Sony is interested in acquiring Paramount

[BFR]

This would be a big surprise to me if it happens. Heck, I remember back in the Blu-ray vs. HD-DVD format war between Sony and Toshiba, Paramount started off as neutral but then switched to only supporting HD-DVD after they made a deal with Toshiba. Then, a few months after the deal, the first Transformers movie came out and was a huge boost in the sales of the HD-DVD format.
