    1. Ah yes, the fiction movie that’s slowly becoming a documentary.

      Not gonna lie though, Camacho would have my vote.

      This movie is very unrealistic.

      People are already dumber than they are depicted 500 years from now.

      Fun fact:

      For this movie the producers needed to find a shoe that everyone wore that was so ugly and ridiculous looking that it would never in a million years become popular. They reached out to this broke company who were selling these terrible shoes and asked if they could use them for their movie. He wanted to make sure whatever shoe they chose was cheap and wouldn’t become popular otherwise it wouldn’t look like the characters were wearing futuristic shoes as the movie aged.

      The shoes were Crocs.

      I love every time this is posted on reddit.

      I worked on this movie, specifically this sequence. I and my fellow VFX artists are hidden in plain sight in the later bubbles of faces. I pop up the first time as “Brett” top right corner, with the dark hair… at the 02:50 mark. My buddy who animated the bubbles is “Trevor” at the 02:49 mark. top left. We’re repeated in additional bubbles later on in the sequence. Our fellow coworkers, and spouses are in there too.

      We tried desperately to get Bevis and Butt head in there too.. but licensing said no.

    5. The first ten minutes is genius. Great movie and an amazing prognostication. Even nailed that everyone would be wearing crocs.

    6. This movie is not a comedy. This movie is documentary beamed back in time from the future.
