New Al Lutz ( Micegage Update )

[PinkBudgie]

I see similar comments every time someone mentions the rumor about Marvel characters or content being added to the DLR or other non-Florida Disney properties. I'm really curious, why is everyone so against it?

I see lots of people saying Marvel is "not Disney". Neither is Star Wars, or Indiana Jones, or Avatar (and I personally am not thrilled at the idea of Avatar's addition). And yet, most people seem not to have a problem with those attractions. Sure, Marvel movies don't have a lot of that warm, feel-good-ness that is often present in "classic Disney", e.g. princess movies, Lion King, Lilo and Stitch, Pixar movies, etc, if that's what you mean by them being "not Disney". But I'd even put Pirates in the same general category as Marvel: they both target similar audiences, contain lots of aggressive action, and some characters that are less-than-heroic or not truly good. And if franchises like Pirates, Tron, Tim Burton-style Alice, and other modern ones can exist alongside the classic Disney franchises within the parks, why can't Marvel?

I'd really be interested to hear others opinions on this.

I was thinking the same thing. If SW and IJ can be there, why not Marvel?

I've also brought up the Star War and Indy thing (and also very meh about Avatar). Iron Man will fit fine in Tomorrowland and to me the Stark Expo thing sounds kinda like Innoventions with another name, which I wouldn't really enjoy. I'd like an E Ticket simulator type ride..or a hybrid like the Terminator at Universal. If they want to use the Avengers more fully then a third gate is called for.
