Where the hell is Disney getting all this money? lol. Marvel, Star Wars, now Hasbro? Well at least with Disney there's a small chance MTG can actually have their turn to get a badly scripted, badly cast, CGI-riffic theatrical release.

Well Disney has been a huge money monster for a while, no surprise there. Also [insert Avengers Movie is Disney's overdone comment]. Buying Hasbro would not be far-fetched for a company that already has its name in tons of toys.

In the end, people see Disney as mouse ears on top of stuff. I see it as a company with successful business models.

If Disney bought Hasbro they might start actually putting money back into MTG. It's by far Hasbro's most profitable endeavor and Disney has the money and sense to turn that stuff around. They certainly couldn't do a worse job than Hasbro has been doing.

Before Curse is able to buy Hasbro though he's gonna need Wizards to fire Mark Rosewater, but it needs to look as if it's Wizards idea, not Curse.

Gonna point out that Disney just marketed the shit out of the Avengers. Did it need it? Maybe not, but it didn't hurt it either.

Also even though Hasbro owns Wizards, when the fuck are the Magic action figures. They never made them. THEY WERE NEVER MADE!

The only Disney Compartment that didn't turn a profit this quarter was the Video Games.
