It's business as usual for Fox until the deal gets through. It probably won't go through until 2Q 2019. It's in Fox's best interests to either release it, or put it on Netflix. Either way, they MUST recoup as much as possible. They have shareholders, and shelving a big budget film is a no-no.Dark Phoenix is coming out for sure, but I honestly don't see New Mutants getting an official rollout. that shyt will either be put out on for streaming/DTV or shelved. I honestly doubt the big reshoots happening for it either.
kinda sucks cause I honestly want to see it but
Lowkey the gaming industry helped set the stage for all of this years ago. Charging people 9.99 for xbox Live memberships, 9.99 for playstation plus, charging season passes for any game worth a damn + micro-transactions...
Now we're seeing the carry-over to television. 2 weeks ago ESPN pretty much forced people to download/purchase their $5/month app in order to watch that Terrence Crawford boxing fight.. had ppl who already pay for cable furious bc they were like "why i gotta pay for this espn app when i already pay for all these espn channels?!" I was like damn homie, they doubling down on your wallet like that?
Outside of NBA, I don't watch tv and dropped cable 2+ years ago, and i don't do any of those game memberships. Yet it's been clear what's been happening across all entertainment.

That's what the word was a while back when Disney first announced it. Unless they change their strategy, they basically wanted to start out with a price that undercut the competition to get massive subscriber growth early then raise the price to whatever it is they really want to charge once they have people hooked.
If you staying subscribed to more than 3 streaming video services year round then you are stupid. Hell, even 3 is stupid in my opinion unless you just got Amazon Prime for the non-video benefits and do all your video watching on Netflix and Hulu. Ain't none of the others putting out enough content to justify keeping it year round.Lowkey the gaming industry helped set the stage for all of this years ago.

the fukk is the point of (i forget which studio) holding on to this character now except for spite? every Marvel character is under the MCU except this random dude. you could do the Spidey deal and rake... or you can be terrible and just keep him on the shelf... or even worse, start a Namor cinematic universeNow give up Namor
Someone that hates Disney and every chance they get loves to take shots is somewhere silently mad today.
Only one thing can be said......
I hope they remember you

Isn't the deal approved or not by the judicial system?
OK, but you just changed the subject we were talking about something else. lol
then fukk em. Marvel could retrofit some old shytty comic character and make him Waterman and that shyt would clear half a bil without trying. Then some dorks can cry about how they ruined their childhood hero dikkbag McGee who had a small comic run in 1985 and was instantly forgotton about.Universal aka Comcast
