>Implying DC isn't owned by a huge ass meda conglomerate and didn't sell out years before

But DC's already owned by a bigger company; Warner Brothers.

DC is just butthurt for not getting as much as 4 bill from Time Warner.

Did DC franchises suffer in some way when WB bought them?

*cough*
Warner Bros. owns DC

When did WB buy DC? I've seen this being mentioned on /co/ a few times but never took it seriously until now...

inb4Deadpool embargo preventing him from appearing in cartoons.

>>11155880
Get back in your box, DC!

>>11155914

Uh. Have you ever heard of a show called Smallville?

>>11155902

>>11155914
uh...the 90's?

>>11155914
a really, really long time ago

>>11155914
dump, seriously when did WB buy DC?

This must be a huge blow to the capefag fanbase. Their oh so awesome and cool superheroes are now a part of Disney ;___;

>>11155990

>>11155990

Does this mean Disney will start making full-length animated superhero movies?

I think I'd be okay with that.

>>11156002
So is Pulp Fiction

>>11156044
And No Country for Old Men for that matter.

>>11156044
I don't see a problem there.

FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF

>>11156043
You realize they'll probably just use the same formula, right?

"Hi, my name is _____! I'm just your average, every day teenager living a normal life, until one day everything changed! Now I have superpowers! I sure hope I can balance fighting crime and asking (generic female love interest) to the prom!"

Years ago Warner Brothers buys DC and no one cares. Yesterday Disney buys Marvel and they're are sellout.

>>11156044
Moviefans aren't as crazy about that shit as capefags are. If there is one thing, and one thing only, that comes from this it should be that Disney puts their logo somewhere on the comics. Just a little logo right there.
That would make me very happy.

>>11156107

Wow. Okay, that's the one thing you don't want, because if their label is on there, then they have to clean it up.

you guys are morons. You're just straight up morons.

WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS SHIT.
THIS IS A MAJOR CHANGE.
ALL CHANGE IS BAD.

Where does Disney get the money to buy them? I thought they weren't doing very well financially

Hey Disney. Pixar. X-Men. Make it happen.

>>11156170 Disney. Pixar. X-Men
Kingdom Hearts 3 right here

>>11156137
I don't follow any Marvel books and I'm not a fan of capecomics so I don't actually care if they were to cancel every single comic that's coming out of there for all eternity.

They will never do something like that though. I'm with the dudes that thinks that Disney won't change shit about the books or anything like that. But yeah, that logo on the comics man, I want that.

>>11156142
>Change is good. I mean, when Hitler destroyed the Weimar Republic and made himself Fuehrer, Germany's economy had a huge boost. Because profit is the measure of all things, right?

Warner Bros. put their animation studios to work on DC properties and churned out great DCAU shows.

I don't know whether I'll be able to say the same for Disney.

>>11156198

They bought Marvel because Marvel is making money.

>>11156855
Also, say goodbye to the MAX line. Think Foolkiller, Destroyer, and Punisher would survive under Disney?

>>11156646
That also causes them tons of fucking trouble. Every time Kevin Smith tried to put out a film (inb4 Kevin Smith sucks) christfags raged at Mirimax to have the movie cut or changed, simply because Disney owned it.

This is still a dark fucking day for comics.

So I heard there's a new Disney Princess.

>>11156859
Yeah, right.

>>11156810
Actually, it could. There's a big difference in the way Disney does business compared to how WB works. WB has mostly been hands-off with DC, letting them do their own thing while raking in merchandise and movie money.

Disney, on the other hand, is VERY controlling of its divisions. They have a family-friendly image to maintain, and they're very devoted to keeping it going in every brand associated with them.

In other words, Disney is much more likely to step in and force changes in Marvel books. They're much more likely to kid up various Marvel properties. And every Marvel movie is now a Disney movie. Get ready for obnoxious singles by the Jonas Brothers over the credits and toned-down violence.

Disney is infamous in the entertainment world for a reason. They run their company like a dictatorship.

>>11156912
well every corporation is a private tyranny, but in this case its one focused like a laser beam on a distinct brand image.
Although you're wrong about the films, those licenses have been sold to studios and remain there fo whatever the contract term is.
The in-house productions from Marvel Studio however...?

>>11156956
Where do they intervene in their other subsidiaries to try to maintain their family-friendly image?
They only care as far as their Disney line. But under another name? They don't need to worry about their G-rated image. My money is on Marvel NOT needing to clean itself up.

