Acquisition of Warner Bros by Universal is in talks and drawing attention across Hollywood this morning. As we see past year especially entertainment industry is going though a significant transformation, with a huge shift towards video games and streaming platforms. Entities like Disney who owns Pixar, EA, Lucasfilms and Marvel, Comcast who owns Universal Pictures, Sony, ViacomCBS who owns Paramount Pictures, Amazon who is acquiring MGM, Alphabet that owns YouTube, Facebook that owns Instagram, Apple, Tencent, and Alibaba will dominate will dominate the space and are to dominate market in next few years, it's substantial market share, influencing content creation, distribution, and platform development of all kinds and types. That's why Warner Bros., with its most incredible transmedia portfolio including Warner Games, DC Comics, and HBO/MAX, brings more than just content to the table; it brings a multifaceted approach to entertainment across various platforms. Universal will likely integrate Warner Bros.’ IPs into its existing operations, creating new collaborative projects and expanded Transmedia IP universes. Given Warner Bros.' adept management of its IPs and streaming services, Universal will probably build around Warner’s organizational structure, leveraging its well-managed IPs and streaming platform. Universal potentially utilize Warner Bros.’ IPs for creating expanded metaverse, theme parks and other ventures, initiating innovative projects while possibly disrupting ongoing ones. Butt I see how this deal rising lots of questions regarding strategic alignment, financial stability, and industry monopolization concerns, with the perspectives of Warner Bros. employees future in this potential industry REDEFINITION, where film, gaming, and streaming converge into a unified, immersive entertainment experience, with the integrated management of IPs and platforms at its core. Where film will not be the core of the business, where more layoffs to come. #transmedia #videogamesindustry #contentcreation #ai #warnerbros #universalpictures #hollywoodnews #entertainmentbiiz #filmindustry #merger #acquisition #ip #rransmediaip #intellectualproperty #dcuniverse #hbo #entertainmentindustry #streamingservices #mediaconglomerates #industrymonopolization #globalizationn #contentdistribution #disney
