Terrible news. Really bad for the competition in the industry. Disney has managed to become more valuable than any of its competitors by stripping all of their movies of creativity and only thinking about how a certain movie can fit into a bigger franchise. 10 years ago the 6 'big' hollywood studios had about equal market share, now Disney is in the lead by a huge margin and has bought one of the others.
Even though I didn't particularly like the X-Men franchise, I still highly preferred it to MCU, at least there was a decent movie occasionally, with some creative ideas. Now it will just be part of the generic MCU franchise.
In general I think the world needs to change; capitalism, which has benefited society a lot in the past, is beginning to be a burden. Fewer and fewer companies own more and more, Amazon, Google, Microsoft, Facebook and Disney will soon own everything related to entertainment and world wide web.
