Have you guys seen the latest news about the ongoing consolidation in Hollywood? It feels like a bad déjà vu from the gaming industry, where massive studio mergers lead to layoffs and a fewer number of voices making games. Now, California's attorney general is stepping in to block Paramount's takeover of Warner Bros. Discovery, which could create a media giant that controls over 85% of wide-release films in the U.S. It's unsettling to think that this could lead to just a handful of companies dictating what's available to us, both as gamers and movie watchers. With all the mess we've seen in gaming, do you think there's a chance for a silver lining in all of this, or are we destined to keep watching as powerful players tighten their grip? What are your thoughts?
