Back To The Future

     On this day 30 years ago, a man named Marty travelled into the future to October 21st, 2015 in a movie called, Back To the Future. Once Marty Mcfly made it to this day the movie predicted there would be new technology inventions, many things that were predicted are not here today. For example, Jaws 19, flying cars, barcode license plates, ejection seats, a woman president in 2015, just to name a few. In some way's futuristic movies should not be made and in other way's they should be made.

     The problem with making futuristic movies is that nothing is set in stone for the future, the earth could explode at any time. I know these movies are made to be funny and to give people hope for future things, but it can also make us look stupid. For example, flying cars was predicted in the movie to have been created by now and used in everyday life, that obviously has not happened and that makes humans look bad that by now technology has not been advanced enough to make flying cars.
On the other hand futuristic movies should be made because they are funny and it is fun to see what movies predict the future could be like.

   
Flying car
Weird things that are happening on this day today in honor of it being the day Marty travelled to, first off a police unit was called to a traffic scene where a 17 year old person crashed into a telephone pole. When he showed his license, it showed that his license was 30 years outdated. It was obviously a prank but how weird would that have been if it was true. Another thing that has happened today is a movie theatre lost power, and a person came in and asked for a Pepsi and when Jaws 19 would playing. Again not true but still that would pretty cool and strange if it did really happen.

     This day has been highly anticipated throughout the years to see what things that were predicted would come true. One thing that was predicted was that the Cubs would win the World Series in 2015, that hasn't come true yet, but the chances are looking pretty slim right now for the Cubs. Futuristic movies have their good and bad qualities, and will mostly be remembered for what they did not predict correctly. People have done some weird things today, but it is all out of high anticipation for this day to come, and yes in some way's today was disappointing for the people that were looking forward to certain inventions being made.
