Disney buys Marvel

Seeing Disney already ruined themselves with the garbage known as High School Musical(I won't diss H.M because Miley is hawt), I was kinda skeptical, but hearing that relieves me a little.

And just like that, my headache's back...:shakefist
 
Man you guys overacting.Disney so not going to be the creative force for marvel,marvel can do that them selfs.it is pretty much going to be the way how WB bout D.C and look how that turn out.of thows how think oh there going to watereddown just like they did with power rangers will power rangers was watereddown since turbo.the only thing am concerned is the Comics Division of marvel,well it be outsourced? since we know what happen to power ranger When the production was moved to New Zealand.
 
Marvel vs Capcom.

With Sentai, Black Rx, B-fighter.

Ok, so More like power rangers, masked rider, and beetleborgs..

but get past the name and it would kick ass.
 
When I saw a picture of Micky Mouse wearing a Spider-Man outfit, I knew people were going to freak about this.

Especially since how Disney has done a fantastic job with the Power Rangers series (not).

They can?

The last few years have seen them depend on nothing but shock value and moraless junk for the angsty over-thirty year old shmuck rather than tell a decent morality play. The writers don't care anymore, it's like there bored with or without the rulebook in front of them. Bendis, Morrison and Quesada's foundation layering made that universe frickin' inaccessible and perpetually depressing. There are no heroes presently and there are certaingly no stories, only bad, VERY bad, fanfiction that appeals to nothing more than continuity whores, not fresh readers nor impressionable ones.

As much as it was obviously trying to be, Marvel is no longer obligated to present itself as the Miraxmax of the comic industry. . Marvel are universally recognised as a company that produces iconic superheroes that have seen proven success in young and older markets. They have animated series that are aimed at those demographics. Thier comics HAVE to match this. A toning down isnt a bad thing in Marvel's case.

They NEED to tone down, and they WILL tone down. They need to find themselves again and respect what brought their characters to the dance in the first place. The out-of-character Emma Frost, Scott Misrables, a devil-dealing Spider-Man, the Superhero Registration Act (...hmm...maybe, maybe not), and Wanda's "No More Mutants"-carved faux reality OUGHT to go, and I gurantee you if Disney so much as sneeze in the direction of that horseshit, it WILL go.

The time has come for Marvel to grow up and face respnsibility. I sincerly hope people take advantage of them now having to answer to corporate interests, and I hope fans flood the company with requests for changes to be made. It might not happen yet, but to say it'll NEVER happen is just being prepostrous.

I loathe Marvel's current state quality wise, but they have been trouncing D.C Comics for years if you look at the general consensus and marketing numbers. D.C may have the better stories, they may be finally catching up and beating the overrated idiots at their own game, but Marvel expanded their brand independently better than W.B has EVER done with D.C since the aqquisistion.

Aside from the GL movie in pre-production (we'll see how that goes), all W.B have peddled out succesfully the last ten years has been frickin' Batman, Batman, Batman...erm...Batman, let's see...Batman, and a bunch of half-hearted direct-to-DVD movies that really havent been all that good. They cancelled JLU because it reached the 65 episode syndication limit, they axed Legion of Superheroes just as it was aqquiring a fanbase and a JLU-level of quality (thery had DEMATTIES writing episodes), and they have done nothing with their other heroes. All that effort into the direct-to-DVD movies could have went into new series.

Marvel, succeed or fail, expanded their brand and had more diverse series out, more or less all based on their big leauge draws Fantastic Four, Spectacular Spider-Man, Wolverine and The X-Men, Iron Man: Armoured Adventures, the fact W.B have spent this long SITTING on D.C's big draws is appauling

Miley is not from HSM :laugh: :P

I believe he was saying, in the parenthesis, he abbreviated Hanna Montana and said he wasn't going to bash it because Miley was hawt! It was totally separate from the HSM comment, me thinks... O_o :laugh: :)

What the hell?! Disney is taking everything I know and love and ruining it!! First Sentai, then the Muppets, and now MARVEL?! :bawling: Don't they have enough of their own stuff with HM and HSM?! Damn! This is turning into one freaking terrible monopoly if I ever saw one! >:(

Seems TMNT is the only thing safe!!

In closing one word...NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!! :bawling:

These are my sentiments exactly! And much needed, too.

I think that Disney should have a bit of influence towards Marvel. The quality of the comics is horrible. Joe Quesada is doing the comics a lot more harm than good. So I think the comics division needs an overhaul.

As for DC, Batman casts a really giant shadow over the DC Universe. He's become really boring, proving that Marvel is far more versatile than DC. Why? Beacuse Marvel has MORE THAN ONE POPULAR CHARACTER!!!!! You have Spider-Man, the Hulk, Iron Man, Wolverine, etc., etc.

Meanwhile, all of DC's other characters are left to languish in quasi-obscurity. So much can be done with them, but because of the Almighty Bat, it's a missed opportunity of epic proportions. It's really, really, really, really sad.
