• Disney owns miramax and has since the mid 90's and we still got Kill Bill and From Dusk til Dawn as well as plethora of other adult entertainment.

• The main reason why this deal will probably suck balls IMHO is because Disney does not give a flying fuck about fans of its stuff- only about the strict bottom-line (case in point: the third box sets (season 2 part 2) for both Gargoyles and Darkwing Duck will most likely NEVER be released). This is bad because 1.-they won't hesitate to bastardise the shit out of everything Marvel if they believe it might get them more dough; and 2.-if it all goes South, they'll just bury everything, or at least fuck it up royally so it becomes even more of a lame duck for the next owner(s)- because if it can't make THEM money, it sure as Hell won't make anyone else money.

• The first thing I thought of when I heard of the Disney-Marvel deal was this: Rogue will be the next Disney Princess, in a 3D CG animated movie, and she will sing about birds and butterflies with Wolverine and Cyclops doing an innocent ballet in the background, so this could be the most child-friendly Disney family-movie ever. The next thing was: Wolverine - The Musical, now with background vocals by Cinderella and Sleeping Beauty. I'm not sure either of them is good or bad, but I can't get the image of Wolverine walking through the woods with Bambi and a couple of bunnies out of my head for some reason.

• I'm surprised that he cares so strongly about what they do to Captain America, aka Mr. "I Punched Hitler Today, What Did You Do?" And with all the rumors of Walt Disney being a Nazi sympathizer, or at least an anti-semite, you'd think he'd be thrilled. But seriously, what scares me most is that, through these videos, Adolph Hitler is becoming the voice of our generation.

• You know, I found the idea of "Donald as the Hulk" action figure awesome. Have you seen "Duck Cured"?, in that cartoon (one of Disney finest, IMHO) Donald pulls a great David Banner like rage, torn shirt and all and he is ready to smash puny humans!!! And the Hitler meme is perpetually hilarious. And Bruno Ganz is one hell of an actor!!!

• That was great! I've never seen the actual film, I should really get around to it.

• hm... This could mean amazing things for Kingdom Hearts, now that legal channels would be a little more streamlined. Who doesn't want to have Batman kill the shit out of Sephiroth or Kefka?

• Hey karma, "Wake the Kids and Shoot the Neighbors" is my new punk band name.

• *sigh* Y'know... I'm way past fucking sick and tired of hearing about this already. Every goddamn website... even those barely related to films, games, or comics, is going apeshit over this news and--i'm sorry, is it really THAT shocking or apocalyptic at this point? Warner Brothers owns DC. Did anyone freak out this much when Bugs Bunny had the same vice grip on batman for the first few weeks? I heavily doubt it. Disney is less about Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck today than it is ust a fucking media conglomerate... and so, essentially this is about one Media conglomerate buying up another media venture. THRILLING. Whoop-de-fucking-doo. It's time to wake the kids and shoot the neighbors, because Disney owns Marvel. Whoop whoop whoop.... meh. And y'know, this also would have come as more of a surprise to me, had oh.... I dunno... Disney not have released the 90's X-Men cartoon and Spider-Man on Disney XD as well as financing Marvel DVD's and Xbox Live downloads, well before this business venture was even announced. So, I think you'll forgive me if the novelty of this news has personally already worn off in less than the span of one goddamn day, like a house cat growing tired of a tv test pattern. Especially since you cannot escape this anywhere on the internet. Everywhere you go, you see drawings, and photoshoppings of Mickey as Wolverine and Donald as Psyclops and.... I really just don't fucking care. I mean, is that really what people's simple brains immedatly conjure up? That the first thing this means is "OMG WTF CROSSOVERS!!!!!!!" No. It means that one media company now owns another. BIG. FUCKING. DEAL. Like that has never happened before. All this REALLY means is a lot of legal bullshit, contracts, and other boring shit that no one should care about, let alone have a freak out about. But hey, any excuse to photoshop the cast of Mickey Mouse's Clubhouse heads onto the bodies of the Avengers, and slap it on a faux-motivational poster labeled either "Awesome" or "Fail", I guess. Take your pic. In the meantime, I can only say: "Fuck this shit. I'm going back to bed, now." Hopefully by tomorrow, everyone will stop giving a shit about this, and get on with their lives, but I very much suspect not.

• I'm calling it right now, Tim Allen will be in the next Punisher film as Frank Castle, a bumbling vigilante who learns to love again after saving a little girl from a runaway fruit cart.

• I wonder if, when Tarantino's Inglourious Basterds gets its DVD release, the Hitler scenes from that will be subject to the same parodies? As excellent as this scene is - parodies aside, the actor portraying Hitler is outstanding - it'd be interesting to see another take on it. Great film, by the way. Inglourious Basterds, I mean.

• <b>Hey Juice</b> I made the video, and I was just making fun of the people on Twitter who were saying stuff like this. So yeah, there are people that dumb, but the video was just supposed to be satire.

• You know, I just thought of this; DC has Warner Brother financing their animation division. I would love to see some Disney-animated Marvel stuff. Could be beautiful.

• Are people this dumb? Don't they know how corporations work? Disney bought the company, not JUST the company's creative team. Besides, it's Disney. They never screw around with what works.

• I don't see what is so bad about this as well. The deal with Universal is still going to be honored so Disney will have little to nothing to do with Cap, IM2, Avengers, Thor, any other Hulk movies so we don't have to worry about that. The press release said that it would be like Disney's relationship with Pixar which means Disney will leave Marvel alone to do their own thing, just as with Pixar. Not seeing the problem with any of this but that video was truly hilarious. I would like to see a Mickey/Punisher crossover though. I would be entertained by that.

• I never get tired of these Hitler outbursts.

• If only he could've gotten ze fuckin' trees, he wouldn't be so pissed off.

• The fact that I don't have a Donald Duck as a Hulk figure right now is ludicrous. I want that now! And I'm sorry, but I'll take Scrooge McDuck in anything. Again, not seeing the bad side to this.

• I don't actually feel this way about it, but I wanted to make it to poke fun at Disney haters. Thanks for posting it!

• I don't know why everyone is so up in arms over this, Disney buying Marvel could lead to a ton of good things.

• the hitler int he clip is upset for howard the duck and the hulk will now have to wear some more clothes. not to mention the mu. will be disneyfied. and the happiest universe on earth

• And there we have it. The real reason that Hitler killed himself in that bunker was that he saw Mickey Mouse as Wolverine. I've seen so many parodies of this scene; I really should try to see the original.
