I reply the wrong person and thought I reply JAROD THOMAS MIGHTY since February 10, 2021, anyway, Warnermedia Buys MGM, Wow it’s like you hardcore Disney people want the company to become a monopoly. Netflix? Maybe after Warner acquires MGM, Disney one day will get smart and offer to swap out films that do not fit what they like ( such as 10 ( Dudley Moore), Stakeout, Shoot To Kill and Fox Westerns like Rio Conchos and the Comancheros and One Foot In Hell ( all of which are violent)) for films like Chitty Chitty Bang Bang or Mama Mia ( another film you cannot pay me to watch, but fits Disney well). I get it I like both of those streaming services, Netflix wouldn’t be a good place for MGM content because it has mostly modern films and not a lot of older films. 2. Now, MGM, in the past decade, has only been averaging 3-4 films per year. Yep Eastwood is and always will be heavily associated with Warner Bros. adding UA’s Man with No Name Trilogy will be perfect for WarnerMedia. That’s very interesting because all The Pre-May 1986 MGM films are owned by Warner, but the WB logo does not appear until the film is over. Amazon could also be a potential player, but has apparently not yet … I tried Sex and the City because I had a thing for Kim Cattrell but Catty women and gossip are not my cup of tea. Sony is last mainly cause although they make good movies in the past most of their films in the last 2 decades haven’t all that great and if it weren’t for the fox library Disney would be 3rd. Disney? Get the best deals for mgm disney at eBay.com. so do I have been predicting Warner Media buying MGM since November 2015 the past 5 years and 1 month, Me three those 2 along with Netflix are the only companies I’m fine with buying MGM. And by the way I meant to put lackluster films that did poorly in the box office for Paramount. A point that I made before is film studios will regret not buying MGM ( especially Amazon and Apple), looks more accurate by the day. However, it cannot be announced due to to anti-trust issues, and needing permission from EON to let Warner take over. No Warnermedia/AT&T is a much better option for Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer than Disney for 5 reasons not hesitate, to give those up to dump the rest of the library on someone. Why? I get that you hate companies don’t show availability for their films, but I don’t support the WarnerMedia and NBCUniversal merger Less competition less originality. I feel even more confident that MGM will have to sell at a price lower then they want and that means Warner gets the library at a discount. What’s on Disney Plus (WhatsOnDisneyPlus.com) is a unofficial fan site and is not endorsed, moderated, owned by or affiliated with Disney in any capacity. 4: Late 50’s early 60’s UA films ( Man With No Name Trilogy, Magnificent 7, Hecht-Lancaster-Hill films, Stanley Kramer films etc). It is possible that since Universal have not made a new Hulk film rights can revert back to Disney ( like Punisher and Daredevil). 3. It's pretty much evident that the food delivery space in India is all set to get riled up soon enough as one of the... Mukesh Ambani's retail empire has not only emerged as an unstoppable force in India but also on the global frontier! What will likely happen is they will take the film library and Bond and sell the rest ( Sony, Comcast and Viacom are all possibilities ( EPIX makes a lot of sense for Sony especially because their distribution deal with Netflix is very short only 4 years)). I get that Universal is very protective of their vault but it’s not just their classics like the Abbott and Costello films, Hitchcock films, their monster films, Spartacus, the Pre-1974 Rankin Bass films, Field of Dreams, Jurassic Park, Parenthood, and The Blues Brothers that left Peacock, but also their modern films as well such as the various Dreamworks animation films, Meet the Parents, Ray, A Beautiful Mind, and even the only good Fast and Furious movies which are Fast and Furious 6, and Fast 7. I’m just saying Disney is 100% fine without MGM and has a ton of content from themselves and the other studios they own. I can only imagine what they would do with Scarface ( Pacino) or Cagney precedes.? It is important to note that Bond was UA before 1986. I agree with you that MGM had more stars ( Myrna Loy along with Salma Hayak are my all time favorites), although on average I preferred Warner because I am a big Cagney, Robinson and Bogart fan, and the same for Paramount ( Cooper, Ladd and Lake)). Something other companies did not bid on. Neither of these shows I will watch. That means warner would own Pre-2030 MGM Library (Along with Post-May 1986 MGM Library). 