file://CBefore I even start anything, I don't believe there is any conspiracy going on, I just wonder about things.:drevil: Refer to: Thread Deleted! and Journey Into Imagination Building to fully comprehend.
I am a longtime fan of the original JII. I have lived in Orlando all of my life and have been to Disney, hundreds of times. I have been a member of these forums for a year now and this has only happened once. In regards to the leaked imageworks photos online about two months ago, the forums were abuzz, (no disney pun intended.) Everyone started wondering why they kept imageworks partially intact (sorry to those who don't agree). This is where I came in to the picture. I wondered if maybe since they kept imageworks, they might have kept part of the original JII ride. I wondered this because I knew that the current ride did not take up both pyramids fully. I asked if anyone had a ride track model pic. I recieved this reply
We then realized that some of the original ride has to be leftover, but why? Maybe keeping parts of the ride was a way to save a part of the rides past or keep it for a backup plan for a future itteration of the ride if it did not succeed after rehab. That is up to you to decide, any theories are open for discussion with me. If for some reason, this thread is locked, send me an email or pm. Email at zmanatr@cfl.rr.com

Now the only question is what parts of the original ride are still left, because the newer version is fairly small compared to the origional.

Sadly, nothing. The ImageworksShop takes up a fair ammount of the original ride space, as does the queue and load. Today you actually load on the far side of the `turntable` arrangement that the Dream Machine used to fly round in scene 2. The only parts of original track not used are scene 1 with the rear projection screen, and the final ramp before unload just after Dreamfinder the Cameraman - with the overhead screen and the `To the Imageworks` sign:<!-- / message --><!-- attachments -->
