Ticket price increases (several of them) will be announced as things to "celebrate." "Celebration churros" will shrink by about an inch; "celebration popcorn" buckets will shrink by 5-10% of their volume; "celebration soft drinks" will increase in price, etc. Parking will be at least $12 per car by June 1 (or is it that already??). New Disneyland leadership will be announced in several of the top 12 executive positions. Greg Emmer will probably disappear completely. Cast Members who have been at the resort for more than 5 years will celebrate by dancing in the streets. The 95% of Cast Members who have been at the resort for fewer than 2 years will say, "Who was Greg Emmer? Was he one of the nephews of Jim Disney who founded this place? Why does everyone seem to be celebrating? What on earth is this 'shoe polish' stuff I keep hearing about?" When the new Monorail trains are finally refitted to make them actually useable at a level close to their theoretical capacity (but still not up to the system when fully operational from the mid-80's to the late 90's), they will look far, far, far less cool than they did on arrival. Disney will continually groan at its own foolish decision to order only 3 new/rebuilt trains, instead of 4. There will be at least 2 threads in LP's DL-General section next year about whether or not the Blue Bayou is a good place to eat. Each thread will run about 53 posts before dying.

5	gottaluvdavillains Thu 12/4/2008 10:10a	I predict as DCA tranforms certain people still complaining it's still not good enough.

7	BrnardM Tue 12/30/2008 2:06p	Not a rumor or anything, but I'd like to see them update TOT's ride program. It only took two years for them to update Florida's Tower. Let's get some random drop sequences over here in California!
8	Moon Waffle Wed 12/31/2008 10:04a	My prediction for 2009: Nothing will happen with Tomorrowland.
9	Socrates Wed 12/31/2008 8:33p	My prediction for 2009: Anything I predict will turn out to be wrong. Socrates "The only good is knowledge and the only evil is ignorance."
