Truly the darkest timeline...
Thank god that Sony still owns Spider Man. I hope they will never give it to Disney.

Disney have no problem releasing R rated films.. but what about Marvel Studios? Everyone knows they have a specific formula and tone for every single one of their films.. i can't see them breaking it.
I just st least want one more Kingsman. Doesn't feel right leaving it at only 2 films.
Disney now own Al Bundy.
Yes, I know, but I was pondering if they will try to create something new next to Hulu; or just take Hulu and rebrand it as the DisneyFlix© with all the content
Disney acquired MLBAM, which runs MLB.TV among other streaming properties, to create their own streaming service. I believe they're targeting when their content expires off of Netflix in 2019 but I could have the date incorrect.
Cool for Marvel, can't wait to see that !
But I'm worry about the number of movies which will be released...
For example (not real numbers), Disney release 6 movies/year and Fox 14 movies/year
Now I don't think Disney will release 20 movies/year, even 15 movies either...
And I don't see Disney develop, produce and release movies like The Grand Budapest Hotel, Hidden Figures, Gone Girl, The Shape of Water or The Martian

I mean... I wanted marvel to have Xmen and Fantastic 4 back but I don't want Disney to have this much power..... So many mixed feelings right now.
It's going to be weird having the world hate mutants when they seem so enthralled with a God like Thor
I sheeeet
X-Men and Fantastic 4 part of the MCU
And on a smaller not X-Men DLC for MvC Infinite

Say good bye to R-rated Marvel movies, say hello to kiddie shit...going to enjoy the hell out of Deadpool 2, after that Deadpool become a PG13 cunt..
Ah, OK. Funny that was not quite public knowledge who exactly was holding the rights
It was going to be either a Comcast merger or a Disney merger, there's no way around that. We got the lesser of two evils.
Never thought I would be hyped for more of a monopoly, but I really really want X-Men and Fantastic Four done right, and put into the MCU.
Honestly not sure what this brings for X-Men. More often than not I loved the X-Men films - aside from The Last Stand and Apocalypse, which were still decent/good, but not as awesome as X1/2/FC/DoFP). As opposed to the recent MCU films, which I never really seemed to care for. Haven't seen Homecoming yet though, but I love Spiderman as a character so I'd probably like that one.
He already is to me. They haven't earned that rating at all.
Is there a version of "I bought the airline" scene regarding the Marvel rights situation?
Yes please. We got some very good X-Men movies but the F4 treatement was abysmal so far.
That's a scary thought, however as they would be acquiring some of Sky as well, that's 2 services for streaming they'd own (technically NowTV is part of Sky)
Lesser of two evils doesn't mean much to me. It shouldn't have happened at all.
And I'm honestly not convinced Disney is any better than Comcast in terms of owning too much of the media marketplace.
There's no real reason to block it... they purposely didn't buy the Fox Network for example.
Classy
I'm afraid Disney will now throw even more money at him to make these movies.
What are you talking about? The first Deadpool movie could never be PG-13.
Lol you're right. People talking about competition law must think Fox was Disney's only competition, there's a hell of a lot more out there. Not saying this couldn't be a bad thing in terms of power consolidation but it's nowhere remotely near a monopoly.
Yeah probably... too bad too she's perfect. I'd cast her again if they want to do Kitty in her 30s and not a teen.
