  • It’s official: Netflix has completed its massive acquisition of Warner Bros.'s film & TV assets, and that means Ben 10, Cartoon Network, and the entire Ben 10 universe now belong to Netflix.

    Will we finally get a proper Ben 10 reboot or continuation?

    • Live-action movie or series on the table at last?
    • Higher budgets, better animation, global roll-out?
    • Are the old seasons coming back to Netflix permanently?

    Drop your hype, your fears, your dream projects, and your wild theories. The Omnitrix is now in Netflix’s hands; time to talk about where the franchise goes from here!

  • I was actually curious if that's really a thing. If Netflix really does now own Ben 10, I don't know at the moment what to make of it. I'm rather skeptical of them and I don't think I have much trust in Netflix. I guess we'll see what happens. Maybe something good will come or maybe not.

    In the past I would have said continue where Omniverse left off, but now, at this point, anything new for Ben 10 would be great.

    Personally I am not so keen for a live-action Ben 10 show. They tried it with Alien Swarm and Race Against Time, and it wasn't for me. Even I would be more interested in a revival and a continuation of the 2016 reboot than a live-action Ben 10. But I will take something rather than nothing.

    I'm not looking forward to what Netflix is going to do to WB Games. https://kotaku.com/netflix-warner-bros-games-batman-harry-potter-deal-2000651695

    Why does Warner Bros want to even sell the entire company? They merged up so many times and it is difficult to be caught up with what's going on with WB.

  • @admin I am not keen on or eager for Paramount to buy Warner Bros, even if they claim they'll keep films in theatres. I don't believe David Ellison's bogus promise that they'll bring 30 films a year, especially since Paramount is pulling an upcoming Avatar animated film from theatres to make it a streaming exclusive on Paramount Plus.

    I am also not keen on CNN becoming a MAGA news network. I would rather Warner Bros just pay off their own debts and remain independently owned. If they have to sell, maybe sell parts of WB to new owners. Sell Cartoon Network so Ben 10 can flourish and not be held back by Warner Bros's other priorities. Sell WB Games to people interested in that space who can continue the work. WB Games should also sell TT Games so they can stop making these LEGO games and maybe return to making new Crash Bandicoot games.

    I am not someone well versed in this topic to be honest, but this is my take on it.

    Yeah DC offers content for both children and edgy stuff for adults, I don't see why it can't happen under sister platform from CN. I hope it's UAF or UAF inspired

    Wow, I had read up on how the game is really glitchy and filled with technical issues. It's been pissing some people off.

    @Ben-10-Fan I still think they can turn it around and improve the reboot, I'm still not sure that the Gwen spin off is even being made, but I hope so. It might help the franchise.

    So according to this link by MoviePilot.com that lists 10 facts about Ben 10, Joel Silver might not be involved with the Ben 10 live action movie anymore. What we already know is that in 2011, Joel Silver was called in to produce the Ben 10 movie under Warners Bros and Dark Castle Entertainment while in 2012 it was reported that Albert Torres was writing the script. This we already know. What I think we don't know was that Joel Silvers left Warners Bros in 2013 and now works at Universal Studios. Ryan Engle was also brought in to continue working on Torres' script, which I believe means that Torres is no longer working on the Ben 10 movie. MoviePilot states that the Ben 10 movie might be made by either Warners Bros or Universal Studios but I doubt that Universal Studios is going to be working on Ben 10 simply because Ben 10 is owned by Cartoon Network, who is owned by Time Warner and Turner Broadcasting, who also owns Warners Bros and Dark Castle Entertainment. Universal Studios is owned by Comcast and NBCUniversal and not Time Warner and Turner Broadcasting. Cartoon Network is not going to hand this movie to Universal Studios but instead they would hand it to Warners Bros because of this. Therefore, Joel Silver is not involved with the Ben 10 live action movie. Whether or not anyone here knows about this already, I'm posting this here anyways for those who don't know about this. http://moviepilot.com/posts/3900108 Joel Silvers leaves Warners Bros: http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/warner-bros-joel-silver-317552 http://news.doddleme.com/news-room/warner-bros-joel-silver-part-ways-after-25-years/ http://flickdirect.com/news/3854/joel-silver-producer-of-the-matrix-leaves-warner-bros/article.ashx Ryan Engle working on the Ben 10 Movie: http://www.slashfilm.com/live-action-ben-10-adaptation-adds-black-list-screenwriter-ryan-engle/
