If I invent something and lend it to Jim, I should have the right to ask Jim to give it back. Lending theme park rides, areas and attractions would be a difficult thing to pitch. Look at the stuff with Nintendo and Universal. That agreement was signed years ago and the attractions still aren't ready. If Universal can't be guaranteed some sort of exclusivity why would they bother?
