I distinctly remember reading that, since Game of Thrones was so enormously successful, that Netflix managed to buy the rights to stream it. I don’t remember anyone telling me this either. Anyone?
Netflix is probably going to buy WB. What would this mean for the future of the Game of Thrones cinematic universe? [Spoilers Extended]
What does Netflix’s acquisition of Warner Bros. mean for the Game of Thrones franchise?

For those that didn't know, WB owns the Game of Thrones IP, and if Netflix buys out WB they would become the new owners. In my opinion,
The good: Netflix might be more likely to produce an animated remake of the books.
The bad: They are also more likely to produce an avalanche of GoT content slop with no source material.
The ugly: George will inevitably become even more distracted by all the shiny spinoffs and our chances of ever seeing TWOW sink even lower than they already were.
Just the title. And your thoughts as well.
I’ll be honest, I’m a little worried. I think the thing we love so much about this universe is its rawness, it’s dark, and it doesn’t hold back. I just don’t know if netflix will hold true to the identity of what this universe is.
On a side note it also makes me worry for the way movie theaters will be impacted, the new Harry Potter remake, DC, etc.
