Rumor Inside Out to Replace Journey into Imagination with Figment?

He will stay in the park. He is the mascot for Food and Wine. He doesn't need an attraction when his merchandise prints money for Disney

Good. Hopefully this IP will lose relevance in that time.

This is where the vocal critics are right about Disney. Why not upgrade Journey to modernize what you can, nothing major but a nice new look........AND add to the pavilion with an attraction centered around Inside Out. There are plenty of options to use as the story for an attraction that send a strong message to children (and adults) about emotions and handling them. It could be pretty grand if done right and the you would have Figment there as a nice accent to the new blockbuster.

Honestly, the same problem could show up with Inside Out in a pavilion. @marni1971 stated that it could possibly happen. However, it could be 5 or 6 years down the road. That would be 8 years after the movie came out. Disney would have to promote that movie 8 years after it initially came out in theaters. If they wanted to put Inside Out in the pavilion it should have been there when the movie's success peaked.

Please let this happen. Inside out is my favorite Pixar movie and I think it would be a perfect replacement!

Pst... Figment is IP.

I'm still having issues imagining (pun intended) what kind of Inside Out ride would be that compelling or fun for the IMAGINATION pavilion. One throwaway scene in the film doesn't necessarily warrant an entire attraction.
Inside Out would be better suited for WOL, and wouldn't even have to take over Cranium Command.

The title of this thread should be updated to "[RUMOR]". Nothing like sensationalizing something as new/news that's a year old already...
Please. "Inside Out" doesn't have half of the soul that Figment has. And anyone who rode the original JII would know that. To suggest otherwise is simply trolling.

Not per se. Remember the "every seven years" rule of thumb for reintroducing characters?

Do you really need me to explain the difference there Cap or you being deliberately obtuse?

From what I can tell, I'm one of the only people on this board that uses the term "IP" correctly, so I don't think I'm the one being obtuse. There's zero credible argument to be made that Figment is more legitimate than Inside Out.
For the record, I've never seen Inside Out and would much prefer a robust Figment attraction. But the "IP heresy" argument is a worn out non-sequitur.

Agree. And I think that's what will happen if Inside Out is brought into the pavilion. In general (with the Little Mermaid being the recent exception), Disney seems to be interested in using ride-type attractions lately to expand the story, not retell it. Frozenstrom, Carsland, Nemo Seas, Toy Story Mania, etc. Here's hoping that will continue if they decide to add movie-based IP to Epcot. I think that could make Inside Out work well in Imagination.
I have little hope of GotG working well in whatever the ex-Energy pavilion will be called, but I've been surprised before.

Figment is already the intellectual property of Disney, thats not too difficult to comprehend nicht war ? What its not is an IP with an associated theatrical release.

Thing is.....Why are we going through Riley's head? Doesn't make sense....It would have to be another set of Emotions that we would be joining on this journey...And as it builds up to the final point or message it turns out to be Dreamfinder's Emotions.....

Of course, when we complain about IP in Epcot, we mean "IP not originally developed for Epcot".
That said, you're right of course. Dreamfinder and Figment is just as much IP as Inside Out is. The debate, of course, is whether putting IP originally developed for something else into Epcot is a good idea. Sometimes, I'd argue that it works fine - Timon and Pumbaa hosting Circle of Life made the movie a bit better. Turtle Talk with Crush works well in the Seas. And, to me, Inside Out could fit quite well in Imagination.
But other times, IP developed for something else shoehorned into Epcot works...less well. The ride portion of Nemo -- not a fan. And random unconnected meet-n-greets, nope. And then, of course, we have Frozenstrom. Decent attraction, shoehorned. And GotG in the former Energy -- sounds so shoehorned that it's ludicrous, although I shall try to keep an open mind.
It's the New Epcot Center! Ride the movies! More of the ENDLESS MAGIC!!! yet to be discovered at Walt Disney World Resort!

The Nemo ride sucks because it sucks, not because it's Nemo. If they made a good ride with Nemo, it would be a good ride. If they made a sucky ride without Nemo, it would still suck. Its Nemo-ness and its sucky-ness are unrelated.
