You all remember just a few weeks ago when Sony ripped away a bunch of movies and TV shows people “owned”? This ad is on Amazon. You can’t “own” it on Prime. You can just access it until they lose the license. How can they get away with lying like this?

They didn't cut Amber out, I won't be watching it at any price including free.

They didn't cut her out, but her role is greatly diminished compared to the first movie. It's really a buddy comedy between Aquaman and Orm where one is almost literally a fish out of water

Still has her in it though. After what Hollywood did to Johnny based on hearsay and seeing them barely do half that when it was demonstrated that she's a crazy liar, nope.

Wait, you mean I don't actually own Jason Momoa now? What about my kingdom, do I still own that? (It's hard to tell, since it's lost.)

I feel like an outsider on these debates. I totally agree we should be able to own forever.

In my case I find there is so much new TV and movies I rarely go back to re-watch shows or movies so owning them isn't on my radar. It's a challenge just to watch a whole series I find.

I'm wondering how often do people beyond kids re-watch movies and TV shows? Kids seem to be able to rewatch the same movies several times a day..
