I should also mention that we at least momentarily survived the Apocalypse of 2000... by 20 years!
I really should consider doing a “We got the future wrong” film festival of movies and TV shows made in the past but set in the “distant future” of the first two decades of the 21st Century. I guess I’d have to include Patlabor, my favorite anime series from back when, even though a lot of the design elements were pretty credible, aside from the large, piloted mecha. I would also have to endure the sketchy Space:1999 while trying not to think too much about just how the moon would have to be traveling many, many times the speed of light to visit a new solar system every week!
