I’m just waiting for the inevitable announcement of Eisner coming backDont forget Barker Bird and Test Track back to more of a dark ride than projection ride.

Interesting some of the things that are not that far away which were still not mentioned today.![]()
This is great! But why? Temporary?
I didn't know The Sun Bonnet trio had names until now.And speaking of animatronics, here are a few snapshots I took at the display that was set up in a small room at the event.
I was for some reason expecting a larger room with more in it, but what was here was worth seeing for this avid animatronics fan.
First, one of the old Sun Bonnets, Bubbles.
I am assuming this is the one originally used at Disneyland.

Now a couple more, showing the famous Anacon along with a more modern control system.

I saw somewhere else it was this one:

I'm guessing they didn't sell too well honestly.
I can’t be the only one at the event that was not staying at the Contemp or Grand Flo!
No money, Epcot is just another half promised half finished overhaul like DHS.What is up with updates to SSE and Journey into Imagination? I saw nothing about those.
nowhere in the cards anytime soon that we know of. I think they have no intention of touching imagination. Its going to take someone with a vision (which doesn't exist anymore in twdc), a new ceo, or a sponsor.What is up with updates to SSE and Journey into Imagination? I saw nothing about those.
But to truly handle increased demand the new capacity cannot induce demand. They need small scale additions, not something big and grand.The problem is that many, including inside Disney, expect Epic Universe to lead to increased attendance at MK at the same time. While they can get by without it, it would be ideal to have some additional capacity added in time for EU.
Yep.
I told you guys there was no way in Hades we would hear anything about the Imagination Pavilion getting any love.
One does have to find it interesting that todays Disney promotes and exploits the Figment character every way possible, and the yet the Attraction that he is housed in is totally ignored by management.
You would think they would want to invest in a more imaginative experience to keep the ball rolling….but, nope.
This all just proves that the staying power of the character traces directly back to the Original Attraction’s inspirational power and GENUIS.
There has never been anything like it before or since.
The character lives on….

Test Track getting love cause of sponsorship tells they don't have the money to spend on doing any of that.We had so much cut from the last round and the Imagination Pavilion didn't even seem part of the master plan.
After December, they are clearly done with Epcot for now. The only reason why Test Track will get love is because of the sponsorship funding.
- Festival Pavilion
- Mary Poppins
- PLAY! Pavilion
- Spaceship Earth Refurb
Where is Kodak when you need it?
To answer the question posed, the line was gigantic and snaked around the interior of the building.
It was difficult to find the end!

And then, they apparently exited the park and didn’t have resort transportation unless staying at the Contemporary or GFYeah, I heard from some on attendance that line management was pretty poor and then a lot of people were left still in line and didn't get to meet him in the end which is frustrating
