    As an adorer of Netflix originals, how much my family loves Seinfeld and with Henry Sugar as a Wes Anderson admirer, I wouldn’t mind this; it may even dissolve my dissatisfaction with how Netflix typically lacks consistency as opposed to Prime Video, Apple TV and even Hulu.

    Don't forget they'll also own Hanna-Barbera, Animaniacs, Cartoon Network, Rankin-Bass (post-Sept. 1974) and DC as a whole. And they'll also own the pre-May 1986 MGM library (not just Wizard of Oz, but also Tom and Jerry, Westworld, Poltergeist, Christmas Story, How the Grinch Stole Christmas, etc.)

    Considering that Zack Snyder's "Rebel Moon" is a Netflix original, I wonder if some of his other material, such as "300," "Legend of the Guardians" and even both "Man of Steel" and "Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice" would all appear on Netflix thanks to the WB merger.

    And yes, all the Snyder fanatics would go absolutely bonkers.

    The one thing that I’m really hoping for is on Netflix they will add every Cartoon Network and Hanna-Barbera cartoon on their platform since they made the foolish decision of removing it off of HBOMAX. Hopefully add shows like Ed, Edd, n Eddy and Close Enough on there

    Well, considering how I don’t have HBO Max, now called Max, I’m actually happy that this happened. Netflix used to be THE streaming service for movies like WB, Disney, AND Marvel back in the 2010s. So, I’m glad that this deal is made, if it gets finalized. Heck, Godzilla: King of the Monsters is ON Netflix right now.
