Mr.I we have a show here on Science Channel called Prophets of Science fiction. basically they are 1 hour long episodes about the top directors and writers of all the great science fiction movies, books, and films of the past. they talk about the same thing we are now. scifi stories from the past that are now actual fact.

check it out. Prophets of Science Fiction : Science Channel

Good stuff, interestingly I clicked on the link and it took me to the website and before the vid started running it threw up a furniture advert for a UK store, like it knew the site was being viewed by a Brit? clever shit.

Anyway looks good, talking about war of the worlds wrote by HG wells. 100 years later we now have militart lasers as powerful as the heat rays in WOTW!

2001 a space Odyssey is viewed as getting more shit right than any other.

came out in the 1960's at a time when computers were about as powerful as a modern calculater and yet the Hal 9000 is incredibly similar to todays IBM Watson Computer. hell if you watch the movie, all the little tv screens on the consoles etc are all in 16:9 ratio just like todays HDTV's.