>>11156989
These changes would be nice, but not, they won't happen.

>>11156963

Question, if Disney owns Marvel does that mean NEW SEASON OF SPECTACULAR SPIDERMAN? It's kiddy looking enough for them to support.

>>11156934
Oh my god. Look at this shit.

Disney also owns Touchstone pictures and Miramax. And what good would it do for them if they moralilize everything they touch, including your funnybooks?

>>11156835
oh snap.

>>11156912

Did they cast Captain America yet?

>>11156956
Not to mention that the WB had a large variety of shit on their network, not just Looney Toons and Kids WB. But almost everything on Disney Channel is made for pre-teens and the whole family, and is more often than not the sickliest pieces of shit to ever watch on tv.

>>11157045
I met captain cold at sixflags. shit was so cash.

What some people aren't getting, especially you people thinking everything's going to be kosher. Is that Warner Brothers worked with DC to put out good stuff and WB more times than not works with people to put out good stuff. Disney on the other hand doesn't work with nobody, Marvel is grade A fucked in the ass with habanero pepper hotsauce as lube on a rusty studded dildo.

Say goodbye to Doctor Strange, Punisher, Deadpool, Cable, the Max line, say goodbye to the Zombie-verse, Ultimate-verse with Curbstomping Captain America and everything else that's violent as fuck that Marvel put out. Hell, now we'll never see another Ghost Rider series.

So whats the big deal with Marvel buying Disney?

>>11157004
That simply isn't true, they get a ton of heat from right wing christ fags over their other satellite companies. The moron who posted the clip with Jay and Silent Bob illustrates my point pretty clearly. There was a reason he stopped releasing films with Mirimax.

On the bright side, maybe Marvel will publish some Disney comics?

>>11157133
Like what?

Probably won't change a thing.

Ain't It Cool:

Basically, movie deals are unaffected until licenses expire, at which point Disney/Marvel probably won't renew the contracts with other studios, and depending on your interpretation either there'll be a Marvel movie made by Pixar or more Monsters Inc./Incredibles comics.

UPDATE #1: In a conference call, the companies said that the deals for movies for characters at other studios (Spider-Man, X-Men, etc.) will stay in place under the terms set by Marvel and the other studios.

UPDATE #2: John Lasseter met with Marvel last week about a possible team-up between Marvel and Pixar and got "pretty excited, pretty fast." They say there's definitely an opportunity there.

UPDATE #3: The deal with Paramount Pictures to distribute "Iron Man 2," "Thor," "Captain America" and "The Avengers" stays in place as well, but Disney would like to self-distribute down the line. "When the time comes we'll take a closer look at it."

The idea of Pixar animating Marvel licenses makes me wet.

The Incredibles vs X-men

>>11157192
All right, if what you're saying is true, then I'll believe that Marvel is going to get censored. But censored in the "normal" sense; Marvel will NOT become watered down to Mickey Mouse levels.

Disney bought Pixar and their contract states that Disney can NEVER meddle in how Pixar runs and creates it's movies. Plus Lassetter ended up the head of animation for the whole company.

I'd say wait and see.

>>11157085
You do realize that Disney owns Dogma and the Jay and Silent Bob films right?

>>11157156
>>11157178
Stop cruise controlling you fucking faggots.

>>11157133
Except that isn't true at all. Disney turned out r-rated films through Miramax because no one knew Miramax was a Disney property. That changed as soon as Dogma came out and the general public knew that Miramax was owned by Disney. Suddenly they couldn't make anything provocative.

Well, everyone knows Disney is buying Marvel right off the bat. It's front-page news. Marvel's image is now tied with Disney's. So you can bet they're going to take steps to make sure nothing hurts that image.

>>11157133
Scary Movie does not count as quality. Miramax was good prior to being bought by Disney.
Also I notice that another Disney subsidiary created to release adult material isn't mentioned: Hollywood Pictures.
Its films were so bad the phrase "if it's Sphinx it stinks" was commonly used to refer to its productions.

>>11157265
Kill Bill came out after Dogma you dumb shit.

>>11157195
I can list at least one.
Miramax distributed Kill Bill.

>>11157210
Marvel/Pixar team up sounds like the win of the century.

Great, now /co/ is gonna bitch about this for like the next 6 months.

