It's hard to believe! Five movies that predicted the future with incredible accuracy. Video
Watching movies from the 1980s and 90s today, one can't help but notice how accurately some filmmakers predicted the future, because it has already become a part of our lives. However, if you delve into the history of these films, it becomes clear that at the time of scripting, video conversation apps, flying cars and other devices were just a fantasy.
More than 30 years ago, it was hard to say for sure whether the ideas of the directors of fantastic movies will be realized by future generations, but even now these inventions can be used. OBOZREVATEL will tell about 5 tapes, which opened the curtain of the future to the audience (to see the photo, scroll to the end of the page).
WarGames (1983)
If we remember the stage of development of the Internet in those years, it is safe to say that hackers and cybercriminals were not yet known in the real world. However, in "WarGames," viewers were warned how insecure data on the global network could be when a hacking expert took over.
Back to the Future 2 (1989)
There are still a lot of inventions in the Back to the Future franchise that people will have to realize, but it's already impossible to imagine the present without one of them. In one of the scenes, you can admire how a video call was imagined in 1989 and compare it with how simple and accessible it has become now.
Forbidden Planet (1956)
Cell phones in the 1950s and 60s could only be shown to people on screen, which is what they did in Forbidden Planet. Who would have thought that handheld communication devices would be so functional that it is hard to imagine life without them in 2023.
Terminator (1984)
Ukrainians are well aware of how useful drones are during combat operations. Reconnaissance, strike and other army-oriented flying devices were envisioned many years ago, depicting them as hunter planes.
Blade Runner (1982)
The construction of skyscrapers became popular not so long ago, and digital advertising banners on buildings were nothing to fantasize about 40 years ago. Today, however, it is a common sight in many countries and their capitals. In "Blade Runner", the vision of the future look of megacities is very much in line with the present day.
Earlier OBOZREVATEL wrote about how changed the actors of the vampire saga "Twilight". Since the release of the first movie has passed 15 years.
