Again Disney has more to offer fox board and fox wants disney. Vs from places I read Murdochs don't like Comcast and has more hurtle they would have to go through.
As for if we where speaking of just the film/distribution rights for fantastic four and xmen characters. Xmen yes if Comcast did end up winning and folded 21st century fox and the studio itself didn't exist any more then yes marvel and Disney would get the xmen rights back. As the deal marvel gave to fox back in 90s is only valid as long as fox itself is still a studio/company.
Fantastic four is a slightly different deal. As fox only had distribution rights to the fantastic four films. The studio containstine films holds the film rights to fantastic four. And currently they are on verge of going bankrupt and will cease to exist. So like above as studio who hold rights if they don't exist as said studio the old contracts would be null and marvel would then gain things.
So in the scheme of things even if Comcast some how ended up to buy fox and pass govt stuff. Ya disney wouldn't get 21st century fox TV and film studios, the share of hulu, sky, fx and nat geo channels. They would likely still gain ff and xmen characters.

Disney is gathering cash to improve the Fox bid.

I don't want such strong consolidation of media under one roof. I hope Disney loses.

Going by regulators Disney is more likely to pass then Comcast would. Plus other things Disney is better option for the murdochs then comcast. But ya we will just have to see.

another thing i do think is a factor is most reports i have read since we heard of comcast wanting to put in another bid/offer. Is that comcast doesnt necessarily have the actual cash to spend. And trying to score up funds from lenders and backers. Where as disney has money and could easily have more if needed.

Well that is surprising the att tw one passed. But let's see if that merger fully ends. As for the Comcast and Disney bid for fox. This probably going to get interesting. Still hope Disney wins out. As reasons I mentioned before.

Ya saw that would be a nice win win for both. But ultimately I rather see Disney win. We will just have to see what happens.
