This is the CEO of Warner Bros. Entertainment and the new president of Cartoon Network, Kevin Tsujihara...

I think he means more "keep TCM as a classic film channel and not make it into AMC shit or showing 2000s stuff"

He's gonna make decisions in order to push children's television towards a success and Yea Forums is gonna hate it. And then everybody will be a contrarian and say..
>"WHAAA!! I miss Stuart Snyder!! Snyder was way better than this chink

Execute Lazzo!

Man of steel 2 please

Otter Media, the group that is in charge of VRV, Rooster Teeth, and Crunchyroll, is also being folded into this thing.

Western cartoons now count as anime.

>licensed bullshit
Better Suggestions:

>More original programming
>Return Toonami to a 2 hour afternoon block and keep Saturday nights for OVAs and movies or have it be an ongoing audition block where you show an episode 1 of a few different shows and whatever's most requested gets a daylight slot with the rest available on Crunchyroll which has the same fucking owner as CN (synergy, dipshits).
>cut 2 hours off Adult Swim and stop rerunning Fox trash

>T-to-san?!

Expect more Looney Tunes and Hannah Barbara cartoons and movies is the gist of the article.

That's probably a good thing.

>The film studio, he said, will benefit from having more direct access to material from Cartoon Network, Adult Swim and Boomerang, which are among the networks being added to his portfolio.

We could actually see more movies based on CN shows

This could actually be a good thing if they continue to innovate and do new shows on these properties right
See the quality of Duck Dodgers, Tlts and Mystery Incorporated

Yeah I'd say he'd be ok.

Not going to lie if he managed to get them to make movies based on the DC and Hanna Barbera crossover I'd watch it in a heartbeat

They also mentioned that the synergy between the former Time Warner brands was horrible, and it was, it was atrocious because they were all completely seperate. So in the future, we may actually get showed made by Warner Animation that don't get shitcanned to Boomerang in 2 months and DC shows that actually get advertised and don't are at 7AM on Saturdays.
This goes across all aspects of Warnermedia, not just CN. All that at the most of hundreds of jobs and HBO's autonomy.

What did he mean by this?

He’s still an ethnic japanese

Why was the synergy between Turner and Time Warner shit?

Ethnicity doesn't really mean shit in the US.

Two bombs weren't enough.

He’s still a japanese man

That never made sense, burying their own shows like that on Boomerang
Now that they have direct control they'll force these shows to have good times on Cartoon Network like the past. Hopefully they actually make them good, they always have potential

Does this mean we don't have to worry about SJWs infecting the WB anymore?
Well shit. There goes that sliver of hope.

Yes. It was evident, very evident, with Cartoon Network.

He's as much Japanese as African-Americans are African.

TCM is the most based channel of all time desu

God I love TCM
>No commercials
>Actually informative presentations on movies
>Won't cut the films they air
>All those short films they play between movies
>You'll find movies you didn't know existed to appreciate

If anything were to happen to TCM then that would be the time that I would cut all ties to modern society and live like a hermit in a shack in the woods.

Yellow insect swine pls go home. pls.

He's the new president but what has he worked on that shows he has potential? For all I know he may not give a shit about cartoons and the network will go into another dark age again. How am I supposed to be happy about this if I don't even know who the hell he is?

It’s already in a dark age. It’s at its lowest point so the worst he does nothing and it stays the same, but there’s a huge chance it will improve some way now.

He's been in charge of WB (and WB animation) since 2013. Take what they have made and approved since then as how you feel he'll go with CN

Ganbatte, Tsujihara-san. May the light of BLESSED BETTY guide us into the future.

user, there are always ways to fuck up
Can you give some good and bad examples of what he has helped make during his time at wb?

some stupid company culture about trying to pit everybody against each other to perform the best. it got worse during the years where the old WB CEO was retiring and every other exec was gunning for that position. I think it was 2011 to whenever Tsujihara was appointed.

The Scooby franchise has been on fucking point, especially the movies.

Dumping Tsujihara images.

Probably the bad would be those Boomerang shows and spamming TTG
Under his wing Warner Bros produced animated films again, starting by personally going forth with making The Lego Movie, like said Scooby is on point and is coming back with a 2d film, decided to bring back those LT shorts coming out this year

OK, so the man was chosen in January of 2013. Stuff that came out that year and parts of 2014 were under previous leadership, Barry Meyer (with the company from 1972, made CEO in 1996). Since, Harry Potter was finished, WB was trying to find a new blockbuster franchise to anchor the studio (prior to Fantastic Beasts). And then they saw back-to-back billion dollar films from Marvel/Disney in Avengers and Iron Man 3.

