Marvel on the chopping block?

I don't think it is. The USJ contract had an expiration date (that's why it closed exactly 20 years after opening) but the Orlando contract is infinite.

But I think if they designed a full retrofit of the attraction (which I believe is an exact copy of the Florida version) then that design money is better spent if it is then cloned in Florida. Universal loves clones more than Syfo Dias.

We don't know what the replacement for USJ's Spider-Man will look like, but more importantly, they aren't going to shut down MSHI just for the sake of cloning it, especially when they aren't legally obligated to do so. Whatever money you'd be saving through existing R&D is immediately going in the trash because you then have to retheme an entire land that hadn't been hurting the bottom line.
