  1. Who Framed Public Transit in LA?
    -
    Rodger Rabbit is about more than WB and Disney chars goofing off in the same world. What you might not have noticed is its message about how Los Angeles' public transit system was one world class, until it was sabotaged. There's more to the highway plot.

  2. "You Must Have Been a Beautiful Baby" is a #popular song with music by #HarryWarren and lyrics by #JohnnyMercer, written in 1938 for the #WarnerBrothers movie #HardToGet, released November 1938, in which it was sung by #DickPowell.

  3. "Gulf sovereign wealth funds are undertaking a sweeping review of American investments, driven by a combination of commercial necessity and political recalibration driven by the Iran war, according to sources familiar with deliberations around the high-level financing deals.

    In particular, the planned merger between Paramount Skydance and Warner Brothers Discovery, made possible as a result of Gulf financing, is getting a new look. A postponed meeting of the board of the Qatar Investment Authority will reconvene within the next week as the fund recalibrates its investment approach, a source with knowledge of the deliberations said. “Even from a purely, purely numbers perspective, you have to look at this again,” said the industry source, asking for anonymity to speak freely about investment matters rarely discussed publicly.

    No announcement from the meeting is expected, the source said, as the Qataris are unwilling to unilaterally back out of the deal without Saudi Arabia also doing so. Withdrawing from the deal would be seen as a political shot against both Israel and the United States, which Qatar feels it can not undertake alone under the current circumstances.

    The merger between the two media conglomerates was announced on February 27, 2026. The next day, the U.S. and Israel launched a surprise attack on Iran, which responded, as promised, by attacking Gulf countries hosting U.S. bases. Those same Gulf countries are the primary financial backers of the merger, according to documents on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Wealth funds connected to Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and the United Arab Emirates pledged $24 billion to back the deal, which cost nearly $111 billion."

  4. RE: cyberplace.social/@GossiTheDog

    Oracle, and their shitty but first-on-the-market proprietary database systems, is why Ralph Ellison and his spawn get to wreck the #media landscape.

    the Ellisons print money with #Oracle. it’s why they’re behind the MAGA enshittification of #CBSNews, #Paramount and #WarnerBrothers.

    so they just fired 30,000 workers from Oracle to put all that money into their #GenAI, stochastic-parrot-as-a-service (SPaaS).

    the Ellisons bankruptcy will be one of the most celebrated in the #tech world.

  5. Diese #Oscars waren der Schwanengesang für #WarnerBrothers. Was für ein run! Schön, dass wir bei diesem peak dabei sein konnten.

  6. Jessie #Buckley kann einen ganzen Film tragen, auch so ein Chaos wie "The Bride!", natürlich verdient sie den Oscar! Zu #WarnerBrothers muss man sagen: Wir werden dieser Zeit nachtrauern, wenn Paramount zugeschlagen hat. Der run von WB in den letzten vier Jahren ist sagenhaft! #Kino
