Check out this 1920s vision of what the world will look like in the future! I think we got the crap end of the deal here, wheres our flying cars and I want to visit the moon too!
America’s excitement for a new and prosperous society, which sees that everybody enjoys the greatest life possible, is very intriguing. Yeah, society became significantly advanced and improved for all after WW2, but that honeymoon lasted until hippies and democrats tried pushing for an alternative society.
@@vcordsifi and from even further in the future warning you about the Russian-Ukrainian war that will spiral out of control and cause WW3 by the year 2025
They got most of the ideas correctly. -Overabundance of traffic, -basic automatons providing entertainment (vtubers), -men having telephone and a radio (mobile phone), -women having a hair light (smart clothing), -unusual forms of buildings (eco architecture and the like), -separate industrial centers (megafactories), -monstrous 600 passenger airplanes, passenger terminals, -organic ocean liners which pretty much look correct. Yeah this is decent
In the 1920's they dream of the future, and in the 2020's we dream of the past. I bet if someone could time travel here from the 20's they would quickly decide to turn around and go back. My prediction for the future is another dark age.
@@Ranger1812 Do you believe that people in the 1920's were ungrateful? It seems to me that they were enjoying a higher standard of living + no war. Although, they were severely mistaken to think there would not be another war.
@@Ranger1812 That is a fair assessment. I do think, however, that they would be horrified by what has happened to this country, and that the founders would be horrified to an even greater degree.
I think the only way we'd get flying cars on a regular bases is if they're completely automated. Too many things can go wrong with flying cars, especially when regular drivers behind the wheel.
It’s funny how they viewed cities as being over crowded so they have to add all of these levels to accommodate pedestrians and vehicles. It turned out that the resolution to an overcrowded city is to create suburbs so people can spread out.
They sure got the music wrong. But the bouncy and peppy music of the 1920s makes you want to dance. The 1920s had good music and bad liquor Now we have good liquor and bad music
funny how were able to predict these but they didn't use these predictions for products but hey its 2021 and we have the knowledge and technology to do these things that we don't know what else to predict anymore
Our technology is wholly alien to what people of the 1920s knew could even exist. "we don't know what else to predict anymore" isn't true. Predictions for the future are more educated than what they could predict 100 years ago owing to our increased knowledge, and the future of technology looks fantastic. I recently read comments on a Reddit thread about deepfakes in which they spoke of a future where you can input some data, like who you want to star, even yourself, and what genre you want, and it would come up with a film tailored just for you - there'd be no need for filming real people, and stunts, and even green screens. Everything is virtual.
“The Great War, the wat that ends all wars”
Germany: no
Imagine telling them about WWII and the Great Depression.

1920: there will be flying
2020: *pandemic*
also 1920: ur copying me!!
I have a phone, keys and candies for cuties but still can't find a nice girl with a headlight
2:37 My mans looking all kinds of fucked up wearing all that shit.
2:26 well he said the headlight used to find an "Honest" man
The future looks very different than the future we think about today. Awesome video.

"The great war was the war to end all wars".
Oh sweet summer child.
1:07. Wow! That is one realistic robot
Look like sophia the robot
Lol
They got the traffic jams right!
The women all look pretty good in the "year 2000 fashion". 2:32 then the man has a phone taped to his chest
Here in Afghanistan we have those kind of jackets
The stream line ship has taken a long time if they were talking about it in the 1920's.
I love how they talk in the past so damn fancy
Imagine if the world really looked like that in 2000... I couldn’t even imagine it like it looks TOO big
Get these visionaries in a time machine and show them takeshi 6ix9ine and the island boys
Well…hate to break it to ya grandpa 🥴
2:30 if that ain't a premonition that mobile phones would be a thing :0
Did they say a woman is going to have a lightbulb strapped to her head to identify her soulmate ? What ?
The closest we have to the past’s dream cities is New York and Las Vegas. Both are sadly being modernised. And have been for around 30 years
Well... that was interesting...
Kind of goofy, but hopeful.
2:56 well, they predicted the Burj Khalifa in 1920's
All of this at the time it was presented, was quite possible. But greed and corruption gate keeps all of humanity’s progress.
GREAT FUTURE CITY. I LIKE OLD AND NEW
It's called "retrofuturism".

@@ivorkovac303 No. I'm saying people are ungrateful. I meant today, but it actually applies to all time. Humans really haven't changed much.

No, they'd think they're in heaven and never wanna go back. Do you have any idea how terrible the world was back then compared to now?
So umm who is gonna tell them?
They know you know
How would they know about robots? They had no concept of computers at that point.
Concept of robot exist before computer
ancient Greeks built robots
@☞ོ☜ོ 66 years ago so what's funny?
2000 was 22 years ago
"The Great War the war to end all wars"
Germany: *Observe*
Yes
I think it’s the Feature
IM VERY DISAPOINTED 😫😡😡😡😡😡
If this looks weird to us then how weird the future will look for future generations according to us
What the great war did was change out empires
If Hitler won't exist, we will going to have all these kind of stuff
-not until Stalin start WW2 with Mammoth Tank-
Imagine Talkin to them about covid19 hahahaha
They did have some good ideas.
At the beginning what is the music?
I’m crooning a tune about june
The men future clothes made me chuckle lol. The women were cute.
I think the only way we'd get flying cars on a regular bases is if they're completely automated. Too many things can go wrong with flying cars, especially when regular drivers behind the wheel.
They predicted an Art Deco future-damn! I wish that had happened (I love art deco)
the ppl from 1921 has died.😭
I'm still standing
I actually thought the airport concept was cool.
Futuristic cities actually exist now but they are in certain places in America china japan india germany and others
I'm pretty sure this is a mashup of old stuff made to look more coherent than the sources.
AD 2000???...O my god..o my goddd..thats a fish ship..o my god a fish ship..
"The great war was end of the all wars."
A guy with a funny mustache: I would like to introduce myself.
He'll be fitted with a telephone, a radio and containers for coins, keys and candy for cuties.
Imagine their shock to know that we’re still using their steam pipes they laid 100 years ago
These fashion ideas are a vibe and i wished we got them
It’s funny how they viewed cities as being over crowded so they have to add all of these levels to accommodate pedestrians and vehicles. It turned out that the resolution to an overcrowded city is to create suburbs so people can spread out.
OMG it’s Future
why is the man just wereing a utility suit
RIP for these people who didn't have a chance to see what it looks like in the future today
The restored version of the song I’m crooning a song about June!
they expected too much from us xD
First terminator robot but freindly.
Is this some kind of april fools joke or something
No reason it wouldn't be. We have technology wholly alien to what people of the 1920s knew could even exist.
"The Great War the war to end all wars"
Hitler: Hold my beer
who all came here to watch the video in 2023
They sure got the music wrong. But the bouncy and peppy music of the 1920s makes you want to dance.
The 1920s had good music and bad liquor
Now we have good liquor and bad music
Я один здесь из-за задания по английскому?

Still wishing we got to live in the steampunk utopia they thought we'd be in by now lol.
