Okay, if this is true, now all the cost-cutting decisions under the justification that “Zaslav makes good business decisions for the company” should just have this pic posted in response.

Like… why is advocating for the devil even a thing? Its the devil.

[up][up] Unfortunately it isn't. Current laws make it very easy for ceos and shareholders to use companies and properties as their own personal piggy banks at the expense of everyone else.

If WB wants to save millions, they should can Zaslav.

Its a weird defense when people say that Zaslav is "actually bringing money in which means he's a good CEO"

The amount of stock value lost during Zaslav's tenure aint making all that money brought in look impressive

[up] Ugh, if they're gonna replace WB's animation head with someone from the unscripted devision, couldn't it be someone who has experience working on Whose Line? The people there at least seem to be animation fans.

I mean they might be adapting the Similarian maybe children of Hurin (would catch the game of thrones fans)

IIRC they don't have the rights to anything except The original Lord of the Rings book and the The Hobbit. That was why the hobbit movie had to skirt around the names of the blue wizards because they weren't named in the works they had the rights to.

At best, it's going to be based on Lot R's appendices I would think.

Apparently they already have a film in the line, says the Wrap:

https://www.thewrap.com/new-lord-of-the-rings-movie-release-window-peter-jackson/

The Lord of the Rings: The Hunt for Gollum. Directed by Andy Serkis. Sounds like it’s gonna focus on young Aragorn.

Is there a dedicated thread for the Lord of the Rings series?

WBD won't be delisting Adult Swim Games, will be giving back control to their creators.

Whew, that's a relief.

Still, that whole scare finally gave me the incentive to bite the bullet and actually pick up Samurai Jack: Battle Across Time.
