The Paramount and Warner Bros merger is officially on hold.
The merger will not move forward until June 1, 2027 OR until the courts provide a ruling on the lawsuits facing the merger.
A judge has ordered a temporary halt to the Paramount-Warner Bros. merger:
• A state coalition argued the merger would violate federal antitrust law, leading to higher prices and fewer movies and TV shows
• If the deal has not closed by Sept. 30, Paramount will start to owe millions of dollars a day to Warner Bros. investors

I Rewatched “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly” (1966) on Blu-ray. It had been two years since the 4K revival screening in 2024. Then I finally watched “Sad Hill Unearthed” (2017) on Blu-ray, which I had bought but never opened. It completely moved me to tears. A timeless presence that continues to shape people’s lives. That is exactly what art is, and what cinema is.
Melania Trump says Jimmy Kimmel should be canceled. Last week her husband commented on Robert Mueller’s death: “Good. I”m glad he’s dead.”
Said Pretty much the same about my old friend Rob Reiner.
