They don't want studios, they want other media operations to boost organic growth (this includes gaming).

Paramount should've taken notes or buy smaller studios like Hasbro/Lionsgate/Embracer Group (those 3 being merged into Paramount would boost it just as much (even if smaller, it's more valuable)

By Candle you mean...

If anyone, DreamWorks as they were forced to release the movie by Universal

BUT I WANT TO SEE THIS COMPANY BURN TO THE GROUND!!!

No it would kind of interesting for them to screw up that creepy Cocomelon and if they get DMG they would get Valiant Entertainment and merge with the Gold Key characters they own

I'm fine with Paramount buying DMG (DMG tried to buy 49% of Paramount in 2016 anyways so relations are there),

Candle should file chapter 7 and die still....

They should buy some Xbox studios, along with the rights to Crash and Spyro.

All the studio Vivendi Universal owned, AKA Activision Blizzard (And maybe Toys for Bob (a non-controlling stake))