>>11157265
Yeah I remember they had to cut out the donkey show in Clerks 2.

Oh wait, they didn't. You are just a giant reactionary faggot.

>>11157265
Miramax has released R rated movies in recent years. City of Men, There Will be Blood, Adventureland, etc.

the fucking cops are fucking keen
to fucking keep it fucking clean
the fucking chief's a fucking swine
he fucking draws a fucking line
at fucking fun and fucking games
the fucking kids he fucking blames
are nowhere to be fucking found
anywhere in chickentown

What does this mean for the comics?

>>11157265
Okay, yes, I'll believe that.
If enough people know that Disney has bought Marvel, then Marvel will indeed get censored. Point taken.

>>11157323

Not a god damn thing.

You're all overreacting.

>>11157284
Yes, it did. FOUR YEARS after Dogma. It took that long for Disney to let Miramax do its thing after the Dogma controversy. And Kill Bill was pushed back from its original release date due to those concerns.

Seriously, I know you're just looking up movie release dates on wikipedia to make yourselves feel better, but try researching something ABOUT those movies before posting.

>>11157265

>That changed as soon as Dogma came out and the general public knew that Miramax was owned by Disney. Suddenly they couldn't make anything provocative.

Dogma (1999)

Sin City (2005)

What I really hope is that Marvel has some kind of influence on Disney.

I mean, if they could somehow convince some Disney executives to create animated features with serious stories, I for one would be happy.

>>11157245
You do realise that Dogma and the Jay and Silent Bob films are totally non-threatening to everyone except Alex Jones, right?

LOL @ people who think Disney buying Marvel means "nothing will change."

WELL HEY GUYS WE'RE GOING TO BUY YOUR COMPANY BUT WE'RE NOT GOING TO DO ANYTHING WITH IT WHATSOEVER. WE FELT JUST LIKE GIVING OUT $4 BILLION FOR NO REASON.

Of course there's going to be changes. There are ALWAYS changes when a company gets acquired. The question is how severe will those changes be.

>>11157373

Jay and Silent Bob films got criticized by gay rights groups because Jay kept saying faggot and gay the entire movie.

>>11157386

Changes will made, that's sure, but too many of you are overreacting.

>>11157323
30 comics have already been canceled like Ghost Rider and Punisher. Disney is also doing its own retcons on the big name comics like Spider-Man and Fantastic Four so it can all fight its Family Friendly image. Things are ugly and keeps getting worse.

>>11157210
HOLY CRAP THERE'S A POSITIVE IN HERE-

No more 20th Century Fox Marvel movies! Once the churn out the last of the crap they've developed in a desperate attempt to keep the license, we won't have to worry about any more horrible movies!!!

>>11157415
Er... Nothing's been canceled yet.

>>11157340

Look, I'll admit that there's a possibility that Disney will tightly control Marvel if the Disney/Marvel link becomes too public. That's just common sense.
But if Miramax can release Dogma and Kill Bill even after the Disney/Miramax link became public (even years after), then I'm not too concerned. It suggests that Disney is NOT as extremely tyrannical as some people say.

I cannot believe the amount of overreacting faggotry in this thread.

I, for one, am looking forward to Howard the Duck being allowed to go pantless again. And the Darkwing Duck/Spider-Ham crossover. And the Gargoyles comic. And Air Bud becoming an Avenger.

>>11157386
Most of the changes will be in the management areas, NOT in the properties

You don't see /v/ flipping their shit over Zenimax buying id or Squenix buying Edios

>Seriously, I know you're just looking up movie release dates on wikipedia to make yourselves feel better, but try researching something ABOUT those movies before posting.
The same idiot you're talking to thought that "Hurr, Warner Bros are a big company too" constituted an argument and has fallen silent on the matter after it was pointed out to him that the two companies have--gasp!--different policies.

Fucker's probably a Creationist. The level of research is about the same.

>the Jay and Silent Bob films are totally non-threatening
Yeah, and you can say "fuck" and "clit" in any Disney story. GTFO

>>11157424
So Deadpool, Runaways, and X-Men First Class will be the last movie abortions for Marvel?

DERP.

>>11157454
That's because Eidos hasn't made anything worth giving a shit about in years.

Whereas Marvel...um....okay, good point.

>30 comics have already been canceled like Ghost Rider and Punisher
Source or die.

