Title: Disney May Buy Pixar
Post by: WadeJ on January 19, 2006, 01:02:25 PM

Wow, the misc. section has been busy this week!

I kinda saw this one coming.  I figured they would either bend over for Steve Jobs or just buy Pixar outright.  My biggest fear is ending up with Jobs on the Disney board though.  This guy is bad news.  :evil:

The disney soap opera is always so hard to follow.
