| #4 Disney has let Pixar control their own creative content as far as I can tell. Yes, the content is sort of Disney-ish already but still. |

| #2 I wouldn't bet on it. More than anything else, Disney does things the Disney way. Conform or get out. In past this meant an initial quality product, followed by the lowest order of cheap crap imaginable. This was the hallmark of the Eisner years. Now, the biggest influences are the new CEO Iger, and the chief shareholder, Steve Jobs. |

| #1 I can't agree more. Although Marvel is a public company in its own right, Stan Lee had often been quoted as saying he wanted his own company producing these types of movies because no one else seemed to be capable of doing them "right". The only hope of that happening is having Disney take a hands-off approach and let Marvel stand on its own as a separate subsidiary while raking in the profits. |
