Well I'm counting down the days till July 31st when This will arrive on my doorstep

Can't wait. I'm plan to wear it 24/7, and yes I will wear my jeans "inside out" to complete the look (ie with the pockets puled out)
I may look like an idiot, but all the kids will soon be doing it :D
 
I wanted to be in the 2015 part of the film with the flying cars, hoverboards and 3D sharks when I was a kid. For years I thought that buildings would suddenly change and cars would begin to fly when it hit 2000, although when I was there in 2000 I'd since grown up and discarded my fantastic notions.

Still would like a flying car though.
 
My favorite part was Tracy Dali as Jacuzzi Girl #2. Other than that all I remember was how jaw-droppingly bad I thought this movie was. I saw it years after it came out and I was amazed that actual professional film makers had put this together. Probably in my top 5 worst of all time.
 
2015 rocked. Cafe 80s, especially. :D


I still love 2015. It was meant to be an amalgam of all those futures we were promised years ago.

When I was a kid I wanted all that stuff. I get why flying cars are a problem and why rehydrated food didn't really work. The one thing I am pissed about is the lack of power laces. There is no reasonable explanation for Nike not working on that. Nike even sold replicas of the shoes but did not include the power laces. What's up with that?
 
Had to go with 1955 since going back into the first film was such a wonderful concept.

I like 2015 just fine, but I just have to vote for 1955.

They're probably afraid of the power laces going wacko and cutting off the circulation in some kid's foot, thus opening up the lawsuits big-time.
 
If someone rethinks the projector screens tv's I could possibly see screen tv's in 30 years.

The cafe 80's was inspired. Vid's of Miami Vice and Mad Head Room with your servers Ronald Regan Head Room and Ayatollah Khomeini Head Room
 
I don't think the 2015 scenes were completely campy, I'm the kind of guy who doesn't mind product placement as long as it stays realistic, (remember, the day time scenes are set in a shopping mall, when you get to hilldale you see a kinda run-down, obviously aging neighborhood) which the 2015 scenes do, as for the flashy-ness, the outfits are a dig at old people and "crazy new fashions", and once again, shopping mall, supposed to be flashy

edit:
I can see it now, Terminator 3x01 "there & back again"
Scene: Zeiracorp basement, John's time bubble has just disappeared
Sarah Connor: Sarah slumps against wall, crying "I love you too"
Another time bubble appears, a nude, mid 20's John, with SKYnet work camp tattoo and assorted scars, and a nude Cameron emerge
John Connor: runs up to slumped Sarah "MOM! I'm back, and I know how to defeat SKYnet
Sarah: Sarah gazes upon the face of her son, with a look of confusion that turns to realization that turns into detemination
>cut to Terminator: Sarah Connor Chronicles logo<

second edit:

A theory I have, we never realy see "future" John, I beleve that the John from Derek/Jesse/the whole TSCC's timeline is the "Young" John from the past.
We have only seen future John's actions from removed perspectives *if they showed the John from the future to be early/mid 20's instead of 40's it would give it away* and that John was distant with a number of prominent resistance fighters because he KNEW he would send them to die, that and his obsession with cameron and his willingness to work with "metal" spawned the somewhat baseless recluse rumors
