Still On Preseservation!

 

    Ladies and gentlemen,  and update concerning this post from a few years ago.

https://h8l0v.blogspot.com/2022/08/preservation.html

     To summarize my thoughts, this post was about the preservation of media, and needing to keep these images in one's mind. The reason I brink this up again, is because Warner Bros is unfortunately, at it again. This time however, they're not just planning on not releasing the movies, but deleting them entirely! As you can imagine, there's been a bit of an upset for the viewers, and one can't blame them. After all, when such a big fuss was made when they weren't released, for a fairly ridiculous reason mind you, the fact we may never see them is even more frustrating!

     So to reiterate, media must be preserved for future generations! Record it, catalog it, whatever, so long as it's preserved. Especially if it is a movie an entire team put blood and sweat into, that won't be released because of ridiculous legal issues. So with that in mind, I hope Warner Bros. Gets the message soon, because even if the most we get is someone making ridiculous edits with the material, at least it's still out there. Thank you for reading this shorter blog, and stay tuned!

       If by the chance this material is deleted by the time this post has been uploaded, I will update it with an edit, and I apologize. 

The Warner Discovery Debacle

    So, first I would like to apologize if I am a little late to the subject. However, I would like to also chime in that the Warned Bros. and Discovery merger has been an awful mess of shattering dreams, and a demonstration of incompetence. In case you haven't heard, recently the two companies have merged, and are now making some questionable decisions. Namely, cancelling movies like Batgirl, the Scoob! holiday special, etc. While they did that, they're also pulling a lot of animated content from HBO Max, TV channels. and just not offering physical copies.

       Now, from what I've seen, these cancellations are the result of two reasons. A debt that they're paying off with tax write-offs, and the new president just 'not getting it.' In other words, the wrong people have been put in charge, and just don't care enough to make money on these properties. I mean, if I don't have any reason to get HBO Max now, because a lot of the shows I want to watch are gone, why would I get a subscription,  or think of keeping one?

      This has been a bad time for enthusiasts of these properties. Not to mention for animation, as it already gets too much flack as is. I want to say I hope things get better, but that's not enough. Keep your support up for the right people in this industry guys! A small amount can go a long way!

Apologies for interrupting the flow of my blogs. The continuation to the last will be out soon.

Author's note: So, it's at least a few days after I initially finished this, and just a quick update. The work that was done for the Batgirl movie was deleted right before it could be salvaged. I don't know what to say at this point, this is downright infuriating. Even if the movie didn't wind up being good, deleting what was left shows this CEO is just being a total control freak.
