My approach
   

This is a site about the future in movies. This includes:

  • explicit depictions of the future
  • depictions of significant events that have yet to occur

It is not film criticism. Movies include the future for myriad reasons, and approach it from many angles. They are all treated equally here, as if they were making predictions. Many are attempting no such thing.

Why are movies missing? Many movies are waiting to be reviewed. Others I have omitted deliberately. These include:

  • fantasy, magic, and religion, such as The Omega Code and End of Days
  • parodies, such as Galaxy Quest and Multiplicity
  • movies about the past and present, such as Brazil

I also may not be aware of movies that should be covered. I would appreciate suggestions.
