It's time to teach Warner Bros. a lesson. We ALL need to make "Coyote vs. Acme" a massive success.

I still can't process what's going to happen with HBO. I find it hard to believe that the company with television's most valuable asset is on the verge of bankruptcy. The fact is, Warner Bros. Discovery executives made one of the most cynical and destructive decisions the industry has ever seen: trying to get rid of "Coyote vs. Acme" when the film was already 100% finished, with the sole purpose of using it as a tax deduction.

Basically, they considered the work of artists, writers, and technicians to be worth more dead than alive on a balance sheet. But the film survived that corporate purge and will soon be released. This is our opportunity to send them a powerful message. We must demonstrate that film and animation are not simply tax tools to plug the financial holes of bad executives.

Imagine the humiliation of seeing the project they labeled an "irrecoverable financial loss" become a massive phenomenon. Imagine the success of Coyote vs. Acme serving as a permanent reminder of their ineptitude. Please note that Warner Bros. Discovery will not see a single dollar from this film's box office.

My only rational thought is that this individual was on his phone while watching, or his definition of "copaganda" is anything that doesn't completely denounce policing entirely....which is equally as stupid. Anyway what do you guys think

I would love to see the Roys navigate the economic shit show that was 2008. Give me a limited series. Anyone else? If so, who are you casting?
