So we're fast approaching Marty McFly's and Doc Brown's future.

[Oscar-Rio]

AND WE STILL DON'T HAVE HOVERBOARDS !!!!!:mad:

lol i can't wait until 2015 and life has barely changed since those movies fist came out.

Which future was your favorite future?

[sillystou]

Doctor Emmet Brown & Marty McFly FTW.

[sweet-t310]

Cubs haven't won the world series yet either...saaaaad panda...

And how about the voice activated tv? That thing was kick-ass.

[culturedog]

*robot voice* Your jacket is now dry!

As much as I dig cruising around on Pitbull hoverboards, I had to go with Blade Runner. Not that I want to literally live in that world, but I love watching it on the big screen.

And technically *nerd alert*... Star Wars takes place in the past, so that's automatically disqualified.

I was gonna say the same thing. Remember the opening crawl? "A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away...

the public transportation in Blade Runner wouldn't be too bad, but yeah, if there's a remote chance that I'll run into Rutger Hauer or Darryl Hannah, count me out. But then again, there's also the chance of running into Sean Young....nah, still not worth it.

But since that future (or past) has Jedis, it immediatly Undisqualifies it!

Yeah, on the one hand - robot booty. But on the other - robots crushing your skull with boots. Not a whole lot of sun going on either, but if you love noodle vendors you'll be in heaven.

The biggest drawback to Back to the Future's future is that there's always the possibility that some old coot will go back in time and change it all on you. Then again, I wouldn't mind seeing Jaws 23.

I'm so conflicted! It's like having computerized avatars of the Ayatollah and Reagan in your head arguing over lunch choices.

[HMXDungHeaver]

Back to the Future is the best time-traveling movie.

Hands down.


Can't wait to go to Cafe 80's in 2015, and get a hoverboard.

[BYC]

Minority Report's transportation system. Sure there can be computer errors, but it's probably the safest and most logical systems there are. As well as the most communist/controlling, which is why it'll never get done.

[Der_Lex]

On the upside, they might be able to deliver that flying car (http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/newstopics/howaboutthat/3366415/Flying-car-based-on-Ferrari-could-be-reality-within-two-years.html) after all... :D

[sa_nick]

No option for a 'Logan's Run' future?

:(

[HMXDave]

I remember hearing a rumor back in the day that some company did make hoverboards, but they were way too dangerous to be sold to the public.

I'm not sure if that is true or not, but I remember hearing about it back when BttF2 came out.

Kramer: Because they're terrified of her. I heard from someone that when they cut one of her lines, she climbed up the rope on side of the stage and started dropping lights on peoples heads. Story like that has got to be true.

[BYC]

I can buy that.

Considering the amount of training for airplanes as opposed to a car. Would we really want little Asian ladies in the air? If they crash, it's hitting somebody's house, not just ruining their car.

Rock Band player: I'm almost there! I almost have Visions FCed!

*crash as flying car falls through the ceiling*

Rock Band player: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

Yeah , every kid in school said that. And you always had that one kid who has a rich friend that has one , and they cost $50,000. Good times.

:(

All's ya gotta do is put on some thin, flowy fabric and go to any given indoor shopping mall built in the 70s. Though it helps if you glue a little crystal on the palm of your hand too.

Wait... you're crystal's flashing, Nick! Renew! Renew!!! *runs off to Carousel*

I remember this too. My local Fox affiliate was running pieces about it. I don't think it really added up to much, but your comment definitely jogged a memory.

[LORDJUJU]

Star Wars is " A long time ago", not the future???

[kiggidykev]

I want a hoverboard. And a time-traveling train.

[culturedog]

Found a link (http://www.paleofuture.com/2007/03/hoverboards-are-real-1989.html)with the hoverboard info - Robert Zemeckis was the cause of it all, stating that they had used "real" hoverboards in the film.

I had almost totally forgotten about this - thanks for dredging it up, Dave!

Awesome!!! Nice find.

[hawkofva]

Nobody liked the I, Robot future? That's just sad. Their cars roll on BALLS! THAT'S JUST COOL!

[BigMonkE]

Mass Effect's future could be pretty boss.

[Lily Mu]

Lol, I remember the printer that said YOU'RE FIRED!

[culturedog]

[Dr. Wagner]

I freaking love Back to the Future. I want to live in that future, where people have fax machines IN EVERY ROOM. Crazy.

[Oscar-Rio]

And technically *nerd alert*... Star Wars takes place in the past, so that's automatically disqualified.

whatever, i still consider it in the future. I've never heard of ancient light-saber technology. I just added it to the poll so i wouldn't be criticized for not including it.

Also, nice find on that hoverboard article. I'm still waiting for them to come out...hopefully ours will be able to go over water.

[bandaddy]

Early models of hoverboards. We still have 7 years.

This one looks fun regardless.

Pssh...that one can't go on water either, don't have THE POWER!

*releases his Pit Bull! (http://cvip.fresno.com/~chelz/pitbull.html)* Link up, everybody!

Thats the only thing i thought. I dont even know what this thread is about, i was just filled with blind rage when i saw "star wars future"

I mean, for christ sakes, its in the damn intro

"A long time ago..."

Stupid people...

Lucas did that so idiots like the OP werent like "ZOMG! 2015 is coming. where r our lite saburs!"

[sweet-t310]

[shocked, horrified, yet can't look away from sheer giddiness]

How does a website like this exist???

That's it...this is my new homepage. End of story.

[Ben2998]

I want that thing that makes pizza with the hydro-thing.

[Khiro]

Wait... WAIT!! IF THE BACK TO THE FUTURE FUTURE IS TRUE, ROCK BAND WILL DISSAPPEAR FROM THE WORLD!! NOOOOOooOoOoO...!!

"Makes fort out of Rock Band guitars and slips into clairvoyant slumber"

Second thought, Rock Band: Keyboard future may not be such a good thing.

[Lily Mu]

YES!!

[benson111]

I'm gonna have to go with the earlier poster and say that Mass Effect's future would be pretty bad ass. ;)

[bmcorrier]

McFly those boards don't work on water. Unless you got POWER!

[trench762]

zeitgeist addendum's future for sure ftw, not a movie actually more of a documentary, but if you dig conspiracy theories this is the ultimate.

[svartikins]

How about those dystopian futures?

Mmmm... suppression.

Seriously though, Back to the Future for the win.

[tsl141]

I <3 Back to the Future 2. It was my favorite of all Back to the Futures.

YESSS!!! That is totally badass!

I had to vote with Blade Runner on this one. While the BttF 'future' looked like fun it just seemed too plastic for me. I loved the gritty setting of BR.
