That's a well-thought out contract! Where did this idea of expiration come from in regards with what was said earlier in this thread?

I think Disney will skip right over the 5th gate and go directly to a 6th.

Nice try. I think such a move would be blocked by Federal regulators under anti-trust laws.

Logical. I could see this happening...
Yep!

What will happen is DAK will eventually have lands based on Star Wars that will show off alien animals from the Star Wars Universe, in addition to Avatar. It will get a name change when this happens. It's new name...
Disney's Alien Kingdom
I would have to imagine that there is a clearly defined list of which characters belong to which "family" and not something so arbitrary as "this guy appears in this issue and was part of the team so Disney can't use him".
I mean, can you imagine a comic writer pitching a story to his editor?
Writer: So Daredevil joins the Avengers...
Editor: Nope, we just got his movie rights back. If you put him on the Avengers, then Universal gets his theme parks rights and then the big bosses can't put him in the Florida parks.

Battleship anyone??? That could be a cool ride... bring back a 20k overlay!

Hopefully they include a new shark exhibit guests can jump over.

Can't. Sharks are Marvel characters.

1. Nope, there is not. It's very loosely defined because no one anticipated Disney would ever buy Marvel. Obviously Universal wanted the flexibility to include new characters should Marvel create a popular new X-Man or Avenger.
2. Daredevil has joined the Avengers. He's also considered part of the Spider-man family.
3. Nobody in the studios gives two flips about the theme park rights to Daredevil. Or what is going on in the comics for that matter.

See, even though I may have some unpopular opinions, I do enjoy having fun and making jokes about them...Not this one:

Misinformation.
1. I can't believe they would do that but I guess it's possible.
2. I know. I actually work in the comics industry. I was just giving an example.
3. I don't know what that has to do with what I said.
I thought I read somewhere that the contract went through 2050. I could be wrong.
Doesn't this part answer that question?

Once THE MARVEL UNIVERSE opens within the above time period, the term of this agreement shall continue for so long as a THE MARVEL UNIVERSE shall remain open (and operated consistent with the standards of the next paragraph below) at any Universal Theme Park (allowing for temporary closures for force majeure events or refurbishment/maintenance provided they are being diligently pursued), except for termination for material breach (with written notice and a reasonable opportunity to cure).
Each THE MARVEL UNIVERSE shall be operated and maintained in a first class manner consistent with the highest standards of the theme park industry and shall be deemed “open” only when operated in such manner (subject to temporary closures for force majeure events as described in the prior paragraph).
