about Marvel’s stock price back in 1997 and it was pretty much bankrupt at the time. Well, Marvel as it has been known is now over. Disney ruins everything they touch. Well, Marvel as it has been known is now over. Disney ruins everything they touch. Mark Cuban sure looks like a genius for getting 5billion for his company. Can’t believe they sold to Disney for 4billion. Robin – what, exactly, does this have to do with technology or the internet in ANY way? This is a complete
what this means to Universal Studios. Having been building their website the past year+, we’ve only just opened the public preview (http://bit. I am only wondering how they are going to get Sony and Spiderman untangled, as well as Universal and some of their theme park attractions. BTW, I am a recovering comic book geek and have not had a comic in 15 years. Just every freaking one of the movies. Disney has about as much creativity as an oil refinery. Seriously though, Disney is a sausage
for children and women in the medieval period were less than that of men but wealth gave people a serious advantage. Nubile women were very valuable when you consider how many died in child birth. What kind of egalitarian stories can you expect under those conditions? We’re certainly in a different time and we certainly need new tales for ourselves and our children. Why waste your time on these relics and old cons? Write some new stories. Be the inspiration for our children. It’s
will remain status quo at the House of Ideas. Just a larger parent is now skimming from the till (and footing the bill). Disney knows a thing or two about brand recognition and fan base. It's why they shelled out 4 billion for Marvel. They're not gonna go in and mess with that 4 billion. It seems everyone is afraid they will make it Disney, but Disney itself admits the purchase is to diversify their demographic wallet-share. Besides, Marvel already makes a kid-friendly line of comics called
and with Marvel it just got interesting. Games, clothing, action figures, and more with a Disney/Marvel relationship will be amped to the highest. I keep hearing all this is bad and such but think it over Marvel has got a great deal with this merger. Disney just put the whole film and theme park deals on notice. I think in the weeks ahead Disney will unveil the list of what we can see coming from this deal. I expect that through this Disney will air all Marvel films on ABC Family, Disney Channel,
X-Men Danger Room theme. If Disney can keep Jean Grey dead, I’m all for it. I’m wondering what will happen to the Universal Theme Park in Orlando, Islands of Adventure. They have the Hulk, Spiderman and Dr Doom rides there. They are probably the biggest attractions at the park, too. hopefully they can go out and spend more than one movie to expand on some of the characters. The worst thing about the last spiderman was the number of characters, 1 villain per movie. >>>

A great deal of odd comments here. Look, Iger is a very smart fellow. These expensive adventures with Zemeckis all trace themselves back to Cook and his team. No question that Iger recognizes that this purge was completely
that already existed and made it their own, within the original framework. Brunner consider characters like Wendy, or Mulan. or more modern disney female roles, like in pixar movies. Pixar's stories tend to be brand new and not recycled. So, females characters aren't held down by their pre-feminist/ woman's suffrage beginnings. There are no fairy tales about someone getting a job, working hard for twenty years and buying the company. There are no fairy tales about marrying your school sweetheart

By tech standards, their content should be free, giving it a valuation closer to zero. Marvel and Disney never drank Richard Stallman’s kool-aid and thus retained their sense of value. Yeah, I’m surprised there isn’t any mention of say Marvel’s digital strategy (they recently released their first comic on iTunes) versus
