Yet hopeful news of a refurb could spark renewed interest!
That's all we need, just one little spark!

This is exactly what I fear.
We still need people who care for this park's future no matter how bleak it may look. If people give up, then WDO has no reason to appease fans because they don't care anymore.
We need to keep pushing for Dreamfinder's return, attractions more in-line with the park's original vision, and ultimately for a better EPCOT. If we stop now then the random IP integration will win.
Who knows, maybe a future generation of imagineers will push harder for a return to the park's roots.
I would be, it wasn't even a good movie. It has zero to do with the pavilion's concept so... oh wait, this is the Bob/Josh era, none of that matters.

I get it.
I mean when the entrance plaza has a more heartwarming and "embracing the future" feeling then the rest of the park...that says a lot.

While I will always hold onto hope of Dreamfinder and Figment returning better than ever, I'll never fear Figment himself leaving the parks. If not only because he's a huge money making draw for them. Anything new Figment causes people to go crazy.
It's just too bad we no longer have a good attraction to go along with the demand of merchandise. A Figment & Dreamfinder attraction based on the comics would have been awesome too. So much wasted potential.

Watching that felt like I was watching some PBS reboot of 321 Contact..

So you're saying this park has a future?
My mistake.

yeah, someone else called it (IIRC), The Journey Into Food, wine, flowers, and Gardens; but mostly wine.
Not sure that rolls off the tongue, like epcot does. But, there you go...

Apparently the "interactive" element of the Fab 50 statues will be that the characters will talk to you after you scan your band. Curious to see if they're going with Dave Goelz for Figment, reusing lines from the original attraction, or if they're just going with a new voice actor altogether.

Curious to see how this would work with Bambi.

Knowing how much they don't care ..They could reuse clips and fuzed dialogue from the educational films to make "new dialogue"
