Calling it now:
In August D’Amaro is going to stand on the stage and talk about what a success the new Test Track overhaul is. Then he’ll talk about other fan favorites in EPCOT that the company is looking to bring up to date. The picture on the screen behind him will switch to a picture of the Imagination pavilion. Fans will collectively take a huge breath before D’Amaro bursts their bubble by saying “the Magic Eye Theater will be home to a brand new show starring the characters from PIXAR’s hit Inside Out franchise.”

ugh....please no!!
Anything in that pavilion without addressing it's original inhabitants will be a real bummer. The theater and the main attraction should relate....Not Inside Out and the remains of the Imagination attraction...how sad would that be?

Might as well stir the pot and bring up Wonders of Life pavilion again even though Inside Out going in there would break the new neighborhood structure they've created
The neighborhoods were set up so that just about anything could go anywhere short of Nature. The last project for Wonders of Life was quite literally just a dumping ground for any franchise they wanted, and was developed with its new neighborhood in mind. The definitions are so ambiguous that "Celebration" and "Discovery" and be twisted to mean anything.

Changing the ride’s IP to Inside Out with a focus on the emotions rather than the Honey I Shrunk IP, w a focus on the 5 Senses w Figment shoehorned in currently would be missing the point to what actually destroyed the ride in ‘99 & ‘02 to begin with. (Hint: It was getting rid of the original 83-98 ride and the unneccesary Film IP inclusion & change of theme) Just restore it back to the original with the tech & spfx enhancements we would’ve expected. From the ride’s success, then you can do more with/expand the characters & concept in other mediums. (As what was originally planned before Eisner canned those plans for some reason)
