Indeed, that's why I'm so interested in the effects of this.
Universal has a theme park called Islands of Adventure and one of the
islands is a Marvel island.
Disney and universal are big competitors, so I wonder what whit happen next.
Is Universal going to change the Marvel island into a different theme,
that's just what happened when Warner Bros. sold a bunch of their parks, or
does Disney have a trick up their sleeves.
Disney has tried to take over the Universal parks in the past so who knows.
The best and most creative attraction at Islands of Adventure (and probably
the whole world in my opinion) is based on Spider-Man. Rumors are already
spreading that this ride might be replaced with a similar one based on
Transformers.
And how will Disney incorporate the Marvel characters, just an attraction
here and there or maybe a fifth theme park???
We'll just wait and see.

I wonder how this will affect the Orlando theme parks if the deal goes
through.
