All comic book Marvel worshippers dreams are now burning as Mickey Mouse terams up with the X-men to beat Magneto.

Marvel pretty much did this cause they are low in profit to make the movies they wanted too. Iron Man 2 put them down a lot and they had plans for Thor. So with 4 billion, they can do quite a bit now, but I doubt Disney is going to let them do a Thor movie..

I was just at Disneyland, I can't imagine a third park dedicated to comic book characters.

Disney + FF already terrified me as it is. I don't want to see more of this. The idea of KH was horrid to me when I heard about it. It was worse when I saw the gameplay and how characters interacted, don't get me wrong, Dissidia's battle system was practically the same as KH. But jeez, Japanese-looking characters with a goddamn talking CUTE LOOKING MOUSE is weird

PS: I just hope to God they don't make a deal with Namco Bandai, or else I'd be seeing Tales characters with effing Micket Mouse and Donald Duck. DO. NOT. WANT.

As someone pointed out earlier it seems Disney is becoming more of a parent company to them and they'll still operate as a branch of them, similar to how Activision owns Blizzard, but doesn't do much when it comes to Warcraft and Starcraft and such.

At least anyone who enjoys anything Marvel has made can only hope...

This is what is probably going to happen. I'm 100% sure of it. Marvel is a proven formula to work, Disney just wants it. So... they bought it. Don't pineapple with something that isn't broken.

NotaryPublic Wrote:Disney's starting it's plot to rule the world by buying every major corporation already? They should've at least partnered with or destroyed their other major contenders in the race to world domination: McDonalds, Wal-Mart, the tobacco industry (lol), and, the most evil corporation of them all, Nexon.

Do not forget the biggest of them all that Disney will never be able to compete against or acquire: Porn. Really, Porn is free on the internet, but you'd be surprised to know how big an industry it is. If Disney truely wants to rule the world, they have to beat Porn, but any sane person knows that it is utterly impossible for such a thing to happen (Can we say, "Everybody likes Pr0n!" Or that Rule 34 is in effect, No exceptions!).

As for the case of Marvel... well, Prepare for the worst, hope for the best I suppose o.O

[color="#cc8899"]Hmm...
So, instead of the X-Men fighting, amongst other things, themselves, the government, and just about any evil faction that surfaces, they will be mourning the death of their mother at the hands of hunters and befriending rabbits and skunks?

DO NOT WANT.[/COLOR]
