As Dreamers Do: American Magic Redux

I wonder if Carolco is going to get bought out and if so by who. I see General Motors, Pepsi, Eastman Kodak, Johnson & Johnson, Sony, Westinghouse, Goodyear, Berkshire Hathaway, Anheuser-Busch, Harrah's, General Mills, and Coors all being interested in buying the studio.
I would see Sony buying them

Sony is the most likely.

BUT...that all depends on what happens with Golden Harvest of America because I'm not sure when Raymond Chow retired from the Hong Kong film industry IOTL.

Did The Wonder Years ever exist ITTL?

Also may I suggest the songs for Fantasmic (assuming it is what I think it is):

  • Beach Boys, "Sloop John B"
  • Stevie Wonder, "Superstition"
  • Jimi Hendrix, "All Along The Watchtower"
  • Paul Simon, "You Can Call Me Al"
  • Bruce Springsteen, "Born to Run"
  • Blondie, "One Way Or Another"

Was The Wonder Years a thing ITTL? (Is it possible that Greg Rhodes had a cameo?)
Also, did Greg Rhodes not want to reprise his role as Tom Sawyer?
Did White Noise ever see a VHS or LaserDisc release?

Yes, the Wonder Years was a thing. Carolco owns the rights due to the merger with Grand Diamond.
Greg's voice had gotten deeper in recent years. Unfortunately, he was arrested for heroin possession right before he could record his lines.
Yes, White Noise came out on VHS and LaserDisc.

I hope Greg Rhodes gets some nice rehab. There is actually a rehab facility named Passages Malibu. It is located in Malibu, CA. I'm hoping that he goes there for 3 to 4 years, and then after getting out maybe joins a good Methodist or Presbyterian church so he can find a community that helps him recover.

That makes me wonder: What have Ennis Cosby and Joey Lorenzo been doing?
