Eh I have mixed feelings.

On one hand I am happy that Disney now gets access to other Marvel properties, and extend the MCU, since those movies all have been great.

On the other hand, they also get everything else that was part of 20th Fox, which means that they are slowly building to a monopoly, which generally is a bad thing.

Seth hasn't had anything to do with Family Guy in years except voice acting.

He's successful enough now that he can do whatever he wants.

Disney was pretty much a monopoly already. Devouring Fox doesn't change much.
If anything, this is just going to spark a Warner/Universal merger, or Viacom being acquired by one of those.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't 20th Century Fox just their film studio?

The TV division is a subsidiary of it

Fake news?

I think so. Is is a blog. What it's source? There a quote here from Bloomberg reporting that's three days old, but no new sources confirming that anything new has developed with this story.

Come on, people. Read the article. What reason does it give you to believe these new claims? I sincerely think most of us are better than this.

Disney has been slowly purchasing Japanese studios over the past 5 years, they'll likely have a (near) monopoly on anime at some point in the next 10 years.

There's Disney original anime on Disney Japan XD already. Check out the Lillo & Stitch anime if you can find it.

Disney wanted this for a number of reasons, but non more than for the MCU.

They now have rights to the x-men again and the FF.

People kept asking what they were going to do for the next volume of marvel movies after iron man, captain America and Thor.

Well, here you have it. X-men and mutants colliding with fantastic four and the existing new phase of heroes.

They just provided content for another 10 years plus of MCU content.
