Back when Marvel was on the verge of bankruptcy? This would mean that the films made by Fox, Sony and other s wouldn't exist. But everything would be under one studio with the added bonus of DC being able to crossover.

But everything would be under one studio with the added bonus of DC being able to crossover. Honestly, I'd say no thanks to that. First we'd miss the entire MCU as is, because nobody else had that vision. Even if they did it, it'd be lower quality. And even if it wasn't, I'd rather it be than have a DC crossover series. I really would. Please don't read this as me being a jerk, but I wouldn't view that as a bonus, but more of a waste of time. I'd rather get something that offered a progression to an overall plot, which is one of the main reasons I like the MCU and not the idea of a bunch of standalone films.

WB have their hands full with DC already. If they had acquired Marvel Studios they would have probably given more freedom and artistic leeway to Marvel so that the final products look less Disneyfied and formulaic.
However, I would find it more interesting what Fox would have done with the MCU. Would they integrate or assimilate the MCU, would we get an Ironman finale like with Logan? I would readily give the entire MCU for a handful of real classics some of them R-rated.

The way that superhero movies were done before 2008? Basically still that but one studio in charge.

WB didn't have the courage to put real effort into DC's own characters aside from Superman and Batman for decades. The odds of them doing anything with Marvel is next to nil. The only reason they started putting real effort into DC's other characters these days is thanks to the MCU doing the work for them.

You and I have had our differences in the past but you haven't done anything for me to label you as a jerk lol. It's true that there wouldn't be a MCU, but that's what makes this interesting! There's so many possible outcomes and on top of that who's to say a different version of it wouldn't exist?

There's so many possible outcomes and on top of that who's to say a different version of it wouldn't exist? I actually enjoy having differences, and I often do express my opinions strongly.
I suspect WB wouldn't have done much with the characters. If we're looking at it honestly, the DCEU wouldn't exist at all if the MCU didn't because WB didn't have had the vision for it. So I don't think they would have done much with a marvel universe either. That's why the DCEU is also not as good, because it's a half assed effort to try and capitalize on the success of the MCU, which is also why I don't support it. If they were committed, it would be a different story, but all I can see it as is a lazy money grab, and frankly the whole thing offends me. I actually would feel embarrassed walking into a DC film for those reasons and I'm not kidding. I'd feel like a tool.

There would have been no MCU That means formersamhmd would've applied the full fervor of his Aspergers to Transformers. You mean there's a timeline in which none of us has endure his one-note trolling?! Rats. DAMN YOU, Warner!!!!1

There would have been no MCU At least an MCU under Disney. What is this fricken hate for Disney? They aren't stupid. They have pretty much been hands off on Marvel. They bought a successful franchise. Why the hell should they muck with It? It would be like buying McDonald's & changing the secret sauce formula on the Big Mac or changing the McRib to chicken meat.

I haven't had another one. It was ok.
Honestly there are tons of fast food places I'd go before McDonald's. It's better than burger king or krystal's or something, but I'd much rather go to an Arby's, Chic Fila, Sonic, Pollo Tropical, Panda Express, and even Wendy's has a much better burger quality and selection and far better chicken nuggets and the fries are solid. And then there are places like Tropical Smoothie, Qdoba, Pei Wei, etc. McDonald's is one of those places I only go if I'm in some small town with like two options and one of those options is an outhouse.

Marvel's idea was pretty amazing, but it didn't exist before around 2005. www.hollywoodreporter.com/features/marvel-studios-origin-secrets-revealed-889795So WB almost had Cap but this guy blocked it & Marvel came up with the MCU.

The Big Mac is it for me. Their meat is cardboard-flavorless. The sauce is what makes the product. But it's iconic. Known around the world. I can't stand slurpees, but 7/11 sells a ton of them. So same concept. Someone buys 7/11 & eliminates the slurpee as too unhealthy to exist. You don't muck with a working formula. I'm in SoCal. We have In-n-Out. It would be like them installing freezers.

All I said was there wouldn't be one owned by Disney if Warner Bros bought Marvel. This whole thread one big "What If?" Like the comics!

Their Netflix shows might be, but definitely not their feature films.

My first impression was that it was definitely good, but I didn't get the herd gotta have it aspect of it.

Their Netflix shows might be, but definitely not their feature films. Depends on which character got a movie. The Punisher requires a R rating, Ghost Rider could work as a PG-13 film but would be better as a Team rated film and Blade HAS to be R!
