Same reason 1999 wasn't anything like Space:1999

Frankly I don't see how it's possible to turn a small pizza into a large pizza. Also flying cars would produce more problems and not fix anything. Running into the back of another person's car while flying really fast would be deadly. Can't imagine how many more people die in car accidents in a scenario where everyone has flying cars.

not to mention all those drunk drivers flying into buildings, houses, etc. The world doesn't need it.

LOL! I wasn't even thinking of drunk drivers when making my post. I wonder if there's still speed limits while in the air in this alternate 2015 of this movie.

And of course all drivers would need to be trained as pilots and need a pilots license.

I'm glad it wasn't anything like BTTF2's future. Who wants to live in the 80s on steroids with bad fashion and Biff in charge?

[–] mcp7 (143) 6 years ago

Biff is in charge in the alternate 1985, not in 2015.

[–] AmeriGirl26 (15137) 6 years ago

Thank goodness, right?

Because it is Science Fiction?

[–] ThrillerTalk (1119) 6 years ago

This also.

[–] mcp7 (143) 6 years ago

Because the 2015 "future" is a parody and was never meant to be a serious prediction.

You're not thinking fourth dimensionally..

Clearly we're living in an alternate timeline!

Because we're living in the timeline where Trump has the almanac.

Because it's a fictional movie?
