They are pretty close to proving that the universe is a hologram so I will say the movie

The Thirteenth Floor

Escape from New York

Worked on this one a few years back as background.

I thought 12 Monkeys was pretty spot on.

Thought you might have spotted that

But seriously though,



I would jump at Blade Runner or Gattaca, too, but both are based on the idea that somehow we have gotten off-plant. That's never going to happen.

The only movie that really reflects how completely screwed we are with no redemption in space is District 9. In District 9 humanity is so hopelessly screwed that even when the aliens come for our help, the best we can do is throw them in a prison camp. Thus completing the circle-of-fu#ed and more accurately reflecting humanity's near future, and as far as I can tell, his foreseeable future.

So, District 9.

I was jokingly thinking the same thing, but in all seriousness, I'm leaning toward Atlas Shrugged.

Thanks to Global Warming, it'll look like this:



I can't help it. It's my favorite bad movie.

So any ideas? I hope you suggest one I have not seen yet (Not a chance tbh lol

).

Here ya go boymonkey.

I don't think this is what our future holds. Just betting you haven't seen this one.

Good movie. Old ~ but a good movie. At least I thought so when I was a kid

History is repeating itself and the possibility of a different outcome is my biggest worry/bottom line on where we are headed.

This is one of my all time FAB movies

I like Minority Report. I like how they feature transparent tablets, or was it newspapers?

this is where most of the world is now but i want that licence plate

It's been mentioned twice already, but my vote goes to Idiocracy. There is nothing about the movie that seems implausible... Well, maybe there won't be 7 million listings for Upgrayeedd... But other than that, it's spot on...

Yeah watching Dredd made me cringe at living in a place like that.

It could go either way, i believe we adapt to our surroundings and we influence each other.
So lets hope for a tranquil environment for all

Love and harmony

Evening,

I was going to say it'll look very similar to Orwell's 1984 with a smattering of Minority Report, Soylent Green and a little Logan's Run thrown in for seasoning, but we're basically there already...
(S+F)

I know the OP was asking for movies, but i found Revolutions on Netflix. Does that count?

Loooong trailer. The first 1:27 are worth the watch though.

Any movie with the Three Stooges in it.

Or, the original Day the Earth Stood Still.
