Proves even more that Disney doesn't think its a failure.

Peak wait times under an hour? Sure, OK.

Cross-promotion is often used to create more awareness, not because something is doing great on its own.

Except if it was considered a failure they wouldn't be spending loads of money on a new season of an animated series that expands the same story line.

Well, I will respectfully disagree with that.
Disney is recognizing that they're stuck with MB due to the forthcoming Marvel Land and will do whatever they can to keep MB in the spotlight until they can put their efforts into another Marvel franchise.

Except Disney is WELL known for letting things languish if they feel its a failure. So to keep building on the same story indicates they feel its a success. If it wasn't deemed a success they would have planned a different story line for the animated series.

Craptacular and pretty sad considering the other thrill ride, Screamin', is down for it's own cheap and fast overlay. 30 min is a good wait time though if there's nothing else to do.

Back in the day, there were many days where you would find ToT with that wonderful' 13 Minute' wait sign out front (i.e. pretty much a walk-on). I have not seen that once since MB came in. While max wait times may have died down and are on a level comparable to what you'd see on a busy day at ToT, I don't think the minimum waits are ever coming anywhere close to what was formerly seen there.

Maybe they're building on the same story because they have to. I think most of this decision making happens before they know the outcome of the attractions success/failure. Especially in animation. These shows would have had to be greenlit years ago.

It got green lit last summer. This was the same time the some claimed management saw it as a failure. If it was seen as a failure the animated series story update to include Mission Breakout wouldn't have been green lit.

At least we will be able to buy copies of the show in the MB store.

For all we know, they were probably under mandate to keep the Marvel alive in DCA and on TV. Disney will never come right out and admit things are "failures". But Summer of Heroes was a total bust.

They're "stuck" in the sense that even if MB was a total dud, they couldn't just say "oops" and turn it back into TOT. It has to uphold the Marvel name until the rest of the land gets created.

I will admit that Summer of Heroes was a bust. But I don't feel they believe the attraction itself is a failure.

Well of course they don't. Because they're the same people who think that Pixar Pier was a good idea. lol.

So then you admit this idea of it being a failure is all from the fandom that hated the idea in the first place. Management doesn't feel its a failure.

I agree its largely a fan-based idea. Obviously, we don't know what thoughts are behind closed doors. But I still think they're determined to milk it for everything its worth in an effort to justify its existence.
