[maroonmol]

Everyone on this board will agree about one of Disney's decisions.

... Maybe that's too wild.

Avatar will be a huge flop and eventually replaced with FernGully overlay.

Nice find.

Wild Prediction- The Muppets will continue to have a presence in the parks. This will make one person here, not saying who, apoplectic with rage.

 

["El Gran Magnifico"]

Ok...but they won't be popular...sadly, I think I will be right (don't shoot the messenger):

1. Nightly "Resort Fee" at all Disney owned hotels.
2. Increased Pricing on AP's with more restrictions.
3. More "Hard Ticket" Events
4. More benefits for staying at Disney owned properties..which will come as a result of gradual price increases for all Disney owned hotels.

Disney will have quick payday loan kiosks at all the park entrances offering low interest loans to buy tickets.
Food and wine festival will offer the smell of a food item for 5.00
Hypnosis will be offered in lieu of new Epcot rides, you can be made to think you saw a lot of new Epcot rides but in reality they have all been shut down years ago.

1) Dinoland USA will be changed to Archaeology-Land. Dinosaur will be overlayed with Indiana Jones Adventure. This will require way more investment than the original $14 used to build this area.

2) Ellens and M:S will be shuttered and combined with WoL to create the largest Starbucks/DVC kiosk in the World. Drive-through will be added later to accommodate the scooter to pedestrian ratio (75/25) .. Requisite IP will be Wall-e based.

3) Every park will have hard tickets for meeting special characters who don't normally roam the parks. Proposed name will be "We have the MEETS".

Prediction: despite the fact that Mary Poppins made incredible money at the box office - a lifetime gross of $102,272,727 as of this writing - the parks will continue to pretend that the movie never existed and was never nominated for 13 Academy Awards.

At least Disneyland still give more love to Mary Poppins.

Zika virus will become so controlled or eliminated, that the only time you'll even hear the word mentioned is in discussions along the lines of: "remember back in 2016 when we were worried about..."

I have been off the boards for a few days; did not take this thread long to go really negative.

Wild Predictions

1. Pandora will surprisingly open with no major flaws, due to Disney actually having a soft opening in the early summer of 2017
2. SWL will open to record-breaking crowds, forcing DHS to close its gates early, forcing people to go to Epcot (in which nothing has changed at Future World)
3. SWL will get a third attraction greenlighted a year before the land opens
4. Disney will somehow buy the rights to the Fantastic Four from both Fox and Universal after the Doom attraction closes at IoA, and will create a Superhero land consisting of Guardians, F4 and Doctor Strange
5. DCA will open an actual Marvel Land in 2020.
6. Dinoland and Dinosaur will be refurbed into an immersive Dinosaur park
7. Epcot will gain 2 new countries (India and Ethiopia), and will add rides to Germany, Japan, and France.

Coach Boudreau will lead the Wild to the Stanley Cup Finals.

Bible land buys Disney World and re themes all the parks.

Throw enough Benjamins Iger's way and this could happen, Heck he tried to sell WDW to Prince Alaweed in 2007-2008 but the financial crisis put an end to it.

 

[ford91exploder]

Avatar will be a huge flop and eventually replaced with FernGully overlay.

I thought it already was ...

 

[SyracuseDisneyFan]

They'll update Mickey's PhilHarmagic.

Some not so bold predictions....
1. Avatarland is a huge hit at AK.
2. Toy Story Land isn't as big of a hit.
3. Osbourne Lighys come back to WDW. Maybe by a different name and sponsor but they do a light show like that somewhere in WDW.
4. Epcot adds another country or 2 to WS. The space is there and is becoming more popular for adults to do.

Some bolder predictions....
1. WDW adds atleast 2 more DVC villa areas.
2. WDW lowers the speed on certain rides. Everyone is so sensitive about safety these days they get forced to.
3. A 5th park gets added. Theme and all I'm not sure about. I think WDW crowds will become too much where they get forced to expand bc of line lengths.

Disney builds new park. Counting on the fascination guests have with the Utilidors, Disney builds UTILIDORLAND, a park built entirely underground, themed around underground characters,
Mole

and

Hades. This park excites environmentalists who praise Disneys innovative planning that keeps trees, bushes and other green spaces intact. Guests traverse a labyrinth of tunnels using their sense of smell and experience all rides in the dark, saving on electrical costs.