3: Universal. The kind of companies that could afford AMC, Lionsgate and ( especially) Sony? By the way your actually right about Dr. Strangelove even though it’s rated PG it’s way too edgy and politically incorrect to be on Disney Plus. The next key date to watch for is the release of No Time To Die ( the new Bond film). And I honestly like HBO Max better than Netflix and Disney+. I don’t think MGM selling films and Pink Panther to Warner will make the company any better it’ll just be like the 1986 Turner situation all over again (the time they lost their library of films and shows to Ted Turner’s Turner Broadcasting) which was one of the reasons why the studio has gone vastly downhill I prefer AT&T/WarnerMedia buying the company and giving some assets to Comcast. Clyde, thank you for the Information I did not know that MGM had those films ( thank you for the information). They will want to buy MGM completely and that will include Bond. The only question is Bond. Warner the library and Leo the Lion. MGM films (on average) are older and really do not have much of a place on Netflix ( this does not even include Epix). 2. There are also reports of private equity firms looking to purchase MGM to take advantage of the demand for content. They would be a perfect compliment to each other content wise. Netflix, Viacom and Comcast ( Universal) AMC and Lionsgate ( I could especially see Netflix buying Lionsgate so they acquire a movie studio). Once again MGM is putting itself up for sale, and it appears that it is asking for $5B. When Disney did the mediocre prequel Oz the Great and Powerful there was a legal battle between Disney and Warner over who gets control of the characters and the public domain parts of the film Warner of course won and Disney was not allowed to use any character likeness from the 1939 film, to employ the yellow brick road’s swirl design, make Emerald city to identical to the 1939 film, nor use the trademarked ruby slippers. All of these are major Universal movies leaving the service. I have Hulu more as part of the bundle with ESPN Plus and Disney. The current AT&T Inc. claims the original AT&T Corp.’s history (dating to 1877) as its own, but retains SBC’s 1983-2005 corporate structure and pre-2005 stock price history. Universal and Paramount aren’t players in this drama. Also, the probable materialisation of the deal comes at a time when streaming users are desperately waiting to watch new titles, a promise which the likes of Netflix and Disney+ couldn’t deliver because of the pandemic which led to the production of new shows and movies being paused. I really would not be shocked if a deal has already been completed to bring the entire MGM library to Warner control (not just licensing to their networks and DVD’s). Weird I thought Marvel always had Captain America film rights? Warner owns very few Sci-Fi movies or series and there is certainly a fit at Disney with Star Wars etc. You are correct that a number of them are in the public domain. Will The Online Food Delivery Market in India End Up Becoming A Two-Horse Race? If Warner gets Bond the overall price is higher, if EON says no to producing Bond with Warner the overall price is lower. In fact with the exception of The Big Trail you cannot find Wayne’s 30’s films @ Fox. In fact, based on what Netflix paid, the $73b Disney purchase of 20th Century Fox looks like a bargain. Apple actually buys Disney for Apple/Disney Merger. Turner kept the pre-May 1986 film, tv show, and cartoon library (including Tom & Jerry, and The Wizard of Oz) which is currently distributed by Warner Bros. 5: Disney. MGM has been up for sale since December 2020. Twitter: Twitter.com/RogPalmerUK Jio Free Talk Time Offer: Enjoy 300 Minutes Per Month Without Recharge! But many of the shows even the successful ones like Medical Center and Green Acres have not been seen in decades. 1: UA Library ( especially Pink Panther ( films and cartoons)). What Movies & Shows Will Be On Disney+ Star. Clyde the single biggest problem that I have had with Universal down though the years is the fact that they have kept their vault shut. Clyde: I do not put it past Warner to find a way to acquire the campy 60’s Batman series. Even later films like The Comancheros and North To Alaska ( not to mention early stuff like The Big Trail and the rarities like Arizona) could get the vault treatment ( like Stakeout ( not to mention Song Of The South)) unless sold or swapped for Disney type films like Chitty Chitty Bang Bang or the silent version of Peter Pan ( a Paramount film Paramount still owns and was not sold to Universal). Although, WarnerMedia and NBCUniversal Should Be Merged as WarnerUniversal before they take a chance to buy MGM. I would not be the least bit shocked if Warner already has a deal in place to not only distribute but actually acquire at least part of the library ( non Bond films and Pink Panther ( that cartoon is I would imagine is something that is high on their want list)). Another Cooper film ( The Spoilers) is another film stuck in the vault for 90 years. I am really looking forward to Kong versus Godzilla ( another Warner movie). WarnerMedia should buy MGM before WarnerMedia and NBCUniversal merger, not after, not without MGM. If that movie gets released by MGM, you can bet on Warner getting Bond. When all is said and done with the possible exception of Bond and recent films, Warner will own the entire library between now and 2029. Also David Brown Disney Plus has a