It's official. Disney is the boss of entertainment.

Never underestimate the power of pixie dust, because its charm will sweep you off your feet and subsequently devour you whole.

As of Wednesday at 12:02 ET, Disney won the bidding war over Comcast and acquired 21st Century Fox after antitrust regulators from around the world finally gave their approval.


Expect worlds colliding with pop-cultural mashups for the ages. Deadpool walking hand in hand with Mickey as Ursula battles it out with Aliens won't be weird at all.

Deadpool, along with X-Men and the Fantastic Four, will finally be able to join the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

In celebration, Ryan Reynolds, a.k.a. Deadpool, commented on the merger with his cheeky nod to the mouse.


The prophecy is complete.


Let the mischief began.




The Simpsons's showrunner Al Jean also responded to the news in a manner in which you'd expect.


TV Insider confirmed that 21st Century Fox will still produce the animated sitcom but will continue airing it on the Fox Broadcasting Company.

When you're family, you roll with the punches.





The acquisition gives Disney full control over Fox's entire movie studio division and gives Disney a 60% stake in Hulu.

Fox Corps, however, will retain its independence as will Fox News and Fox Sports.

A vast number of Fox TV shows will now become a part of the Disney family, including, American Horror Story and Empire; and even shows from yesteryear like X-Files and Buffy the Vampire Slayer.

Disney CEO Bob Igor expressed his enthusiasm for the deal of a century in a press release.

"This is an extraordinary and historic moment for us — one that will create significant long-term value for our company and our shareholders."
"Combining Disney's and 21st Century Fox's wealth of creative content and proven talent creates the preeminent global entertainment company, well positioned to lead in an incredibly dynamic and transformative era."

When you're Disney, anything your heart desires will come to you.

On May 16, Boebert attended the Rock N Rodeo — part of the Professional Bull Riding Championship World Finals at AT&T Stadium — an event hosted by Kid Rock.
