What? Whas that a thing? Why would Sony merge one of its most important divissions with one that keeps struggling to find continued success year after year?

Operating Income. Gaming first and Pictures second.

2011     29.3     34.1

2012       1.7     47.8

2013      -18.8   51.6    

2014     48.1     58.5

2015     88.7     38.5

To be fair, those  years were the end of the PS3 and PSP lifecycle and the developement and release of both Vita and PS4. Soooo... :P

I don't know, after the failure of the Spiderman Reboot movies, the amount of reboots they do and specially the PR dissaster that was the Ghostbuster movies, I don't see how Sony Pictures can be considered anything but unstable. What was the last big solid hit Sony Pictures got, both critically and finantially?
