The Warner Bros. Thread | Will NOT merge with Paramount...capitalism is still terrible

[Morieris]

What does WAG even have in development -- Ah, more animated versions of historical properties they own, but with presumably less being self aware.

Quote

Warner Bros Discovery chief executive David Zaslav earned $232 million in excess compensation in 2021

 

That's two-and-a-half Batgirls of salary for the man slashing everyone's budget but his own.

Good for Zaslav, keep righting the ship.

Woah. I did see that they were gonna produce his daughter's debut film. Didn't realise Shymalan was jumping on board too.

Now that Blue Sky is gone, they’ve officially become the blandest mainstream animation studio in Hollywood.

Still amazing the Warners, who has such a rich tradition in animated films, second only to Disney, has had such problems being a player in modern animaed films. I think they might be lookiing to change this.

TBF their history has always been animated shorts and not feature films. Most of their animation library is from acquiring the likes of Hanna Barbera and MGM cartoons, the Looney Tunes is the only thing that they've own fully since their creation.

 

With The Marvels moving to November, I wonder if we might see WB do a few date changes like first week of August for Blue Beetle or Meg 2.

COnstantine connection with the DCU was pretty loose anyway. Technically he was in it, but the stories generally sort of ignored the rest of the DCU. Yeah,he dated Zatanna but that was about it.

And I guess the Metal Men film is dead. Too bad, that was my favorite  minor league SIlver Age DC comic series.

This Zas picture cracks me up every time, especially when it's used in an ironic way like this
