The other studios should just give up.

Finally capeshit is back in the menu. Dr doom solo movie when?

How soon will they put the Xmen and F4 in the MCU? Avengers 4?

Feige says that post-Avengers 4 is like a reset on the MCU in someway.

They could say that beating Thanos reset the universe and now Mutants are a thing idk.

>Simpsons, Family guy and all the other animated shows
>Alien, Predator, Die Hard, Planet of the Apes, full ownership of Avatar, and the Marvel properties
>Control of channels like FX, excludes news and sports
>Full access to Disney, Marvel, Star Wars, Pixar vault

How the fuck is any streaming service supposed to compete with this?

>tfw Disney's gluttony stops at nothing
>the monopoly overcomes everything and everyone
>in the future, the entire world, and every person of every country, color and gender will be bought, paid and owned by the mouse
>tfw with all that power, they still can't manage to make decent movies

AWESOME! Now we can get GOOD movies

>The other studios should just give up
pretty sure they already did

Hopefully they can save Sweden and make it white again

>The other studios should just give up.
Now they gonna have to do best to stay on.

>Disney
>saving white civilization

THE SLEEPER MUST AWAKEN

Are they gonna create a new entity out of the acquisition?
21st Century Walt?
Disnox?
Dox?

more Stranger Things!

Fox will probably not change at all they'll just move their Marvel stuff to the MCU.

>tfw reshoots to shoehorn Deadpool and Wolverine to Infinity War

Probably not. No need to confuse people by changing studio names. Fox will probably be left to work like Miramax and Touchstone did. But leadership may change to better fit the Disney pyramid.

Will Thor be killed?

They're gonna sell a fuckload of toys of that guy if they manage to get one fucking decent movie on the big screen.
He's Marvel's Darth Vader.

>Dr doom Christmas movie when?
Fixed

So pretty soon, our movie and television consumption will be dominated by just five companies.

Disney (Disney & Fox)
Sony (Columbia)
Comcast (Universal)
AT&T (Warner Bros.)
Viacom (Paramount)

With some smaller players like MGM, A24, Amazon, Netflix, CBS (which is heavily tied to Viacom anyway), and the FOX TV channel.

Why are you not terrified of this?

They'll just buy Netflix. A one streaming subscription to rule them all.

The deal is $60 billion btw

>Sneed: A The Simpsons Story
S O O N
O
O

...

All you fucking retards care about is your favorite cartoon stuper heroes getting to play with your other cartoon super heroes.

Jesus.

Why would I be terrified of something that doesn't affect me in the slightest?

Reminder that brainlet wojak is a scorched earth meme by DCucks pretending to be film enthusiasts.

Sony? they haven't shit out anything profitable lately they should have given up too.

And to answer your question then nah, this fucking industry can't save itself with hundred million dollars rehashed blockbusters that barely made its money back.

holy shit

>my kids movies are better than your kids movies
truly more cancerous than any kind of poster

Recast the Mutants or not?

...

That's even worse, though. Disney is clearly way ahead of the other companies here. Sony can't compete at all, Warner Bros. is trying desperately to compete, and Universal and Paramount have their own reliable franchises, but nothing that even approaches the Disney juggernaut level.

This is bad.

>Fantastic Four, X-Men, and Deadpool in the MCU
Please let this happen
It's a shitty forced meme. It doesn't even have potential. Same with the garbage "Amerimutt" meme Sup Forums is desperately trying to push. Sup Forums is the mecca of memes, Sup Forums needs to stop trying and go back to being angry.

>marvel fanboys are film enthusiast whilst dc fanboys are droolers
lol all capeshit are lunchbox advertisements for little boys, you are the worst kind of cancer on Sup Forums, I would pay money to see your top five favorite films

> capitalism is bad

*sips starbucks soy latte*

Agreed, ma'am or fellow sir.

More like people don't care about what they don't have a say in and just look at what will end up happening. The fact that this deal is somehow coming to a close in the first place shows how fucked we are as a consumer

>Now Disney can distribute the Star Wars movies using its 20th Century Fox label

I think they'll recast all of them, only Reinolds should go to the MCU, they could merge both franchises with the skrulls next summer reshooting a few cameos and references in both movies but don't think will happen

>if you enjoy capeshit you can't enjoy indie, arthouse, or foreign cinema

what tired idea

Fuark YAAAAAAS yo!!! Imagine Deadpool and Spidey eating a chimichanga with Johhny Storm, yo!

Shit would be BOSS!!! Also agreed on the Sup Forums shit, those fuckin nazi assholes are ruining this board desu fampai!

