Now that is the best prediction of the future I have ever seen! Well maybe not the whole invisble nake women thing but it bets blade runner you got to admit that! Has anyone read the 2nd comic book (manga)?

The film was good and I've dabbled in some of the comics. It is a fairly realistic prediction of the future but the best prediction I've seen is the Fifth Element Universe

Well, I thought it was a apretty accurate and well thought out depiction of what the future world of Earth will be like, so sue me!!

i thought it looked ridiculous!! (5th element) pretty much all the costumes were so extreme. minority report, despite the fact that it should have ended 3 times, was a better depiction in my opinion. and it's what 5th element was going for only on a more realistic level. granted there were no other peoples/planets in minority report.

I love Ghost In The Shell. My favorite scene is where she has her therm-optics on and she's kicking dudes ass while invisible. You can see his bones braking. Plus the overall atmosphere was just plain cool.

Ya blood was good: had perfect animation but it was no cyber punk prediction of the future... anyone seen Bubble Gum Crisis 2040 or 2033? that little nano-robtic girl Galatia; she gave me the creeps man!

5th element was totally homosexual. In the flaming sense. Anyone watch Evangelion? Pretty neat.

Fritz Lang's Metropolis is a pretty good representation of the future, if you're a classist from the 20's.

EVA was like bashing my head against a wall in 40min sessions! That thing made no since! I was left permanently brain damage after watching the end movies!
