FUTURE SHOCK

Challenge #4 in the Various Imaginations series. Hosted by dark goob.

Challenge has finished

Movies such as Blade Runner, Minority Report, Aeon Flux, Robocop, Demolition Man, and The Matrix all depict a somewhat dark technological future. However, it's now 2012, and so... the question becomes... aren't we now living in that dark technological future, which was predicted all along? Show us some photographic evidence that indeed, we are now living in the dark technological future of all the cyberpunk movies!