lot of classic films and a few classic tv shows from the golden age of hollywood, and is a good streaming service. Does it mean all reboots are bad? I knew AT&T & Comcacst Would spin off WarnerMedia & NBCUniversal for Warner/Universal merger. One obvious example is this: If they want to dump the East Side Kids and Cannon library on Warner, they sweeten the pot and throw in the Bronson UA Films, the five Eastwood films and the Warner three. What is really interesting is they took the time and money to actually do it. If I can get $500m (which Netflix offered ( or more) I grab it ( unless I think I am making Avatar type money off of it ( which is doubtful ( especially because this only involves North American rights) or Warner actually has an agreement to end up with all MGM films before the contract ends in 2029 and that includes No Time To Die. So both companies actually worked together to remaster them ( although Warner owns them). It would instantly be a boost for Netflix, Amazon, Apple, Comcast, WarnerMedia or Disney to gain control over these titles and IP, which will undoubtedly start a bidding war between the companies over this valuable studio. Look at what Netflix paid for two sequels of Knives Out? I do think something involving MGM has to happen quickly because the new Bond film is sitting on the shelf gathering dust ( and losing value), but if Warner ( or for that matter Universal) does not end up with MGM, the merger idea becomes more and more possible. Disney is perfectly fine without MGM. Yes. MGM is one of Hollywood's most famous studios, with its Leo the Lion logo and an almost century-long history. These include Our Gang/Little Rascals and East Side Kids and early Bowery Boys ( which completes the library for Warner). And now that AT&AT has recently decided to club their WarnerMedia assets with Discovery to create a new player in the streaming space, it wouldn’t be too surprising if Amazon and MGM make the deal! Disney Warnermedia owns Castle Rock and MGM owns every pre 1994 Castle Rock film Required fields are marked *. Warner should also try to get the Pre-1994 Castle Rock Entertainment film library since they own the films made in 1994 and after, I forgot to put that the shows I mentioned can stay WarnerMedia. Well Bob you’re a hypocrite yourself considering you don’t want Apple (a tech company) to buy the company. Content https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer_(Studio_d'animation) They now control that distribution pact and they can use the films for TCM. I do not expect every film of MGM or Warner to pop up. By the way even Public Domain films can be remastered if you hold an original copy ( On IMDB I wrote about a film called To The Last Man with Randolph Scott and Shirley Temple and how you can see the difference between The Metropolitan Museum Of Art copy and Public Domain). 2. Sony Pictures. MGM’s asset library consists of 4,000 films and 17,000 hours worth of television shows. Was Apple-Disney merger the best option. Why? I don't care that Disney is richer than Warnermedia, But AT&T is more richer than disney. Sadly the major problem for MGM is they aren’t in control of their crown jewel that is Bond. After hearing this news i was thinking the same thing, and your right if Disney buys MGM it would be a huge boost to both Disney+ and Hulu but let's not forget Disney and MGM already have a history with each other. I will admit this I love the quality of the logo and that they gave the English translation for Ars Gratia Artis, but I’m somewhat bothered over Leo the Lion being completely cg eventually I’ll get used to it, and I really love the new Warner Bros logo, it shows a beautiful view of the Warner Bros studio, as well as the Warner Bros water tower, the Warner Bros logo having a nice blue makeover, while staying true to it’s original shield form, and I’m glad they kept the incredible 1999 WB fanfare. The most important part is under Warner Libraries you see MGM post 1986 and UA pre 1986 ( both expected), but pre 1950 is listed separately. The Walt Disney Company has made some major purchases including buying Marvel for $4 billion, Lucasfilm for $4 billion, Pixar for $7.4 billion and $71 billion for 20th Century Fox. They have a history together, and 20th Century (Fox) Studios as well. SHUCKS!!!!!!! The answer is a big NO. They went to Paramount to ask permission, and not only did Paramount say yes, but they asked if they can help Warner with this. The acquisition of WarnerMedia by AT&T took place on June 15, 2018. They really do not want MGM. The 70s is when I think the studio really shines with movies like Chinatown, The Godfather 1 and 2, The Conversation, Death Wish, Charlotte’s Web, Grease, and more. Alright I guess Vikings can go to Comcast as well (especially since Warner has Game of Thrones), but Warner should at least keep both the 60s original and the 90s remake of The Outer limits it’s basically United Artists’ The Twilight Zone, but with more Sci-fi. But they know they have to take garbage in order to accomplish this.pre 1950 UA is simply the first step. But trust me, this is not the last big merger coming. The rest? You can watch those films and see where they need clean-up. This site includes affiliate links. The price will be less then $5.5b regardless of who buys MGM. 1. Last but not least later Monogram (Warner Owned). Well did you know that it MGM was originally supposed to have the Spider-Man film rights? It makes too much sense not to. The acquisition of BigBasket by Tata Group could now be concluded without any hiccups. Ben: MGM will NOT become a joint venture between Amazon and Apple. 