I predict that the world will end at the
stroke of midnight on New Year’s Eve
they were way off this year welcome to
watchmojo.com and today we’ll be
counting down the top 10 movie
predictions about the future that turned
out wrong destination please oh just to
set the score we’re only focusing on
movie futures where the actual dates
have been specified meaning that they’ve
already passed or are completely
impossible to come true in the short
time remaining number 10 demolition man
kicking off our list is the film set in
2032 though that’s still a ways off it’s
already proven impossible since it
states that there hasn’t been a single
murder since 2010 let alone prisoners
being cryogenically frozen since 1996
while we’re on the subject imagine a
world where Taco Bell is the only
restaurant and yet there is no toilet
paper seems unlikely your tone is quasi
facetious but you do not realize that
Taco Bell was the only restaurant to
survive the franchise was so so now all
restaurants are talked about no way you
gonna kill me now snake number 9 I’m too
tired
escaped from New York maybe later
consider New York a dump well according
to this film things got so bad that in
1988 Manhattan became a giant
maximum-security prison housing the
world’s worst scum left to form gangs
and kill each other off New York becomes
for one maximum security prison for the
entire country
we’re going to avoid the chance for
biting social satire there and
grudgingly admit that hasn’t technically
happened by 1997 the planet was supposed
to have already emerged from World War 3
while the US president was busy being
kidnapped and held within said prison
instead of having a sex scandal with his
intern awesome anybody not very two
million sunblock is gonna have a real
bad day get it number eight
Judgment Day Terminator series this
prediction about the main event of 1997
being a nuclear strike by a self-aware
military computer system was pretty
bleep even bleaker was the possible rise
of skeletal robotic armies used to wipe
out the rest of humanity
you want to stick to the twisted
continuity after the events of t2 the
war was postponed to 2004 but that also
didn’t happen
number seven 2001 a Space Odyssey how
about that a time-stamped prediction
here Stanley Kubrick’s classic predicted
our colonization of space discovery of
alien artifacts and the use of an evil
self-aware computer I know that you and
Frank were planning to disconnect me and
I’m afraid that’s something I cannot
allow to happen not only as space travel
not really advanced all that much since
1969 s moon landing
but we’re still light years away from
inventing computers this evil despite
the rise of pop-ups and adware yes it’s
puzzling
besides Pan Am went belly-up in 1991 so
that prediction was really on the moon
you want to make love to me because I
Drive a monster and wear this costume
number six death race 2000
this film society goes off the rails in
a big way in the late 1970s since the
world crash of 79 no we’re not talking
about disco and Electra tack this meant
a financial crisis and a military coup
enveloping the u.s. of a transformed
into a fascist police state doubling a
society’s church they’ve
institutionalized a televised annual
transcontinental race based on killing
innocent pedestrian sign scores
Frankenstein scores at last by 2000
cities are dotted with giant spires and
emerald domes while the population was
rife with ever-present blood lust
beautiful kill a neat kill well if
you’ve ever been to Boston during the
Stanley Cup Playoffs the last one is
technically true raises the phone with
everything we hold dear our American Way
of life sure it’s violent but that’s the
way we love in violent violent violent
number five Fahrenheit 451 based on the
1953 dystopian novel by Ray Bradbury
this film showcased a frightening
prediction of what the world would look
like immediately following the atomic
Wars of 1990 here books have become
outlawed as such the fire department are
now the book-burning brigade use
flamethrowers to incinerate any and all
literature and the Dangerous Ideas they
contain
that’s good that’s what I like to see
sweet wheezing that means that in this
future your Kindle Fire would literally
be set on fire no kiss not laughing in
the pages like a cloud petals a bunch of
slides it seems to me that the worst is
over
number four 2012
okay there were a lot of people who
actually believed this time based on the
dire prediction deciphered from the end
of the Mayan calendar many people
believed that the world itself would end
in 2012 of course Hollywood showed us
it’s incredibly outrageous
interpretation of that scenario
more outrageous still is that they
expected us to believe that John Cusack
would be the one to survive number three
just imagine if one film on the list can
be said to have given itself enough time
for the predictions to come true it’s
this one you were struck by lightning in
1930 this is 1980 predicting 1980 it
showed the perfectly reasonable
assumption that people would swap names
for numbers very 21 and mp3 airplanes
would totally replace cars food would
come in pill form they don’t feed by the
little bit cup Mars would just be a
rocket ship away and babies would be
born from vending machines what do you
want a boy or girl a boy
dang so close give me the good old day
now releases alright number 2 Back to
the Future Part 2 this is the future
we all wish for his kids that’s right
what’s not to like a 2015 with flying
cars Weather Service ride on the tick
rejuvenation clinics when I take
hoverboards self-drying clothing and 19
different jaws movies well maybe not the
last part shark still lives fake
interestingly they were sort of right
about two things games no longer being
played with your hands and 3d movies
that’s sorta your hands that’s like a
baby’s toy number one 1984 big brother
is watching you man does this film
adaptation of George Orwell’s 1949
dystopian classic presenting a bleak
version of the future it has been
announced that the chocolate ration is
to be increased to 25 grams per week
this consists of global totalitarian
government’s perpetual war endless
propaganda and the end of personal
freedom the war is not meant to be worn
it’s like bacon tails in this bleak
world of Newspeak and thoughtcrime your
emotions can get you killed and your
every move is scrutinized by government
surveillance take image to me
he’s the thought criminal it’s them you
won’t okay so that’s surveillance bit
actually did sort of happen way to go
and I said six oh seven nine Smith W yes
you bend lower you’re not trying the end
of the world will be on February 14th in
the year 2016 so which totally wrong
version of the future do you find most
appealing Oh war on appealing for more
