Uploaded by invasive on May 5, 2007
This is a little known documentary based on the book Future Shock by Alvin Toffler.

This movie came out in 1972 and features Orson Welles as the narrator. I was most amused by the high amount of paranoia in regards to the future... some of the segments (like people choosing their own skin color) are downright hilarious.
Worth a look - at the very least for its historical value.
As far as I can tell, this documentary is in the public domain.

RE: the background music. Just you wait, sweetie. The over produced digital synth driven music featuring the occasional "hip-hop lite" percussion behind most television shoes today will eventually sound as laughable, grating and cliché as you think this does.
