I agree :) I think they should expand upon the ‘94 version. :D

but not dystopian...the world is a depressing enough place...a Utopian vision of tomorrow would be more appropriate and beautiful. The STar Wars addition is going to have enough dystopian distressed finishes to satisy the entire resort.. Tomorrowland should be gleaming and beautiful...a symbol of what we could achieve in a perfect world. Perfect beautiful and fun...

Unfortunately Disney has pretty much removed that optimism apart from Carousel of Progress and Spaceship Earth from both Tomorrowland and Future World, I don't exactly see it returning anytime soon.

Spaceship Earth actually does paint a picture of a bright and shiny future...albeit a cartoon one...nonetheless it does show a beautiful vision of the world of tomorrow... I wuld not mind of Tomorrowland had more of that Mid-Century style...similar to how it was in 1971... but a little more playful...

There should still be roaming atmosphere like in any other park. But not like originally envisaged.

They should have left them but in out of reach areas (that are visible) like cameo like scenes (like Grimauld place's Kreacher animatronic). Or bots moving or helping the "staff" in the background.

and what are the parents doing while the kids have their feet on the robot? Oh yeah, taking the video...

Yep, it's why we can't have nice things. It'd be even worse at WDW. Could you imagine? What happened to respect for property? (And I'm aware guests have sadly been damaging property for decades)

To be fair I also can't believe they thought this was a smart idea having a roaming droid without someone else there to interact with it and the guests. Guess I knew this sort of thing would be a problem ...

What about optimistic, beautiful, and updated Future World in EPCOT?

Magic Kingdom is more appropriate for a fantasy utopian world of Tomorrow... EPCOT was to be a more realistic based on sciece vision of our future...

And all they really had to do to simplify it for today's guests would be to say "look, Future World is a nod to the World's Fair and throw in Walt and boom" (although you could make the same case for say, Disneyland's Tomorrowland being similar to that idea) Not hard. Explains all you need to know. I'm being basic but there was a way they could have done it. What do guests even think of Future World? Just a place for thrill rides I imagine.
