Without a doubt. Instantly gets you tons of goodwill overnight as well. It's a straight up win win situation for Warner Bros in the end. I can't see any actual downside here for them doing this in the end. Some bloggers and youtubers are going to be super angry they couldn't control and shape this narrative. That's also a win for Warner Bros and everyone else though because it's another way of breaking any kind of influence these people have over anything really.
- Looking like fools because you butchered a version 2 years ago and now, following a movement you're forced to release the original version
- It's not guarantee that the version will be better
- Having two version will be difficult in terms of canon and continuity
- Remind everyone a version of characters WB want to get rid of
- Zack needs to be available and right now he's working for Netflix
I want to see this version but there are lots of reason WB would not want to move forward.
