When the IP crashes.

I say they have about a decade before Disney makes sure that GotG is the lamest most uncool IP on the planet.

The real question is which will get there first? GotG or Star Wars? With the 43 new Star Wars movies, the 23 Star Wars spin offs, the 12 stand alones, and the 9 TV series coming. I think Star Wars will hit the super saturation point first.
As long as Marvel remains in creative control, the success of the MCU will only putter out depending on when the respective actors decide not to renew their contracts. I'm in full agreement with you that Star Wars will be the first to hit that point.

Between the negative comments online and the booing fans at Comic-Con, Disney did not expect such negative reaction to an announcement that was meant to be their highlight this weekend.
No no no, here's where you're mistaken, buddy. Disney did expect it. At this point, after so many years in the business they have to know it would have gone down badly. That's why it was announced at friggin' Comic-Con. Chapek's just too stubborn to realize it's not the best idea in the world. He thinks with dollar signs, not with sense. Like too much of today's Disney. And I hope that changes soon.

I think people seem to be missing a major part of this... Isn't this going to be part of a major Marvel land and not just a standalone retheme?
I don't think the Marvel land is coming as soon as Breakout opens (but I have no connections so hey, I could be wrong). There's going to be a bit of buffer between the overlay and the new land, so I don't think it's fair to bunch them together. Joe Rohde was just hinting at whatever's coming next, nothing in the immediate future.

Sadly what 74 said is right.

Hey, you know how much I dearly hate to say I told you so, but I did see it coming!

OK, gloating over. Besides, I wish I could have helped get the project killed so I take little pleasure in it ... and I'm being told that good, old Tom Amity is taking credit for this one. Great. Amazing how hateful, ignorant and petulant the fan community can be (or large factions ... if I thought everyone or even a great majority of fans were like that then you'd never see me here again).

Let's cleanse the palate and move on to a meatier post.

They plan to have Breakout open next year, there is no way they will have a full Marvel land done in that time.

I was in town for the day to finally meet up with a certain King and decided, what the heck.
