Disney should had got back the rights

"should have"

...And they didn't, end of.

If you're going to take the rather sad tactic of attacking someones spelling or grammar instead of their actual argument, you should endeavor to not make grammatical errors of your own whilst doing so. I felt my high school English teacher rolling in her grave at that last attempted sentence.

@ the OP - this thread might be more appropriate, we've been discussing this subject in depth for a great length of time.
 
The OP didn't make an actual arguement, just a statement.

Your English teacher would be disappointed in both of us.

Which you ignored in favor of attacking his spelling. Classy. Thanks for proving my point. :up:

edit: Actually I was wrong. You didn't ignore it. You were outright dismissive. That's even worse!

Honestly, I don't think they (Disney) should get the rights back until the MCU fixes their own problems.
 
Like Fox doesn't have significantly more problems :funny:

Yeah, the MCU is clearly the lesser of 3 evils. I can honestly say that I've never outright hated a MCU film until IM3. Whereas with FOX and Sony there's too many to count.

At least giving Disney the keys to the whole city there wouldn't be any excuse. (WB)

Well there is a difference with the MCU vs. Sony's and Fox's....when I am watching the MCU movies, I really do feel like I am watching a Marvel Universe movie...part 616 part Ultimate...regardless, it feels right...there have been some changes, some great, some not good (Mandarin), but at the end of the day, I love what Disney and Marvel have done. Spiderman 1 and 2 felt right, I liked Amazing..but none the less F4 needs to go back to Marvel...period.

I totally feel the same way.
 
Fox would have to be stupid or just plain arrogant to not realize that most fans don't want this film being made. I'm beginning to think they would take a deal with Marvel in a heartbeat but Marvel isn't dealing because they're hedging their bets on Guardians of the Galaxy and feel getting the FF back would be a windfall.

Here's a thought: What if all of this is just Fox posturing in the hopes of making a deal with Marvel and if it doesn't work out then they will let Trank just go and make a sequel to Chronicle? After all that's what this reboot sounds like to me anyway.
 
In what scenario does Marvel get the rights back at this point?

What if FF isn't ready in 2015?

Nobody knows! It's a maddening mystery.

However, many of us strongly believe that 2015 is the make-or-break release year for Fox. If Fox doesn't release an FF film then the first family comes back home to Marvel where they rightfully belong.
 
I read somewhere that the rights revert back if Fox doesn't start filming by fall 2014.
 
Also if FF bombs I'm pretty sure Fox will be ready to let the rights expire or simply hand them over to Disney.
 
I don't see FF doing big numbers in 2015. The year is the most packed one we had in a while (Avengers 2, Star Wars 7, Batman/Superman, final Hunger Games, etc.).
 
Everything we've heard so far about this move has been terrible.

Marvel will end up with the rights again.
