Well, the biggest question remains the fate of Universal's Islands of Adventure. Will Universal pay a licensing fee or will it dramatically alter its Super Hero Island? To be honest, I cannot imagine Islands of Adventure sans The Incredible Hulk roller coaster...is is unfathomable.

"In video game terms, RPGs are games that involve a form of separate battles taking place with a specialized battle system and the use of a system that increases your power through a form of points.
Sure, what you say is the definition, but the connotation of RPGs is what they are in video games." - dtewi
I wonder if this will have any effect on the Marvel areas at Universal's Islands of Adventure.
| Majin-Tenshinhan said: I don't think this will affect the actual Marvel comics much, but hopefully it can increase production values of stuff like videogames so we might see a really good video game based off of a marvel property or something like that. At the moment, I'm cautiously optimistic about this. |
My thoughts exactly. If we get better quality movies and games from this deal i'm quite optimistic.
And once again there is once again the lack of understanding that this is about expanding a portfolio to create financial stability rather than changing the other company. Disney isn't here to change Marvel it's to make money off the 14-24 years old where it's had penetration problems with it traditional Dinsey stratgey. "I don't like Dinsey, but I don't have kids." can't more perfectly exemplify why they are doing this.
Squilliam: On Vgcharts its a commonly accepted practice to twist the bounds of plausibility in order to support your argument or agenda so I think its pretty cool that this gives me the precedent to say whatever I damn well please.
So, what will Universal Studios do with "Islands of Adventure", one of their theme parks, which features a part of the park called "Marvel Super Hero Island"?
Lol Disney will be owning part of their rivals now?

Here is Wikipedia's list of key people at Disney
Robert A. "Bob" Iger
President & CEO
John E. Pepper, Jr.
Chairman
Roy E. Disney
Director Emeritus
Steve Jobs
Chief Shareholder
Anne Sweeney
President, Disney-ABC Television Group & Co-Chair, Disney Media Networks
Also (from CNN-Money article):
Marvel Chief Executive Ike Perlmutter will continue to oversee the Marvel properties, which have branched out into animated television series and live- action films. Marvel earned a net profit of $206 million last fiscal year, up 47 percent from a year earlier, on revenue of $676 million.
Basically, this means that Disney has another toy with which to make money. And it is very good at doing that. It also knows how to balance -- it tried to take-over and then compete with Pixar before reaching an accord (which is why one name is on the list above).
