Predictions for WDW 2011

[Hebbynan]

Personally, I would like to see Phinneas and Ferb out and about for pics and autographs more often!!! P&F is very popular right now, you'd think we'd see more of them. And like others have been saying - they are more 'boy friendly' than some of the other characters. Maybe even doing something P&F specific in HS would be awesome!! *sounds dangerous would be a good place*

I don't really agree with this. To the best of my knowledge, there's nothing really "sponsored" in the Studios. Sponsored attractions seem limited primarily to MK and Epcot (and even those are fading fast).

Not saying the coaster is coming or not coming ... just that I don't think sponsorship enters into the equation at all.

I think what we'll see in 2011 is some more announcements of new stuff, but nothing new actually arriving. I expect some more announcements about new stuff for Fantasyland (and possibly other MK additions), as well as at least one new attraction for Epcot and the Studios.

I am feeling pretty hopeful these days about the Monsters, Inc., coming to the Studios. It won't open for several years, but I think Disney may officially announce the project in 2011. Maybe I'm being naive.

As for Epcot, I hope you're right, Ian. It has so many needs, particularly in Future World.

There are so many rumors floating around these days about a Tron-themed coaster in Tomorrowland. I sincerely hope Disney leaves Magic Kingdom as it is now that the Fantasyland expansion is underway and give the other three parks the care they desperately need and deserve.

My prediction is more fun, more magic, more laughs!

EXACTLY!!!!!!!! "Hanes" is the sponser for the RnRC by the way.

I cannot see a Tron-anything. The monorail just puzzles me. Heck, the preview for the movie puzzles me.

Prediction (after seeing first quarter financial report) : Fewer and cheaper discounts, more generic merchandise, and cut-backs all around.

You must be real fun at a party.

I predict a drastic decline in Chocolate Covered Frozen Banana sales at AK.

Not counting Wild Animal Trek, which just opened and requires a separate fee which really makes it like a tour, the park hasn't gotten anything new since Expedition Everest in 2007.

What is Wild Animal Trek? I haven't heard of it.

Or how about Russia as a WS country?
"Hey kids, let's go see the REAL Haunted Mansion!"

Seriously though, Epcot and AK need some love and attention. Future World, especially JIYI and UoE need love and AK needs another D or E ticket. A friend of mine did EE, the Safari and Tough to Be a Bug and was out in an hour. Not what you want Disney.

The only thing I predict is long lines. Wishing something new for one of the parks for this year other then what is in the works won't happen. New coasters, new lands, new themes will take over a year to plan and build. So don't get your hopes for this year to see a coaster other then the Dwarfs and I don't think that will be up and running this year.. As for a new country at EPCOT. Not going to happen this year or next. First they need the OK from host country to even consider it. Then the planning and then the two years to build it. And in Future World same thing. All you can do right now is to wait and see..

I think they will make an "Angry Birds" attraction where the guests are slingshot into wooden/stone structures.

I would love to see some sort of "tribute" to some of Walt's older films....