Wanting to strike while the iron is hot, they chose to retain MoS' Zack Snyder and David Goyer to be their architects of the DC universe. Nolan only really stuck around for MoS, but Snyder and Goyer would still pass notes and stuff to Nolan to pick his brain. We've seen what has happened in this corner.

But just because he is bad at picking which horse to back in the blockbuster market doesn't necessarily mean he is entirely terrible. WB still makes competitive movies in the midbudget range and consistently competes for Oscars.

At the end of the day, he needs a really concrete plan and not do things as it comes like he did with the DCEU. Letting the creatives do their thing and only interfere when they go overbudget and/or just aren't making anything good.

All jokes aside if anime and cartoons mixed animation as a whole would benefit stupendously. This weird cultural divide between the two regions just stagnates growth at this point. Look back the last decade and the best of western animation hardly rates to mediocrity in the east, and what does was animated in the east anyway, so...

>Popeye cartoons and Flash Gordon serials on Saturday mornings
They were gone for a few weeks because of the Oscars programming, but they're back this week.

you have a happy face.

oh god... are we old?

>Bring back Static
We've come a long way since the 90s and early 2000s when people actually put in a lot of effort for diversity in cartoons and I can safely say that urban/hip-hop culture is pretty garbage these days to warrant adapting into a modern superhero cartoon. Also, that show's secondary purpose was to teach the urban youth the wrongs of getting involved in gangs and drugs. Multiracial-wise, I'm not even sure the culture has as much of a influence on them as it previously did.

is he.. is he rolling his eyes?

too happy face.

serious face.
comedically serious face.

pretty sure all japanese translations of japanese anime are just mocking us in shitty english.

>Popeye cartoons and Flash Gordon serials on Saturday mornings
I've been gone for college so I don't have TCM but holy shit they do this now? I need to watch this shit immediately

seniors are most active around 5-6:30, so it'd have to be before then.

You better be Japanese you fucker. If you turn out to be chinese, i'm sealing you in a shipping container and dumping you in the ocean.

No worries user, he's a Jap. He loves to play vidya and watch boxing.

fuck, its like somebody pushed my racist button and now I can't stop!

>What did he mean by this?

Trump was a mistake

please understand

He will run CN like a Yakuza boss. Nice!

>and the new president of Cartoon Network,

He's been in charge of WB for a while now.
And he's NOT the 'new' president of CN. Rather, he's been in charge of a new unit and that new unit INCLUDES Cartoon Network (as well as some other stuff they're considering YA and family friendly, like Boomerang, Otter Media).

As far as this board is concerned, what this means is that Warners is now more fully in control of the Turner properties - so the days of Cartoon Network shitting on something like Justice League Action, Green Lantern - TAS, or Young Justice are over.

So you should actually celebrate. CN will also be a lot less crappy in general.

>We could actually see more movies based on CN shows
Oh shit, Summer Camp Island: The Movie is probably going to happen.

Here is what happened last time his job expanded in reach. The man is an ACTIVE President. EXPECT SHAKEUPS!

SCI is the type of shit this new leadership is going to use an enema to scrape out of CNs system.

Identity politic is a mistake.

We can hope.

That's nice dear, but we don't care for your ramblings today.

They run Flash Gordon at 9:30 and Popeye at 10.

>Why was the synergy between Turner and Time Warner shit?
what said, it got especially bad between CN and DC, basically there's a reason that Teen Titans Go was the first DC show CN's aired since Brave & The Bold that it didn't screw over, and that was because DC gave CN a much larger chunk of the merchandising profits than they usually did

it was also pretty ugly between CN and WB Animation, to the point that WB Animation actually made one or two shows for Disney instead in the last couple years instead of dealing with CN's bullshit

>dear, but we don't care for your ramblings today.
You talk like you’re from tumblr, maybe you should go back their?

I don't give a shit about cartoon network, will we get a proper Batman TV show now?

