Rumor Inside Out to Replace Journey into Imagination with Figment?

[MisterPenguin]

Figment is allowed to move away from just the glass pyramids

As in walking about?...

That's what DisneyDiary.com is reporting as a rumor: https://disneydiary.com/2018/01/rumor-dreamfinder-will-make-return-figment-epcot/

Anyone know?

Would love to see this at Moonlight Magic in August. That would be quite a nice surprise

So.....are you saying Figment could be displaced into another pavilion? The new tenant of Wonders of Life, perhaps?

That was my guess too.

Well, now that Kodak has become primarily a printer company, maybe someone can convince Japan to crank up that Mt Fuji ride and someone else (Canon? Nikon?) can take over sponsorship at Imagination...

I always thought that Apple would be a good sponsor of Imagination.. And Google of SSE... One can dream...

Hot tip: WoL is being converted into a thunderdome where we watch Figment and BingBong fight to the death. Two figments enter, one leaves.

Are we certain Figment is staying in Epcot?

It would be a really weird move if they moved Figment to another building.

Curioser and curioser....that would be very very interesting.....

True! Especially since the glass pyramids are still clearly present in the origin story Marvel comics...

I've ridden it and generously think it is a D-. Forgettable. I would guess that if you did a poll of people who have ridden it the C and D option would both beat out E. Who cares how big the building is and how much it cost. It is all about the experience. There are some that absolutely love it and think it to be an E, but I believe the consensus in DLRP is that it is a D. It will no doubt be popular and crowded for a couple of years but anything new at WDW always is. And it being the headliner at WDSP isn't exactly praise.

Why does everyone talk about it being a D as if it's a bad thing? The parks need more solid C/D attractions... Not everything can/should be an e-ticket.

I don’t think they care at all about continuity with the Marvel comics. But it is more along the lines of “the pavilion was designed specifically around the ideas of imagination, so why change it?”

Figment M&G in Harambe confirmed!

Figment Nights?

Trying to figure out the cryptic hints is like trying to understand the Tamrian language in Star Trek next generation...."Figment, when the pyramid fell" "Dreamfinder, his arms wide"

It isn't a bad thing. I was responding to an assertion that it was mostly given this grade by YouTube viewers and physically riding it would change their minds. Maybe it will. I didn't think so. It was ok but lacks elements that make it re-rideable to me. Just a shuttle from screen to screen with some basic oversized props. And I love Ratatouille, the movie.

Like, over towards the Magic Eye Theater?

Epcot has lots of C and D ticket attractions. It lacks sufficient E tickets. Ratatouille would be an E ticket since few attractions in Epcot are that sophisticated. It’s about time.
