It's still theirs and is raking in money. And they had to build the was majority of it.Mercury wrote:They bought the MCU.

Disney bought Marvel in 2009, they simply aren't responsible for most of what Marvel has done.

Right. The films, up to at least Avengers I, were already in development before the acquisition. And besides, Disney didn't create any of the characters or most of the story-lines.
In the comics even, the characters are all old or are derivative of older characters. Disney hasn't really created anything, as far as Marvel is concerned.

Re: Disney's Beauty and the Beast gay controversy
Yeah, I think they were very easy to sell because they say "Marvel" on them. Before the MCU began with Iron-Man, Marvel properties were already established as successful film subjects: X-men, Spider-Man, Blade, Daredevil, Ghost Rider, Hulk, Punisher, Fantastic Four (some of these movies were crap, but they made money). The success of these projects paved the way for the MCU: Iron-Man, Cap, Thor, etc. still before Disney's acquisition.Hwen Hoshino wrote:You think GOTG is easy to sell or Dr. Strange?Mercury wrote:Right.

Disney bought a slam-dunk cash-cow. To make money, all they have to do is grease the wheels for any Marvel-to-film venture, which is what they've done (and they are good at that).

Just saw the film. I can't honestly say that the controversy is well founded... that LeFou character's only real homosexual moment was about two seconds in a ballroom in a pan shot. Any other spot in the film he seemed just the hopelessly sycophantic follower, not the actually-in-love gay guy.

Re: Disney's Beauty and the Beast gay controversy
And now you're too poor and lazy to raise your kids without government handouts. Why am I not surprised that a Millennial wannabe parent is too helpless to get by without government welfare? Interesting how people who suckle on the public teat are always the most whiny about how they aren't being given enough stuff for free. People make decisions about what is important to them in life, and adults then accept the consequences. Man-child types like you do so and then whine that the world isn't fixing all their problems for them. I miss the times when men were men and took responsibility for their decisions and their lives. Unfortunately now all we get are pansy MRA types who get all weepy that the world isn't handed to them on a platter. It is sad when a rage-feminist goes off on how hard life is, but when a mad does it one just feels disgusted. Is that unfair to you poor MRA types who just want to be coddled like a stereotypical woman? Maybe a little, but I have a hard time feeling sorry for sniveling weasels.SilverEagle wrote:The nearest private school is 30 miles away.

If you can't afford a private school, both parents work so home schooling is out, or a private school is not available then yes you are FORCED to send your kids to government school at the threat of a gun. Don't play dumb Nuke. Oh an no it's NOT a free country Nuke. You damn well know that.
