It's a few decades too late for that...Keep that trash out of the imagination pavilion!

Well I have heard about this rumor but I have also heard about Figment as a character remaining present at the park. So its either two attractions or one combining the two (which i hope not).
Good. Hopefully this IP will lose relevance in that time.It's been discussed for several months now. Not exactly new news.
The IP has been proposed for the pavilion as a possibility. Nothing is planned for a good 5-6 years at the moment.
That's the kind of thing that you can build on for an attraction, better than just retelling the movie in ride form. Endless room to grow with...imagination.
I think this will be Inside Out's take on Imagination rather than just a simulation of the film, which is very promising.
Phineas and Ferb do not have the timelessness or popularity a Pixar movie that made $850 million does. Most people wouldn't know what they were, and the show ended 2 years ago so by the time this comes out it'd have nearly been a decade.
Pst... Figment is IP.Epcot's Journey into Imagination replaced with an IP based attraction.... Irony.
Not per se. Remember the "every seven years" rule of thumb for reintroducing characters?Honestly, the same problem could show up with Inside Out in a pavilion. @marni1971 stated that it could possibly happen. However, it could be 5 or 6 years down the road. That would be 8 years after the movie came out. Disney would have to promote that movie 8 years after it initially came out in theaters. If they wanted to put Inside Out in the pavilion it should have been there when the movie's success peaked.
Pst... Figment is IP.
From what I can tell, I'm one of the only people on this board that uses the term "IP" correctly, so I don't think I'm the one being obtuse. There's zero credible argument to be made that Figment is more legitimate than Inside Out.Do you really need me to explain the difference there Cap or you being deliberately obtuse?
Agree. And I think that's what will happen if Inside Out is brought into the pavilion. In general (with the Little Mermaid being the recent exception), Disney seems to be interested in using ride-type attractions lately to expand the story, not retell it. Frozenstrom, Carsland, Nemo Seas, Toy Story Mania, etc. Here's hoping that will continue if they decide to add movie-based IP to Epcot. I think that could make Inside Out work well in Imagination.IF it does happen, let's hope they focus on the correct message
It should be an Imagination ride WITH the Inside Out characters, not a "let's go through the plot of Inside Out again"
Do you really need me to explain the difference there Cap or you being deliberately obtuse?
Of course, when we complain about IP in Epcot, we mean "IP not originally developed for Epcot".Pst... Figment is IP.
It's the New Epcot Center! Ride the movies! More of the ENDLESS MAGIC!!! yet to be discovered at Walt Disney World Resort!
The Nemo ride sucks because it sucks, not because it's Nemo. If they made a good ride with Nemo, it would be a good ride. If they made a sucky ride without Nemo, it would still suck. Its Nemo-ness and its sucky-ness are unrelated.Of course, when we complain about IP in Epcot, we mean "IP not originally developed for Epcot".
That said, you're right of course. Dreamfinder and Figment is just as much IP as Inside Out is. The debate, of course, is whether putting IP originally developed for something else into Epcot is a good idea. Sometimes, I'd argue that it works fine - Timon and Pumbaa hosting Circle of Life made the movie a bit better. Turtle Talk with Crush works well in the Seas. And, to me, Inside Out could fit quite well in Imagination.
But other times, IP developed for something else shoehorned into Epcot works...less well. The ride portion of Nemo -- not a fan. And random unconnected meet-n-greets, nope. And then, of course, we have Frozenstrom. Decent attraction, shoehorned. And GotG in the former Energy -- sounds so shoehorned that it's ludicrous, although I shall try to keep an open mind.
