    I'd be willing to bet money that not only will you not see "Disney presents Iron Man 2" anytime soon, you'll also never even notice that they have any connection to Marvel period.

    It seriously amazes me when people automatically assume that once a company is purchased they'll see the parent meddling with a very successful formula. I find it telling of just how little the average person knows about business.
    This post speaks the truth. Disney is a company and they bought Marvel in order to make money from it, not out of a desire to change it or destroy it.

    Ahahahahaha oh dear this ought to be fun.

    Seeing as I don't really think either of them can do more "selling out" or w/e (not a bad thing but I do think both companies have exploited all of their franchises to the point where it can't get any worse) I'll probably just find any "messing around" - and consequent fan rants - quite funny.

    Uh... chill.

    You may be right, Disney might not do anything, but it's my right to be wary.

    I agree with the statement... Like Tata Motors(India) owns Range Rover and Jaguar ....The set up is the same...It only that company has now gained a foot hole in the European Markets...

    Still I can't help but to imagine this...



    Disney's Princesses VS. The Women of X-Men'

    I'd pay good money to see this!!
