I WISH I had thought of this one on my own but...Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: A Turtles in Time released 29 years ago had a stage set in 2020. I'm writing this in January 1rst of this year.
So it's a good opportunity as any to restate The Future is Stupid's mantra: To compare fictional visions of the future with the actuality of that year. I've already made a lot of posts that you won't see and where I basically restate that vision and ask the future dwellers if the future they are living is anything like the past though it would be. And they hopefully reply in the comments but I'll be fucking long dead.
For example I would ask you like "Hey are there ninjas and brain men fighting mutant turtles hovering in discs?
But uh unless something goes real weird between now and March uh... probably not. Not that these are mundane or boring times, just that hover tech isn't there and that our villains aren't quite as brainy...but way badder.
Watch this space where hopefully I won't ommit obvious entries like this again.