>At the end of the day, he needs a really concrete plan and not do things as it comes like he did with the DCEU. Letting the creatives do their thing and only interfere when they go overbudget and/or just aren't making anything good.
That's not what happened. The DCEU had executive meddling since the beginning. Snyder and Goyer didn't even want to mix MoS with other DC movies.

Please cancel Steven Universe forever.

Except Turner's still alive.
Being from Georgia, I would have known if he'd died. All the flags would be at half mast and shit.

Superman cameo at end of SHAZAM.
Not Wonder Woman. This cannot be over stated. Don't ruin it.
Have nothing Birds of Prey or Suicide Squad do effect the JLA in cinema. Don't ruin it. Imagine what would happen if Wonder Woman meeting Harley fell flat. It would be like finding out Santa isn't real multiplied by vagina.

Wonder Woman movie just please be good.

Next JLA Superman gets captured by Mageddon. Batman gets captured by Apocalypse. Flash evaporates himself backwards in time into Batman's Dream fromBVS. Green Lantern surprises everyone as Ryan Reynolds, unlock that extra feature Tim Burton. JLA 2 New Gods MINIMAL origin, Mister Miracle escape taken directly from most recent run. Red Haired guys stays a problematic rudeness. Barda shows up and Gal Gadot's thinness has a purpose, to make Bards look bigger. BUT they TOTES become BESTIES! Sort of. I mean turn it way up and then keep it mutual admiration quiet.

Aquaman does a total 180 on participation, he's present but expresses the resignation. He's got a kingdom to rule or something.

Keep him away from Red Haired New God.
What else?
Darksied shows up. Darksied wins. Ends JLA 2, cliff hanger

But like a happy cliff hanger because Shazam shows up , the whole Marvel Family, actually.

What else OH! SOMEONE finally had the balls and the ovaries to invest in gender relations and gets tickets for Boys Scouts, Boys and Girls Club, Girls Scouts all to get tickets.

Shazam 2 gets origin for Marvel Family prequel to JLA 2 cameo.

Suicide Squad let's James Gun do whatever and a Batman Beyond Revenge of the Joker live action adaptation with JOSH HARTNET or Army Hammer as Terry.
Would prefer Hartnet, though.

What else?

And Mr K.T. looks like the kind of guy to get all that done.

Oh, and a massive super hero game based on these properties announced in between Dec 2019-Jan2020.

There are some very good suggestions coming through the cocaine, but I think you need to lie down for a while.

Japanese have a stranglehold on their people's thinking, no matter where they call home. He's more nip than a black american is african.

>had TCM
>gets dropped from my lineup
I hope I don't lose AS because of this AT&T shit.

Now that most of the important parts of Turner are now with both HBO and Warner Bros., do you think AT&T/WarnerMedia might buy another company in the future? If so, which one?

Where do Dreamwork's loyalties lie?

Universal/Comcast.

Sticking your fingers in your ears and going lalalala is a valid strategy in this case so let's surprise everyone and keep Batfleck alive. Just give him a lot less screen time. Maybe even die at the end of JLA 2 to get across a much more realistic tone in order to compensate for the JLA ain't The Authority problem.

Does it even matter? Whoever is in charge is a capitalist first and foremost. Profit will be their number one priority. Meet the new boss, same as the old boss.

And are they at the top of their chain, or does someone own them?

>Whoever is in charge is a capitalist first and foremost
fuck off commie go to Venezuela

We lost the diceroll last time... let's pray for a good one this time.

Your sore nerve aside, there's not going to be an actual change until the market crashes.

The history of cartoon network president changes disagrees with you.

It's too late. Television is fucking dead.

Venezuela is just there. if the market were to you wouldn't get communism, you'd get libertarianism most likely which I hope.

No. I don't think it does. Because every CN president just does what makes the shareholders happy and, right now, they are loving the idea of homogeneous indistinct cartoon shows.

Proofs?

>having no food to buy vs all food unregulated and contaminated

What did this guy do to Justice League to gain so much hate from Snyder cultists?

TTGO, Powerpuff girls 2018, Ben 10 2018, Thundercats re-remake. This is no different to what was going on in the eighties and seventies. We grew up in a golden age of animation. But, that was a nice break from the norm.

It isn't the 70's anymore. We can demand a better product.

You can make a lot of noise and they can choose to ignore you; because you're not their primary audience.

