And that leads to the next question about the future of Hollywood and which way Hollywood will go.
Pretty much, yes.
Warner has 10 business days to respond to Paramount's offer.
So we have to see how all that goes.
plays out and that's kind of what we're waiting for next and also just in theory it netflix could try to come back with a bigger offer if if
warner were to suddenly change its mind conversely if netflix feels are getting into a bidding war that they don't want to be in or this is just too much of a public uh battle that's not necessarily their style maybe maybe they would walk i i don't know but that's you know those are the questions we'll all be waiting to see answered hopefully in the next few weeks
Well, eventually, I mean, if Netflix is successful, they will have an even bigger library of TV shows and movies.
And with Paramount, same sort of thing in terms of building up a library and a stronger streaming product.
any one of these deals takes one buyer out of the marketplace really even if they say well we're running it separately and everything no it's all part of the same company so that's always a concern just to have fewer places to shop your products to it gives someone more control to set pricing i mean one of the reasons netflix is sort of viewed still you know warily by hollywood is when they came in and started making original programming of course they threw money at everyone tons of money
Then once they got all the talent, of course, then they started the belt tightening.
Suddenly it's like, yeah, no, we're not making it rain anymore.
So that's always a challenge for the creators, writers, producers, actors, just fewer people to play off one another.
Going forward, when Netflix is really calling the shots there, how committed will they be to the traditional theatrical release?
We know the company doesn't love it.
So certainly it is safe to say that if Netflix does continue with a theatrical model for Warner Brothers, they are going to really try to shorten those windows between how long a movie is in the theaters and when it can be elsewhere.
To hear Netflix and Warner talk about it, this deal is going to sail right through.
But to talk to Paramount, which of course lost out, and to various antitrust lawyers and even a few former regulators I've chatted with, this deal is going to face a lot of
Challenges.
The real question for Netflix will be how the Department of Justice views the streaming landscape and competition.
Netflix would tell you they compete with everyone.
