Prior to their latest acquisition, <strong>David Zazlav<\/strong>&#8216;s asking price for potential distributors, including bids from <strong>Netflix<\/strong>, <strong>Amazon<\/strong>, and <strong>Paramount<\/strong> last year was in the $70 million minimum. However, with Ketchup Entertainment and WBD&#8217;s negotiated price of ~$50 million, both Looney Tunes fans and animation aficionados can finally rejoice that their efforts on social media have finally paid off. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Coyote Vs.