I seriously remember saying that ep 7 wouldn't be the same without the 20th century fanfare. Too bad the movie was trash.

When did I say I like capeshit at all? The last one I watched was Thor 1 which put me off to the genre as a whole. I'm just pointing out what's going on. That is, DC fanboys are trying to emulate the pro-/film/ people who actually know about cinema.

t. "My Top 5 is The Dark Knight, Fight Club, The Avengers, Star Wars Episode 7, and Toy Story"

Bad for those respective franchises, but lets face it: Universal's Jurassic World can still BTFO Disney. Superman and Batman are still iconic, and WB will never give up DC.

Afaik only Paramount and Sony are fucked.

>Cinematic universes for Alien, Predator, Terminator, and Avatar
>Total control over Star Wars
>All Marvel characters in one place
this is LITERALLY the greatest thing to EVER happen

the ONLY way this could be better is if Disney also got Apple and Nintendo

My top 5
1. Passion of Joan of Arc
2. Andrei Rubalev
3. Thor: Ragnarok
4. Avengers
5. From Here to Eternity

yeah, there's definitely more going on than just Disney getting Fox's Marvel rights. Bob Iger and those around him aren't stupid. I'm sure the Fox logo and its fanfare will help the Star Wars brand.

I can guess them for you,

>Grown Ups
>Ant-Man
>Iron Man 3
>The Avengers
>Superbad

I hate you. I legitimately hate you. Please go fuck off back to Sup Forumsmblr you low IQ fucking loser.

Won't they recast Deadpool though? The age difference with Spider-Man is big. I'm sure they'll cast a young Johhny Storm, same age as Peter but Deadpool will look out of place.

>Superman and Batman are still iconic
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

>stoplikingwhatidontlike.jpg

Finally we can get some awful Xmen movies !!!

Yo fuark who cares as long as we get more superheroes, dude! It's gonna be EPIC as HECK.

>tfw Disney wont buy Capcom so we can get a CUHRAYZEE Devil may Cry movie with Dante teaming up with Deadpool

What's with all of the commies ITT?

>Jurassic World
they gonna have another movie at best then the franchise die again
>Superman and Batman are still iconic
as bad fucking movies and nobody gonna watch them again till the next 10 years, just like what happened with batman and robin

>when you like movies made for little boys and get triggered when people who like actual films make fun of you

What can any of us do about it? Anti-Trust laws in America have all the strength of a neutered chinchilla.

current x-men has some big stars though like fassbender and jennifer lawrence

being this mad

"Reinolds"
>duh skrulls

Face it, you're unintelligent. You're pathetic.

Can they release original cuts of the original trilogy on 4K BD now?

>you can only enjoy one type of movie and it has to be what I like otherwise it doesn't count

>a person didn't want corporation to rape his as then forced to pay for "the service"
>lel fucking commie am I right?

>Being a 100% Disney fucking shill and loving all of this just because your brainlet ass thinks comic book movies are the best thing since your mom finally left your abusive dad who would call you a faggot for not playing football

>I want my original cuts! xD
It won't happen or it'll be a breach in contract. One clause in the deal between Lucas and Disney stated to never tamper or otherwise revert his changes. I don't know why people are crying for the original cuts. All you'll get is prehistoric special effects, matte overlay garbage, and bad color correction.

Maybe Warner grabs Columbia or Paramount after this.

I care because I like Reynolds as Deadpool and how Rated R his movies are. They'll cast someone younger.

Amerimutt capetard detected.

Paramount is actually doing quite well.

Their biggest franchises are Transformers, Mission Impossible, Star Trek, but they also produce a lot of shitty kids franchises, horror franchises, and B-grade CGI porn that the chinks love.

Warner Bros. is doing worse than Paramount. They have tons of great IP, but they have no idea how to handle it.

The only studio that's truly fucked is Sony. Wouldn't be surprised to see them divest Columbia in the next 5-10 years.

If you can't tell, brainlet, the guy replying to you is making fun of you.

>moving the goalposts away from the fact that, even though I'm a self proclaimed cinnephile, I still find the time to indulge in movies made to sell lunchboxes to little pre pubescent boys

I'm aware that all of you have autism here.

Disney will never get Nintendo. After what happened with the Super Mario movie in the '90s, I'd see Nintendo selling out to Comcast (Universal) before they even gave Disney the time of day.

Especially now that Nintendo and Universal are partnering up on movies and theme parks anyway.

This is an academic discussion anyway. The truth is that Nintendo has one of the largest cash reserves in the business world and they don't need to be bought out by anybody.

