Why Netflix buying Warner Bros shows who runs entertainment now

Netflix is a company that seems to be a titan in our current age. In its early days, it was just delivering DVDs and disrupting Blockbuster. Now it is making those movies and cutting out the physical media and even the theatrical release. Warner Bros, a company that once dominated the movie industry, is now under threat of being acquired by Netflix. This is a company that is entertainment now, and everyone is simply a vassal in the shadow of its influence. This is a company that Hollywood saw as an add-on to the power. Now they are the ones who are an add-on to Netflix.

While Netflix does not have the same quantity of movies now as it did in the past, but it does have the revenue and userbase. It is continuing to grow and is formidable in its loyalty and willingness to put with the unfriendly customer service that Netflix has. This is very important for them to be able to pursue these takeovers of once influential American companies. Netflix is now the leader of the entertainment industry and is peering into the world’s many thoughts and visions.

Can Outlander Blood of My Blood be a success and stand on its own?

Outlander Blood of My Blood Starz

Outlander: Blood of My Blood is going to be released on Starz on August 8th, and it will be a prequel to the time travel romance series, Outlander. The reason why I was attracted to this series is because of my love for history and romance combining together. The main character, Claire, is not a loudmouth but someone who has great maturity which is often missing in many characters in cinema now. The series is an oddity among series in that it is historical series spanning many centuries and somehow it manages to get renewed multiple times without not having lost its vigor. Unlike Game of Thrones, Outlander hasn’t really given up on its original vision that began in Season 1.

Can Outlander Blood of My Blood be its own series?

The series is a prequel, taking place in the early 1710s vs the 1740s of the original series. The modern era in the series is also taking place in World War I vs the immediate post-war era of World War II in the original series.

Outlander: Blood of my Blood is looking like it is going to be great addition to the story of the series but can it really stand on its own?

There are always issues with prequels. One issue is that they have to tie into the existing canon, and this can cause problems for fans of the previous stories.

Outlander: Blood of my Blood seems to have a good area to start with. It is staying true to its own previous stories, rather than making changes which would alienate the Outlander book readers and the ones who have watched the TV series.

In my opinion, the series can stand on its own but it is going to have to be coherent and have good writing and acting just as any other production would require.

Outlander: Blood of my Blood will get stronger when it goes to the 1st Jacobite Uprising.

The historical background of the Outlander series which is the Jacobite struggle will have an impact on the narrative on this story.

We shall see how the series does when it released but for now, the most important aspect for the early seasons is how they link up the three Jacobite Risings in the narrative here.
