Marvel Fans React to Disney and Fox Merger Deal Approval
Since rumors of a merger between the Walt Disney Company and 21st Century Fox emerged last fall, [...]
Corporate Monopoly
prevnextIf you’re more excited for the X-Men and Fantastic Four to join than MCU than you are afraid of a corporate monopoly creating a monoculture and putting the death nail on provocative filmmaking, then you’re part of the problem. Sorry.

Fantastic Four Film
prevnextThe only thing I want ASAP out of the Fox merger deal is a Fantastic Four film. I am a HUGE FF fan. So many amazing stories that they could tell.

Fan Casting
prevnextI’m just putting this out there so there’s a record I can RT later when I’m right: John Krasinski and Emily Blount as Reed and Sue in the FANTASTIC FOUR reboot.
Thanks, carry on.

Post-Credits Scene
prevnextAt the end of #InfinityWar people flipped off the screen because Thanos won.
At the end of Avengers 4 people will flip off the screen because their head canon fantasy of X-Men/F4/Galactus showing up in a post credit scene didn’t happen.

Dangerous Situation
prevnextI have no doubt Disney can and probably will make good X-Men and FF movies. But the danger of this merger has nothing to do with that. It's about one organization controlling the majority of media we consume, controlling who gets to make it and what standards they must meet.

Complicated Situation
prevnextThe Disney/Fox deal means:
- Less creative variety.
— ? (@kingjenlaw) July 27, 2018
- Disney now owns the highest grossing movie.
- The loss of 1000s of jobs.
- Any pre-production Fox project likely being scrapped.
- X-Men reboot (AGAIN)
- Who knows what will happen to Deadpool.
- No more risky/fresh projects.
Give It To Netflix
prevUnpopular opinion: I don’t think the mcu x-men movies would be all that much better. I think the merger will really only give a decent F4 movie. To make a successful x-men franchise, they should make it a Netflix series
