| Little news story... Originally, Fox was going to buy Time Warner( Warner Bros., Cartoon Network, DC, HBO, etc.) for 80 billion dollars. As expected, they declined. HOWEVER, since Fox wanted to buy WB, there might be one studio that might go into try to buy it. Which studio you ask? That's right. Disney. First of all, I want to know what Fox was thinking when they decided to buy Warner Bros. WB is 10 times bigger than Fox. And now, Disney might consider buying WB now because little Fox decided to try to buy WB. Let's look at the assets Disney would gain if they bought Time Warner. If Disney bought Time Warner, This is what they'd get:
- DC Comics
- Warner Bros.
- Harry Potter
- Cartoon Network
- Looney Tunes
- HBO
- The CW
- CNN
- Lord of the Rings
- and more...
Can I just say it now? If Disney buys Warner Bros, who knows what they'll do to abuse their power. They'll completely dominate the whole competition. They'll rule the box office. They'll rule the Television. They'll rule your life. They'll rule everything. And that's only the beginning. They'll rule the earth to the point where this happens: - Quote :
- "The prospect of combining Disney's Marvel with Time Warner's DC Comics might be too compelling to ignore, Plus CNN would give Disney the cable news asset it lacks. Disney's market cap as of Aug. 8 was $149 billion compared with Time Warner's $63 billion, which gives Disney CEO Bob Iger more leverage than Murdoch might have had."

I don't know what to think about this, honestly. I don't know if I'd be happy sad, or mad. But one thing is for sure. IF Disney buys Time Warner, there's no stopping her, or taking her down, because being the juggernaut that she already is, she can only get bigger. Also be aware, there is a chance Disney may not buy Warner Bros. This is just a speculation by a lot of major news sources. So there's nothing to be excited/scared/mad about. What do you guys think?

| Guess we can expect songs in every episode of every show. I hate musicals. Right now, I don't completely mind. I'll judge after I see the new Star Wars. |

| well its not like Disney's going to force them to do things fans wouldn't want right, so I dont think anyone's gonna be able to tell the difference. Kind of like when they got Marvel. |

Hang on guys... Don't get you pants in a wad... This isn't for sure going to happen... So what's the big deal? They don't actually need it... so why bother? They won't make star wars a musical If they wanted a news channel they could probably make one... They won't do crossovers... Even if they want money, That doesn't make them evil... Pretty much the batman movies are the bomb diggity... The movies and games have actually changed the way people make games and movies now.. Dark knight and the arkham games... But even that's done... And if you really desire to be away from "the 'disney' man" then go ahead and watch things produced by indie companies... there are more than you can count and i'm sure you won't be bored... Plus, who watches tv anymore anyways? |

| I wouldn't bother with buying Warner Bros., I'd try to buy Fox, rights back to X-Men, Deadpool, bunch of other characters for Marvel. They could also use Fox as another Miramax. |