3. Lionsgate is more known for original or adapted movies, and not really franchises, (with Hunger Games and Rambo being the few exceptions) as well as Lionsgate only co producing movies with Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer once in 2012 whereas Warner Bros. co produced movies with them many times since 1977. The problems are . Although I would be shocked if any MGM deal would work this way because it makes too much sense. Disney who puts disclaimers on the Muppets and locks Song of the South in the vault for PC reasons. Here's who might be buying. It is just another clue that MGM is not being sold ( at least not the non library part of it). Nor are the Hal Roach Little Rascals films ( the most valuable part of that library). This will especially make sense for WarnerMedia’s potential acquisition of the MGM film studio because my dream wish is to have every show and movie owned by WarnerMedia on HBO Max. Until then, stay tuned. We have a great online selection at the lowest prices with Fast & Free shipping on many items! Maybe when Warner buys MGM they can put that film on HBO Max? Just those two series have value to Warner. Apple and Amazon. Hollywood studio MGM puts itself up for sale at $5bn. Adding Stargate would really add up to Warner’s small but high quality sci fi library of films and shows including 2001: A Space Odyssey, Babylon 5, the Blade Runner franchise, and The first Matrix film (the sequels suck in my opinion). I have been thinking about the library, and one thing that is very important about the MGM distribution deal with Warner is it is for 10 years which gives Warner a long time to acquire the MGM library. They also had stars like William Powell, Jean Arthur, George Raft, and Randolph Scott early in their careers. I’m not even sure if it’s a good idea for WarnerMedia and NBCUniversal to merge I would rather have WarnerMedia purchasing MGM than it merging with NBCUniversal. Sony and Columbia are still out in the cold, perhaps Netflix, Apple, could make a play for them. The studio believes its library of content — which includes co … If they will do that to those films I can easily see them doing that to Fox R-Rated Content. I understand the majority of the ones I mentioned are not relevant, but it’ll still be nice to at least have some of them under one roof (maybe on HBO Max for a change). 1: James Bond ( including Warner’s Never Say Never Again). As for the Paramount films, Universal has had them since the 1950’s. Yes that will mean that all of the Rankin Bass film and tv library will be under 1 roof (the pre-1974 Rankin-Bass library is owned by Universal Pictures via DreamWorks Animation's DreamWorks Classics subsidiary, while Warner Bros. owns the rights to the post-1974 library via Telepictures), but there will also be layoffs, more divisions being shut down or sold to other companies, less competition in the entertainment industry, and a potential monopoly (as if Disney’s 21st Century Fox acquisition wasn’t already bad enough). In a bid to increase the diversification of its offerings, Flipkart is all set to acquire a 100% stake in Cleartrip! October, but yeah I’m disappointed that it’s delayed once again, and that MGM is losing more money than ever. Speaking of Universal Disney should also buy The Hulk character from Universal and both of the Hulk films (including the crappy 2003 film). MGM doesn't really have a lot that Disney would want. There are only two players: Apple and WB. Can I Download Movies & Shows On Disney+ ? 3: Cannon Library. As for MGM, I want to see Warner end up with the library, for one primary reason: They do not shove their films into the vault like Comcast and others do. Here's the proof, Comcast and AT&T should merge their NBCUniversal and WarnerMedia media divisions and create one of the largest producers of television and movies, according to a report from media research firm LightShed Management Partners. My bet is on MGM releasing No Time To Die, and all future Bond films will be released by Warner. They signed a If either one of those companies really wanted MGM they would have spent the money to buy MGM ( and that especially means No Time To Die, which would have been a nice marketing tool). Warnermedia needs to announce the acquisition of MGM Holdings for $5 billion. Not to mention, the additional profits from James Bond (if as I strongly suspect) they get his rights as well. This is the kind of movie that only Warner ( because of TCM) will ever show. As far as the TV series and cartoon is