To: Warner Bros. Discovery Leadership, U.S. Regulators, Industry Stakeholders, and Global Film Fans

For over a century, Warner Bros has been more than just a studio.
It has been a home for storytellers, dreamers, innovators, and generations of audiences who grew up inspired by its magic.

This studio gave us stories that shaped our childhoods, our morals, our friendships, even our dreams.
From Gotham City’s darkness to Hogwarts’ warmth, from the deserts of Arrakis to the chaos of Looney Tunes — Warner Bros didn’t just entertain us.
It raised us.

And now, this legacy stands at a fragile moment.

Corporate pressure, debt from decisions made long ago, and an industry obsessed with numbers instead of stories have pushed Warner Bros toward the edge — toward possible sell-offs, breakups, or takeover by corporations who see films not as art but as “content buckets.”

If this happens, something sacred will be lost.

Why This Matters to Us
A studio like Warner Bros is not just a business transaction.
It’s a cultural landmark — as important as a great library, a museum, or a temple of art.

When companies with no emotional stake take over such a legacy, the soul of the place dims.
Stories become safer, smaller, flatter.
Creativity bows to spreadsheets.
Characters become products instead of symbols.

And the worlds we grew up with start to feel… hollow.

This petition is not about money.
It’s about preserving wonder.

What We Are Asking For

We simply ask for one thing:

Keep Warner Bros whole.
Keep it independent.
Keep it free from corporate carving and takeover.

Let the people who love movies — the artists, the writers, the animators, the dreamers — keep steering the ship.

Let the legacy survive without being swallowed or dismantled.

Let future generations experience the same magic we did.

✍️ Sign This Petition

Sign if you believe that some things are too important to be sold off.

Sign if you believe that stories matter.
That art matters.
That the studios that shaped our lives deserve more than to be passed around like financial luggage.

Let’s protect the shield.
Let’s protect the legacy.
Let’s protect the last great home of cinematic imagination.

Save Warner Bros.
