Time Warner reported double-digit gains in income and revenue during the second quarter, doing even better than Wall Street expected, but that wasn’t enough for analysts to give the company a pass Tuesday morning.
During a conference call following the earnings release, they pressed chairman and CEO Jeff Bewkes about the company post-Harry Potter future. He was quick to point out that 2012 will bring another Batman iteration, “The Dark Knight Rises,” with Christopher Nolan again at the helm.
Bewkes also noted that Zack Snyder’s re-imagining of the Superman franchise is another bright spot for 2012 and the D.C. franchise.
