’m afraid that there are more of “them” than there are of us.

Casuals running this s***

isn't the PGA kinda know as bootlickers with this kind of stuff?

i could be wrong

this news is actually tragic hahahahah so f***ed man, all we can do is laugh

No price will ever go down for anything ever.

think hbo max stays as a standalone streamer for sometime and they will just offer a bundle package. If its all on netflix nobody is going to willingly pay close to $40 if not more for just 1 streamer

yea I think they'll just bundle like disney hulu espn

they tried that with the discovery merger and the two eventually got folded. Actually iirc it was almost immediate

yea you right
price was fairly the same as max before. Can't see Netflix being just a couple dollars more with WB content

If there was ever a time for trump to abuse his powers to interfere in something it’s now

S2 of the Pitt and we have to watch them strategically name drop 2 Netflix shows and a product per episode via a "studio" executive mandate

Discovery was a merger though. The point was to make 1 unified company. Discovery+ wouldn't make sense as an isolated service.

This is closer to the Disney situation where they held on to Hulu for a few years and then slowly put the pieces together

What you doing after your shift? Wanna Netflix and chill?

In 2026 where you can only catch Dune 2 in theatres for an afternoon before its shipped to the streamer

you're right I just meant the HBO platform has gone through so many iterations its like something like that also makes sense

It’s gonna get to close to around $40 a month maybe not right away but eventually. They’re getting HBO content and as new DC and other WB movies come to Netflix price will keep raising

HBO Max was Netflix’s main competitor in streaming

and they force villeneuve to hint at a netflix "universe" via Will Byers' corpse in a post credit scene or they pull funding and also Chani is lowkey Rue's evil twin (also via the "studio" executive mandate) and also there's a car placement in there for some reason

i would think disney+ personally but max was top 3 definitely

still s***ting on them in 2025 thats the crazy thing too