concerned, they would keep them if only to prevent a competitor from making a movie off of them. On Thursday, the Walmart-owned... Microsoft is all set to shell out a pretty penny to acquire the company responsible for developing Siri's A.I. Anyone who wants or needs or can afford a studio lot with sound states, producers buildings, props, etc. Why? They also made the cheap looking Dorothy and the Wizard of Oz on Boomerang, as well as planning to remake the 1939 film with New line cinema. This will also satisfy the regulators demands. Daniel Craig and Ana de Armas in "No Time to Die." They take the time and more important money to remaster films ( whenever necessary) so they are restored to as close to their original condition as possible ( that is especially Important with noir films because much of them are filmed at night or in limited light. There is a complete lack of originality coming out of Hollywood. My point was Amazon, Apple and especially Sony ( check out the trash they run on Sony Movie Channel) could have used the MGM library. Not only does he almost always play the same character, but he always has on a white tee shirt on. I guarantee that if Disney buys Columbia you will see a Warner/Universal merger. I certainly want Warner to buy MGM, but if they do not I am all for a merger with Universal. And as one must already have guessed, MGM’s James Bond films is one of the most valuable franchises ever made, a list which however fails to compete with that of Disney’s umbrella and the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Warner Bros has worked with MGM multiple times on many films I also forgot to mention The Pink Panther spin offs, and the 60s and 90s The Outer Limits shows for Warner to keep everything else can just be sold to a different company. They even have stuff guys can enjoy ( not just Harley Quinn type trash). As for Robocop there is little doubt that Warner would be happy to take the films. MGM Holdings Inc. is exploring a sale, according to a source close to the situation. The World has moved on from Bond, how much more so in a post pandemic world. It is not well known but Spencer Tracy started out at Fox and his Fox films are impossible to find ( including Goldie which is one of the few Jean Harlow films to have eluded me). It was in the vault for 90 years. Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer has made films with Warner Bros They will use HBO Max for newer Warner Bros films, original programming, MGM content ( Especially series like Rocky/Creed) and maybe Universal ( if Comcast re-ups with HBO). 2: Disney. So knock $100 million off that Bond doesn’t look too healthy. P.S Sony also puts movies on HBO Max which I like better than Disney+. If I was Amazon or Apple ( who have money to burn) I would have bought MGM before Warner got a hold of the library. If the $5.5b price were agreed to, then MGM would have already been sold ( $5.5b is chump change for Amazon and Apple). Thankfully they didn’t because if they people site that as a reason for Disney to buy MGM, also they’re take probably would not be as good as Sony’s take and even if they’re take would’ve been as good as Sony’s they probably would’ve neglect Spidey and the film rights would’ve already been Disney’s. That is one thing I am really looking forward to. Why is the MGM Library so important ( even more important then Bond)? Singing in the Rain would make for great edition to the Disney+ library. That NBCUniversal and WarnerMedia merger would be just as bad if not worse than Disney buying 21st Century Fox. This after announcing a new Tomb Raider movie. For Warner the priorities are likely this order. The most valuable MGM pieces are as follows. Also Sex and the City isn't that bad, and it’s pretty decent. 2: There is a clear interest ( based on Warner getting the home video rights). I suspect the same thing applies to AIP ( Beach movies to get the 15 films Vincent Price made at AIP plus Roger Corman movies), same thing for Cannon ( take Alien In LA for Missing In Action). Look what Hollywood is doing rebooting Punky Brewster ( I never saw it when it originally came out), or Sex And The City ( I saw that show twice and it remains my most hated TV show in history). The only MGM IPs Disney will care about is Bond, (which MGM does not own 100%) and maybe Pink Panther. There are other MGM shows that I like that can go to Comcast as well like Vikings for example. Comcast’s NBCUniversal has not only Peacock, but also a minority stake in Hulu. 3: Pink Panther ( including cartoon). The latest Bond film is being delayed until November ( at best). Even Marilyn Monroe films like Bus Stop are unavailable ( even on Fox Movie Channel). Anyone want to bet they are paying attention at AT&T ( Warner HQ) and Comcast ( Universal HQ)? Forget the merger, warnermedia should purchase mgm. Hell no WarnerMedia/AT&T is far more deserving of MGM than Disney, Hell no Warnermedia/ AT&T is a much better option for MGM than Disney for 5 reasons Reliance Retail Is The Second Fastest Growing Retailer In The World With 55.1% CAGR [Report].
