Why invest in creativity and hard work when I can produce a fraction of the content with a fraction of the quality at a fraction of the cost? It’s a foolproof plan. Nothing can go wrong!

These are more than canceled cartoons, it's the lives of THOUSANDS of people being affected by one decision.

We here at Warner Bros. Discovery understand that what makes content successful is the IP it’s a part of, not the talented storytellers that work hard to bring it to life. Greta wasn’t important to the success of Barbie; she wasn’t even nominated at the Oscars! #EyeRoll #Barbie

[ScreenTime @screentime]

Warner Bros reportedly want to make a 'BARBIE' sequel with or without Greta Gerwig

This is the way to do things! If a piece of media doesn't speak to me, David Zaslav, it couldn't possibly reach a wider audience — I'm what you could call the "default American." More studios need their content to cater to the broadest experience possible.

[DiscussingFilm @DiscussingFilm]

Pixar is now focusing on films with “clear mass appeal” with less focus on directors’ “autobiographical tales” like ‘Luca’ and ‘Turning Red’

“The studio’s movies should be less a pursuit of any director’s catharsis & instead speak to a commonality of experience”

I sincerely apologize; I did not mean to post the previous Tweets. That was a private thought meant for a different account, mistakenly posted by my secretary Sharon. The employee in question has been terminated. I would kindly ask you to scrub it from the record.

[David Zaslav #MaxGetsParodies @David__Zaslav]

I wish we didn’t have to cater to degeneracy, but here we are. #EyeRoll

[David Zaslav #MaxGetsParodies @David__Zaslav]

Sharon, which account am I in?

[David Zaslav #MaxGetsParodies @David__Zaslav]

Michelle, could you come in here please? Google’s not working again.

[David Zaslav #MaxGetsParodies @David__Zaslav]

Google, is it normal to find Tom Cruise attractive?

[David Zaslav #MaxGetsParodies @David__Zaslav]

Google, is it normal to find Tom Cruise attractive? I am a heterosexual adult man.

[David Zaslav #MaxGetsParodies @David__Zaslav]

This was a total mistake on our part, we promise! The perpetrator—a minimum wage employee in charge of scouring the internet for any whiff of copyright infringement—has been taken care of. We have now hired a new worker to be more careful when striking down harmless fan works.

[DiscussingFilm @DiscussingFilm]

Warner Bros has lifted the copyright strike from ‘THE HUNT FOR GOLLUM’ fan film, which they claim was done in error.

[David Zaslav #MaxGetsParodies @David__Zaslav]

@jennifriendwrit Correct. This summer, you will now be able to stream through our unique bundle, meaning you won't have to subscribe directly to Disney+. Combining multiple channels in one place and charging consumers high prices for the entire package has never been done before!

[David Zaslav #MaxGetsParodies @David__Zaslav]

Disney has long dominated family-friendly media, with content appropriate for all ages. At Warner Bros. Discovery, we thought there was no better streaming partner. Mickey Mouse goes hand-in-hand with shows from the entire HBO catalogue, like Game of Thrones, The Wire, and more!

[DiscussingFilm @DiscussingFilm]

Disney and Warner Bros will team up to start a new streaming bundle that includes Disney+, Hulu and Max.

Arriving this Summer in the U.S.

[David Zaslav #MaxGetsParodies @David__Zaslav]

This looks like an intriguing money-making scheme; could this be scaled to a large media corporation? I'm always searching for alternate forms of revenue. Earnings growth is my passion!

[David Zaslav #MaxGetsParodies @David__Zaslav]

What kind of cut-rate journalism is this? Just because we're sending out promotional material for the film doesn't mean we plan on releasing it, @DiscussingFilm. At Warner Bros. Discovery, we understand that media can be destroyed at any part of the production process.

[DiscussingFilm @DiscussingFilm]

New look at ‘THE DAY THE EARTH BLEW UP: A LOONEY TUNES MOVIE’.

It is the first-ever fully animated Looney Tunes feature-length movie to be released in theaters.

[David Zaslav #MaxGetsParodies @David__Zaslav]

I've been trying to get Jimmy to interview me for ages, but the producers keep saying things about "entertainment value" and "relatability to target audiences." Clearly he needs a better team; I didn't get this far in my career by catering to what audiences want! #ShakingMyHead

[David Zaslav #MaxGetsParodies @David__Zaslav]

This show is witty and insightful, with a lot of heart. It made me “LOL.” That Minty Kaling is a bright young lady, and I have no doubt we’ll see her star ascend even higher in the future from her humble beginnings on @StreamOnMax. #Velma #Talent

The ten-episode second season of the Max Original adult animated series Velma from @WB_Animation debuts Thursday, April 25: https://t.co/mzE9dSIyqx

Why would we keep a news outlet in a country that’s not even on the map? “SMH.”

[Newshub ENT @NewshubENT]

WBD confirms Newshub will close in early July, no deal for external production https://t.co/7AcXOuXN8F

[David Zaslav #MaxGetsParodies @David__Zaslav]

What has Francis Ford Coppola ever done? I see no reason to trust his directing skills on an expansive original project like this. Maybe I’ll consider giving him a DC film. Or perhaps the Wonka sequel?

[The Hollywood Reporter @THR]

Francis Ford Coppola's self-funded epic #Megalopolis is deemed too “experimental” and “not good” enough for the $100 million marketing spend envisioned by the legendary director. It's not clear if a studio will pick the film up https://t.co/Tujk3vaOM4

[David Zaslav #MaxGetsParodies @David__Zaslav]

Why is everyone making such a big deal over @wbd shelving a film based on the brand most closely associated with our studio? I thought copyright striking the crew reel would calm things, but I guess people didn’t like us removing fun, happy, personal content made by crew members.

[DiscussingFilm @DiscussingFilm]

A crew reel for ‘COYOTE VS ACME’ has been released by a crew member following the film being shelved for a $30M tax write-off.
