-Pissed off the entire Harry Potter Fandom (their single biggest cash cow) by casting a black Snape, and likely doomed their insanely expensive Harry Potter TV series to viewership oblivion
-Delayed the release of the sequel to the Batman until 2027, despite the first one being the only DC Comics film they've released in almost a decade that made money.
-Confirmed that the black Superman film written by King-of-the-Race-Grifters Te-Nihisi Coates is still in development
-Completely fucked up the marketing campaign for the upcoming James Gunn Superman film that they're depending on to revive their DC film universe, which is their other major cash cow.
-Nuked a bunch of their beloved legacy programming from their already-barren streaming service and then licensed third-party streamers to make money from it instead.
I still can't belive how hard they dropped the ball with Multiversus. It could have been a slam dunk, but they just HAD to monetize everything and have the devs prioritize the worst stuff....
They literally patended one of the most original video game ideas of the last decade (the Nemesis system), killed the only series with it after two games (which only got huge controversy because they forced the Devs to add MTX last minute and screwed the marketing), then shut the company down.
But are still holding the patent for a few more years to deny anyone possibly contributing to the industry in a way that might benefit the consumer.
They absolutely hate money and people, they seem to exist to spite everyone possible.
Warner Brothers is the stupidest company on the planet.
There's no way. Way too much top tier competition for the title.
So far this year alone, Warner has:

Again, that's just so far this year.
I think it was last year but they canceled the Wile E. Coyote movie
If they hadn't they would have just gender-swapped the Roadrunner and made him a girlboss.
Honestly, Ubisoft might have them beat for creating what appears to be a very real diplomatic incident between the country of Japan and Canada.
