Rumor Figment, well, to be replaced by Figment

[marni1971]

Has there been a time frame on SSE reopening? Are we talking about Disney breaking ground on this unannounced refurb/rehaul 2, 3, 4 years from now?

I’m thinking opening late 2022/ early 2023. But I’ve been wrong before.

lol at this rate you guys won't see the beloved Imagination redo til 2030

Although this SSE isn't the worst they've done... so long as they make some real and meaningful improvements.

Imag is currently slated to reopen in 2025. The further timelines go, the more fluid they become

Wait. It “reopens 2025”? That means it does get a refurb. Goes down 2022, 2023?

I read that as SSE's refurb is completed around the end of 2022. In 2023, Imagination goes down until 2025. Roughly 2 year refurbs for both.

So another two year rumor mill until the D23 2021 expo, I guess.

Folks, @marni1971 has been saying this for years and it's in the rumor tracker.

Though, Disney did stir the pot with putting Imagination Pavilion and Mexico pavilion on the model which seemed to be a hint of what's going to get significant announcements... which they didn't. The model was a lie!

or was it...if they are eventually going to get updated it wasn’t really a lie

We don't need to wait.

@marni1971, get your camera.
You know who, get Ron.
We'll get that guy on Twitter to make us a Figment puppet.
I'll track down a blue suit.
We'll make our own Journey into Imagination.

It's all swag after 2 years out.

Do you predict that this new refurb will involve the return of dreamfinder? Just curious. I’m not looking for a straight answer, just personal thoughts.

It depends which proposal they go with.

How many proposals include him?

It is 6 years away...4 years away from it actually beginning it's refurb. I think it is anyone's guess at this point...All depends on what happens in the next 4 years, and who is in charge......

 

[Hollywood 1939]

It depends which proposal they go with.

Do any proposals involve a reinstatement of the original ride layout with modern technology? (Not that that's necessarily the best option but I'm curious)

Knowing the current WDC they are stalling until they can find a new IP like Onward.
