Do you remember back in the 90s when we'd watch movies about self-driving cars and bizarre totalitarian futures and we'd laugh and laugh because it all seemed so far-fetched? After all, we lived in the United States of America.

One might expect that the most accurate predictions of the future would be in a serious documentary or an academic work.

Instead, Demolition Man, an action-adventure movie starring Sylvester Stallone, Wesley Snipes, and Sandra Bullock turned out to be right on the money. In the movie, a cop and a criminal from the 90s were punished by being frozen. When they were reawakened in 2032, they were baffled by a pacifist society in which crime, mean words, and physical contact are all but eliminated.

Gee – sound familiar?

I had totally forgotten about this movie until I watched the review of it on the Duff and Dale show. Enjoy this video then check out the movie again.

While we've talked about survival movies with important lessons, this movie is a little more entertaining, just in time for Friday night.
