Anything Marvel themed would have to be done by WDI. I'm on the fence about a Marvel park. On one hand, I do love the comics and movies, and even enjoy Islands of Adventure. I could have a lot of fun at a Marvel park. On the other hand, it's Disney, and I'm not sure I like them going for a six flags approach with coasters everywhere. However, what are they really supposed to do now that they own Marvel? The characters do lend themselves to thrill rides.<<< That's not what I got put of Lee's post... And I would honestly tell younthat Dizney should do nothing, but make money off the merch with them. Don't rely on them to be a creative crutch... Actually make your own characters and stories for YOUR parks.

I don't see it as the uber-secret Tokyo third gate that Leemac has mentioned.
