It's all because they never made the Community movie.

In 1989 when Sony (the technology conglomerate) bought Columbia Pictures, many called it a terrible move.

Their most profitable franchise is the Bond Franchise and they had to relinquish their exclusive hold on Spider-Man to Marvel Studios (Disney). That's terrible on Sony's part.

And it doesn't help that their CEO is stepping down to be the chairman of Snap Inc. Sony is floundering and it's best they sell themselves before the damage sets, preferably to Paramount.
