Who wants to visualise it?" Previous efforts have resulted in this amazing visualization of time travel intersecting Bill & Ted, Back to the Future, Time Bandits, Buck Rogers, Planet of the Apes and many more.

  1. Wiki for predictions in fiction by Fallingcow · · Score: 4, Interesting

    There ought to be some kind of wiki for fictional predictions. Not like "2430 - The Borg fight The Enterprise at Vega" but more like "2190 - First contact with aliens (Star Trek: First Contact)" or "2050 - World War III begins (some other show)" or "October 23, 2077 - Nuclear war between China and the US (Fallout)" (all dates made up by me except the last one).

    It'd be really cool to be able to see what sort of huge events were supposed to have happened on a given date according to some TV show, movie, book, or video game.

    Wikipedia has some pages that sort of serve this function, but they're all very incomplete or mixed up with real-life predictions, which are lame.
