Another 20 some years and all these movies will be a hundred years old..., and most of us will be dead! Pray for the Pop Corn, pray for the Mighty Pop Corn!

but their bosses didn't like 'em so they shot 'em into space . . .

Their prediction of WWII was almost spot on except the mustard gas bombs. Hitler realized early on they would be ineffective if everyone had gas masks. The prediction of 2036 is almost startling to think because we're heading down that path too especially post-2012.

Great set design and effects, and so far ahead in its thoughts.

Love this one it was the first What IF movie. The public expression of what good is war?

[derredmax]

One of the only free maison, new world order movies i have ever seen.

This is a great example of why a one world order will never work. As the movie has shown,No mater what humanity does to create peace there will always be those that cant find satisfaction in someone elses way of life. In other words. When people a forced to live by someone elses laws rebelion and chaos will surely follow. And that you will find as fact if you look at the history of any civilization known to Mankind.

Talktalk has refunded me 3 months worth of subscription and said there was nothing they could do but let me leave without a breaking contract penalty.......maybe you don't know everything???
