Quote:
Furthering its strategy of delivering outstanding creative content, Robert A. Iger, President and Chief Executive Officer of The Walt Disney Company (NYSE: DIS), announced today that Disney has agreed to acquire computer animation leader Pixar (NASDAQ: PIXR) in an all-stock transaction, expected to be completed by this summer. Under terms of the agreement, 2.3 Disney shares will be issued for each Pixar share. Based on Pixar's fully diluted shares outstanding, the transaction value is $7.4 billion ($6.3 billion net of Pixar's cash of just over $1 billion).*

I don't understand what you're saying, but yeah, I have heard that Disney was going to buy Pixar. It's really not that unexpected, since Pixar rocks the CG movies, and that's a natural evolution for Disney movies to make.

But seriously, what does your last line even mean.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

All I'm sayin' is, if he comes near me, I'll put him in the wall.

Yup, Disney is buying out Pixar. To be honest, it was about time.

Anyway, yeah, fill me in about your last sentence, RYU, >_>

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Yep. And they cancelled a few Pixar movies while they were at it. A Toy Story one I know.

I was speaking idiomatically.

No cash was involved in the deal. Only stock. Pixar stockholders got 2.3 shares of Disney in the deal. Overall it was a 7.4 billion dollar deal.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

No, they cancelled no Pixar movies. They cancelled a Disney version of Toy Story that they were developing without Pixar (their old contract said that Disney held the rights to making sequels to Pixar movies).

This was, bar none, the best news of the merger.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

He bought his way onto the Disney board of directors. Can't be that bad.
