 C'mon, Sean...you don't want to see Snow White and the Silver Surfer brought to life?  ;)

Scary. Just damn scary. -Les

Does that means that Wolverine will be sprouting Mickey Mouse ears and Mickey Mouse will unleashed dull claws when disturbed by Pluto's antics??? :tongue2:

I read about this over at CG society.
Im not all that concerned about the "marvel movies"
anyway.

And on the comic side
there are better titles coming from publishers like "Darkhorse"®
anyways so ...ho hum

Cheers

I am looking forward to wolverine and the x-men sing "achy breaky heart" with Hanna Montana with a backing chorus from High School Musical , oh,  and the seven dwarfs , with tap dancing penguins of course .

Well if there were any hard edges left in the Marvel universe they're about to get smoothed.  

Marvel just got totally Pwned by Disney as did all those who still collected Marvel comics...then again this might make the older copies more valuable. LOL.

Miley Cyrus as "Storm"....

Nuff said.

:b_stunned: :b_stunned: :b_stunned: :b_stunned:

I wonder what they'll do with all the adult aimed characters & storylines? I really can't see Disney wanting to have anything to do with The Punisher.

Makes your Spidey senses tingle don't it?

If that's not a Micky Mouse deal, I don't know what is.....

We are the Disney. Lower your lawyers and prepare to be assimilated. Your IP's and Creations will be used to service us. Resistance is Funny.

And with this stroke, the Poser world is in dire danger, as the family friendly Borg will be after =every= potential 'infringement' they can possibly find. After all, there is an economic downturn in process. Even though the Marvel board is supposed to still be intact.........well, we know just how honorable disneycorp is in the realm of business.......

At least Kitty and Colossus got it on before she got bullet trained into the aether...and he got the sharp end of Bald Mountain up the old exhaust pipe. Can't have commies in Family Friendly America, you know........  >:P
Wolverine gets tamed.
Phoenix gets gelded.
Storm gets political.
Dr. Strange is proven a charlatan, as we can't have positive users of magic.
At least Ghost Rider got made before the takeover....
The Watcher turns out to be Galactus's gay older brother....
Stand by for Crisis in Infinite Neighborhoods, where all the heroes have to deal with nasty kids doing bad things before the go to the ice cream social.....

Would someone please remind our courts and political twerps about what's happened every time a moneymaking corporation gets too damned large....?

Sigh.
Maybe Pixar will do a seminal 'John Carter of Mars' ........as they do have the rights, and they seem to be laboring under the 'cartoons is for kids' miasma of disneycorp that Walter Elias Disney certainly did =NOT= believe in.

Marvel can do a Goofy-Punisher team up.  DC can respond with Bosco meets Rorschach.  Life is good.

Actually, my reaction is somewhere between "sigh" and "meh".  Marvel and DC have been passed around by bigger and bigger corporations since the mid-late 70's, IIRC.  The industry is more about "strong global brand and world-renowned library of characters" now than storytelling, as far as I can see.  That's the "sigh".  The "meh" comes as recognition that this is just the latest step in a long trend.  I mean, AOL owns DC, right?

Still, while I find contemporary mainstream comics unreadable, the "strong global brand and world-renowned library of characters" focus may have been good for a boom in action figures and collectible memorabilia.  I'd never have expected to see Killer Moth, Rorschach, or the Golden Age Atom in action figure form.  DC Direct is impressive to me.  Maybe the Disney link will lead Marvel to start its own version of DC Direct.  So I could add "Ooh, goody!" to my list of responses.  Hmm.

Edited because I -abled when I should have -ibled.

 I don't think this is such a bad thing - Disney is certainly the Mecca of American animation.  They've been overrun with a lot of teenage girl shit over the past few years so maybe this will be a way to build a stronger male audience base.

Mr. Myxyzptlk:
When trying to express oneself, it's frankly quite absurd,
To leaf through lengthy lexicons to find the perfect word.
A little spontaniaty keeps conversation keen,
You need to find a way to say, precisely what you mean...

