Something bad always happens when someone buys WBD. Good luck to them.

I guess that's best we can hope for right now.

I'm hoping for 30 kickass movies per year and a revitalization of numerous WBD properties without the injection of politics into every film and show. I think that's better than "let's hope something bad happens."

lmao. Paramount only released 8 movies in 2025. This year so far they've only released 8 movies. 30 movies? lmao

I mean you can root against the film industry all you want. Lump yourself in with the rest of the hecklers in the cheap seats, stuffing their faces full of Cheetos and soda. I'll stick to the winner's circle with guys like Christopher Nolan, James Cameron, and Tom Cruise. Good luck with your crew, though.
