There is pretty much nothing currently going on regarding the DLR that I'm dying to discuss at the moment, so I'm thinking ahead. Ten years ahead, to be exact.
We are nearly exactly 10 years away from Disneyland's 75th birthday. Yes, the 70th will be here sooner, but the 75th will most likely be a bigger event. I pondered on the 60th festivities and while it was a fun celebration, it in no way compared to the 50th. I'm wondering how Disney can create another quality celebration without it necessarily being a repeat of the 50th (I'm referring to typical things like a new parade, new fireworks show, new merchandise, food options, etc.). I am aware we will most likely get new entertainment, but I hope Disney gives us something that we never got for the 50th, nor the 60th. I want a huge celebration, like the 50th, but I don't want the exact same things we got. Something like this is possible, if Disney tries hard enough.
What are you hoping for the celebration in 10 years? I'm interested in...
-Special events and offerings outside of the parks, around California (preferably Southern California)
-The removal of Galaxy's Edge (a pipe dream, I know) and less Star Wars in general
-Extensive, quality work done to Tomorrowland (updates, removals, new offerings, etc.)
-Same thing I said above, but for Toontown
-Return of SBC's original color scheme, or something close to it (another pipe dream)
-I don't nearly care for DCA as much as I care for DL, but I would love to see Pixar Pier gone (not necessarily the attractions, but the so-called "theme") and Hollwyood Land either gone or significantly improved
As far as my predictions for the future, again, I'm almost completely positive that new entertainment, food options, and new merchandise are a given.
What do you all think? What would you like to see? What do you think will happen in a decade?
