Can't wait to see what happens out of this. Doubtful that it will have any theme park impact since Universal has characters licensed for use in their parks (and they can't use the movie versions of the X-Men characters because they're licensed to Fox). It would be cool if Disney could use their money to bring everything back under one roof.

It gives Disney a foothold in the teen and tween boys' demographic. They say there are 5K Marvel characters that go with the deal and Pixar is looking at an Ant-Man film.

Here's another interesting article on this subject. Marvel may be losing rights to a lot of their characters....
