What the... ?!?
Now, this does come off as a bit of a shock, but I can't say it's such a big surprise (quasi-monopolies will do what monopolies do, blah)... Disney made Marvel "an offer they can't refuse", so they're as good as bought.

I doubt there will be much pertinent opposition (from the shareholders, that is), but what about public reaction ? How do you feel about "Walt Disney presents : Wolverine vs Sleeping Beauty - Reloaded" ?

I think it is just a ploy to pwndizzle the Orlando theme park market, all Universal Orlando studios had going for it was a hulk ride + dr dooms tower of doom, or w/e it was called.
and the way super hero movies have been making money (well some of them) it makes sense.

Well, all I can say is.. I hope the movies currently in production are epically good, cause after Disney starts making them they most likely wont be worth watching. Absolutely everything is subjective. |

Why would they do that? There's quite a few media companies in Hollywood, and more throughout the rest of the US, plus the rest of the world. Disney just bought one tiny movie company + publisher.

Not true.
Miramax and Touchstone are both owned/founded by The Walt Disney Company. Its kind of funny to think that There will be Blood, Kill Bill, and No Country for Old Men were made by Disney, isn't it?
Don't forget that they own the network ABC, and have a mighty merchandising juggernaut, with enough political clout to keep their properties and creations from ever reaching the public domain.

Oh dear, not good news at all. What will happen to all the X-Men if they have to burst into song all the time, fall in love with monsters and inanimate objects and such like? At least one thing is the same in both comics and disney cartoons...the fate of the villain is almost always ambiguous. -------------

Expect to see Thor in his upcoming movie with a plucky CGI sidekick/comic relief with the voice of Robin Williams who nobody ever pays attention to. In fact they'll probably turn Mjolnir into that. -- Eventus stultorum magister. |

Disney owns a lot of stuff already. I'd rather not see them expanding their control.
