Walt Disney buys 21st Century Fox Assets, X-Men Joining Marvel!
Will X-Men and Fantastic Four be in The Avenger?
It was announced on December 14, 2017 at 08.15 am, confirming rumours started last month, that Fox will sell itself off to Disney. Now that the deal has indeed become a reality.
According to the MSNBC report that broke the rumour. The reason is because fox felt unconfident competiting with Google, Amazon, Netflix and Facebook, That's why Fox want to sell off to Disney. And Disney already owns Marvel Comics, Lucasfilm, Pixar and ESPN, was decided to be a good choice, the company now taking ownership of Fox's film and TV productions, produced under the banner 20th Century Fox.
Disney would own the X-Men, the Fantastic Four characters franchise and the other like Avatar, Alien, The X-Files and The Simpsons. I guess Avatar 2 (or, less likely, Deadpool 2) wouldn’t be the first $1 billion+ grosser outside Disney or Universal since Transformers: Age of Extinction back in 2014. Since Disney already owns ABC, I don't think it'd be allowed to own the Fox broadcast network as well, although it could get the cable channels (like FX) and enough of a stake in Hulu to make it Netflix’s primary rival whether Hulu becomes Disney’s de facto streaming service or not. So it could well be Disney vs. Netflix vs. Amazon vs...
Fox Currently owns the X-Men, Deadpool Fantastic Four franchises. But this deal would allow for infinite crossovers with characters that populate the Marvel Universe like Iron Man, Thor and Captain America.
With Hugh Jackman already having out of the Wolverine role in this year's "Logan" movie and the X-Men franchise spinning off into a variety of different timelines and character confusion, it could also be a good opportunity to press the restart button on the X-Men as a whole. And trying once more with Fantastic Four, which has barely survived three disastrous movie efforts in the past decade.

It's an interesting move considering Marvel's success and how everything has been going for them. this move could backfire as well! but nothing can go as bad as the lastest Justice League movie! I've posted a critical analysis of the film. Read it and tell me what you think?
Yup, this deal would allow for infinite crossovers with characters populate the Marvel Universe like Iron Man, Thor and Captain America and spinning off into a variety of different timelines and character confusion
Exactly. But deviating a little from Marvel here and taking this to DC. what do you think DC did right or wrong ? i have posted my analysis! but it'd mean a lot if you give it a read and post what you think there ?
