It was the independents that proved there was money in small quirky films, foreign films, horror and science fiction and they have all been co-oped by the big boys. They proved that films didn't need big stars or big budgets and now none of them can make a film under 15 million or have the nerve to go with unknowns. I find it sad.

Marvel has a very heavy presence near, but not at, Disney World.
