movies/tv What's Disney going to buy next?

[galaxysquid 2,122]

Sadly enough I think they will buy Funimation

 

God no. Not Star Trek. That'll never happen. ;o;

Says you. If anything "consumerism is bad" has been shoved so aggressively in my face over the years, I'm more inclined to defend big companies than attack them. 

Not attacking anyone or anything :T.

That doesn't make any sense. How can one buy air? You can buy airspace in the same way one buys land, but it's not the same thing as buying what we breathe. Besides, they're an entertainment company, why would they buy something like breathable air?

Disney is an insatiable amoeba that seeks to absorb and control all things; they'll figure out how.  They're clearly looking to branch out to new and different things.  Don't come asking me for a hit of my oxygen tank when Disney's stuffed most of the choice air into their Disney air vault.

I'm sorry but I can't control it. We will just have to.... -tiny violin starts playing- Be more addicted to ponies.

Why? Many seem to agree with you on that, and I'm just curious if there was a press release or something saying they were in talks.

Stap. It's simple stap. I want everyone to get along.

The only thing that's left for them to buy: your soul.

I could definitely see Disney taking over funimation.

 

Anything but this please! Next thing you know Disney is going to buy EA games....

[Christmasy Britty 2,553]

i would not say that Disney would take funimation as that anime is a little more adult than what disney normally accepts, however 4kids would probably be a definite buy for them as well as possibly the Nintendo franchise

It's like Agario. You try ot eat the other players so you can be the biggest of the server. Disney will at least try to consume Funimation because a lot of people use it for watching anime.

Cheers mate, anime is not for kids.

You are being hysterical. Disney is a company, one that's made it's mission to bring magic and joy into the hearts and homes of people through entertainment.

Not attacking anyone or anything :T. 

 

Nor am I. I'm just stating I'm more inclined to give Disney the benefit of the doubt. Just because one is powerful, doesn't make them evil, and the underdog isn't always the good guy.

the only anime company that Disney owns is Disney and even then there is no Disney release of Princess Mononoke and they can't because of the fact that there is blood, scary things, and a guy loses some arms

That joke wasn't funny the first time it was said and the third is grating . . . and I mean the third time on this thread.

Hey, Disney can be plenty dark, but I know what you mean. Disney can be dark, but they are never gory, even if there's blood it's minimal. Whereas many anime can be pretty explicit when it comes to injuries.

When I said "Money talks" I really meant that in general. Kinda how the world has really become, since what is being fought for is now mostly money, it was not really directed towards Disney. Besides, buying something doesn't make one evil :T.

I think you mean "stop" but I wasn't trying to start an argument.

There was an argument? I thought it was a friendly discussion?

well also the fact that some anime can be super pervy and full of fan service like panty shots waaaaayyy too many big tits ect i mean i don't mind unless the fanservice is ridiculous but no Disney would not approve at all

I was trying to be silly. o.o

totally got the one piece reference

The world has ALWAYS been about money, back to Mesopotamia. Greed is not a recent vice, there's a reason it was recorded as one of the Seven Deadly Sins by Pope Gregory the Great in 590 A.D.!

 

So again, there's nothing new under the sun. The problems of our modern world aren't unique to it, just new forms of humanity's constant shortcomings. Of which, they're becoming less pronounced as history goes on, not more.

totally got the one piece reference

 

Just for contrast, I thought they were quoting Captain Jack Sparrow. I think it's clear where my loyalty lies.

I agree, but I mean that it is getting worse. That is all I will say for that matter here in this thread :s

In likewise finality my life experience stands in disagreement to that assertion. (And I've seen much of the world in my life.)