Warner's not going to be around much longer

ESPECIALLY NOT after this year with Blade Runner, Geostorm, King Arthur, Justice League, CHiPS, The House, Fist Fight, Everything Everything, Lego Ninjago, Unforgettable, and Going Out in Style

that's the problem, Disney hire only big stars for 1-2 movies or small roles : Hopkins, Goldblum, Cate Blanchett, Michael Douglas, del Toro, Ben Kingsley etc. 4 more than 1 movie I don't think they'll hire something like that

Go back to Sup Forumsmblr, kid.

Universal actually made more than Disney in 2015

>Jurassic World
>Furious 7
>Minions
>Fifty Shades of Grey
>Pitch Perfect 2

Very true.

RIP Fox Searchlight Pictures, you were great

I bet you're the type of person that stands outside McDonalds losing your shit at the people eating there

True, but I was talking about the advantage Disney would have AFTER this Fox buyout took place.

Either way, Universal will be fine. They have reliable franchises that rake in aircraft carriers full of cash.

>and WB will never give up DC.
because they literally can't because the characters are so shit

youtube.com/watch?v=9pDnYxBxZBE

They'll keep it around and use it as they're Miramax replacement. I don't think they have on since they sold it off a few years ago

Warner is bigger than Disney though. A bad year isn't going to stop those kikes and chink

There's good money in the awards circuit though. Some examples:

Black Swan
>$13 million budget
>$329,398,046 box office

La La Land
>$30 million budget
>$445,670,343 box office

if that were true they wouldn't need the AT&T merger so bad

One of the reasons Fox fired Bryan Singer and kicked his production company off the Fox studio lot. No way was Disney going to have Singer attached to the X verse

isn't it like illegal? Wouldn't Disney hare be simply to big and dominant ?

Disney can just change the law.

Who cares about legality bro! We're getting more superheroes!!!

Why? People love Reynolds in that role and don’t care about age shit

>one silent tear for Sony

How the fuck is Sony gonna stay relevant now? What do they even have?

>Spider-Man is their biggest franchise, but they're so bad at handling it that they gave up and let Disney do all the work now
>...uh...
>...
>Men in Black?
>Ghostbusters? (kek)
>...21 Jump Street?!

They lost the James Bond distribution deal, which was their second-biggest franchise, and that's just about it. They have no corporate divisions that can create synergy, apart from their video game division, and they're doing nothing to exploit that. No big acquisitions on the horizon. They can't compete. They're just ants standing among giants.

Comcast is bigger

>brainlets actually defending Disney becoming a monopoly because they get their capeshit movie crossovers out of another massive acquisition

Sad

nope completely legal they aren't buying Fox just most of it

and Disney already dominates

Paramount had a pretty bad 2017 too.

>Transformers 5
>mother!
>Rings
>Baywatch
>Ghost in the Shell

all bombed or underperformed

Disney isn't even that big right now. They have a few huge IPs that make it seem so

How long until they buy out Hollywood and pump out PG-13 low-effort garbage literally generated by AI for maximum profit depending on input from the public based on social media posts and Twitter polls?
>"WOW! I CAN'T WAIT FOR ANOTHER GREAT MOVIE FROM FOX© - A DISNEY© COMPANY, I'M SO TIRED OF MOVIES FROM PARAMOUNT - A DISNEY© COMPANY!!"
>"WOW! 2 BURGERS AND FRIES FOR JUST $29.99?!? WTF, I LOVE WENDY'S© - A MCDONALD'S© COMPANY NOW!!!"
>"I'm so glad there's no competition between different companies that have the incentive of benefiting me as a consumer!!!"

>they gonna have another movie at best then the franchise die again

If Jurassic World is anything to go by, they could end up with another hit. And people do fucking love dinosaurs. As long as the writing is decent, it'll do fine.

>as bad fucking movies
>*laughter*

Look. I may be a Marvelchad, and the MCU is superior, but DC still rules in animation. And chances are, if you ask a random passerby what they think of when they think superhero, they most likely will think Batman or Superman first, then Spiderman or Iron-Man. The DCEU may have had terrible movies, but Batman ahd the Dark Knight trilogy just half a decade ago. And, again, Superman has been in the public consciousness for ages. DC will recover.

....though it is good that, finally, Marvel is truly shining in the sun.

hopefully before 2020

I NEED MY LORD OF THE RINGS CINEMATIC UNIVERSE BASED DISNEY

>apple poster is a commie estronaut
Really no surprise.
