Same thing happened after Disney bought 20th Century, long time executives left the studio.

Nothing to see here, still no indication that WB Discovery is for sale or that Disney is going to buy them.

Looks like Disney MIGHT will go after Comcast before they may possible buying Warner Bros. Discovery.

What? Disney is mentioned once in that entire article, in parenthesis noting Disney bought Fox as a reason we would lose another major studio. In fact, the article says people are assuming Comcast is absolutely buying them when they can. Which, maybe I missed it somewhere else, negotiations can't even begin til April 2024. So revive this thread in 1.5 years.

Disney has money to buy up companies to the tune of millions of dollars but can't/won't keep the parks in tip top shape and pay a higher wage to attract employees and continually raise prices. Another reason why Disney many are through with them.

Look my friend, I know you're trying to will this into existence because of your incessant desire to see WB characters like Bugs in the same movies with Mickey. And I suspect that is because you think that is what is going to get a Roger Rabbit sequel. But its just not happening, at least not any time soon.

As was pointed out in the article WB-Discovery can't even be purchased by another company until April 2024 at the earliest. Which myself and other posters told you was going to be the case, no one is going to purchase WB-Discovery any time soon. And as was pointed out already by other poster, there is barely even mention of Disney at all, only once, in that article.

The only thing the article really states is that WB-Discovery is looking to find their own Kevin Feige-like person to oversee all of DC, something we already knew was happening.

So no I'm sorry but this is not even an article that provides a "might" for Disney buying WB-Discovery.

I think you need to give up on this for now, maybe only revisit this topic again in April/May of 2024 at the earliest.

I asked TheComicPals about Disney buying WB at 6:57 on Twitch.

No offense, not that they would know anything anyways, but they didn't say anything even close to an answer and even sounded like they were making fun of the question.

Honestly this isn't even a topic that can be discussed any more as its now public knowledge that WB-Discovery can't even be sold/bought by anyone until at least 2024. So really this topic needs to go away for awhile, revisit it in April/May 2024.

But you know all of this is in development and it might change. Comcast might not buy WBD. Someone else might instead.

How do we know all of this is in "development"? WB-Discovery is not actively looking to be bought, period. So I don't know why a couple of you think this is something that is just going to announced any day.

And again it is now reported that it is literally in the contract that WB-Discovery CAN'T even put itself up for sale until April 2024 at the earliest. So no there is nothing in "development".

Here's an article saying that this is all early. https://www.adweek.com/lostremote/is-warner-bros-discovery-going-to-merge-with-nbcuniversal/66483

The key piece of that article that is being lost is "negotiations would have to wait until April 2024 to begin".

That is confirmation that even if Comcast, or someone else, wanted to buy WB-Discovery that its not for sale until April 2024.

No one is buying WB-Discovery for at least 18 months. Not Comcast. Not Amazon. Not Apple. Not Disney. No one. Period. End of Story.

Come back and revisit this story in April 2024.

Stress again, it's not they can't be sold til 2024, they can't even begin discussing it til 2024. No article speculating how cool this or that would be means a thing, it legally is a dead issue for another year and a half.

Two reasons in 2024: Election Day 2024 and Trump's going trying to be new president again.

I'm sorry, what? What does any of that have to do with WB-Discovery not being able bought by anyone until at least April 2024?
At least WB-Discovery would buy Six Flags sooner as Six Flags is a big trouble now this year, it may go bankrupt by end of 2022 or next year. The parks isn't doin' fine now due to new CEO of Six Flags.

Good lord I can't even keep up with this thread. So now disney is buying six flags? Or the company that was in such trouble some was buying them imminently now suddenly has the cash for six flags?

Six flags is in trouble and going to sell, Disney Irish now can buy up six flags. But only if he thinks that Iger is going to run in the 2032 presidential election.

Again what? You’re literally making no sense in these last two posts.

Sorry but Six Flags is not in my portfolio and never will be. :)
