Comments

  1. Elin: kind of expected this from Skydance - now it's not just about the deal, but who gets stuck with the bill later
  2. Bruno: $1.8 billion? They expect the states and writers to bail them out so they can avoid paying ticking fees themselves?
  3. Adamr: seems like a pretty blatant attempt to shift the financial burden elsewhere
  4. Ghost Signal: This is just more PR spin from Paramount - how can they justify expecting states and writers to put up billions when their own valuation of the company is still unclear?
  5. Bianchiomar: what's the holdup if it's all gonna be one studio? should just cut through the red tape already
  6. Void Beacon: seems like Paramount is just trying to shift the responsibility to the states and WGA instead of actually addressing the issues with the merger timeline
  7. Dane: this seems like a cynical maneuver by the attorneys general - isn't this just an attempt to strangle their lawsuit with excessive cost?
