And the deal has been designed to pass any anti trust scrunity that mi Almost all the reporting on this deal are saying it will not trigger any anti trust action. That is a main reason for maintaining Fox as a separate studio under the Disney umbrella. But that does not mean the Disney will have no say in what goes on at Fox. Guaranteed, even if the X Men remain a Fox production, Kevin Feige will be involved.

It could still fall through, of course, but I think the chances of it's happening are much greater then it not happening. It's not just the comic book geek sites saying a deal is close, but the major news outlets which cover the business world.
-
It's a sure fire bet that the Fox Disney deal will involve shares also. It's standard in any business deal this big. You did'tn just think the Mouse will deposit 60 Billion in Rupert's bank account, did you?

Sorry, but there is no excuse for Singer losing his temper like that......
-
That is a bit too close to the Polanski defenders for my taste.

I suspect the stalled AT and T/Time Warner deal has more to do with any drop in stock value then the JL failure. It's fanboy myopia. Getting back the X Men is no doubt something Disney would like to do, but it's not the driving force behing the Disney'Fox talks;it's mainly about the Fox FIlm library which would be of enormous value for Dsiney in starting their streaming service...

Everybody knows where Mario Puzo and Francis Coppola got the "Your brains or your signature on the contract release" story in "The Godfather" came from. Scorsese needed the Sinatra family cooperation because of the music. You could on paper do a Sinatra Biopic without permission to use his music, but it would be almost an impossible job.

Fox is giving Snger's Truancy as one of the reasons he was fired. No doubt, but I have a feeling it was not the dealbreaker....... Does anybody know how deep into filming they are? I read it was nearing completion of p rincipal photography, but still, the new director, even if he just has a couple of weeks of shooting, is going to have big impact on the film in post production.

A Queen song seems so appropriate here..and we all know which one....

You have to understand, the acceptance stage of the grieving process takes longer with some people.
-
Sure sign of a fanboy: Use of a first name like they were buddies or something. Problem is this has been a recurrent accusation with Singer
-
I would bet that Singer is not returning to Boehmain Rhapsody.

If the FF franchise does go into the MCU I demand they do the first encounter between Spidey and Paste Pot Pete.That is just classic.

Come on Jackson, actually make "The Dam Busters" which you have been talking about for years. It was your dream project after "King Kong". And I want to see what WETA can do with World War 2 in the air..... -

Which means he might know crap about handling actors and story. That has been the problem with many SFX people turned directors. -
Why the hell would Ayer regret making a film when his share of the profits from it probably set him up quite comfortably for life?
-
I don't care if it's the greatest film every made, to become this obsessive about a film is, well, it's not good for you emotionally.
-
I don't like the vault strategy or Disney's seldom discounting their DVDs/Blu Rays,but I can't deny both have been a very successful strategy for them.
-
I think some Fox execs probably agree with you....
-
And if the halt goes on for any lneght of time, the budget begins to spiral out of control. Long production halts are a sure fire budget buster.
-
You can bet Fox execs are right now finding out what other directors are available.....
-
Fox to Singer: "You think the Sentinels in your X Men films were bad, wait until we sic our lawyers on you for breach of contract:" Fox will very likely both replace him then sue his butt for breach of contract...
-
If he returns....
-
Don't make me laugh we will not let your cut go...
-
I expect we will be hearing a annoucement that Singer is gone complety from the film in a few days....
