Marvel Disney World!!!


So Disney just bought Marvel for $4 billion. I knew I should have bought Marvel stock!

But what does this mean? This is what we know:

In a conference call, the companies said that the deals for movies for characters at other studios (Spider-Man, X-Men, etc.) will stay in place under the terms set by Marvel and the other studios.

John Lasseter met with Marvel last week about a possible team-up between Marvel and Pixar and got "pretty excited, pretty fast." They say there's definitely an opportunity there.

The deal with Paramount Pictures to distribute five films--"Iron Man 2," "Thor," "Captain America," "The Avengers" and "Iron Man 3"--stays in place as well, but Disney would like to self-distribute down the line. "When the time comes we'll take a closer look at it."


Woah Iron Man 3? Pixar? All this is nice but what I want most is Marvel Theme Park in Disney World!
