MGM is basically a defunct rights holding company. It’s made 5 movies in the last decade, including 2 Addams Family, 2 Max (dog movies), and a GI Joe, and the Addams Family movies were really Made by Universal. It’s also a name slapped on some other streaming app.

If I heard the name referring to a current company, I would think hotels/casinos/sportsbooks first. That said, the title could still be better.

I don't really know where you're getting this number. By my count they've made about three dozen films this decade, including a James Bond film and Creed III.

Youre right that my list is wrong.

Downside to HN not having editing and deleting, is I cant retract my misinformation. And I earned 7 votes for that nonsense. :/

Further proof: They have StarGate and aren't doing jack with that at all.

While Star Trek releasing new series every year including cartoons, Stargate didn't release anything. It has so much potential and large fanbase (myself included).

There's a new Stargate series in development. There's promotional stuff happening at /r/stargate

Amazon literally just bought them for $8bn

Did not Amazon at some point buy or thought about buying up some of their business?

[BryantD]

Yep. Amazon bought MGM Holdings in March, 2022. The studio is the only meaningful portion of that.

They’re no longer considered a major U.S. studio but they release 8-10 films a year.

[babyshake]

Yes, because I remember thinking that we would eventually be getting a bloated James Bond extended universe of shows (like Star Wars and Marvel) because of it.
