These are the two thousand fifteen predictions ‘Back to the Future Two’ got right, wrong
. like a hoverboard, which proves vital in his escape from Griff and his gang of thugs.
Marty also wears slick self-lacing sneakers in the movie. These limited edition replicas lacked that amazing feature, but were still sold for $Five,000 back in 2012.
Plane screen TVs, like this Sony eighty five inch 4K LED TV, are seen in the McFly home in Back to the Future Two. Now they are common glance in real life homes.
“Back to the Future Part II” made some incredible predictions in the ’80s for what the year two thousand fifteen would look like.
Well we have ultimately arrived to that future where Marty McFly rails hover boards and flying cars rule the air, but albeit we have plane screen TVs and biometric identification, we still don’t have self-lacing boots or rejuvenating clinics.
Here’s a list of all the things the one thousand nine hundred eighty nine film got right and what it got wrong.
– Vapid Screen TVs: Televisions have undoubtedly switched a lot since the ’80s and in two thousand fifteen we’ll see even more innovative versions of vapid screen TVs. We can expect more 4k televisions and the world’s very first see-through television.
– Movie conference technology: Marty indeed did see the future with this one. Let’s see, we have Skype, Face Time, Oovoo, Snap Talk and a entire array of movie real-time conference programs.
– Biometric identification: We already have biometric technology on our phones and in two thousand fifteen we can expect to see more of it. Soon people won’t just be able to unlock phones and computers with their finger print, they’ll also be able to open doors by using their heartbeats with the Nymi band. Consumers will very likely get to see other similar innovations as well.
– 3D: Just like it was depicted in the film, everything seems to be in 3D nowadays. We see it in movie theatres, movie games, home TV and even in comic books.
– Holographic displays: Sharks may not be popping up randomly to advertise movies, but reminisce Tupac’s resurrection at Coachella back in 2012? Holograms have been around for a while, but in two thousand fifteen we can undoubtedly expect more use of that technology.
– Drones: They are everywhere! In two thousand fifteen drones will keep making national headlines and will also be more prominent in the consumer market. The movie certainly got this right. Well, except that drones don’t walk our dogs yet like they do in the movie.
–Pepsi Flawless: In October, Pepsiunveiled a limited edition version of its soft drinkmade to resemble the brand of cola Marty orders in a diner in 2015.
– Rejuvenation masks/clinics: A entire lot of people would appreciate these rejuvenating masks and clinics, but unluckily the technology for that is not here yet. We won’t be able to peel of our face and look youthfull and beautiful like Doc did in the movie.
– Hover board: Albeit several people have attempted creating a hover board, there still isn’t one like the crimson anti-gravity board Marty uses in the movie to soar the sky. We’ll have to wait for virtual reality consoles to hit the market and see if someone makes a hoverboard simulation game.
– Self-lacing footwear: If these existed, the lives of every child would be so much lighter. Actually, the lives of everyone would be much lighter. Albeit self-lacing footwear do not exist yet, they might in a near future. Nikeis reportedly working on self-tying sneakers.
– Stationary exercise bicycles at Cafes: It’d be a bit ridiculous if these existed. Let’s hope that via the year two thousand fifteen gyms and cafes remain separated.
– Fax machines and phone booths: This is one of the fattest predictions the movie got wrong. In the movie everywhere the protagonist went there would be fax machines. Albeit they are still used, they are not as prominent as the movie depicted them to be. Phone booths are also seldom. Those two are undoubtedly technology of the past.
– Flying cars: It’d be amazing to have air highways and flying cars, better yet, time traveling cars. However, cars aren’t like the rest of the technology that is rapidly growing and switching. There have been people who’ve invented flying cars, but none that look like the DeLorean DMC-12.
