I know...just kiddin'.....It really is a perfect replacement for Wonders Of Life and a popular IP they already own.... They could do so much with it... a playground of sorts, a major show, a dark ride, a spinner and food & merch venues...It would be brilliant.... of course it does nothing to address the EPCOT "neighborhoods" plan.... unless somehow a Health and Wellness pavilion would make sense next to Xandar...

You could fit it with the World Discovery by discovering what's inside the human body?

I would prefer Imagination to always be Imagination....and let Inside Out be it's own pavilion...it would certainly work as it's own thing... as a show in the imagination Pavilion it would just be half of a thought for both... not enough for Inside Out, and not quite enough for Imagination.... the WOL pavilion is just sitting there... With the IP mandate in place, why not reactivate that space with a proven IP... Unless they have another idea....
Feels like there are no real ideas anymore.... except shove things into the framework of parks where they don't belong....in which case move Princess Fantasy Faire to the WOL building...lol

I could actually see Imagination becoming a mix of both the original and current. Completely redo the ride to harness the magic of the original attraction and then use the Magic Eye Theater as an Imagination Showcase with the Dreamfinder showing how all of the senses contribute to one's imagination. A 3D film using gags and physical tricks to play on your imagination.

Just my opinion as a fan, but I think putting Inside Out characters into the Imagination ride would only work long-term if they're clearly the supporting cast and Figment is the star. A reduced presence for Figment would be a bad idea on every level, and not because of any old Epcot nostalgia either.

Limiting Inside Out to a 3D show and balloon ride is a misuse of a billion dollar franchise, IMHO. Zootopia at least has a land in Shanghai (and possibly something for WDW, we'll see). The only upside is they would probably get an IO 3D show open faster.

Only thing is, if they don't use IO for the 3D theater, what do you put there instead? Hmmm.... another decade of Disney & Pixar Short Film Festival?

If only there was a beloved 3D show that Disney has promised to preserve for future generations that could potentially be moved to that theater. It would be really convenient if said attraction featured the current voice of Figment…

If they were gonna move it, it was gonna be announced before the ride itself got a closing date to be “don’t worry, it’s not going anywhere!”

It’s over man. I’m sorry.

I'm not a fan of dogmatic Epcot purism and even I don't see a reasonable way that MuppetVision fits into that park or that pavilion.

Magic Eye is really the only clean slate in all of EPCOT where they could do whatever and still be on-theme. It's just a theatre which has now had four shows unrelated to anything else in the park (with exception to the latter part of HISTA's run when the whole pavilion was themed around it, but it began its life as an unrelated show)

I would prefer MuppetVision stay in its home park and EPCOT get something fresh, but I would certainly prefer MuppetVision to the waste of space that's there now. It's all a moot point anyway, they're not moving it there.
