I like the idea of putting the X-men back in with the rest of the MU, but it's Disney, so characters like Wolverine and Deadpool would likely get neutered in the process. Other than that I hate the idea. Disney is already sterilizing Marvel and Star Wars, don't need them doing the same to Fox properties.

Fuck me. Movie X Men is the franchise i like, the fact it was part of the Marvel U in the comics is irrelevant for me.

Anything involving superheroes or comics is complete shit. If I was running a major studio, I would try to buy all the rights to every superhero and just shelve them, not release anything superhero related ever. It would piss off superhero fans which is a bonus, but it would elevate our entire society and culture by default.

I don't like the monopolization of media outlets, regardless of whether or not I like the company

Don't worry Hwen, this merger won't have any affect on those godawful pakistani movies you love so much. I imagine whatever happens with Fox and Disney you will still billboard every thread with your retarded ass Pashtun Lifetime Movie original signatures/avatars.

You gotta be kidding me Speaker! I feel a bit betrayed that you enjoyed that film, especially considering that you are a fan of Blade Runner Mad Max (the original with Mel) and various John Carpenter/Kurt Russel collaborations all of which I consider good movies. You clearly are more discerning than most when it comes to film and you are trying to shill for Groot and a CGI raccoon? This is very disheartening to me. I guess it just goes to show that you can never know what is in another man's heart...
