I wanted to use the original source but it's also a paid subscription thing and I couldn't get it so I guess The Irish Times will have to do.

Wow!
Just the scope of a 90s startup in a garage company looking to buy out a bastion of Hollywood is mind boggling

Something something well it isn't Disney at least something.
But really, WarnerMedia didn't even try? I mean it's not like they don't have half of MGM's library.

We're inching closer and closer to all media being owned by like six or seven companies.

It's actually worse in music, literally 90% of the record industry is owned by one of three companies, Warner, Sony or Universal, with Universal controlling 55% of the industry by itself. You think of a major label, or vanity label or even large independent label from the past seventy years, and chances are it's now owned by one of those three.

50 year from now there will only be five companies: Amazon, Disney, Google, Apple, and Impact Wrestling.

Yep there is a fresh new logo. And it doesn't look that bad.* And you finally officially learn what the slogan on the ribbons means in English. * - Still better CGI than Lion King '19, am I right??

And to think, 3 years later this already needs some more revisions.

While some people will look at the big ticket franchises MGM has, I look at their B-Tier and lower movie library. And there are a lot of gems in there, I think that is my favorite part of MGM.

Bad choice by Amazon. MGM is cursed and seems to bring ruin on whoever tries to make them not bankrupt.
