Imagination needs to brought back to its original glory. Not necessarily the same exact ride, but the same scope and w/ Dreamfinder instead of Channing. HISTA needs to go, and ImageWorks also needs to be brought back to its former glory.

Maelstrom is also looking really run down.

Imagine a TT changed into more of a WOM-type attraction. I have to think if a new overlay were added, the track layout itself would not change, except for the "rough road surfaces" which could easily be smoothed over. So, if we want to add historical Audio-Animatronic tableaux into the first part of the attraction, leaving the automotive proving ground theming intact in the final high speed barrier/loop test, what would we do?

Perhaps the opening "hill climb" could be a sort of "time machine" effect going into the past, lasers and strobes everywhere, kind of like Dinosaur at AK.

The rough road tests could be your vehicle traveling on the ancient Appian Way in Rome circa 247 BC. And heck, you could keep the rough road surface to simulate the cobblestone! Of course, Roman soldiers and statesmen could be added as AA figures here, along with a pompous brass fanfare.

Next, the brake tests could be changed to represent a runaway horse-drawn chariot or American buggy... special holographic effects could add an animated horse to the front of the vehicle, accelerating as if spooked.

Then, the "extreme" hot, cold, and chemical chambers could be changed into an old 1800s-style railroad roundhouse, where you can watch AA railroad technicians servicing the mighty iron horse locomotive as it prepares for a transcontinental trip. "Howdy pardner," they might drawl, before delivering a spiel about how the train has revolutionized transportation.

Then, the mountain test. This could remain relatively intact, as a representation of the modern era where personal cars are the norm. Retheme the mountain to the rugged hills outside Sedona, like Arizona State Route 89A which has a bunch of hairpin turns through Oak Creek Canyon, and which is an absolute delight to drive through.

Then, take us into the future, and more specifically the future automotive testing facilities, circa AD 2055, and proceed with the faux barrier test and the loops, emphasizing, perhaps, in this final segment green technologies.

And there you go. An infinitely better "Test Track" a la World of Motion!

YES. YES!!!! Great Idea. And seeing that this thread's new theme is EPCOT remake and refurb wishes, I'd really like to see more of these. This was really good, and I'm sure everyone else here has great ideas, too!!

I'm wondering if Disney wouldn't be better off calling it Scandinavia and bringing in themes from all the Nordic countries and possibly reinvigorating investment in the pavilion. Just a thought.

I want a parade at Epcot again!!!!

My Idea would be for it to be about FW and the WS. Part of it will start in FW where the big fountain is. These floats would be FW themed ex Imagination with Figgy And Finder while it goes by one little spark plays, also stuff from the past so a Horizons float playing New Horizons ect... They would proceed down the main street towards WS and the floats would be WW2 like ducks and empty into the WS lagoon.

At the same time a parade similar to TON will start in the WS and it will also empty into the WS lagoon, all the floats would circle the lagoon to a main theme song and exit the lagoon and procced backstage.

They are talking all about it on another site. And about you too. I can't wait until the descent is finished so I can watch the merfmeltdown.
