Rumor Inside Out to Replace Journey into Imagination with Figment?

[Captain Neo]

Have you been on Radiator Springs Racers? One of the best Disney rides there is imo. Hardly an empty warehouse with a few small sets scattered here and there.

Yes I have been on the ride many many times. The outdoor portion is very well themed. The Inside is not. Compare the original Epcot Center attractions and even Splash Mountain and Indy to RSR and you will see what I'm talking about. The theming feels very empty and scattered.

Speaking of Cranium Command...

That video is cool to see, but how dumb do you have to be to show your face AND give your name? It's crazy that AA is just sitting there staring a light for all eternity, lol.

I guess I disagree....to me both the outside and inside theming seem top notch on Racers. I don't really care for Indy but Splash is also very well-themed. I also think Flight of Passage, even though a screen ride, is very well themed.

The obvious solution: make a movie starring Figment

Use the profits to update the attraction- win, win

Hallelujah! I love Inside Out and hate the Imagination ride, possibly the worst and most barren ride in the entire park. Whatever replaces it will be MUCH better (yes I rode the original...that was awful too).

In all honesty, I've always liked the idea of "Inside Out" replacing Figment. The only other option I'd want is them to restore to the original attraction and improve it for today's audience... but that will never happen. I think they could even include Figment in a big way inside an "Inside Out" attraction, especially if they try and create an original story from the concept instead of a book report ride.

They could have Figment in an original short utilizing the 4D theater.

I don't think Figment can carry a franchise film but is perfect for the Disney Channel. IMO.

Never say never. There is definitely still a chance it could happen.

I'm not going to read this entire thread, but why couldn't Epcot just do a really good imagination-themed ride based on Inside-Out, which was an awesome movie, develop a great 3-D movie for Figment and EITHER of the versions of the Dreamfinder, (I prefer the younger one, but I don't care), revise the upper area of the pavilion to make it similar to what it used to be, (figment and Inside out characters in there) and call it it a day?
Why is this so hard. This is a Home-run-slam-dunk attraction. Let's Go!

I'm opposite on the attractions (Figment/Dreamfinder ride, Inside Out 3D show) but I totally agree. The fix is right there.

I think either version of these plans would be great and is be fine with either one but i rather figment get the ride by just a hair.
Of course Crainum Command getting Inside Out would be best in my eyes.

That's what I was thinking! At this point, Disney could open the pavilion and do minor updates to it for the overhaul, even though they won't ever do that.

I'm still surprised this guy didn't get caught yet.

Another video had the guy get caught by a few Cast Members somewhere in the Pavilion.

The ride is really outdated atleast make a meet and greet with him but get rid of this ride asap it makes my ears hurt.

The comics offer a strong starting point for developing an animated feature.

Have you read the comics? They're surprisingly good.

I can't believe Disney has never truly developed Figment. Or had until the comixx. What's not to like about him? His character may be limited, but is also very much a blank slate. He is every bit a match for Stitch.

And mix it with ideas from the comics.

They already tried that years ago and it was terrible!

 

[HauntedPirate]

Lol.
Did someone in an earlier post actually
try to spin that Disney might be disappointed in Guardians box office performance after grossing 1.65 billion in its first 2 outings. On a down year for
box office Guardians 2 domestically outgrossed the first by 60 million, to finish just under 400 million and also outperformed the first internationally, and by a considerable amount if you look at ticket sales. Exchange rate is unfavorable compared to when Guardians 1 was released.
I thing they might be somewhat pleased!!!

DIS did have higher box office expectations for GotG 2. It also made 66% of its US box office in its first 10 days. Not what they were wanting.

I hope they didn't cancel Figment 3. Since I heard that might happen. Even the people at Disney were surprised with how successful the comics were.

Don't forget Dreamfinder who was given a good backstory in the comics.
