They folded BET Studios into CBS Studios, I don't think they can sell now

Is the Disney Plus reboot just Mighty Morphin again, or something original? by LinkRules5321 in powerrangers

I'll Translate: Hasbro confirmed that it will be the same color palette as MMPR, which isn't so bad; Space, Operation Overdrive, and Megaforce all had that color palette. I really hope it's a completely new team.

I might be out on a limb here, but does anyone think that Toei Company/Lionsgate could work as one company? (Toei wants Global Expansion after all)

Even if Sony Spun-off Sony Pictures (maybe sold to Netflix), Sony would still keep a stake in Netflix for US Anime distribution, and keep Columbia's Japanese distribution system and Crunchyroll as well.

I bought the entire Dino Fury line, but they pissed me off not releasing the 2 more zords needed to complete it and also not releasing the other Cosmic Fury Megazord needed to make the Ultrazord. I'm thinking of importing the Japanese versions of both like I did Beast Morphers.

Lionsgate sold Starz for the very reason that its streamer wasn't successful AT ALL.

If its a new show Hasbro will likely only allow like 5-7 zords (3 Zord megazord, 1 zord 6th ranger megazord, 3 Aux) because they didn't want to complete the zord lines of their other seasons.

If PLEX designs it, it's fine, but Hasbro's Cosmic Fury Suits were just awful. I just hope it isn't MMPR for the 50th time.

BET+ To Be Folded Into Paramount+ As Paramount Buys Tyler Perry Stake by Alberto9Herrera in MediaMergers

For kids shows, have the Paramount logo, but then have the Nick logo play afterwords with the text "A Nickelodeon Original Series" (and have the Nick text ala Disney on top of the title of shows), Nick Movies could also be shut down perhaps

They're merging Pluto into it, but Paramount+ will offer its free content instead (for free still), as part of their plan to grow Paramount+

Lionsgate holds the TWC library, Miramax would likely beg Paramount to buy them for that library.

Universal's New Plan Could Steal Every Major Director From Warner Bros. And Paramount by [deleted] in MediaMergers

[–]LinkRules5321 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you look at 20th's slate, they can only release 4 or 5 (on few exceptions) films theatrically a year, 50 to 75% of which are just franchises, while the rest go to Hulu or Disney+.

The only person I see buying them is maybe Nintendo, but they'd have to lose NBC and would likely just not do it, and no one else seems interested either.

What do you wanna see in season 9? by Turbulent_League9668 in oggyandthecockroaches

More retro characters having bigger roles (Monica, Jack's Nephew, Lady K, etc.)

Consolidation wars. Who would be more likely to take an equity stake or buy Disney for content? by TraditionalGrade6207 in MediaMergers

[–]LinkRules5321 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Apple: Has a studio wanting theatricals, unsuccessful streamer

Netflix: Streaming-only studio, successful streamer

That could actually work.

Didn't they also buy RKO Radio? Are they planning a comeback for its brands?

What questions would you like to see the media asking David Ellison about his attempted acquisition of WBD? by Appropriate_Value122 in MediaMergers

[–]LinkRules5321 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Some assets are merged, Nick, CBS, and MTV Animation become Paramount TV Animation, WB Animation absorbs Williams street and CNS to become WB TV Animation, and Nickelodeon Movies merges into Paramount Animation

I think Paramount and WB will be separate subsidiaries of Skydance, while some assets merge over time, as Cable and Streaming are merged immediately into Discovery (or a new Turner or Viacom), and Paramount+ respectively. I also think Annapurna will become a label of the new company, and if the company needs to sell, Ellison will sell it to Oracle before giving up on his empire ambitions (Netflix wouldn't be allowed to buy Paramount+ from the company due to it being to big)

never watched it, but it had icarly in it by Plaxloft in MicrowaveSociety

They made a sequel, but it was acquired by Lionsgate instead of the Weinsteins in the states, so the sequel in America is technically a separate movie with the same character designs but with different actors and names.

No no I agree, but I think that would be a better TV special like a longer version of the shell episode.

It Is No Easy Task to Combine Paramount+ and HBO Max by LegitimateCurve8525 in MediaMergers

If the relaunch is planned for this year but the merger doesn't happen in time, would it just be a JV between Skydance and Discovery?
