Imagineering's track record of butchering icons (remember the Splash Mountain purge or the Tiki Room's endless glitches?), the eerie concept art of Walt in his blue sweater spouting pre-recorded optimism, and whispers of even bigger changes to the finale, like slapping in AI smart homes and VR gimmicks, that could turn this nostalgic rotary theater into a dated tech demo faster than you can say "great big beautiful tomorrow." 60 Minutes.
