EPCOT Figment, well, to be replaced by Figment

[Thelazer]

Nah, I don't think they have a damn thing planned for Epcot beyond finishing up MJOFW.... and some new flooring replacements that "harken back to the old days of original Epcot"

(Also they will announce a new CARPET WALL MURAL!)

return of the exit Hydrolators (that was pegged for the 50th)

Excuse me????

This was going to be a thing? Where did you read that?

New “Seabase” theming. New exit hydrolators. Addition of a virtual tank.

Hydrolators were proposed for the exit.

Vast improvement on sliding glass doors I’d say.

They redid some signage which hinted towards the Seabase return. That's about it.

Looks like you’re already predicting the future lol

wouldn't be shocked to hear of a Mary Poppins carousel coming to the UK section at some point. Natural fit and somewhat inexpensive. Face it, EPCOT could use a couple more kid friendly attractions.

While I do agree, (it still irks me they have already done this to France with that lousy singalong) I just cringe at the thought of strollers taking over this pavilion now too.

Strollers already take over Future World pathways, what's the difference anymore?

Besides, any new rides in WS would be a plus in my book.

It's about time. The pavilion has needed a wash for the last decade.

We knew the Journey of Water would pay homage to Journey into Imagination. We just thought it was the jumping fountains. But this is ridiculous.

Bold prediction: A D23 *teaser* announcement of a Dreamfinder revamp. Kinda like the initial Splash announcement….a “it’s coming, but we have this one generic picture to show”.

My gut could totally be wrong, but I have a feeling this might just be the year. What else do they have to announce for this park of genuine substance? Not much.

 

[thequeuelinelectures]

Can’t help but wonder if the existence of Inside Out 2 could help make some imagination makeover finally happen. They like to give rides to successful franchises so Inside Out sticking around as IP is definitely promising for having a future in the parks

2 options here....

1) a teaser video..A pan from the monorail passing by as it slowly passes by the pavillion. A kid walks by and picks up Dreamfinder's hat only to see a arm come from off right stage with hand open and with that the kid just smiles and fades to black...with the tagline..." An old friend is returning!".......

2) just a teaser poster. A side view of a purple tux and a Eviction notice in hand for the Imagination Institute..Tagine "Time to save a Friend"

I thought Pete Docter's rejecting the "Inside Out takeover of the Imagination pavilion" idea put the kibosh on it. I guess Chapek just doesn't care what Pete thinks.

Obviously Chapek has more juice than Pete Docter in the company, but there is nothing to suggest and IO takeover at this point other than people making loose connections based on speculation about Inside Out 2. There's no there there

I would sooner hope it takes over the theater if required.
