Disney aquires 21st Century Fox

21st century Fox has been acquired by Disney for $52 billion. As part of this deal, they finally got the rights to the X-Men and the Fantastic Four back, just in time for Marvel's Phase 4. This also means that Disney can freely rerelease the previous 6 Star Wars films on Blu-Ray without consulting Fox. It looks like we might soon get a Blu-ray boxed set with every single movie after all. And hopefully the bundle will include the sequel trilogy when the time comes. What are your thoughts? Also, I bet Deadpool will get his own Netflix series once the X-Men make their debut in the MCU. Update: Disney now owns The Simpsons, Avatar (Pandora at Disney's Animal Kingdom now makes sense), and a big chunk of Hulu. Update: Holy F**k! I just now realized Disney now owns Alien. I wonder if this means the Guardians of the Galaxy will fight Xenomorphs in a spin off one day?

    Holy shit how can anyone approve this acquisition? Disney now basically controls everything. This isn't even about comic book movies. I'm talking about all the networks associated with Fox. Jesus. Where's the FTC on this? edit: apparently Disney now owns 40% of all movies, and 40% of all of television. Holy shit.