Myxyzptlk!
Even though the sound of it is something quite atrosicous!
If you say it loud enough, you'll always sound precocious,

Ensemble:
Myxyzptlk!
Um-diddle-diddle-um-diddleye
Um-diddle-diddle-um-diddleye

Superman:
When Stone Age men were chatting, merely grunting would suffice.

Mr. Myxyzptlk:
Now if they heard this word, they might have used it once or twice!

Superman:
I'm sure Egyptian pharoahs would have grasped it in a jiff,
Then every single pyramid would bear this hieroglyph;

Oh!
Myxyzptlk!!
Say it and Kryptonite would not seem so ferocious!

Mr. Myxyzptlk:
Add some further flourishes, it's so ro-co-co-coscious!

Of course you can say it backwards, which is
Kltpzyxym....

Ah dammitalltoheck!

(Poof!)

I think that Disney is really the Umbrella Corporation. If you don't believe me then just look at the audiences of their movies... Zombies, right? there you have it :)

 I look at it this way.  Disney owns Miramax.  Miramax puts out some pretty raunchy humor, lol.  I doubt they'll "clean up" Marvel ;)

Disney already owns ABC Television , ESPN, Soapnet according to Wikipedia. Eventually  they'll  end up owning all media and entertainment.

Who knows eventually they may even end up owning poser...that's had enough owners

I don't believe much will change. Can you picture what marvel could do to the "Princess Collections" :P

Quote - I don't believe much will change. Can you picture what marvel could do to the "Princess Collections" :P

Yeah. I don't expect things to change much either. Quite honestly, movies like Spiderman and Ironman are very Disney like allready. Marvel has been moving into that direction for quite some time.

"Marvel can do a Goofy-Punisher team up.  " - Cage.

I just may draw that. Just for kicks. That sounds AWESOME.

There goes the neighborhood.....

Does anyone remember the RPG game that, for no reason whatsoever, introduced Disney characters in the second version? It was one of those standard Japanese things like Final Fantasy, and the addition of Mickey and Goofy et all just seemed.... weird....

I wonder what they'll do with the gay Colossus and other gay characters in the Ultimates line.  It's been a long while since I read any comics so I'm not even sure if he's still gay, knowing Marvel maybe they gave him an un-gay virus from a distant galaxy or some crap.

Oh God this is gonna spawn an entire new cottage industry, isnt it... :)

Ya think?!

I'm not too worried about Marvel, they spent the last decade owned by a cosmetics company so how much worse could Disney be?

(Marvel was owned by the CEO of Revlon)

The Hulk as Snow White was a piece of brilliance.  :D  Hee hee.  The Buzz Lightyear Iron Man didn't quite work for me.  The faceplate/helmet/mask of IM is very important to his image, but they left the Buzz face in place.

I also liked the Mickey-Minnie-Goofy-Donald as the Fantasic Four image.

That was my favourite of all the images.

Err, it just got worse, kids:

DC Comics - now "A Warner Brothers Entertainment Company"

(...bring on Bugs Bunny in a cape?)

Ummm,,,, Huh? You mean Still a WB company right? That happened 40 years ago.

Or are you trying to say that WB didn't hurt DC so Disney won't hurt Marvel?

Weird... I remember seeing something on CNN day before yesterday about the two. Not sure what that was anymore...

Probably talking about one of the new movies coming out.

Basically, DC Comics became DC Entertainment. Publisher Paul Levitz retired when WB brought Diane Nelson in as executive of the new entity, answering to the president of TW. Time/Warner is just, finally, fully integrating DC Comics into the company, allowing easier access to their stable of characters for film, tv, books, video games, animation and electronic content. Time Warner is embracing DC, instead of being embarassed by them. And Diane Nelson will act as the bridge between the Comics side and the other entertainment sections of the company, so that, perhaps, they might actually make another Superman film, or Wonder Woman, Green Lantern, etc, without many hassles and clearances.

Time will tell if this affects the comics side of things, but it should make it easier for cross-platform access to a wider range of film/tv, etc.

-- Jeff

let me guess poser 8 just crashed on you and you lost the whole scene?

disney and marvel will make great pals, disney has the bucks that marvel needs.
and I am sure they wont act cheap whenever marvel wants to do a new film, be nice to see something other then mickey mouse walking around thier parks.
