i realized i missed a very important word that i've now edited the post to add 😅 to clarify, it's obvious that disney doesn't feel the need to update tomorrowland as much as we fans do. i do feel the land could be given a facelift in places, like actually doing something with innoventions, and...

☝️🤓 um, actually, it's "The Most Magical Place on Turf"

my personal view is that disney is perfectly fine with kicking this particular can down the road for as long as possible (see also: figment at WDW) and, who knows? maybe if disney lets enough time pass, the wall-laden tomorrowland entrance will become charming and nostalgic to the children of...
