The Issue

Netflix is notorious for hiking its prices every year, often resulting in customers paying more while receiving less. This streaming giant has an unfortunate track record of limiting and even cancelling beloved movies and shows, leaving fans disappointed and underserved. If Netflix were to acquire Warner Bros, the landscape of entertainment could change dramatically, and not for the better.

Imagine a world where movie theaters, once the magical places where we gathered to experience cinema, no longer exist because Netflix prioritizes its streaming platform over theatrical releases. The charm and excitement of a theater experience could become a thing of the past, denied to future generations.

Moreover, the traditional revenue streams for filmmakers and performers would shrink significantly. Movies might get pulled from theaters after a mere 30 days to ensure exclusive streaming on Netflix, potentially stifling the earnings and exposure that actors, directors, and producers rely on. The ripple effect on the industry would be profound, affecting jobs and creativity.

Why are we allowing tech companies or streamers to purchase these iconic studios and disrupt an industry that so many of us cherish? It's not just about business; it's about preserving our culture and celebrating artistic expression.

This isn't the future I want for entertainment, and I urge you to consider the broader implications of such a massive shift in power. It's time to take a stand against this potential sale and protect the essence of moviemaking and storytelling.

By signing this petition, you're voicing your opposition to the sale of Warner Bros to Netflix and advocating for the preservation of our beloved entertainment industry. Let's keep the magic of theaters alive and ensure that our favorite movies and shows have the space to thrive.
