It was being worked on up until right now and was all set to go later this year. But they just had to pull it all away and delete the whole thing without second thought. That is especially ghoulish. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're still gonna air S2 on P+...but no one will be able to catch up when it airs. Brilliant decision! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah, they cancelled it on P+ and are "shopping it to other streamers", which I feel like won't work that well 2 hours ago, Eric Wayne said: Scientology should buy up Paramount since it's the only thing keeping it afloat as-is Edited June 24, 2023 by TMP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WittyUsername Posted June 24, 2023 Share Posted June 24, 2023 Paramount should just make Tom Cruise their CEO. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alexander Posted December 8, 2023 Share Posted December 8, 2023 Skydance's trying to buy them now. Guess they'll transform into content-producer for Netflix, Apple and Amazon if this deal happens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryan Reynolds Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 not sure what the future of Paramount will be , but this seems better than Paramount being absorbed by WBD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In this idiotic streaming era some more consolidation would be good. Plus we need stronger arms against Disney after that Fox purchase was allowed and they got idiotically big But it would also means less competition. Ehhh....

The consolidation issue is that a competitor effectively stops operating. Disney didn’t actually gain anything that would’ve increased their ability to produce more content. They didn’t produce more movies, I’m pretty sure WBD produces more television. Disney buying Fox plugged holes in their content library - especially television. WBD and Paramount produce the exact same product. A merger would end up with WBD rummaging through scraps, keeping what works, and shutting down or selling off what doesn’t (including WBD stuff too. Cartoon Network would certainly be dead). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But access to bigger library of IPs and a larger security blanket thanks to increased dolla size of the company allows less desperate shitty sequels one after another. If Disney didn't have Marvel and Avatar, you think they would EVER allow this kind of a pause for SW films? Nah Look at Sony and what happens when the entire company is basically just Spider-Man..

Alexander Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 I think they'll end up as a factory for streaming services. Basically what Skydance was doing for some time now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
filmlover Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 Was looking at the schedule to see what Paramount has on deck next. 2/14: Bob Marley: One Love 5/17: IF 6/28: A Quiet Place: Day One 9/13: Transformers One 10/18: Smile 2 11/22: Gladiator 2 12/20: Sonic the Hedgehog 3 And in 2025 so far: 2/14: animated Smurfs 5/23: Mission: Impossible 8 10/10: animated Last Airbender 12/19: animated SpongeBob With very little else looking to head into production soon. Definitely showing the signs of a studio that's on its last days before a merger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
