Spaceship Earth vs Jour into Im w/ Figment

[SteveBrickNJ]

Incredibly different rides....I know.
*
*
Here's the purpose of my thread question:
My wife, myself and my daughter have been to Spaceship Earth 4 times. Three of the four times were when my daughter was in elementary school. Our upcoming visit is this November....a month in which our daughter will turn 17.
The last time we visited Epcot was maybe 4 or even 5 years ago.
Has Spaceship Earth been updated in any way?
*
We've never been to Journey into Imagination w/ Figment. A google search says its been in Epcot since 1983. I don't know how we missed it. WHERE in Epcot IS it? On a Youtube video of the Figment ride I watched about 2 and a half minutes then I stopped it early. It doesn't seem amazingly fun. Low tech? I'm not familiar w/ Figment. A dinosaur Disney invented for Epcot? Never in a popular Disney movie, correct?
*
So....I'm seeking opinions please...
For my initial 3 Fastpasses I only have two solid choices
Soarin'....'cause I just think it's cool even though I've been on it 4 times.
Frozen Ever After.....because we've never seen it.
*
What should be our 3rd?
My wife and daughter will want Test Track....so maybe I'm actually really asking what should be 4th ride of the day after we've burned our first 3 FPs?
*
Is Spaceship Earth worth seeing a 5th time?....or.....is the Figment ride more fun than it looks on Youtube and I should try it 'cause we've never seen it?

Peter Pan, 7DMT, BTMRR, Splash Mtn, PoTC in that order are the ones you want to try locking in most. They are the ones guests run to do and lines will build quickly. Space Mtn, HM, JC follow those in popularity. You will find the availability of certain choices drop as the day goes on.

Of the Group B fast passes personally I would make Spaceship Earth and Livin' with the Land. Both can get to be long lines in the morning and early afternoon. If you plan to do Mission Space Green, a fast pass for that is not needed. My husband gets motion sick so we always do Green and the wait even in the height of summer season has never been more than 15 minutes, usually we walk right into one of the pre-show rooms. Journey with Figment is usually a walk on as well.

Here is what we usually do if we want to ride Soarin' and Frozen:

1.Get to park at rope drop and rope drop Soarin',
2.then head to Test Track (if the stand by isn't too bad we will do this, if it is long or we don't care at the moment about fully designing a car we will go single rider)
3. After Test Track we go to Mission Space Green
4. Use a fast pass on Spaceship Earth
5. walk onto Journey with Figment
6. Go over to the Seas or use a fast pass for Livin' with the Land
7. Maybe get a snack maybe at Seasons since we are in the Land and if we haven't done the Seas yet head there.
8. By this time World Showcase is either open or getting ready to open so we head there and maybe ride the Mexico ride and if we didn't get a snack at the Land we might stop at La Cava Tequila bar for a snack of chips, salsa, and queso and a margarita.
9. At some point in early afternoon we will have our fast pass for Frozen, usually around 11-11:30.
10. Make another fast pass for Epcot (or another park).
11. Enjoy World Showcase.
*If it is hot we'll probably go back to the room and nap at some point.

Thanks. That's great feedback. We need two FP choices from category B. Spaceship Earth might as well be one if the two. The other maybe I should try Mission Space? I think thereh are two choices? Intense and mild? Tell me about that anyone...please....thank you

I enjoy the intense mission space, but do it before I eat.

Figment is always a walk on , I wouldn't wait a Fp on it.
