Which WDW Attraction Do You Want To Close?

I would be afraid that if they closed anything in FW it would not open again..

So when you rode it what did you not like? How bad is the line this early?
So far each choice has at least one vote, with JIIWF in the lead. I can totally understand why it is, seeing as the original attraction was great.
I voted for Under the Sea, just to let y'all know.

Figment needs to go. It's a big area that barely anyone goes to (as is the case with most of Future World).
I think that the Imagination Pavilion needs a huge update. I would begin with a 4th JII with Figment and Dreamfinder. As for the former Captain EO theater, we will most likely have another 3D show. As for ImageWorks, it can stay the same, but PLEASE BRING BACK THE RAINBOW TUNNEL! The second floor has been turned into a DVC club, which is stupid, since I believe it's probably big enough to fit a small attraction.

Why do you feel utilizing an unused, closed space is stupid?

I think they're referring to WHAT it's being used for. If DVC members needed a club, it's not like there aren't other unused spaces in EPCOT. This is right smack dab in the middle of an active pavilion, and that space could be used for something that all guests can enjoy.

But it has not been used in years. Yes, there are lots of other spaces, and regardless of which one was used, someone would complain.

I don't think anyone would complain if they threw the DVC club into the Wonders of Life Pavilion, because that's only used half of the year, at most, for festivals.

If you were handing out $100 bills, someone would complain it was not in $20s.

Yes to almost all. Much as Figment is a travesty, I'd start with Image Works. It's just not interesting at all. It might as well not be there. People still ride Figment, and people who don't know the original actually think it's good. But does anyone spend any time in Image Works? Maybe if they don't know what's there they check it out, but leave pretty quickly. Replacing nothing with something is a priority over replacing something bad with something better. It's more than just the rainbow tunnel. They should come up with new interactive sight and sound and creative exhibits, not just bring back the old stuff, some of which is old hat now. (Touch screen painting? I've got that on my phone.) And make it a nice themed environment, not one with bare walls that looks like a temporary convention display.
Then, yes, JII-IV.
I think maybe they shouldn't put in another 3D show. Back when it opened, this was a novel thing that many people had seen nowhere else. Nowadays most people have a 3D theater showing every other movie in their hometown. If they could think of another use for the space. Maybe a live show. Maybe an audience participation show. How about an improv show where kids get various wacky props and use their imagination to come up with a skit to act out. Or remember the attraction in the old Image Works where you got blue-screened into a story with Dreamfinder? Do that on a bigger scale and with modern technology to make it look less cheesy than it did back then.

I see most want JIIw/F to close probably on the presumption that they want, including me, JII 1.0 (with Dreamfinder) to return.

Figment needs to be updated but def not removed.

But don't go back to the past. As long as you're in there, make something with the spirit of the original but new and better.
I guess there is the risk that the result will be something that didn't "get it" yet again, but I think with one example of what to do and two of what not to do, they might be able to get it right.
