Rumor Figment, well, to be replaced by Figment

[Bocabear]

They have an original IP that could be a huge franchise like Pirates turned out to be, but rather than move forward with any of this they keep beating a dead horse with sequel after sequel...and shoehorning ip into places it doesn't actually fit. The entire area around The Imagination Pavilion could be developed into something completely spectacular... The subject matter warrants it...A Wonderland of Imagination... Develop an origin story big-budget film for Dreamfinder ... I can't see any way this could fail if they do it right....and the park presence could be insane. It would be a HUUUGE success in the Asian parks as well. Maybe OLC needs to get this franchise and do it right.... I could care less about the new Cars thing, but an expanded and well done Figment and Dreamfinder in Epcot would certainly get my vote....

If there can be a Harold and The Purple Crayon movie and a Lyle Lyle Crocodile movie, there can be a Figment movie. And if there can be a Figment movie, there can be a Dragon Tales movie. I want us dragon fans to live in harmony. In the year 1999, Figment and Dreamfinder effectively died while Dragon Tales came out and went big, in the same part of the year too (fall 1999). June 2002, Figment came back but Dreamfinder was gone still. And Dragon Tales was at it's peak in the months following 9/11 up to 2004 where Dragon Tales had 11 million viewers weekly. Kodak pulled sponsorship in August 2010, and Dragon Tales stopped airing that same month. But then right after that Figment and Dreamfinder started getting love from Disney and they started acknowledging him again. It seems like if Figment is popular, Dragon Tales can't, and if Dragon Tales is popular, Figment can't.

My main point is, I wish I wish with all my heart, to see them both popular, not falling apart. I should probably talk about this in a specific thread for it but oh well.

Hello! When you meet somebody new, that's the first thing you should do. So hello.

I understand you're afraid that Figment and DragonTales can't both be popular. When I'm feeling scared about something, I usually hum.

Also, I just want to meet a character of Lorca. That guy's a dude.

I really loved Lyle Lyle Crocodile. That was one of my favorite movies of all time. The singing crocodile was so much fun, all the singing was great. And, further talking about dragons is Dragon's Lair. I used to play that video game so much as a kid. It was so much fun. And, definitely, I always can't miss Figment whenever I'm at Disney. And, of course, who couldn't ever forget the oh so wonderful movie Pete's Dragon. I really prefer the remake with Bryce Dallas Howard (she has been great in a number of movies and her Dad is ok too, i guess, maybe, who knows). She was great in that spy movie recently I saw. I remember when I saw Pete's Dragon with my wonderful Mom a time ago how we were greeted with a laminated Pete's dragon bookmark. That really meant a lot. Istill have that downstairs and treasure it always. It's really one of the most favorite things that I have. Sorry about my tangent about Dragon's...

Yeah people mistake Lorca as a girl a lot. Actually quite a few people mistake Figment for a Dragon Tales character. I've always thought Wheezie was Figment but female and attached to another dragon's body (Zak's).

You guys think he likes Dragon Tales or....

Figment has a very similar design to Dragon Tales, i'd imagine there's quite an overlap.

I'm a big Dragon Tales guy myself. I don't wear it on my sleeve like some do, but it was a great show when I was growing up. Still wish I could have seen whatever this is:

That's Dragon Tales Live. It's actually lost media and next to no footage can be found, except the first half of one production (of 3)

 

[Brer Panther]

I really loved Lyle Lyle Crocodile.

I liked it too.

 

[Eric Graham]

I liked it too.

to me it was almost as totally enjoyable as eight below, snow dogs and of course hotel for dogs<----i only reference those movies because those are the three movies that my dog totally wags her tail to...

I don't like the Idea of Dreamfinder and figment being international characters. The fact that they're distinctly EPCOT adds a lot to their charm for me.

Considering they're allegedly making a Figment movie, that likely won't be an "idea" for long - but rather a reality.

Give Tokyo Figment and have them split cost with us. Trust me.

If it's really not happening, that'd make me so sad. Figment deserves a movie.

Granted, some movies take a long time to produce. I really wish something would happen. The meet-and-greet was very well-appreciated, but there's a lot of work left to do.

So you would prefer they do nothing with the IP but a popcorn bucket instead of allow OLC to develop something amazing around the IP....which could then end up in stateside parks? I don't like any IP less because it is also being used by a Disney park in another country....
I do love that Dreamfinder and Figment were always EPCOT original characters....but I am sad to see them ignored, and having about the worst pavilion and attraction in the park.... and while they could and should be re-launching them with the most amazing project, they are instead intent on ruining the MK with inappropriate IP, and cramming other IP where it doesn't belong...

It’s not that I don’t want disney to do nothing with JII, and if it means having OLC do it I’m definitely on board, l just like how all of Epcot’s future world attractions (excluding Soarin) are distinct to Epcot. Exclusive attractions are a part of what make Epcot unique since you can’t have those types of experiences anywhere else.

I’ll still be shocked if Figment ever gets more love than a new film in the Magic Eye theater.

Seems like something Disney would do. Placate fans with a new Figment film while retheming the dark ride to tie it into an IP guests can find on Disney+.

The new meet-and-greet makes me happy, but I wonder how long the current ride will last. 2030s?! 2040s?!
