I once read a sci-fi story (I don't recall the title) that posed the same question you are asking. The short answer is "Historians would want to revive at least some of the frozen".

Also, assuming mass media entertainment still exists in the future, I can see a reality show being created where someone is revived and cameras follow him around as he tries to adapt to the future.
