So Disney acquires MARVEL for $4 billion... well personally I think this is an awesome turn of events. I just had a discussion with a friend about this and they disagreed. He believes Disney will turn MARVEL into a for kids only thing. That Disney will force MARVEL's people to remove the gore and violence and generally take away the edginess of it's comics. He even thinks all the artists and employees of MARVEL will be replaced by Disney workers(which I just said was stupid). And he thinks that the Disney label will scare people away. Well I think he is wrong. I'm not going to into why I think he is wrong but I told you what he told me so you can decide if he is right or not. Alright I'll give a brief summation of what I argued to him. Disney owns PIXAR. People still drink Budweiser and when the AFL merged with the NFL football became America's game. Also Disney isn't stupid, their point is to make money and if MARVEL is making money(which is does better than DC) it's not going to start changing things. Instead they will probably throw more money at MARVEL to encourage growth, development and creativity. We argued about this for awhile but my point is I'm all for Disney acquiring MARVEL. And don't forget how Warner Brothers got DC. How did that turn out?
