One word: noooooooooooooooooooooooooooo.

Disney to buy Marvel for $4 billion

Well, there goes the rest of the Avengers series. Disney's the kiss of death for superhero movies. Unless it involves a teenage Kurt Russell. In tennis shoes.

Well, the X-men and Spidey movies did really well financially, though their allegiance to the Marvel canon was less than impressive. Indeed, the recent Wolverine movie didn't even stick with the history of the first X-men feature. Regardless, money was made.

There's an interesting reference to the Pixar folks being excited, though. I imagine Pixar special effects would go a long way in improving the line.
