I can't say I like it, but if they were going to keep putting out stuff like Fant4stic, The Predator, and Dark Phoenix, they were kind of asking for it.

it means we will get less superhero movies and some people don't like that.

they also put out logan, though. granted, 1/4 good superhero movies from 2015 on isn't a great track record, but...

Most of Fox's slate over the past few years has been rather lackluster.

Also The Predator isn't even a superhero movie. My point still stands, it's hard to be mad about this when the film industry is a business, and Fox weakened itself enough to be put in the position to be bought out by Disney in the first place.

Oh yeah I forgot about Apocalypse too.

Haven't seen Fant4stic or Dark Phoenix. I saw The Predator when it came out last year and thought it was okay, enjoyed the visuals and most of the action but found the story overstuffed. Having seen the original Predator for the first time in over five years (and only second time overall) recently I now see how much the new Predator missed the appeal of the original, though I don't consider it a complete abomination like some do and just see it as an executive hack job. It's like it starts as a 6-7/10 movie and then ends a 4-5/10 one.

yeah uh, this

Even if superhero movies get marginally better, that's a hell of a price to pay.

I don't like it either but that's business for you. I'm more focusing on Fox in general than Disney though. More mean to say Fox deserves being bought out.

Good. Rather have all entertainment consolidated into one app instead of paying for a bunch of subscriptions.

Disney has locked hundreds of classic Fox films in their vault since the buyout, thus barring them from public showing, completely decimating many local and independant theaters worldwide.
