I know Zaslav is probably going to be leaving to join Discovery Global once it gets split off into it's own thing and he won't have any say on anything WB related after that, so hopefully Netflix will see the value in releasing these films.
Just to head this off at the pass those films were not "Deleted" permanently like some people ignorantly claim, just removed from local servers, copies do still exist in the vaults so they can prove to the IRS "Yes we still have a copy and we're not releasing it for profit so you can't tax us". But i'd be interested to see Netflix release the films to streaming and argue that since they aren't charging actual upfront money for the films that technically they aren't actually making a profit on the films therefore they should not have to pay a free over it. I'm curious if anyone with legal knowledge thinks an argument like that would actually hold up in court. I sure hope so, because those films deserve to be seen dammit.
I'm also curious what this means for that cancelled Scooby animated film "Haunted High Rise"? Apparently it was fully story-boarded and voice-acted but animation was not finished at the time it got cancelled(apparently that DC Scooby crossover film almost got written off for taxes until it got leaked which kinda forced WB's hand and made it so they HAD to give it an official release)I'm hoping it can get finished somehow because I wanted to see the Hex Girls again goddamnit.
Either way i'm just glad WB isn't in the hands of the Ellison's.
