First pizza of the new year soon!

No, I don't honestly know. And that doesn't make much sense to me. They bought out Marvel too, and look at the direction it's heading. People are more interested in comics, due to the success of the movies. Yes those movies were "in the works" beforehand, but Disney is taking responsibility for Atom Ant, Black Panther, Deadpool, Avengers 2, Iron Man 3, Captain America and Thor 2 (at least I believe all of those titles are now under their jurisdiction and weren't in the works before the buy out).
Okay, so I beat Taurus Demon easily... then get roasted by a dragon. Not fair. :<
Also met Solaire! :O

I'm glad they bought out Lucasfilm. I can't wait for the new Star Wars movies (and games?). The Star Wars universe has so much potential and Disney has done well with other movies, I don't think they'll destroy it since the fanbase is huge. If they piss off the fans they'll have thrown a ton of money away.

I'm not so much worried about their capacity or sense of direction as I am about so many franchises and industries being under one roof. Over a long enough time line it can siphon out a lot of creative intuition and risks necessary for great outlets of media that stand out from your general high budget blockbuster stuff which is what Disney has covered very well.
Art, they are hardly going to be a monopoly in the entertainment field though. There are FAR too many mediums, and companies for there to ever really be a monopoly in music/movies/video games.

It is still daunting. But that's just me being a worry wort. We'll have to wait and see what truly becomes of it all.
I think of it like this. Disney has some really great ideas, as does Marvel (I'm not a fan of lucas arts once episode 6 was released in 83... *** episodes 1-3 and the only good Star Wars video games was Shadows of the Empire for N64, and Empire Strikes Back for SNES hehe). So why not get the great minds of both companies together to make good stories or under the fat *** wallet of disney, to hire great directors for their visions?

Because more than anything, Disney is a business. Their status quo and bottom line is money. Which over a long enough time line can shroud creative interpretation when it comes to production and getting great but risky ideas off the ground. But I'll leave it alone, as I noted already that it's far too early to say anything right now.
I liked the Force Unleashed and the Jedi Outcast games :O 1313 looks amazing too. Even though Disney bought Marvel and Lucasfilm I think they'll let them do their thing and not give them too much direction so they don't screw up the franchises.

my question is: you ever get a chick to cosplay as Yoko?
better yet, I'm sure a lot of people wonder how one gets laid while owning a Yoko shrine.

We will be doing the Yoko cosplay at some point, she wants to dress up as Mizuharu from Girls Bravo first though.
As far as how to pull it off... I honestly don't know. I stopped cutting my hair and shaving and I put on 30 pounds and then bam, sex. I don't understand it at all.
I know this is bringing up posts a few hours old....
I've started cutting my hair, shaving, losing weight and have gotten fewer dates than before.
This makes no sense. Good for you though, sounds like a solid and fun relationship based on mutual trust and understanding and willingness to explore. Cherish that ***, bro.

Yikes, I haven't checked guildwork since they made that auction check feature cost a premium. So I just use FFXIUtil now. Is it still a good LS and friend communication portal?
why would Disney buy Bleach?
so many better stories out there, and not like they do a bad job at what they do get their hands on...
Totoro, Castle in the sky, Spirited Away, etc.

Curse me and my theoretical worries.

I got Golden Grahams, Trix, and Apple Cinnamon Chex.

Definitely Golden Grahams. I didn't realize Chex made an apple cinnamon flavor either... weird.

Until you see things like this:
Jedi's of the Caribbean: Curse of the Death Star

They kind of went all out on their flavor choices. I think they also have Honey Nut and even Chocolate. Hell, I was content with just rice, wheat, and corn, but this works for me.
