DEN's management team seemed to share my earlier opinions, and took action to make sure that United has good reason to stick through it, at least until 2016. I'm surprised they are flying the Tokyo route instead of ANA, but regardless I was still right in Tokyo becoming a new destination.

The flights to Central American countries are purely leisure routes that are flown with narrowbodies, for a city of Denver's size and might, those routes aren't anything special. Iceland is interesting, but ultimately nothing to really show off, it's only 3x weekly on a narrowbody aircraft to a almost entirely leisure destination.

The feathers in Denver's cap are Tokyo, London, and Frankfurt. I don't see Hong Kong as a possibility, but one of the rapidly expanding gulf carriers isn't that far out. (Emirates, Qatar Airways, or Etihad)

Props to the airport management team for being proactive.
