That is a stupid move for Marvel.
I hate Disney with a passion, the reason is because in the Disney cartoons there is so much hidden smut it is not funny, look it up on perverted Disney, you will see what I mean.

Dude, Marvel is too violent for Disney. And Disney is already EVERYWHERE, and this is just giving into the power of it! I'm going to stick with the buy-out, however, because of two reasons: (1) I'm a hypocrite with the right info from both sides of the decision and (2) I took a vow to support Marvel in any way possible, and I mean it. I shall support them through this hardship by doing what I have been doing for years, which is buying their comics, going to their movies, and playing their video games

Why are people so worried about this? What has Disney ever done that would make you worry about this? I doubt they'll even do anything to the company. They'll more than likely just deal with them financially. There's nothing you can do about it now anyway so just wait and see what happens.

I might want a disney/marvel zombies crossover (with the marvel zombies killing every disney character) and stan lee frozen.

FOR GODS SAKE NOTHING IS GOING TO CHANGE!!! If anything this is a good thing. It takes away the financial problem Marvel has had (geez they declared bankruptcy a few years ago) plus it opens new doors for new projects i.e. a pixar project based on a marvel hero. I seriously doubt disney is gonna step in just screw with everything.
