Walt Disney Company said Monday it has agreed to buy Marvel Entertainment, the storied comic book company that owns the rights to such popular characters as Spider-Man and and the Fantastic Four, in a cash and stock deal it valued at $4 billion. The deal comes more than 10 years after Marvel was at the center of a bruising and highly public takeover battle between two feisty financiers.
Shareholders at Marvel will need to approve the transaction, which boards of directors at both companies have already approved.
"We believe that adding Marvel to Disney's unique portfolio of brands provides significant opportunities for long-term growth and value creation," Robert Iger, Disney's chief executive, said in a statement announcing the deal.
"Disney is the perfect home for Marvel's fantastic library of characters given its proven ability to expand content creation and licensing businesses," said Ike Perlmutter, Marvel's chief executive officer. "This is an unparalleled opportunity for Marvel to build upon its vibrant brand and character properties by accessing Disney's tremendous global organization and infrastructure around the world."
They even came out with this pictures, although funny but i'd like to see if it could come true
Anyway, I bet they gonna make a whole lots of money.... And i'm looking forward for a Disney's Origin: Goofy.
[SINGLE] Five For Fighting - Chances
0 comments Posted by LightYoruichi at Thursday, August 27, 2009Chances are when said and done
Who'll be the lucky ones
Who make it all the way?
Though you say I could be your answer
Nothing lasts forever
No matter how it feels today
Chances are we´ll find a new equation
Chances roll away from me
Chances are all they hope to be
Don't get me wrong I'd never say never
Cause though love can change the weather
No act of God can pull me away from you
I´m just a realistic man
A bottle filled with shells and sand
Afraid to love beyond what I can lose when it comes to you
And though I see us through yeah
Chances are we´ll find two destinations
Chances roll away from me
Still chances are more than expectations
The possibilities
Over me
It´s about the two to one
Lay your money on the ground
until you crash what have you done?
Is there a better bet than love?
What you are is what you breathe
You gotta cry before you sing
Chances chances
Chances lost are hopes torn up pages
Maybe this time
Chances are we´ll be the combination
Chances come and carry me
Chances are waiting to be taken
And I can see
Chances are the fascination
Chances won't escape from me
Chances are only what we make them
And all I need
Fake
You’re a selfish fake
Everything about you is fake
Everything you say is a lie
Girl was I a fool
To believe you
Save your apologizes
I don’t need them
I don’t need you
Dream
I dream I dream a funny dream
Of roses black and skies green
Of orange trees and purple bees
Of flying pigs and
Dead stars
Of fake dreams and magenta beams
Of black water
And the Equator hotter
Of wired cells
And soundless bells
Of empty streets
And car's fleets
Of loving people and flaming skies
And someone telling me all these are
A BUNCH OF LIES
MasterChief's ride is here, baybeh!
*giddy*
*giddy*
LOL yes that's what I felt when i saw this pictures. Xbox Australia team have bought the the Warthog from WETA Workshop over to promote the launch of Halo 3 ODST. And there's also a Halo movie coming around the corner soon.
This is the puppy that was built for the now famous Halo Movie shorts.

The truth might hurt, but lies…lies could kill.
Lies were like a thief in the night, cloaked in stealth.
They waited for the perfect opportunity to pounce, slit the liar’s throat, and punish him or her for their sins and grievances. It seemed that no matter where a liar ran, to whom they ran , or how they tried to clean up their act…lies waited, leering and gleeful, to exact their pound of flesh. Lies always made the liar constantly look over his or her shoulder, paranoid and restless; even when liars thought they were safe, they weren’t.
I stare outside my window and check on my phone,
Why does it seem like I'm so alone?
I look at the clock then nod my head,
No wonder, everyone's already off to bed,
I tap my fingers on my computer,
I think I actually need a tutor,
That is to teach me how to organize,
My life, my priorities, my schedule size,
PFFT, I think cos I definately know,
It's not like I have a schedule so,
Maybe I should try to do something about it,
Every idea is like a candle that should be lit,
I look outside my window once again,
It looks like it's about to cloud and rain,
I stare at the computer screen for a while,
If I do this every night could I turn senile?
My eyes hurt, I guess I've been online too long,
Time for me to close my eyes and turn on a song,
But what song, should I listen to,
Something upbeat and energetic or something to soothe,
Man, I think that no song seems just right,
Looks like I'm in for no sleep tonight.
