We start at the turn of the century, then the 1920's, 1950's and finally the 1990's.
Many believe the 1990's needs to be updated to something that reflects modern times. But I disagree.
The story should remain a story about the advancements of the 20th century.
The leap from the 1950's to 1990's is a huge jump already. Adding another 20 or 30 years would seem ridiculous.
Suppose we did want to add the modern time. What would it look like? A family sitting around a living room silently playing their devices? No narration, no background music. Just look at this family gazing deeply into their devices for 5 minutes? I don't think that would be very entertaining.
So, I suggest the ride does not get updated. Leave it alone! Let it talk about the optimism of the 20th century and the great big beautiful tomorrow it promised.