Does this mean Boomerang might get better? Years ago I remember it playing stuff like Wait Till Your Father Gets Home that weren't super popular when we'd get it on a free preview thing. Now my local cable thing has the channel but it's half newer CN shows and half Tom and Jerry.

Good luck in the age of streaming then.

Was against solo movies before the JL movie because he wanted to compete with the MCU and rushed the production for yearly bonuses.

GUYS

TSUJIHARA WAS THE MAIN GUY IN. CHARGE OF THE DCEU. HE WAS THE ONE WHO INSISTED ON KEEPING ZACK SNYDER.

No. Nothing's getting better.

None of those are successful or good, those shows are what miller wanted and weren’t what were best for the channel. If they want it to be successful again they won’t follow her example.

And a few days ago he just conceded defeat.

I've never even attempted to visualize a RONIN movie in the style of 300 or Sin City.

This is a lot of conjecture that I feel is based solely on your feelings.

And bad ratings, bad popularity, etc.

I'll forgive him for Justice League if he can fix public perception of WB and H-B cartoon stuff

>le subjective maymay
Fuck off.

It would be nice if that were true but they didn't make a TTG theatrical movie because it's failing.

I still miss Robert Osbourne bros.

Thank God. At least the japs don't fold to SJWs, cucks, and feminists. Hopefully he'll get blessed by based Abe.

CEOs tend to fold to their investors as opposed to your strawmen.

They made one because miller refused to let it go long past the point that it was obviously not the golden calf they expected that it would. The fact that it came and went under the radar proves that no one cares about it.

Proof?

It only made like 30 mil domestically, that’s pitiful for an animated film let alone one with characters such as batman attached.

Isn't Sam Register still in charge of WB Animation? It doesn't specify.

>only run one show
>SeE, iT GeTs RaTiNgS!!!1!

I meant proof that Miller was behind it and was about as involved as you make her out to be. Since, you know, you talk like you were at several board meetings.

My ancestors were Aryan kings. I guess I am too

Nice, some good information to share? That zone has always been interesting.

He's pretty handsome for an older man, nice smile too.

Oriental genes. He'll look good for his age until he hits eighty and turns into a three hundred year old master.

Don't get why so many women seem ambivalent towards Asian guys, they age pretty well.

I dunno, he just has a reassuringly friendly face. I will trust in his smile.

Is TCM Underground still around?

>Except Turner's still alive.

The company, not Ted.

We need more animated violence.

He was in charge of the entire Warner's portfolio, of which the Warner Brothers film studio is just one part.

Yes, there is reporting that when some of the suits at WB went to the actual president in charge of the movie studio and wanted Zach shit canned after BvS, that the decision went all the way up to Tsujihara and he supposedly ultimately said keep him - but that can easily be viewed as a business decision. They could have brought in Josh Whedon (or George Miller or Peter Jackson or Patti Jenkins or anyone else) on short notice and they wouldn't want to change things, re-write scripts or otherwise need time they didn't have or want to spend since Justice League started filming right as BvS was released. The blame here should go to the person that approved that time table and scheduled the film for release so soon after one another, and that's not the CEO but the studio president.

MORE CARTOON NETWORK MOVIES COMING

From the man himself:

>Here at Warner Bros., incorporating Cartoon Network, Boomerang and Adult Swim into the company will truly make Kids/Young Adults/Animation a fundamental pillar of our business. This newly combined operation will allow us to take an integrated, global approach to all our kids and animation businesses (TV, film, games, consumer products) like never before, using the companies’ IP, talent and legacies to create an animation powerhouse.

The first ones since PPG, rights? I'm not counting TTG because it's DC.

>Ted outlived his own company

MAN, when it comes to cable you should have already. Cable is absolutely worthless.

Isn't this the guy who ran the WB film department and gave us the Snyder-fronted DCEU? How do you manage to fail UPWARD? How is that a thing?

I think all of these would be the sickest shit actually. I'd like to add:

>WW animated series
>Flash animated series
>Aquaman animated series
>GL animated series that isn't shit

Teen titans Go is an anime now

I don't think DC trusts CN to make action cartoons again. They will just take them to one of their streaming services (DC Universe, they are doing that with Young Justice and that upcoming Harley Quinn cartoon).

Ironic weebs were a mistake

Comcast is bigger than Disney so that's as high up the chain as it gets.

That's how low my bar is. Just try to make cartoon network more than TTG reruns.
