Guy's it's supposed to be more like a metaphor fro the idea of Marvel mixing with Disney at all.

However, it also shows that maybe we could see Disney characters next to Marvel characters, in merchandise, the parks, or maybe movies or television! And it shows how wrong or funny it all looks.

Super Aurora, I posted it in case anyone here hadn't seen it, because I saw that no one else had posted it here. I checked. I will always like you, but sometimes your comments can be kinda insensitive. Wah.

Despite the acquisition and Disney's ruthlessness with synergy and general exposure, I highly doubt there'll be anything as silly as in that drawing (sure, I know that it's hyperbole). I think everybody feels that the Marvel characters and the traditional Disney characters go together like chalk and cheese, and Disney, despite some blips in licensed merchandising, does treat its characters with more dignity than a lot of other studios (hence why I highly doubt we'll see a CG-live action Mickey movie like how Warner Brothers are planning Alvin-esque movies with a CG Bugs Bunny and Speedy Gonzales). I doubt that we'd see any standard ensemble merchandise mixing the two universes together, and any Marvel merchandise in the Disney Store would probably be kept to a small concentrated pocket as with the Muppets or the Power Rangers, coexistent but not flung in randomly with the standard Mickey and princess stuff. Equally I doubt that we'll see that great a mix of Marvel and Disney characters together at the Disney theme parks, and I think they'd be kept away from the exclusively DAC-based stuff (Fantasyland, Toon Town etc); view it like how Star Tours exists, and how Star Wars characters sometimes come out, in Tomorrowland at Disneyland and Hollywood Studios at Disney World, in very concentrated yet reasonably fitting areas, away from anything to do with Snow White or Peter Pan.

And a cross-over movie/TV-series? Well, I do doubt that of all things. Such a stupid idea that I don't think anyone would want to go through with it. :lol:

^No surprises there.

Now that I'm comfortable with the pic, I gotta say, some look like they could go hand-in-hand. It's actually quite funny-not because of the differences, but because of the simularities. All the characters from either universe seem to have found their equals in the other except for Dash, and the clearly alienated Princesses.

Edit: scratch Dash. He found someone.

Edit Again: Why is Hannah Montanna in there?

I believe Hannah Montanna is in there to be the Disney version of Dazzler from the X-Men comics. Dazzler is/was a singer who used her mutant powers to create flashing lights etc. during her performances (never mind using them to fight as well from what I recall)

Disney stops Panini Comics creating all-new content with licenced characters.

As the post says, it seems like a decision which will ultimately harm Marvel/Disney in the UK than benefit it.

Marvel's VFX Talent Pool Is Dwindling as Artists Avoid Working With the Studio

An In-House VFX Studio Won't Stop Marvel's Problems
https://www.cbr.com/marvel-in-house-vfx ... blems-mcu/
It is the poor planning and production ethos of higher-ups that end up offloading ridiculous amounts of work onto overworked artists, who are not being fairly paid for their efforts. Marvel Studios creating an in-house VFX company does not solve the issue; it instead potentially marks a new cycle of abuse for artists.
