Depends on how much Disney keeps and how much they choose to divest. They're still trying to arrange a horse-trade with Universal to get the Hulk distribution rights back (and all the Namor rights). They've hinted they'll be selling at least part of Fox's Hulu stake to Time Warner and Comcast to keep the ownership balanced. Fox Searchlight is ripe to be spun off into its own studio. Et cetera.

Plus, the deal isn't final until the FTC and FCC weigh in.
