Didn't they somehow sabotage Journey Into Imagination by messing with the queue to make the wait times go down so the higher-ups would think the ride wasn't popular anymore?Also I’m sure we are fine but with the show likley getting redone first I am slightly worried of a “HISTA” show is more popular than ride situation where the execs learn the wrong lesson again and we get figment and inside out with figment but idk. Who knows.
It still baffles me how they went through with closing JII because of how bad of a decision that was. Even from a business standpoint.Didn't they somehow sabotage Journey Into Imagination by messing with the queue to make the wait times go down so the higher-ups would think the ride wasn't popular anymore?
Park ops wanted it gone just as bad, if not more, because of the turn table.JII closing was largely Kodak's doing. They wanted something more "modern".

Oh. Right. The thing that always broke.Park ops wanted it gone just as bad, if not more, because of the turn table.
The irony in this kills me everytime. As if JII was the most dated thing in the park. Tbf every other future world pavilion got/was getting work done at that time so it makes sense, but still… JII was the outlier in all of future worldJII closing was largely Kodak's doing.

I remember on a retromagic interview ron schnider (the dreamfinder) implied that some execs hated figment too “I hate that f***ing dragon” is how he worded it. (Around 10:00)JII closing was largely Kodak's doing. They wanted something more "modern".
It was more that they had a contract Kodak had to redo the ride if they wanted to continue sponsoringPark ops wanted it gone just as bad, if not more, because of the turn table.
