What Comcast Buying Fox Instead Of Disney Would MeanComcast has started a bidding war not only for the acquisition of the Britain based satellite group Sky, but reportedly began discussions to find a way to beat Disney to the punch in acquiring Fox. What Disney Buying Fox Would Mean
The fears go beyond the standard monopoly concerns. Last November, Disney banned the Los Angeles Times from attending press screenings in retaliation for the paper’s coverage of the company’s political influence in Anaheim. Eventually, the company reversed that decision after protests and threats of boycott from other publications. However, for many journalists, the prospect of Disney having further power to exact this kind of anti-press mentality is downright chilling. If they end up holding that much force in the industry – with over 40% of the media under their thumb – then what is to stop them from banning journalists from press screenings or events simply because they didn’t like a critical piece they wrote?MCU has produced plenty of really shitty movies, such as The Incredible Hulk, Captain America: The First Avenger, Iron Man 3, Thor: The Dark World, Guardians of the Galaxy, Avengers: Age of Ultron, Ant-Man, Captain America: Civil War, Doctor Strange, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2, Spider-Man: Homecoming, Thor: Ragnarok, and Black Panther. But the reason critics keep giving good reviews for those shitty MCU movies is because Disney bullies them by threatening to ban them from press screenings and events.

We already know you are dense and stupid, and that your reading comprehension skills are non-existent, so why give us more proofs of it?
Disney bullies critics into giving good reviews for MCU We all know this is not what the article says, and whoever comes here to argue against him about the clearly intentional bad interpretation, just want to be as dense and stupid as DC-Fan...

If Disney is so willing to bully critics and journalists into giving Marvel movies good reviews then why not bully them into giving good reviews to A Wrinkle in Time, the two Alice in Wonderlands starring Johnny Depp and Anne Hathaway, or the Angelina Jolie led Maleficent? What about Pixar's Cars 2? Mars Needs Moms? The Pirates of the Caribbean sequels? Tomorrowland?

DC Fan, you don't win the fight by doing the same to them that they've been doing to fans of DC since way back. In your attempt to defend DC it you who's becoming the troll now. Stop. They'll turn on each other soon enough. Every empire falls.

The title of your thread bears no relation to the content of your post or article. Keep trying. Don't worry. Aquaman only several months away and then you can wallow in it's immense success and predict certain Oscar nominations

I know he's a moron, but part of me wants to see his response to this. Might be amusing, might be cringe-inducing.

You know someone has laid a real turd when the conversation immediately turns to the topic of ... Is this idiocy genuine? ... because it's difficult to believe that anyone could really be that stupid.
Some folks elicit this sort of conversation nearly every time they post.

You are why it’s so hard to come here on the MCU forums. You,summers8 and Tristan,Dennis Reynolds and all you are so damn stupid. You aren’t trolls you’re just really damn stupid.
We get it you don’t like Marvel. Good for you guys. We don’t care just stop lying about the quality of the movies and how you think Disney is paying off critics when they’re not.
Also nothing will happen with the Comcast bid. You really think Fox is gonna turn down Disney’s offer? Fuck no. Also the deal is going through next year.

Nothing was mentioned about Disney bullying publications into giving good reviews. That was merely a hypothetical.
I do think they have some bullying behaviour though. Wasn't there a thing when Star Wars and Hateful Eight came out?

See, this is what I was talking about the last time you were here... Last week when Infinity Wars was released we were all here having a gay old time discussing the movie (no, not that kind of gay- well, maybe a little bit of that kind) and everyone was discussing and dancing and celebrating all things MCU with unicorns and sunshine... But where were you? Nowhere to be seen! But now, when you have a chance to wage a fanboy war... here you are charging into battle! Its disgraceful! ...INNIT?
