NEW LINE CINEMA IS NOT THE STUDIO OF BOB SHAYE AND WARNER BROTHERS HAS RUINED IT

New Line Cinema is a studio that is owned by Time Warner.  Time Warner came in possession of   New Line when they bought CNN from Ted Turner. Ted Turner  happened to Own New Line Cinema & New Line (AND CASTLE ROCK) were part of the Assets.

A  few years after Ted Turn bought the studio New Line did have one major bomb after another.  When Warner Brothers bought the studio the common wisdom was they would unload New Line however they didn't.  New Line However was for a short time a huge money maker for Warner Brothers however after another year of expensive bombs Warner Brothers closed "New Line Distribution" and  the "New Line Banner" was turned into a production company that releases their films through Warner Brothers.


Now that might not of been to bad however Warner Brothers is so afraid to make "Horror Films". They always have been.  Even though New Line did release remakes of "Friday the 13th" " A Nightmare on Elm St" and "Texas Chainsaw" and they were all very successful  Warner Brothers has yet given the Green Light to Sequels for both "Friday" and "Nightmare".   What is crazy New Line Can produce sequels to those films and they would make money but Warner Brothers seems to be afraid of making money off the these films.  I can understand that however if they don't want to make Horror Movies then they should sell New Line to "LIONS GATE".    That studio is not afraid of anything and they make horror movies.


Warner Brothers should just sell New Line,  they could get $2 Billion for it.
