    Default Disney buys Marvel

    Disney buys Marvel for $4-billion

    So, what do y'all think of this? I just hope Disney just puts their name on it and leaves the thing alone.

    I don't remember anything. Does Marvel follow the comic code authority (the fictional non existing regulation agency)?

    Marvel by itself (IIRC) doesn't have obtuse violence, swearing, and 'adult situations' (teh prons). So I don't see any difference unless suddenly they start producing several lines of mickey mouse comics. And that's not that bad =)

    I always thought the X-Men needed more racism. /hohohoDisneyjoke

    My opinion is probably pretty common. I don't care. So long as they don't make everything . Having said that, I don't follow anything Marvel anyway (other than the occasional game), so I don't really care anyway. xD

    I would also enjoy seeing Cyclops rape everyone in a KH game.
    'My oh my, who is that dandy man with his jolly fine hat?' wondered the clouds.

    As long as they don't mess around with Marvel and do strange stuff, it's fine by me.

    ...and the upcoming X-Men Origins: Magneto and X-Men Origins: Wolverine 2...
    Well this is what worries me, not Disney.

    Eh, I guess we'll see. I was pretty flipped when Disney acquired the Muppets, but their output with that name has yet to spawn anything completely awful (save for Kermit's Swamp years) and I do enjoy the Muppets 3-D attraction at Disneyland. They haven't seemed to have messed with it much and that sharp Muppet humor seems to still be there, but they have a nasty habit of putting CG into Muppet films which kind of defeats the purpose.

    I haven't purchased a Marvel comic in ages, and I havent really been impressed with the latest Marvel movies, so I'll hold my flip out until I see what they do with it. The last X-Men film was garbage, as was the last Spider-man, so I dont think they can screw those up too badly. But we shall see, Disney really knows how to completely ruin stuff.

    If by last X-men movie you mean III, that wasnt Marvel, and neither was Spiderman. Now Wolverine Origins, that was marvel. As was Iron man and the newest Hulk movie.

    But on topic, so long as they leave marvel alone, it's all good.

    Really? I did not know that. That changes my opinion of Marvel a bit, even if Origins was still garbage xD. Thanks for the info <3

    After the debacles of Civil War and *shudder* One More Day I honestly don't see how Disney could do anything negative to Marvel.
