Well this could lead to some interesting things: collider.com/disney-fox-deal-marvel-movies/#21st-century-foxFirst it looks like Disney would gain fx and the fx sub channels, nat go channels, and take control of 22 century fox TV and film companies. So hey first Disney on star wars front would have full rights to star wars in we could finally get theatrical cuts of original 3 films. Second this would give marvel studios back the missing marvel pieces in F4, and xman. Though what would marvel studios do with all those xman films already in pipeline. Would they let the xman films stay off on there own. And just reboot F4 into mcu or what. Update: www.cbr.com/disney-fox-deal-reportedly-dead/Looks like talks are off right now. But with how Sony deal turned out. Never know deal could still be on plate in the coming weeks.

I really don't want Marvel to get the X-Men. While the X Films vary in quality for the most part I enjoy them. And I think it makes more sense that they be self-contained anyway. The idea of mutant persecution just wouldn't make any sense in a world where everyone loves the Avengers. And AoS already has their 'anti-inhuman' plots, so it would just be redundant.
Plus there are certain castings (Hugh Jackman, Patrick Stewart, James McAvoy, Ian McKellan, Dafne Keen, Sophie Turner) that Marvel has no hope of recreating.

This would be very interesting on many different fronts. But, something dawned on me too, since 20 Century Fox has the rights to the original two Power Rangers movie, and if Disney does indeed buy them, then that would mean that Disney would once again have some type of ownership in the franchise. Even if it is just those two movies.

Ya with how mcu world and time line is it be hard to take the xfilms and try to shut them into mcu timeline. They would need to be totally rebooted. And added in to fix into mcu. Vs f4 be easy like with spidey. So ua if deal happens maybe let the next few x films be on there own and then reboot xmen in down the road in a number of years. But i Def love to have f4 back in fold. And having fox would fix issues with star wars factors Disney doesn't have. And he'll with the talk if the Disney streaming thing. Getting fix library would give them more to add to that service.

X-men just needs to stay where it's at. The franchise itself has far too many damn characters that it practically supports it's own Universe & there doing just fine with the newer stuff they've been doing. F4 on the other hand......

I don't see a problem if fix wants to sell its assets. If they want to consolidate there comoany. As for the stuff that good for us fans. 1 disney/Lucasfilm would fully controlled star wars. And we could finally get unaltered release of old films fans been wanting. 2. Getting ff and xmen back for marvel. Now ya f4 deal with mcu is easier for marvel studios to handle. Like spider you can easily say they didn't get powers yet and what not. Making them newly powered easy to go. Xmen ya that is the big question mark. Would they just say hey xmen be it own thing. And let say Deadpool 2, a possible 3rd film, a xforce film, new mutants and dark phoenix film get released. And you just let xmen brand be it's own thing. As its far to hard to shove xmen world and anti mutant thing into mcu history. Plus for me I really wouldn't want to shove xmen current continuity into the mcu with how messed up xmen time lines are.
So I rather them be separate and then maybe you can say they are in the mcu multiverse and maybe they could cross over some how. Or the easier deal would be let these next few films happen. Then clean slate xfilms and do a proper add in to the mcu.

To, me it won't really matter if 20th Century Fox is bought by Disney nor if the current X-Men series gets rebooted to fit into the new Marvel universe that Disney had created. Though, I only have one concern and it isn't related to any of the marvel movies that are currently owned by them. Since the first two Power Rangers movies' distribution rights are still owned by 20th Century Fox, and if Disney does acquire the film studio, does that give us a greater or more less likely chance of ever seeing those two movies released on Bluray or 4K Bluray?

I doubt Disney would likely do anything with them. And as for fox studios TV and film work I am sure it still be left as its own thing like lucasfilm, Pixar marvel have been. If anything on the project front if Disney buys fox maybe Saban brands and make a deal to take rights of the old films back.

The Marvel Cinematic Universe began before Disney aquired Marvel. Plus Disney & Marvel could do a better reboot of the Fantastic Four for the MCU.

darkranger237, I didn't know that the Marvel Cinematic Universe began before Disney acquired Marvel so I had no way of knowing that as I wasn't really paying attention to that little detail or just forgot about it.

Ya marvel studios technically started up around 2006ish time frame as there own studio and then got the film's iron man , antman, hulk, captain america, Thor rolling all which started to roll out in 2008. Disney bought marvel as a whole in 2009. But it wasn't to after avengers 1 they fully controlled the mcu films. As ms still was working off deals with universal and paramount. But like Pixar and like the countless other entities Disney owns. They leave marvel on there own to do there thing. And Disney just ranks in the success and money made from all the stuff they own.
If they where to buy fox studios. It likely still be it's own company releasing there slate of films. And what not from kid stuff to r rated stuff like other studios Disney has owned so the kid and family stuff get the Disney banner but the adult stuff doesn't carry the Disney banner on them.
As for the main deal for us geek fans. Is the whole xmen and fantastic four rights. Be great to be back at marvel and marvel control them again. Now f4 would logically be quickly folded into mcu and rebooted to start fresh in mcu. Like what marvel and Sony did with spidey. And like spidey I would bet they just say reed sue doom just all been scientists and Ben in military and Johnny I would want in 16 to 24 years old frame so the Johnny and spidey friendship could be played out.and the f4 haven't been changed yet. So we wouldn't be what why wasn't f4 around for x events.
The xmen that is trickier with the whole mutant hate and what not. With how mcu is and the inhuman stuff already taking that place. I would feel they likely would hold off with the xmen and let the x line stay at fix and do there own thing to after Deadpool 2, 3, new mutants, x force, dark phoenix are released. Then in like 5 to 7 years. Then fold xmen world into mcu as a full reboot to x line.unkess they just leave the x lime it's own deal and we just say mcu is one universe and xmen are it's own universe and we do a crossover at some time.
