So, You Want the X-Men in the MCU?

I think the market would easily support 4 Marvel movies a year.

One spring, one early summer, one late summer, one winter/Christmas.

The only question is: could they make this many films and keep the quality up?

Could have done that with Star Wars if KK and Rian Johnson hadn’t fucked things up. I was perfectly happy with Rogue One and the trajectory they were going, I was going twice a year and really enjoyed the Star Wars experience, then TLJ ruined it.

Disney just shut down Fox 2000.
They made “Hidden Figures,” “Life of Pi,” “The Fault in Our Stars,” “Love, Simon,” and “The Hate U Give”.
I guess there are other venues for indie awards pictures, but having one less isn't good.

Fox will only make 4 movies a year, and Alien might come to TV.
In-development movies are being scrapped all over the place.
More jobs are being lost.
It's a massacre.

I wish they’d just do Neil Blomkamp’s Alien 5.

Disney needs to release on Blu-Ray the theatrical cuts of Star Wars, Empire, and ROTJ.

It will make money like crazy for them.

I'm thinking the House of the Mouse is becoming a bit to big.

You will make our entertainment options your own. Resistance is futile.

I heard all the fired employees are getting generous 2 year severance packages.
So, no one's going to have to eat green garbage burgers behind the Burger King dumpster
Still, damn.

I'm betting a good portion of them will have recruiters from Netflix and Amazon offering them jobs soon enough.

Oh, I left it out because it's not to do with Marvel, but Disney says to expect lots more Alien, Predator, and Planet Of The Apes.

Alien and Apes were dead in the water under Fox, but Disney needs to start making that 70 billion back.

I hope we get Neil Blomkamp's Alien 5.

Disney in talks to absorb Hulu. https://gizmodo.com/it-looks-like-disney-is-poised-to-take-over-hulu-1834314237

If it stays Hulu, and doesn't get digested by Disney +, then they still have a place for Defenders-verse shows to go, and possibly continue.

Save for the fact that they sold all the props, so I don't think we can expect that stuff to continue without a reboot.

What, are they made of unobtanium? Build new ones.

It's like going back to the Moon. We've got all the blueprints for the original hardware, but it makes more sense to just ignore a lot of that and start from scratch. Don't get me wrong, the team that put together Daredevil on Netflix was fucking perfect. But that ain't how shit's going to work if it goes to Hulu. Disney will want their own people in charge of things, and won't be willing to dangle enough money in front of the execs at Netflix who were involved in the project to induce them to move over, so we'll get someone else, and they'll have different ideas than what we've already seen. Not saying it'll be better or worse, but just that it'll be different out of necessity.

And there's whole parts of the Marvel catalog that haven't been tapped into for TV or movies that Disney's likely to look into. They still get paid if I rewatch Daredevil on Netflix, but they get a larger chunk of money if I watch something related to Dazzler on Hulu. Why should they build up the Daredevil universe which includes programs that can only be found on Netflix, when they can do someone like Dazzler entirely on a Disney owned property? That's if they decide to allow continuity between Netflix and Hulu series. If Daredevil on Hulu exists in a different universe than Daredevil on Netflix, which is more likely to get more viewers? The series that ended, or the one that keeps on going?

I'd watch a Dazzler series.
She was criminally underused in the Earth 616 X-Men, IMO

You guys know that Disney already has a controlling ownership interest in Hulu, right? It doesn't matter if they buy more shares of it. It's not going to give them "more control" or anything.

Hulu sucks anyway, I pay for it and never really use it.
