Yesterday Disney announced that they would be buying Marvel Comics. You know, the guys behind X-Men, Iron Man, and Spider-Man? So they actually purchased Marvel comics for 4 BILLION DOLLARS!!!!! Holy cow that's a lot of money. But what, get ready to pick up your jaw again, because they bought it with CASH!!!! I'm talking a whole lot of green people! The final transaction was made with stocks and cash on August 28th.
What will this have in store for both Disney and Marvel? More movies coming out faster? But one thing is for sure, the actors will be getting a much bigger check! The Marvel movies will now be advertised on Radio Disney and Disney Channel (probably) and Disney movies through Marvel.
Another very important thing to consider is Marvel coming into the parks. If it would go anywhere, it would be in Hollywood Backlot. A 3-D movie thing would be sooooo AWESOME!!!! And since California Adventure is going under a huge re-model soon, how long has this been in the works. Have they been planning this for a really long time?
I'm a DC Comics person myself, but Marvel will be brought even higher than DC Comics in the next years. I think more movies will be made, more advertising will be done in both venues, and things will be stepped up on both sides. I'm really looking forward to what Disney and Marvel have in store for each other.
