Cause of new ride

[YangYang]

My problem with AE was that I thought it was a one time only attraction. The first time was great, but the only thing I liked about going on after that was taking someone new. After the first time, it was boring.

Figment is back in full force in Journey Into Your Imagination as the rather naughty little dragon who causes all kinds of chaos as you chase him through Nigel Channing's Imagination Institute. Previously in the first version of JIYI, he was only there as a computer graphic 3D character at the start (which he still is) and several static displays later on). He is now back in his AA figure form. They also brought back a newer version of "One Little Spark." He is voiced by someone different now though, since his original voice, Billy Barty, died. DreamFinder wasn't so lucky. He is now JobFinder. Just kidding. I think DreamFinder made a much better companion to the whimsy of Figment, rather than Eric Idle who we know and have seen thousands of times in other things. I don't see Nigel Channing when I look at him, all I can think of is Monty Python.

I am pretty sure they were still selling Skippy stuffed animals at MK when I was there last month. I remember seeing them.

I never saw AE. It seemed like everytime I went there, it was a long line, and not caring much for Aliens, figured it wasn't worth standing in line to see another attraction like Sounds Dangerous. I am looking forward to seeing Stitch's Great Escape. I didn't like Stitch at first, but in seeing more of him, he kinda grew on me. I think it will be a fun romp and it will be good to see Disney spend some decent money (Stitch is supposed to be one of the most advanced AA figures ever created) on something that uses stimulation of the senses to excite and not the body.

I agree that AE was pretty much a one time only experience.

I do like Stitch though and hope that whatever they do is entertaining and something worth repeat visits.

Anybody know when the New Sttch ride is scheduled to open?

AE was scary the first time, but I couldn't really get into it on the second.

The Original Figment ride should never have been messed with. Judging from the speed at which JIYI2 was replaced, lots of people agreed with me.

I would love to see something like the opening sequence to the first stitch movie, where he is on trial, you see hime escape, and you are on a roller-coasterlike ride following him. Not really an option in the space provided, but if I had my druthers....

I really enjoyed AE. I did not find it very scary and I loved skippy. Is this another WDW character now M.I.A.? I remember Figment coming back for a while. Is he still there? What about Dreamfinder?

My real problem is this. I have been boycotting Disney films since I wasted money on Dinosaur. I was also tortured for 90 minutes watching Monsters Inc. So needless to say, Disney/Pixar means nothing to me either. My point is, now I guess I will have to avoid this new Stitch Encounter or whatever it is. I am dreading whatever they do with Nemo.

Figment is still there. Dreamfinder is not.

Pixar was not involved with Lilo & Stitch. Did you even see it? Or do you just hate it because it's "new"? I think Lilo & Stitch is one of the funniest animated films Disney has done in a long time.

Pixar was also not involved with Dinosaur.

And whether you hate Pixar for some odd reason or not, Finding Nemo is a wonderful family film, that touches upon the love of a father for his son. How anyone can dislike a movie like that, is beyond me.

So I'm curious, can you point out some specific reasons why you dislike each of the following films. These reasons should reflect the film itself, and not just some ideology that the old films are great and the new ones are awful. :

Lilo & Stitch
Finding Nemo
Monster's Inc
Dinosaur

Did you also hate Toy Story 1 & 2 ? Those were Pixar. As was a Bugs Life. You didn't mention Emporer's New Groove, Atlantis, Treasure Planet, any of the sequels, Brother Bear or....well how far back does your hatred of the new go? It's obviously not just Pixar you don't like, since you didn't like L&S and Dino.

This makes me sad, I quite enjoyed AE.
