If you could sponsor one ride

Say you were the owner of a multi-billion dollar company and could sponsor one ride with cost not being an issue. What would you sponsor?
For me it would have to be Journey into Imagination. I would either bring back the Dreamfinder or manage to plus what they have now (probably get better results just bringing back the Dreamfinder though)

I'd sponsor WOL and update it, but keep the same rides (just upgrade them) and I'd re-paint the pavilion and get rid of the carnival theme.

id sponsor the disney raceway, and make it relevent again...i would theme the track differently, maybe even go the wall-e road and turn the cars into the futuristic people movers with interactive digital interfaces with options of what part of the track to go to next. You would be engulfed in the future while you "drive" on a long maze-like track. That leaves the opening for the new crazy drink they serve in the movie, and apparel.

Universe of Energy....exorsize Ellen from the ride and do something fresh and relevant. Too many times have I ridden this and listened to people moan and groan as the left about what a waste it was. A forgotten corner of Futureworld that could be so much more than it was in 1996!

I'm actually leaning towards Journey and just remixing and updating the original version. Figgy front and center with Dreamfinder. Then to the Magic Eye Theater for a new Muppets imagination powered 4-d experience. I think the idea has legs. Bunsen and Beaker trying to harness the power of the imagination by using some invention on Figment. Obviously he'd fare better than poor Beaky. Its such a simple idea that it baffles me that these two haven't been joined together. Disney loves shoehorning iPs in. Here's what I've always claimed is a natural fit.

If someone was already snapped that pavillion up, I'd maybe try to do something with WoL and turn it into a more nutrition and health pavillion. Update the Kitchen Kabaret as an attraction, an alternative to Sunshine Seasons for food, and maybe some kind of Wii motion activated ride of some kind. Where movement and exercise runs it.

Great question. Other than the obvious choices (JII, WoL, etc) I'd maybe like to finance a rebuild/re imagining of The Living Seas. This pavilion has been over shadowed by bigger and more modern aquariums. I'd get rid of Nemo and return the focus to the exploration and life within the depths. I'd also freshen up and expand the aquarium exhibits. Make them world class again.

If money's no object, then I'd sponsor an entire area in AK. The prehistoric presence would triple, covering vast swaths of time and I'd pave over all the carnival rides.

I would take the WOL building add a rollercoaster. The lift hill would be outside the building. The first drop would plunge inside. The theming would be you are in a high speed hover craft vehicle. Traveling through cities forests desserts undersea (like Horizons but faster) etc. The scenes would fly by fast enough that you would have to ride multiple times to catch all of the details.

None. Disney has enough money to fund their own rides. I'm not about to enable the penny pinching practises that have contributed to the ruination of Epcot.
