Someone needs to put together a fashion history of humans through the years, made exclusively from what science fiction thought we'd look like.

Sounds like a job for Bad Movie Bible.

I don't know what that is, but yes.

Notice all the pads/helmet keeping them safe from the absolutely insane levels of drip in this pic.

This is viral marketing dressed up as a meme...

Thanks, didn't even notice that. I've found the same image and made an ad-free version, it's about 5% more zoomed in but otherwise the same.

Nice. Don't sweat it, the ads are intentionally hard to see so they can trick us into sharing them, I still liked the meme.

Its been replaced with a different image now. Original had an ad for a Delorian rental company subtlety marked in the middle (grey splodge on my edit).

This is just the Electro clash scene; These boys are going to the club to dance to The knife and Fischerspooner

This is the future they took from us
