At least that's better than Sony buying them and breaking them up.

Now this one makes sense, they're responsible for VFX in the M:I films.

(Brad Bird directed some of them...)

Maybe Paramount should merge with Comcast/NBCUniversal, divesting themselves of the CBS Television division in order to satisfy those FCC anti-trust issues, since Comcast/NBCUniversal already owns NBC and Telemundo.

BOOO

That would've been the only merger that wouldn't have been met with backlash or at least it wouldn't be considered outlandish compared to the other merger proposals...

Oof. Maybe Paramount should lay off the mergers for a while since they keep dying.

Honestly I only hear about these mergers from SBMania, surprised I don't hear about them anywhere else though

SBMania is becoming my new news site now

I think they should hold off on future mergers, and instead, decide to break up these large companies, as monopolies have proven time and again to eliminate competition and drive up the cost of goods for consumers...