>>11157398
>Jay and Silent Bob films got criticized by gay rights groups because Jay kept saying faggot and gay the entire movie.
Ah, so Disney pissed off its traditional gay audience?

...What?

>>11157424

Was Iron Man done by Fox? I thought that was pretty good. And I was actually rather excited about the upcoming Avengers movie. :(

Only 4 billion? That's cheap as fuck.
Expect the Xmen to be raplaced with High School Musical.

So...can we have a 'The Tick' uncut DVD boxset NOW?

>>11157454
changes in management = changes in properties.

New managers tend to do things differently than the old.

For example: HEY LET'S ERASE SPIDER-MAN'S MARRIAGE USING MAGIC would not have happened if someone hadn't made a change in management that put Quesadilla in charge.

You're joking, right?

But /v/ did flip their shit over these deals, Zenimax made Id stop OpenGL and Linux development of Rage and Square neutered Enix so bad it's not even funny. Disney just does not produce adult oriented media, they will not allow shit like Dark Reign to ever happen again, Marvel movies will never see anything like Blade again.
MAX is probably going bye-bye.
This shit is scary.

>>implying Marvel is expensive to buy

>>11157443
>It suggests that Disney is NOT as extremely tyrannical as some people say--once enough time has elapsed for the public to forgot that Disney is associated with a particular subsidiary.

>>11157457
Sure, that's it, pick on poor Thor.

>>11157516

Oh crap! Do you think they'd get rid of Quesadilla? I would love Disney forever if they actually replaced him with someone even slightly better.

This is the worst news since EC Comics went under.

>>11157508
Hell no, Iron Man was the first done by Marvel Studios, with help from Paramount. That's what that first post mentioned, all Marvel Studios films (backed by Paramount, meaning all the interlinked Avenger movies) and the Sony movies (whatever Spider-Man movies are left) will transfer over.

Iron Man was Marvel produced. That's why it was so good.

This whole Disney changing marvel to keep their family friendly appearance is funny especially when you consider that most of Disney's top stars have had nude pics of them leaked out on the internet recently.

>>11157463
He is.

Has this news just came out.
I knew about this months ago, the talks began sometime around april.

And as far as I know the contract that the mouse has with marvel is basically: "you make us money, and we wont fuck with your shit. But if you dont make us money then we will fuck with your shit until it makes us money fuckers"

The good:

Having an animated Runaways series/movie.

The bad:

Not ever having Marvel VS Capcom 3.

we will never see this again.

>>11157541
well I think a married Spider-man would be more Disney friendly than a bachelor Spiderman.

Quesada's gonna get fired.

Does this mean we might finally see the '90s X-Men on DVD?

>>11157318
City of Men is a Brazilian film they merely distributed, There will be Blood was co-produced with Paramounts 'boutique' subsidiary Paramount Vantage - in fact Miramax didn't even distribute it in the USA

Yeah, this is not a good start to the week. There are very few good things that could come out of this.

>>11157556
That really has nothing to do with disney or their business model.

>>11157454
>Squenix

You know, I changed my mind. There is a possibility that Marvel is screwed. Despite the fact that Disney allowed Miramax to release Kill Bill and everything.

When Squaresoft became SquareEnix, Final Fantasy went to shit (IMHO). I know it's not the same kind of company as Disney, of course, but it reminds me that big merges and stuff CAN result in shit.

>>11157468
>I have just learned to say "fuck" and "clit". That's hardcore out-there, right?

this means more Squirrel Girl, right?

>>11157517
Disney, like Doctor Who, has a huge gay following for reasons that have nothing to do with the company's intentions.

>>11157519

Stop assuming things. You don't know that.

>>11157519
>Marvel movies will never see anything like Blade again.
Oh, thank God.

>>11157528
Lol, I can wait.

>>11157642

For some reason this made me laugh harder than I have all day. Thank you, sir.

>>11157571
They got the rights fixed and already released 2 volumes months ago with the next volumes already planned.

>>11157454

vidya bro here.. Squenix buying Eidos DID make /v/ flip their shit.. also, it's over, Eidos is finished.

>>11157642
except they promote and welcome it.

Disney LOVES the gay.

>>11157682
How many volumes will there be in total?

>>11157610
They're going to make her cartoony like Donald and Goofy. She's going to get her own Disney comic but the character is going to completely change.

>>11157571

>Marvel bought by Disney
