Disney Purchasing Marvel for $4 Billion

[chaohsiangchen]

For some reason, I hope to see a game title reads as "Marvel vs Capcom vs Disney." Seriously, who wouldn't want to punch the overly gay Mikey in the face? It would be better if we can fight Mikey Mouse with Bugs Bunny.

WOW! Looks like Stan Lee and the Marvel shareholders will make out pretty good.

Why not? They already have the mutant powers of seducing teenage girls (and apparently some guys). As long as they end up being killed or at least seriously maimed in the end, i'll pay money to see it.

This is the destruction of the wondrous Marvel properties as Disney will utterly dumb/wimp them right down to mediocrity. Imagine if you will Wolverine "talking" his enemies into a stupor while the cops are on the way to clean them up instead of ripping them to shreds himself.

Great for your wallet Marvel, just so utterly bad for your hoards of raving fans.

This marked the end of Island of Adventures at Universal Studio Florida.

I cannot believe that Marvel would sell out it's fans this way. If this makes it through the "monopoly" review and actually happens the losers will be the hordes of Marvel fans as Disney will make a mediocrity of the properties.

Apparently, Mickey Mouse will be in the next Iron Man movie.

Disney bought Pixar a while ago and I'm pretty sure Pixar is still cranking out some incredible animated movies... and Disney made all three Pirate's movies, which were great. I wouldn't be too worried about Disney ruining anything, they couldn't possibly do any worse than Spiderman 3.

Does this mean marvel is going to use computer generated characters? if so lot's of people who draw for all those cartoons will be out of a job. They ruined winnie the pooh so I guess Iron man and the rest will have big changes done to them too. Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!

Somehow I don't think this will go through. It has to be approved by the shareholders still which is the bigger milestone. Although Marvels upper brass is mainly suites. Most of the share holders are fans of Marvel comics.

If they did this move, Marvel would probably be treated like the other IPs Disney has obtained over the years. A very bleak future for marvel considering most of the comics are of a mature nature.

Do you think the shareholders are bigger fans of Marvel or bigger fans of money? Methinks they didn't invest in the company just because they loved comics.

Wow...when Pirates of the Caribbean is being referenced as Disney's ability to do "edgy"...is when I start to think this can really mean bad things.

SO in turn Universal cuts a check to Disney for licensing to use all the superheros at IOA in Orlando

 

[Honis]

Kindom Hearts 3 just got a lot more interesting... Cloud, Wolverine, and Goofy...
