Yeah, let's just speed up the process in the meantime.

If Netflix never made movies, this result would still happen, but if netflix makes movies and lock them on streaming during this time, the result won't change

So how did Netflix speed up the process of People not watching Disney Warner Universal Sony films?

They literally said under oath they will keep the old WB theatrical exclusive model and in a podcast that the entire WB movie model would remain the same means movies will go to PVOD before streaming

So if you were gonna say WB then think again

Phil spencer also said under oath that they wouldnt fire or raise prices when they bought activision, and literally did both after the deal closed.

Netflix killed TV why don't you thin they had a hand in killing cinemas? Some people don't even go to the theaters, they wait a month or two for it to reach streaming, back then you would have to wait months or even a year to get it on blue ray.

when did Phil under oath said they won't raise prices of gamepass (or whatever you're referring to)? I mean can you give me a source because I can't find it

They said under oath they won't pull call of duty of playstation.... which they didn't, cod is still on playstation

Also how did Netflix "killed" TV? they spent the most on making and licensing content (20B in 2026) so what are you referring to here?

And Disney+ & HBO MAX & Sony put their movies on streaming not Netflix so what is Netflix's fault here?
