After Paramount Skydance launched a hostile takeover bid of $108 billion to rival Netflix's $82 billion, it has now emerged that Netflix was outbid in a move for EA. I love Netflix's ambition, but I think they are pushing a little too hard. They will geeventually t a win abut WB seems to be a lost cause at this point.

That actually makes sense for Netflix, even if it looks messy from the outside. EA fits their long-term play way better than WB right now with all the games, live services, and IP that feeds directly into subscriptions. WB is a minefield of legacy baggage and politics.

I know, but then they have WB wrapped up now. They even have a motto for their victory lap.
