>Buy Pixar >Move all the good talent to Disney Animation to make them the premiere animation studio >Leave Pixar alone to stagnate making mediocre originals and sequels

What company should Disney buy and gut next, Sup Forums?
Cameron Watson
Disney needs to fucking collapse already. Fuck them.
Carson Gonzalez
>Move all the good talent to Disney Animation
This theory doesn't make any sense. The quality of Disney/Pixar films is determined by the writers and directors, not the animation grunts.
Colton Clark
They're talking about the executives and idea people, many of whom are now in charge of Disney Animation Studios and have largely ushered in a new golden age of success for them recently.
Thomas Diaz
Either a toy or gaming company.
Hasbro has their current licenses and would add a bunch of useful properties. Plus it'd let them put the screws to a bunch of their rivals.
Joseph Moore
Disney had their own gaming company but pretty much nuked it and now just farms out IPs, I doubt they'll want to own another for a while, even if it is an established studio
Brayden Bell
>Continue playing war of attrition with Frozen and live action shit until Sony's entertainment collapses, buy it, use SPC to break into the arthouse market Disney's never ventured into, use Columbia as a second arm to ABC >Wait another ten years, buy Warner Bros and get DC, convert all Six Flags parks into "Disney Nation" theme parks and make Batman/Spiderman crossover gold >Force merger between Turner, Viacom, and FOX just to keep them all from being swallowed And this is how we enter a two-party entertainment system
Thomas Long
This actually never occurred.
Xavier Williams
Square Enix. You should all know why by now.
Adrian Bailey
Im hoping they buy Games workshop
Logan Sullivan
>This actually never occurred.
>Pixar purchased >John Lasseter and Ed Catmull are put in charge of primarily turning around Disney Animation Studios
>Pixar Films >Toy Story 3 (sequel) >Cars 2 (sequel) >Brave (lol) >Monsters University (sequel) >Inside Out >The Good Dinosaur (lol) >Finding Dory (sequel) >Cars 3 (sequel)
Right...
Asher Rogers
Dumb baitposter. Disney didn't gut Marvel, they left their corporate brass intact due to contract obligations when buying the company.
All of Marvel comics' poblem are their own fault
Nathan Wood
You realize that, excepting for putting John Lassiter in charge of ALL animation, Disney didn't 'move' any talent out of Pixar. Lassiter remains involved in Pixar.
Ed was always a finance and administration guy. He remains involved in Pixar as well.
I'd agree that people need to stop thinking that 'Disney' or it's constituent parts (e.g. "Lucas Films' or "Marvel Studios") shits gold.
Bentley Thomas
>Disney buys Marvel >Marvel Studios - their biggest, most profitable division and currently the only thing making something good with the name Marvel - is the only division moved out from Marvel and moved fully under Disney with Fiege reporting directly to Iger. >Everything else with Marvel is a complete shitshow. >Disney didn't gut Marvel
Okay.
Justin Watson
>Leave Marvel alone to make shit comics, animation, television, video games, etc. Marvel did this on their own before Disney though. It's just a different flavor shit now.
James Morgan
What if disney bought EA
Anthony Jenkins
If anything, this shws that Disney is the one that can make something good with Marvel, by ignoring their faggots in charge of the comics.
Christian Smith
I can't decide if things would get better or worse. Not that they'd actually do it because of all the grimdark, but still. Imagine a Warhammer 40k ride at Disney World. What the fuck would that even be?
Jack Bailey
Only if they fix Fantasy Battle
Jacob Barnes
The wonders of the Imperium... >forge worlds >hive worlds >agri worlds Ignore the under-hives goy
Elijah Turner
Yeah, just leave out the fact Feige wanted out from under Perlmutter (after dealing with his bullshit for over 10 years) and was threatening to leave. Marvel editorial dug their own grave a long, long time ago.
Justin Rodriguez
honestly Disney needs to force Perlmutter out
Hunter Campbell
you forgot star wars
wait for them to shit up the old republic canon too
Chase Rogers
Disney would buy a gaming company more for the licenses that would come with it rather than for their ability to actually make games. If they wanted the latter, they would have kept LucasArts and Disney Interactive.
Turner is owned by Time Warner though.
If Disney bought Warner Brothers, they'd own the collected animation libraries of that studio, Hanna-Barbera, Ruby-Spears, MGM, a.a.p./UA, and their own studio.
Wyatt Moore
Beyond the whole Kingdom Hearts thing, buying Square-Enix would also give them a foothold in the manga industry as well since they own Gangan.
Plus it'd give them a few franchises to adapt for teens.
Asher Young
Wizards of the coast
then release special Magical world of Disney expansion for Magic.
Then take Blizzard and add in Disney characters to Heroes of the Storm.
Brayden Perez
They would just remove the grimdark and make it into a more typical space adventure setting.
Leo Scott
disney didn't do shit to these companies, all they did was buy them to leech money from the IPs.
Wyatt Cox
Mattel. Time for Disney to cash in on toy nostalgia. All of Mattel is worth less than one year's net profits for Disney.
Cooper Anderson
>canon disney barbie princess
Daniel Nguyen
Most of Disney's toy licenses are with Hasbro now though.
Samuel Ortiz
Capcom once they manage to work around Japanese laws n shit.
I wouldn't be surprised if that actually happens.
Jayden Wilson
You gut your enemies first before you turn on your friends.
Christian Robinson
There was interview with Pixar employees they mentioned that John treats them like "old wife" while WDAS is his "new girlfriend".
he has three studios to take care of, its obvious he can't keep up with all of them.
John Sanders
Thats prob not a good move, capcom is a flop or 2 away from death and only have a few ips left that they haven't run into the ground. Streetfighter is hurting, RE is hurting, monster hunter has a makenor break game on the horizon( more likely to break), and MvC is not looking good at all and is losing alot of fanbase faith due to misshandling it at every possible chance they get. To make matters worse Namco Bandai has been competing and winning against capcom in the domestic market and dbz has a very good chance at eating MvCi statewise and is going to win domesticly in Japan
Oliver Fisher
They should buy Hasbro. At this point, I'd rather see a Disney version of almost every Wizards of the Coast franchise. Can only improve D&D or MtG
Ryder Taylor
nintendo
William Gonzalez
Disney has no friends; only enemies they haven't gutted yet.
Christopher Perry
That defeats the whole point
Adrian Jackson
Renovate the buzz lightyear ride into an imperial guard tour of the galaxy fighting all flavors of xenos and heretic.
Eli Cruz
>Blaming Marvel comics' woes on Disney Try harder.
Brody Carter
Whatever they'll buy we'll get sick of after 3 years
Matthew Baker
>remove grimdark HERESY
Jonathan King
Why do you hate a company that brings is quality entertainment?! There's just no pleasing you.
Carter Sanchez
It's run by Jews now what did you expected? Walt would never allowed acquisition if both parties wouldn't be benefiting from it.
Tyler Wright
And here I thought DreamWorks was bad with sequels
Alexander Collins
The government would step in to stop a monopoly from forming and break Disney up. You know that right? It has done it multiple times and will do it again.
Aiden Bailey
Walt would have run it all into the ground pursuing his crazy hyper-controlled planned community dream.
Andrew Garcia
You'd need a government unfriendly to mergers for that.
Liam Campbell
Probably a smart move. Nintendo's aesthetic would work well with Disney
Gabriel Foster
isn't there a Japanese law where foreign companies can't buyout Japanese ones
Zachary Butler
Well it's sure good most of you have no jobs in business, at least not at the decision making level.
