Good fuck Comcast.

This needs a comma.

I got ya fam

"Good fuck, Comcast."

Yes it is.
Disney ended up paying about 15 billion too much, thanks to Comcast meddling, which is 15 billion less available for competing against Comcast in the future.


Their money printing machine called the MCU will make that back in short order


MCU movies have only grossed 17 or so billion at the box office. And obviously a massive chunk of that goes to the making, and marketing + taxes.

I know there are other aspects of MCU but MCU alone would probably take a couple decades + to recoup this money in profits.

But its a long term investment and one that cuts out some competition for superhero box office money and the MCU and the benifits it gets from this are only a notable but not massive chunk of Disneys business. They have Pixar, Star Wars, Mickey Mouse, ABC. Their vast trove of existing movies and newer hit CGI films like Frozen and many other assets.

Disney can probably make this back and than some if it keeps it current successes going. It wont be back in a flash. Its going to take a good amount of time.
