In the year 2020 ...

Anno 2020 - I gladiatori del futuro (1983)
Sealab 2020 (1972)
Police 2020 (1997)
Battle Queen 2020 (2001)
Real Steel (2011)
Pacific Rim (2013)

So 2020 is all about gladiators vs. fascists, living undersea, deadly tuberculosis outbreak, killer comet, boxing robots and giant robots. They got one almost right and I have a feeling that Boston Dynamics is already working on boxing robots.

We were supposed to have flying cars, I don't see any flying cars, not even one!

The Jetsons was totally misleading
We were lied to people!!!

Can you imagine the chaos flying cars could cause.

[–] ShogunofYonkers (77494) 5 years ago

I see the chaos these idiots cause on the parkways everyday with four wheels on the road, flying cars would probably be a terrible idea lol!

[–] AndyKing1967 (38290) 5 years ago

Exactly my point. The only solution would be total automatic pilot (unless you had a pilots licence).

Or a Bladerunner license, those guys know what's up!

I'm still waiting for a proper jet pack. I blame the U.S. military because in the 60s they acquired the designs of a very compact jet engine for a jet pack and declared it top secret. The engine is now used in cruise missiles.
