Do you think Disney would try to buy DC?

Could they and would they? I mean they already got Marvel and Lucasfilm it seems like they want everything.

I predict they buy Nintendo next. Then maybe Hasbro. Soon everything we all loved as children will be under the Disney logo.

@Moonchilde: Yep. Then Disney will run the World.

They could afford it but I doubt Warner's would actually sell it, I'd be more worried about Image and Dark Horse at the moment

Disney could buy all of us here.

Soon they will buy Seasame Street, when the Republicans shut down PBS, Godforbide.

Actually they already own all of the Muppets including Sesame Street, they simply allow it to remain on PBS

Disney will simply do as they please.They can buy comicvine for the sake of it and do nothing with it.

I seriously hope Disney won't continue monopolizing other companies to make more money off them. At least ones I care about...

@CrimsonCake: Taking DC away from Warner's may be the only way we'll ever see a Flash movie

They won't get DC since they have Marvel, they should buy LEGO!

@TheCannon: This is true

No.

And I wouldn't lose my sh*t if they did, because I have common sense.

No, because there are plenty of animosities between Disney and Time Warner, specifically between the film branch of Disney and Warner Bros. Both have been at constant odds with each other about the future of entertainment and the media, really.

Let's hope not!

Cyclops fighting side by side with Mickey mouse!!? that i gotta see!!

bump

It could happen..

if the justice league movie fails

or

DC wins the Superman lawsuit(why buy DC w/o the REAL Superman included?) and can create something of value without using batman.

Sadly batman is the only DC property with any actual value outside comics media currently so it's less about Time Warner wanting to sell and more about disney seeing potential value in the characters.

Though i am pretty sure if Disney purchased DC they would claim to OWN the "superhero concept" outright and sue the pants off anyone creating superhero stuff in the future. So it could have some negatives too.

nop

I heard rumors of hasbro but thats all they are, rumors

as for DC

Time Warner will never sell DC cause they know what they have and how much it is worth even though they have no idea how to use it, cases for example the Jonah Hex, Catwoman and Green Lantern Movie, and pretty much the current management of DC editorial

Yeah, why not?

Marvel is not THAT screwed up...like..at all.

Disneyland would be pretty damn awesome! Superman, Darth Vader, Wolverine AND Goofy!

I definitely would never leave!

With Time Warner and Disney being rivals, it wouldn't happen. I wouldn't put it past Disney to try, but there's no success in that factor.

Nope.

I don't see them eating up Time Warner.

I would doubt if Disney would wanna buy DC, I mean Disney wouldnt tolerate half the action that DC has in their comics and so on and I would think Disley would know that alot more people would lose interest in DC.

LMAO. Are you so sure?? You DC fanboys better hope the Superman/JLA franchises take off before DC has to sell to Disney. And whatever happened to the 50% of Superman DC didn't win back?? Maybe Disney will want that in November.

y'know this. Superman is the only valuable property beside Batman DC even has.

Soon, they will consume not only DC, but Warner Bros, and we will see this.

LOL I forgot about some of those guys.

If that happens I will actually stop reading DC.
