Those of us who remember Science Fiction movies and TV Series of the the 1950's, 1960's and 1970's were often astonished by the machines and the technologies portrayed. Everything looked cooler, more impressive and more spectacular than what we had at the present. We oohed and ahhhed at the brilliance of the science and wondered at how clever, inspired and ingenious the inventors of all have the hardware that their minds devised.
Today, The level of the computers and telephones seem to be intimidating to the Science Fiction TV and Movie Writers.. They do not want to be laughed at by people thinking a few years from now that , " What the writers of that movie predicted will be invented 600 years from now, is available right now, just SEVEN years after that movie was released! " The writers tend to be more constrained and write stories about alien civilizations, in rather vague terms, or human interest stories rather than bold tales of daring and imagination.
Do you agree? Do the Science Fiction Movies and TV Shows of Today seem rather pale compared to the ones of 40 and 50 years ago?
