How does that work? I thought a movie had to be made within a certain timeframe in order to keep the rights or something like that.

AT&T has laid the gauntlet down at HBO. It will not be a passive acquisition.

It’s just stan ramblings. Do you ever see these guys actually post outside comic book film threads in this section?Yea since Disney/ Marvel have shown a great propensity to work with talented directors
(Coogler notwithstanding)
They have almost zero film knowledge and don’t know what they’re talking about. The guy your quoting wants people like Dennis villeneuve to make comic book films,but doesn’t have the brain capacity to realize directors of that stature would make comic book films he would hate. They would want to do their own thing and make huge sweepings changes from the source material because they’re auteurs not cog in the machine point and shoot directors like the Russo’s.
The Hollywood A list of directors isn’t running to marvel films. They want control and Marvel has already shown if you don’t play by their rules it won’t work. They have their own system and process but guys like Fincher,Nolan,Spielberg etc ain’t doing shyt with Marvel unless marvel allows them full control. Maybe one day marvel starts making one off elseworlds style movies then you’d definitely see some bigger names. Until then it’ll be the Peyton reed and James Gunn’s of the world with an occasional up and comer caught at the right time like a coogler.

AT&T needs to do a Warner Media Service.. not just HBO.. with Warner Media than can include the DC universe.. HBO and other warner movies.. maybe have 3-4 tiers.
1. basic warner content
2. 1 w/ hbo
3. 1&2 w/ dc universe..
in the future we'll have netflix, att/warner and disney streaming services.
This conversation between the HBO boss and the new ATT boss 
Mr. Plepler tried to pin down Mr. Stankey on the question of how much AT&T planned to invest. Without specifying any certain amount, Mr. Stankey said, “I do believe there needs to be stepped-up investment.”
Mr. Plepler interjected: “Let’s give him a hand for that simple sentence! That simple sentence deserves a hand!”
“Also,” Mr. Stankey said, “we’ve got to make money at the end of the day, right?”
“We do that,” Mr. Plepler responded, to scattered applause.
“Yes, you do,” Mr. Stankey said. “Just not enough.”
“Oh, now, now, be careful,” Mr. Plepler said.
Could be the beginning of the end of HBO as we know it. And they claimed for months they wouldn’t touch HBO.Mergers are fukking wack

Read the article. There is going to be a full reorganization. They didn't acquire Time Warner just to leave HBO alone and have it sitting there. Their content strategy is going to be impacted.
The people at AT&T do not understand media. They didn't when they acquired DirecTV and looking at the conversations at HBO, they don't now. Randall Stephenson is an idiot.
