I really am gobsmacked. So much so that I'm using the word gobsmacked. This is some of the craziest news.

I mean, maybe I should be excited? Disney has the potential to do what Lucas has proven incapable of...

Really, we should have bought Disney stock yesterday.

I hate that Disney continues to buy up every shred of childhood.

In part, I think it signals the atrophy of new content creation.

There's just perpetual copyright ownership by a single corporation of all popular content from the last 80 years.
