The real question is if it goes past the third season (and not cancel it and announce a new show, like, Star Trek: Compuserve that coincidentally has the same cast and crew...)

Fire this big turd and instantly add $13.5 million back to the bottom line.

it’s the same AT&T CEO playbook: “Employee: Sir we lost subscribers; CEO: Increase prices !”   Yeah that turned out well for AOL and ATT. Anyone want to place a bet of how long Discovery will last (hopefully discovery’s awful sh.t will disappear just like AOL ). WB has one of the best IP out there, but for some reason…

From my perspective, they have already destroyed the HBO brand as far as streaming is concerned.

It’s not coincidence that Disney seems to release a new Star Wars or Marvel show just as the last one is ending.

I would drop Max if they raised prices. The app has become borderline unusable since the update, just from a technical perspective, and the flood of garbage reality shows that get pushed to me when I do open the app now is actively making me use it less often. Were it not for the HBO and TCM content I would have…

given away well below fair market value

As someone still doing that (the last person, maybe?), I can tell you it still looks way more expensive.  Just easier to navigate.

Why yes, execs have been on a free ride for too long and need to go...

It must be enlivening working for a company where you can be as big a piece of shit as you want to be and still never escape the shadow of Zaslav’s infamy.  Still, if I were an executive working at WB, I’d keep my casual villainy as anonymous as I could, and hope nobody ever learned my name.

Who convinced you that corporations deserve privacy? All they do is leverage that privacy to screw over consumers and employees. The obvious basis for that requirement would be to empower customers and employees.

I don’t believe them. They get by on not revealing any real data in every direction, there should be regulations that force transparency so that we don’t have to just go by the word of these companies.

Indy’s mom didn’t “leave;” she died. There’s a whole conversation between Indy and his dad just as they’re deciding to go to Berlin to recover the Grail diary, where his Dad says something like, “Unfortunately, she kept her illness from me until all I could do was mourn her.” It’s implied that one of the reasons…

I don’t know that it’s dying in so much as the same has been said of Disney over and over again, but ultimately they go through ebbs and flows of success. Realistically, studios need to be looking at how families are consuming media. It’s easy to say they were “relegated” to streaming, but arguably, that’s where kids…

We can argue superhero fatigue and Pixar fatigue and everything else, but realistically, studios also need to be looking hard at the box office and the theatrical experience. Across the Spiderverse was very successful as animation and a superhero movie, but much was written of the age of the audience skewing a lot…

I have no shame admiting I caught Flash on a pirate site. No way was I going to buy a theater ticket unless it was a home run flash point rather than a black adam.

I still say, telling people the “right way” to protest makes you look like an ass. Remember, these are people who would like to continue using Reddit when all of this is over. Not people who just want to leave.

We are talking about it and reddit is down because they chose to shut down whole sections of the site. Nobody would care or notice if a few people deleted their accounts.

Yet another site succumbing to the enshittification of the internet.
