Possible Closing Theory

This might as well be filed under "Nope, it closed because of ____" but I was wondering, could VMK have been closed by Disney because of contract issues from things like Nightmare Before Christmas or Pixar? I know they are pretty much owned by Disney, but could something have happened there?

Just thinking out loud...

I would think not, as, like you said, they ARE pretty much owned by Disney XD

But, if so, I would think it's because they realized that letting VMK use those bits of intellectual property was just going to get them nowhere, as Disney decided to sit on all of VMK's potential.

But, that could be the bias in me speaking XD

Pixar is a sub-company of Disney, I believe, so that can't really be a reason. Even with that, they could have just taken out all of the items relating to Pixar :P.

Actually, Disney does not own all of Nightmare Before Christmas. They sold it to another company.

Ya know~ this brought me to something... If you have stocks in Disney, didn't you own part of VMK then? You own part of Disney when you buy stocks.. Suspicious...
