SPECIAL NOTICE
Malicious code was found on the site, which has been removed, but would have been able to access files and the database, revealing email addresses, posts, and encoded passwords (which would need to be decoded). However, there is no direct evidence that any such activity occurred. REGARDLESS, BE SURE TO CHANGE YOUR PASSWORDS. And as is good practice, remember to never use the same password on more than one site. While performing housekeeping, we also decided to upgrade the forums.
This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Entertainment One, the studio owned by Hasbro, is going through layoffs expected to impact 20% of its film and TV staff. "This workforce reduction is part of the ongoing transformational changes Hasbro announced in January to substantially reduce costs and increase growth rates and profitability," said a Hasbro rep in a statement to Deadline. Hasbro is in the process of selling a majority stake in most of eOne's film and television assets.

The articles I've read seem to leave out the most important part: Is eOne even working on any new movies? This kinda reminds me of when Universal created an entire company with hundreds of employees to manage their Dark Universe. With Rise of the Beats doing poorly at the box office, it doesn't seem like the teased Hasbro cinematic universe is going anywhere soon.
