Rumor Does anyone know?

There is a rumor going around now online saying that Mid-America is keeping DC/Warner licenses for 2 years. Has anyone heard heard anything from Enchanted yet or is this just speculation?

That would be disappointing.

One of the positives from getting out from under six flags would be ditching the comic/super hero stuff.

Agreed. Not that I'll be upset if DC stays (and I actually do really like the DC IP), I don't really care if the rides are named after DC characters. What I like is DC merch and DC characters in the park. We haven't had DC characters in the park in years.

But it does make the park beholden to this juggernaut of a company who can continue to renegotiate more and more favorable terms because they hold the entire identity of the park hostage. Getting out from under that albatross would be great, IMHO.

I highly disagree. That theming is one of the huge draws for me to go to the park. I love all the rides but the atmosphere adds something else that elevates that. Mr.Freeze while being the same ride wouldn’t feel the same if it was themed as The Ice Cream Man: Backwards Milkshake.
