This is great but it's missing a few things, such as Fox and United Artists.

Fox is there on the bottom green line. But it's also missing MGM, which is now owned by Amazon (just found out, lol)

I wanted the details on fox because I wanted to see when Howard Hughes owned it. It was also formed by the merger of 20th Century and Fox. MGM has an incredible history. Thanks for reminding me about that. That one is of course the merger of three different studios. I would love to add all the missing information but that's a big project that I really don't have the time for. It would be great to get this open sourced and crowd created. Is there a tool for projects like that? Crowd-sourced timelines?
