I liked their run better than most it seems. But all things must come to an end.

Welcome home X-Men and Fantastic Four! You're back where you belong. So how many Fox employees did Disney fire just so MCU Dictator Kevin Feige could get X-Men and Fantastic Four into MCU?

But the merger was announced several months ago so this is old news. It wasn't completed several months. It's still news. It's not news. It's just a formality. It would be like saying to someone on January 6, 2017: "Hey, did you hear the big news? Congress just certified the 2016 Presidential election results. You'll never guess who's going to be our next POTUS -- Donald Trump!" Well, everyone already knew on November 8, 2017 that Donald Trump would be the next POTUS. Congress certifying Trump's win was just a formality and not news.

As Disney absorbs much of Fox's film and TV units — Fox Broadcasting, Fox News and TV stations will be spun off into New Fox, headed by Lachlan Murdoch — repercussions will be felt not only in Los Angeles but worldwide. In fiscal 2018, Fox had 22,000 employees across the globe (compared with about 201,000 for Disney). Roughly 7,000 are expected to become part of New Fox. Disney has promised $2 billion in cost savings, so more than 4,000 layoffs are expected (though Disney-skeptic analyst Rich Greenfield puts the number at 5,000 to 10,000 over time). It's harder to predict potential layoffs within the Fox film studio itself, which has about 3,200 employees, but cuts are expected to be especially deep, particularly in overlapping divisions such as marketing, distribution and home entertainment. www.hollywoodreporter.com/features/how-disney-will-make-21st-century-fox-disappear-1182704 |

That's really sad. Would you shut up about that? Had Comcast bought Fox, thousands of Fox employees would have lost thier jobs too. Also, if DCEU dictator Walter Hamada can own all the DC characters, why can't Kevin Feige do the same. |

Goodbye to the mature orientated blockbuster. Welcome to the family friendly, 4 quadrant blockbusters. Yes, goodbye to crap like X3, X-Men Origins, X-Men: Apocalypse, and those shitty Fantastic Four films! |

Yes, that's what happens when a company is so inefficient that they can't maintain themselves and have to sell off most of their assets to stay afloat.
