Old films that badly predicted the future...

Currently watching T2;judgement day.
The terminators have come back from 2029. Not sure we're at time travel level in 3 years time

BTTF2, the characters travel back from 2015.

Both films got the future very very wrong.

What other films from the past have got the present very wrong?

Not sure that Terminator is that wrong about an AI takeover.

Blade Runner, made in 1982, set in a dystopian 2019. Off-world colonies, androids almost indistinguishable from humans, flying cars...? One of my very favourite sci-fi films, but hardly a good prediction of the future.

Sadly the opposite - ‘Idiocracy’ did a good job of predicting the future, and it doesn’t look great so far 🙁
