The Sole Imagineer: An Imagineering Competition - Discussion Thread

[RMichael21]

Oh, I thought you meant at the end of THIS challenge.

Nope!

At the end of the competition, each finalist is given a challenge. This concept it considered your "jury speech." Then, MA and I will critique them and we'll decide who had the best one, but it really doesn't matter. Then the jury will vote for who they would like to win. Is that clear?

OOOOHHhh, so the final challenge isn't an actual Imagineering concept, but just your plea?

He could, as far as I understand it.

I'm Heffelumped and Woozled and very Confuzled by how this game works. I really should watch a few episodes of the show.

As mud. But, I've never seen but a few minutes of the show, so...

There are lots of seasons on Hulu and maybe Netflix. There might even be some on YouTube itself.

They are really good! I recommend watching them!
And if you do, you should go in order so that all star editions are even better, and you can see how the game evolves

Sort of... You'll find out in a few months.

I tried Survivor. I didn't like it. The challenges, at least in the part of the season I watched, were pointless and didn't have anything to do with the actual survival.

The Imagineering version is much better.

Not sure what the floating purple scientific equipment is about, outside of decor?

Sooo...the Lab is the Island is the Lab on the Island is the lab in the Island? I'm confused.

I like the idea of the queue game being "Who's that Pokemon".

Your preshow reminds me of Stitch at MK.

I like the specs. Who was that? tcool?

The Safety Spiel was another nice touch.

I'm not sure how well the water cannons would work in a ride with so many electronics.

I'm not getting the "huge stadium inside the lab" part...it's muddy.

Overall, the Mewtwo ride is decent...but it feels uninspired to me. The whole time I read it I couldn't shake the feeling I was riding a skinned version of the Spiderman ride at Universal Florida...which, while I know a LOT of people think that ride is amazing, I despise it and think it's rather lazy. Then again, when I rode it it broke down twice (once so bad that they had to reset the ride and I rode through half of it with all the screens and effects shut off as they unloaded all the ride vehicles for the reset and placed us back into the Express Pass lane for first boarding when it came back up).

Décor and a nod to one of the elite four physic décor from Gen 5.

The lab is the whole island Mewtwo's lab is at/ the scientists who made him.

All of the E-Ticket was mine writing minus 2-3 lines from the film suggested by @Vipraa .

The water canons will be like the water droppers from Phillarmagic/Spiderman Ride. Not major things to get you wet.

Its the stadium from film #1. I just thought Spiderman ride at IOA concept sort of thing could work here.

Sorry you had a bad experience on that ride. I personally think it's the best ride in Universal. I didn't think it was like Spiderman till you pointed it out now.

I also enjoyed the food offerings... Carts are an interesting idea, and the concept (though you didn't say it) reminds me of the Cone Hotel at DCA's Carsland.

What's Cone Hotel? The carts were similar in mind to the Butterbeer thing they have at Potterland.

God, I remember getting the Pokemon Blue when it came out, my parents took me to Toy's R Us and we had to stop for gas on the way home. The entire time I was trying to read the game manual because the old school gameboy didn't have a back light/nor did i have the light to light the screen with. One of my fondest memories.

That's why you needed Santa to bring you one of these.

Santa did better then that. He followed up with this:

I have owned every Version of Gameboy, But I am missing a my DSi which I sold because I never used it. I regret that because I would put them all in a case.
