We've all heard recently that WBD may be in talks to merge with Paramount (although negotiations are on shaky ground), and it seems other potential buyers are interested in acquiring the studio. However, the choices are decidedly not good.
Bobby Kotick is already in legal hot water for his terrible management of Activision, Skydance has the disgraced John Lasseter on their payroll, and RedBird... They haven't done anything horrible yet (at least to my knowledge), but it's a private equity firm, and acquisitions involving PEFs tend to go financially downhill. So yeah, none of these are good options.
Does anyone have any better options for Paramount's future?
