Imagination! Being Replaced w. Dr. Doof?

The ride should be redone but with Walt and Figment. An Imagination Duo no one could beat.
No. That's exactly the sort of hero worship of himself Walt never wanted in the parks. At least Partners is just a small thing that functions well in the Main Street setting in the "Our Founder" statue aspect. But animatronic Walt is just wrong.

So you knew him personally? You knew what he wanted and what he didn't? Many things in park have changed since Walts time and this would be one that not many people would be against.

That's actually what Walt's opinion on the matter was and his family respected those wishes. Partners only got put up when the family was convinced it'd be good for the legacy and it would keep stupid crap out of the hub like that State Fair promotion where they put a ferris wheel and a motorcycle death sphere in the hub.

He told me there is the potential for the Imagination! pavilion being re-vamped/re-done again to reflect Heinz Doofenschmirtz as the central figure of the ride

Phinneas and Ferb could be a good fit...and I see no reason why Figment and even the Dreamfinder couldn't be part of it.

Is there a way to tag him in a post so that he gets a notification? I'd like to hear his take on this new report.

It depends on the company. Coke, for example, gets exclusivity in what's basically a medium-sized city, but Disney also gets syrup for pennies. GM gets to showcase its autos to a captive audience. Those Chevys look great when the showroom doesn't have any BMWs or Hondas or Benz's in it. And Disney gets a fleet of top GM cars (don't know what they are this year ... they've been Escalades and Yukons in recent years) that are given to execs to use for free.

The benefits used to be more even ... but now, Disney gets far more out of things (naturally), which explains why WDW has about 25% of the sponsors it did say 20 years ago.

Hey man, just quoting this so that you can be notified. What is your take on the new reports that Disney has filed some sort of construction paperwork on Imagination?
