So faintly this means there are multiple options.
Disney may buy Pixar....
Or...this one confused me....or Jobs will sell it himself and get an executive position in Disney...
Or....what?
What does this mean exactly for us?

Whoa. That's almost scary when you think about it. I knew that the two companies did a lot together but the thought of Disney buying Pixar seems so......arg!

I just can't see that happening. Fine, a few years ago when Pixar was a small company, but now...? Pixar are a film giant in their own right! They're doing even better than Disney! It just doesn't seem possible for Disney to buy them out.

Disney isn't going to buy out Disney. I made this post weeks ago, before the news of yesterday's agreement between the two. Also, in the article is was stated that this was a "speculation" on the part of investors, a rumor if you will, as to one scenario that MIGHT happen. Fortunately, it turned out to be false.

Now, if you'll excuse me, there's a plague in Equatorial Guinea that I have to attend.

Alright, I sincerely hope it doesn't come to Disney buying out Pixar. I seriously doubt that Pixar would stand for that, though. As you pointed out, Lizard-girl, Pixar is it's own film giant. Why should they drop rank and become simply another one of Disney's studios? They want a bigger cut of the profits that they make - I'm sure that they wouldn't achieve that by being bought out. (why does this bring parallels to the merchantile system and the reasons for the American revolution to my mind?  ) |
