I wonder if maybe Disney pulls New Mutants and Dark Phoenix from theatrical release and are instead released as Disney Direct originals as a play to pull in subscribers.

I would assume if that was the case, NM would be on Hulu and Dark Phoenix might see the light of day with Disney Direct as a "Elseworlds" story; with no relation to the Marvel Universe outside of the characters.

They want to attract people, not push them away.

I mean, there are some people that are excited for the movies. Not myself as I don't follow the X-Men stuff too much, but there's enough people that I can see it being something they would consider.

If they still wanted to bank a bit on the X-Men for Fox right now; they would be marketing the hell out of Dark Phoenix (Keep in mind, we are now about 6 months out, which is a bit later than usual for the core X-Men series. And New Mutants has basically been MIA for a LONG period of time.

My guess, is that NM is removing it's X-Men branding, and will be renamed and redone to be just a Hulu film that's only on that platform. Dark Phoenix however..is a problem.,

They could just bury Dark Phoenix and not release it at all if they really want. It doesn't need to be a "problem".

Makes sense and confirms what we've heard talked about. I have to think that if Disney doesn't go after the 61% of Sky, Disney will end up with Comcast's 30% and then they'll have a 90% majority, with the remaining 10% belonging to AT&T (Time Warner).

Apparently, Disney is looking at doing high budget Marvel shows, featuring Loki & Scarlet Witch.

YES! MY BOI LOKI FINALLY GETS A SHOW!

Oh yeah, and Scarlet Witch too.

 

[JungleSkip]

Loki? What else do we need to learn about him? He had a full arc in the films?

Disney Unnecessary is more like it

More Loki is great, IMHO. He’s a great character. It’s Scarlet Witch I worry about.

Does anyone know if the old Disney Channel/Disney XD shows like Gravity Falls, Phineas and Ferb, and Lab Rats will be on here?

 

[AlexanderMBush]

Honestly, thinking of it; and Loki could bring up some very interesting possibilities for exploring more of the nine realms, especially if they do things more in-between Dark World & Ragnarok. Could be a great opportunity to bring Hiddleston & Hopkins onto TV more, especially after Hopkins in Westworld.

I could happily watch more Loki but after Avengers?...

Wow, I didn’t even think about his death in IW. Is this a prequel series?

This all sounds so tiresome.

Imma have to be real with ya, chief: No.

This might get me to buy the Direct service. If it has great original shows and movies, and old Disney stuff, I’m completely down.

But Netflix will always be my number one streaming service. Nothing beats their young adult show lineup.
