Disney-Pixar Studios ?

[Matt]

With the MGM agreement coming to an end... will the name revert to just "Disney Studios" or is their a chance they'll slap Pixar up in the name (once they renegotiate a deal)?

Well considering they just re did all the signs and MGM and they are still MGM and I highly doubt you will see it Disney-Pixar cause that is a partnership and MGM is a sponsorship.

Actually MGM is not a sponsorship. MGM does not pay anything to have there name there. Disney actually paid MGM so they could use the name. The name MGM will be dropped. Redoing the signs means nothing, it is going to happen. That said I highly doubt you will see pixar on the name. Most likely It will just become the Disney Studios.

As I recall, even the current planning DVD leaves out the 'MGM' when simply naming the park the Disney Studios. I doubt they would rename it Disney-Pixar -- even if Pixar is aquired by Disney in the newest negotiations.

Interesting thought about not using the pixar name. I would like to be in the board room for that discussion!

Maybe I missed something along the way, its happened before. I remember reading about the affiliation between Disney and MGM ending last year. It seems like most of the talk was this was happening around the end of June 2005. Nothing ever happened at that time. Is there something new about this out there that I haven't seen? If so, would someone please tell me where I can find more info on this. Thanks!!
