Reply to comment by PixelPervert in [OC] Movie production companies with the highest total worldwide box office revenue by giteam

Ah...yeah....all of these seem kinda weird, really. Like Marvel Studios IS Disney? No?

They're officially separate, but I'm sure some profits filter through, etc

I had to look it up....no, Marvel Studios is a subsidiary of Disney. Wasn't to start with, but has been part of Walt Disney Studios since 2015...

I know it's a subsidiary, but Disney doesn't put its name on Marvel's movies, nor does it have creative influence (as far as I know)

Yeah but the graph isn't about names on screens. It's about revenue and that belongs to Disney.

No you are wrong. Disney Studios and Marvel Studios are legally different production companies. Which is what the title of the graph says its charting. So technically the inaccuracy is Disney should be divided up further in its various independent production companies.

Nope. Marvel studios is a wholly owned and fully consolidated subsidiary.

So do Lucas Films and Disney but Disney has a Lucas Film movie. Or Pixar and Disney but I am sure they count Pixar as Disney

What counts as creative influence? Because again, then, I return to Columbia and Bond. Broccoli rules Bond with an iron fist, just like the family always has.
