  • Paramount Global's exclusive merger talks with suitor Skydance ended with an offer on the table that angered Paramount shareholders. Now the entertainment giant is considering whether to accept a competing offer from Sony and Apollo. But could the indebted Paramount end up with no deal at all? And where did it all go wrong for the firm? To answer these questions and more, we're joined by entertainment journalist KJ Matthews in LA.

      Jar Jar Abrams already took Star Trek to the wood shed and his apprentice Kurtzman, who is currently in charge of the franchise, brags that he had never seen an episode of Star Trek before writing scripts for the JJ movies. That's why projects he's directly involved in are vapid, meaningless action-packed drivel with ultimate galactic stakes and no thought. Newest Disco season is trying hard to be Star Wars, but not even good Star Wars, Episode 9 at its worst only a whole season long.

    This is Paramount trying to devalue itself and it's doing a good job to become a fancy dish for Sony and Apollo.
    Sony gets Paramount Pictures along with the film and music copyrights, Apollo gets the rights to sell CBS, MTV, and Nickelodeon to other companies.
    Japan's business presence is once again becoming slightly improved in America.

    All you have to do is watch any episode of Star Trek: Discovery and you'll see they spent way too much on special effects but have sh*t writers who forget things they wrote earlier in the same episode. Then look at the last season of Picard, the first two were trash but the last season got fans back more than any of their projects in a decade, yet a 4th season or spin-off has yet to be greenlit. Whomever's running things there(Kurtzman) doesn't know what they're doing and keeps digging the money-hole deeper. Who would ever want to give them more cash or buy them when they're under tens of billions in debt with no idea how to get out of it?
