Help universal studios buy the rights to FOX

The Issue

Disney is buying the rights to everything and anything they can get their hands on, and the most recent purchase is all of fox studios. If Disney keeps the rights to fox lower budget films won't be a thing with fox anymore, more "artistic" like the shape of water for example won't be made anymore (or anything from fox searchlight, everything will be a big blockbuster type movie and squeals (no more super original or unique movies from fox) and finally less creative freedom for fox employees/writes (even if Disney doesn't put their logo above 21st century fox films, they'll no doubt tell writers not to put certain things in their movies). With universal studios, while nothing is 100% likely to be the same, so much more creative freedom will be allowed. I'm not playing favourites, heck I don't have a favourite film studio (the only reason I'm , but I just want more fresh ideas and people to let their full potential be explored, and unfortunately if Disney keeps the rights to fox, then it's more remakes/reboots/unnecessary sequels for generations. As a long time fan of movies of all kind, we need more mature themed movies, we need more outside the box type films, and we need more films that don't need to be held back by studio interference. 

 

Look, I know some of you are looking forward to the merge of Disney and fox, mostly because of the fact that x-men and deadpool finally get to be in the MCU, and I'm not going to try to convince you otherwise (I have I few reasons why I don't like that idea, two reasons being it helps the movies feel more like actual individual films and movies like Logan would be a lot more comical and humorous if Disney had a hand in them, even if Disney lets fox keep their R rating), but besides that, consider this: are superhero movies going to disappear if my petition is successful? Are superhero movies all that matter? If my petition is successful, you still get to watch your superhero movies and other people get to watch their movies, it's a win win situation. 

Dear Universal: image the money you could get with this purchase, all the franchises, all the movies and shows you could turn into rides and your theme park and unlike Disney any movie they own could be placed as a ride. Just think about it, all kinds of high grossing movie series and franchises like avatar or predator just to name a few that you could have the honour of co-producing, as well as beloved  TV shows like the Simpsons or x-files that could earn you millions. Since Disney bought fox for 71.3 billion dollars, you could easily buy for more then that and  It would be great for you and cinema fans in general, please consider if you read this message.  

Dear Fox: I know some of you like the idea of merging with Disney, and I can see why, but a merge with universal would be an ever better way to go, universal is a lot bigger than Disney, the general public would be more likely to see you as a bigger deal, your indie films would likely be aloud to continue, way more creative freedom, and more money overall. Honestly if you stay with Disney, things will more then likely go downhill for your company and it's very likely that your studio will turn into touchstone pictures 2.0. 

I'm not hating on Disney, I like a good amount of Disney movies and I do hope they make more movies, but the buying of a major studio worries me as it's one thing to buy a franchise/series, but buying major studios, ones that they used to sometimes compete with no less, is a worrying thought. I say that if we don't get the message across then no big company is safe from Disney, and there needs to be other companies besides Disney owned ones. I'm not playing favourites here, the only reason I'm trying to get universal to buy fox is because it's the only company I can't see Disney buying out, and the other reasons I said. One more thing Disney if your reading this: do you really want to own fox? I mean after all one of the shows owned by fox that's still going (not going to say which one as I'm not pointing fingers nor am I hating on said show) has made fun of your company in pretty mean sprinted ways including implying several times the Walt Disney himself was anti Semitic and having a scene that has Minnie Mouse being forced to take her top off, no really. 

 

I know that there is a very low chance that this will succeed, but those are chances I'll try to take.
