Fox May Cancel Disney Merger Meeting After Comcast's Big Offer

Comcast has finally made their big push for winning over 21st Century Fox from Disney, and that could put the upcoming Disney merger meeting on ice.

Earlier today Comcast made an incredibly formidable bid take the 20th Century Fox company and other assets away from a planned Disney deal to the tune of $65 million and in all cash. 21st Century Fox released a statement after the bid that suggests the Disney Merger meeting, which was scheduled for next month, could very well be postponed, though no decisions have been made yet (via Deadline).

“21st Century Fox has not yet made a determination, in light of Comcast’s proposal, as to whether it will postpone or adjourn the July 10, 2018 special meeting of stockholders to consider certain proposals related to the Disney Merger Agreement," the statement reads.

The Disney deal was proposed several months ago, but the Disney merger meeting was the time for it to be submitted for approval to stockholders. Disney's proposal committed $52 million in stock for 20th Century Fox, Sky, and other assets, and Fox did say that “21st Century Fox remains subject to the Disney Merger Agreement."


21st Century Fox also added that it will give the new bid from Comcast a fair shake in their official statement. “Consistent with the terms of this agreement and the fiduciary duties of the Company’s directors, 21st Century Fox’s Board, in consultation with its outside legal counsel and financial advisors, will carefully review and consider the Comcast proposal."

This new move from Comcast all kicked off thanks to a federal judge ruling in favor of the AT&T Time Warner merger that launched in 2016. While the Department of Justice could still appeal, Comcast seems to believe the gateway is open and decided to go in with a heavy hand in regards to 21st Century Fox.

Ironically a few days ago Disney sent out a proposal letter about the 21st Century Fox merger, but that looks to be in jeopardy. Disney has deep pockets, so if they wanted to they can increase the offer to meet Comcast's, but there is the matter of all-cash versus stock, something that 21st Century Fox will have to weigh.

'Avengers 4' CineEurope Presentation Footage Description

Yesterday, Disney took the floor at CineEurope in Barcelona to give a presentation on all of the films from the company's various studios. Of course, this included the upcoming blockbusters from Marvel Studios, Captain Marvel and Avengers 4.

Fans have been scouring the internet since the presentation to find out exactly what happened during the presentations, though nothing concrete has been posted. However, the folks at MCU Cosmic have finally shared details from the Avengers 4 and Captain Marvel presentations, and they aren't exactly what we expected.

First of all, the site claims that the rumors about a scene featuring Ant-Man talking to Iron Man about various realities are totally false. The Avengers 4 presentation didn't actually include footage from the film at all. In fact, it was merely a video from Kevin Feige.

The report states that the Avengers 4 video featured Kevin Feige, the head of Marvel Studios, sitting in a chair and talking to the advertisers at the event. He shared a few details about the upcoming film, apologized for having fewer heroes to advertise this time around, and explained that the rest of the Marvel characters would need to band together in order to save the universe from Thanos.


And that was it. Unfortunately, that was the entire Avengers 4 presentation, no real footage at all.

Such wasn't the case for Captain Marvel, though. The studio did have a sizzle reel prepared for the Brie Larson vehicle that hits theaters in March. While there isn't a frame-by-frame description of this footage, the report does state that it included Larson's take on the titular character. The video introduced exhibitors to who Captain Marvel is, explained her various powers, and said that she will be the next face and leader of the Marvel Cinematic Universe heading into Phase Four.

Marvel also showed some footage from Ant-Man and the Wasp, but that's much less of a surprise considering the film arrives in just a couple of weeks.

I like the fact that Marvel is trying

My kids are being raised in an era where every superhero isn’t a white male.

That means something to me *shrugs*
 
Black Panther won best movie, best hero and best villain at the mtv movie awards last night. White folk on fb salty as hell lol

“They should change the awards show to the BET awards not MTV awards”

“Didn't black panther die in the movie? Guess he wasn't the greatest.”

“This was just for the sake of minority appeasement ”

The only complaints I've really seen are that Thanos should have gotten best villain, which is a fair stance.
