    I remember accidentally walking into the wrong cinema decades ago, when Rollerball was starting. Never did get to see it.

        I didn't even write that intro, as I wrote this piece in '08 but yes, I'm so glad somebody had to come in and correct me. So many good samaritans on the Interweb willing to point out your mistakes.

            Classic B...

            let the fanboy arguments begin!

            Actually 2010 is the last year of the decade, and we have only been in the new millennium for 9 years (it started in 2001). You don't start counting to 10 from 0.

              Agree with 1. Yeah I'm sure that's what Asimov had in mind when he came up with that.

                  The future already sucks...where the heck are the flying cars the Jetsons promised us years ago? Or the underwater cities from Jabberjaw?

                        Great article Brian! I think you hit the Deathrace 2000 issue dead on.(So to speak.) I remember how CBS played it up in the ads when they had to medivac one of the Survivor contestant off one of those dang island. Sooner or later I think that actual death will be a ratings tool.

                          Oh but you forgot about the Bookburning, Government enforced birth control, Food in pill form and the mad dash to create the ultimate human being.

                            My big regret is forgetting about Demolition Man, which is weird because I seem to have the entire movie memorized.
