So I know they still have rights to Marvel for the time being, but as progressive as Universal Creative is (ahem compared to the competition ) are there already plans in the works for a complete overhaul of Marvel Superhero Island?
My assumption is this:So I know they still have rights to Marvel for the time being, but as progressive as Universal Creative is (ahem compared to the competition ) are there already plans in the works for a complete overhaul of Marvel Superhero Island?
thanks- what an interesting contract.There is no "time being." Universal holds the rights in perpetuity and have an excellent deal. There are no renegotiations and the licensing fee increases only with inflation. The success of the films has only made the property even more valuable. Since the Disney acquisition Universal has updated the character costumes and The Amazing Adventures of Spider-Man.

Batman island was the original plan and why would they make such a move now? Marvel is definitely more popular than DC at the moment.I think they should re-theme it to DC Island. A lot of directions you could take it from that point. I can only speak for the Six Flags parks in Texas, but they really do lack outside of a few rides named off of Batman/Superman
Everything requires "reasonable approval." If Disney was able to just withhold such approval they'd be making X-Men and Spider-Man films.Are they allowed to build new attractions or just update the current ones?

Let's say DC is reinvigorated, that means Warner Bros. Would not be desperate like Marvel was when the deal was made, meaning they would likely want more money than Marvel gets.I think DC has a richer list of characters than Marvel but Marvel movies are just much better IMO. If DC could make decent movies things might swing their way some. But I don't see that happening.

I just want decent Batman movie, the character is just so ripe for great movies and no one can get it done it seems! And a well done Wonder Woman movie would be great too
What did you dislike about the Nolan films? Would you rather see more of a Frank Miller Batman?Oh I am. I started my fandom of Batman back in 1988 with the comics, and have yet to see a film version that did the character justice IMO. Some of the have just been...bad..
I want a bad*** Batman who is confident, kicking booty on street level thugs and scarring the crap out of criminals How did Keaton get the gig? He a good actor but Batman he is not, same with Kilmer. And Clooney....WTH was that mess????? LOL come on....I don't know who should play him per say but they have not found him yet IMO.
