    EPCOT Figment, well, to be replaced by Figment

    My gut feeling is telling me they might capitalize off of a redo to create a distraction for (rightfully so) disgruntled MV3D fans. There’s a lot of love for both IPs and they generally attract the same demographic of parks fans

    "Living with the Land" song removed?

    Was never around for this era, but it’s fascinating to go back and see how attitudes towards the parks have drastically changed over the last couple decades. Came across a bunch of old threads discussing Time Racers the other day. Insane to me how some people fully anticipated SSE to close by...

    EPCOT Figment, well, to be replaced by Figment

    If “Sparknotes JII” is still their current plan atm, that makes me especially curious what they’ll do with all that extra space downstairs. I’m not sure whether they’d be open to the idea of a brand new Imageworks in a post covid era, especially after Play was cancelled. My current theory is...

    Considering the fact JIIWF generally has the least amount of stuff going on out of any attraction on property makes it an easy candidate for “worst upkept attraction”. Just another reason why this is the pinnacle of crappy design. Once an AA figure goes down, it automatically brings an already...

    Journey into Your Imagination Construction Photos

    Eerie shot knowing the fate of this pavilion. There’s another picture floating around somewhere showing the repainted facade with the original JII sign still intact, mid construction

    DAK “Zootopia” is being created for the Tree of Life theater

    I’d imagine fully electric. These are the motors in his face; https://www.harmonicdrive.net/products/miniature-products/miniature-actuators/rsf-5b-idt-supermini-actuator All the A1000s use Harmonic Drive, but I’d imagine there might be some hydraulics involved in the heavier/larger figures, so...

    With the recent GTA 6 delay we may just get Imagination 4 before GTA 6 if all pans out at D23😭😭

    EPCOT Figment, well, to be replaced by Figment

    The self awareness rooted in the pavilion’s decline on Disney’s part is painfully obvious. One could speculate, that it almost seems as if Disney themselves knew this was the only “timeless” FW attraction, and they absolutely hated that. By their standards of what made FW timeless, almost...

    Be thankful it wasn’t massacred for a Spiderman shooting gallery

    Thanks for clarifying! Hope we can get a longer clip of this guy in action soon. Once the original detour figure is fixed they should put this guy in the finale, would make a fun addition between now and whenever they actually get around to fixing this godawful ride

    EPCOT Figment, well, to be replaced by Figment

    Did the figure with the toy blocks ever have a mouth movement? Can’t really tell from online POVs of the original, although he didn’t have any dialogue at that section of the ride so I kind of doubt it? His neck also looks a little shorter here, but that’s probably the clothes. That figure is...

    Original Alice in Wonderland Ride

    I absolutely love how much these old darkrides borrow from traditional theatrical sets. Simple painted flats arranged meticulously for a cohesive experience. Just goes to show that a successful attraction is alot more than just the latest & greatest technology. Insane attention to detail, so...

    Always makes me feel better knowing the original Figment AAs were saved. Was incredible getting to see those up close at the Van Eaton auctions

    Hoping this pattern of damage control continues past the Cinderella repaint & CoP upgrades. Pls come thru for D23 2026 😭

    EPCOT Figment, well, to be replaced by Figment

    Well, the “premature” AC announcement sure as hell makes alot more sense now… not in the way I’d hoped but I suppose that’s still one less project getting announced in 26’, leaving room for… well yeah. Giving the park some room to breathe after this upcoming SSE refurb makes more sense than my...
