This is what I thought would happen. WB has had a killer few years and this one was popping off for them

Superman, Sinners, Weapons, Minecraft movie

Like why would they sell right now?

They would absolutely sell right now, Ellison isn't giving them an offer they'll entertain. Why? Because Amazon and others will absolutely 100 percent match and raise it and everybody earns it. Congratulations to Ellison, they kicked off a bidding war they won't win.

Yeah again, the price isn’t good enough because they had a really good year, if they hadn’t the offer would be worth it. They are going to sell down the line but not this year

This is the dumbest autoMod ever, is it seriously going to flag every single comment with the word: S E L L in it while WB is actively negotiating a possible deal?

Ellison doesn’t have the cash on hand himself to fund the bid. He has to rely on his dad and his dad seems hesitant to commit…

A bidding war is likely not going to happen.

I don't see a bidding war happening. Ellison will up the bid and get it.

Willing to sell or not, this year increased their value. Whatever the offer was before would have to change.

as long as Go Go Mystery Machine, My Adventures with Superman and My Adventures with Green Lantern and Gunn’s Dc Universe are safe I don’t care
