Queen Bee Posted June 7, 2014 Posted June 7, 2014 The concept is simple: In this thread, we make silly or stupid predictions of the future. They can be about pretty much anything, though some well-meaning rules are in order, so here you go. 1. Let's stick to pop culture references. No need to spark an argument by making a silly prediction that insults a country or race. 2. No personal predictions. Again, let's keep things civil; we don't need to predict that Queen Bee is going to die of cancer or something. My entry: Upon turning 18, Honey Boo Boo will announce her intention to enter into the porn industry with her first title, Here Cums Honey Boo Boo. It will be made widely available for free download on the internet, but no one will watch it.
Emberheart Posted June 7, 2014 Posted June 7, 2014 I know little about pop-culture references. I barely watch TV and most of my music comes from before the new millenium. My entry: Within the next 5 years, there'll be some sort of YouTube's got talent where the person with the most amazing act wins a quarter million dollar/euro. It'll be broadcasted on YourTube, an international TV channel which by that time will be ran by YouTube, an evolution of the less succesful interactive television concept.
Atreyu Posted June 7, 2014 Posted June 7, 2014 Chuck Norris will reboot the universe by roundhouse kicking a hedron collider.
Emberheart Posted June 7, 2014 Posted June 7, 2014 Chuck Norris will reboot the universe by roundhouse kicking a hedron collider. And in turn he'll become a part of the universe much in the same manner as Galactus.
Queen Bee Posted June 7, 2014 Author Posted June 7, 2014 I know little about pop-culture references. I barely watch TV and most of my music comes from before the new millenium. If it makes you feel any better, that's where a lot of my pop culture comes from as well. But it doesn't have to be just about pop culture. I just want people to avoid making political statements that unduly upset others when we're just trying to play a game. Another entry: In the year 2055, a reboot of Star Wars will be announced. It will star android replicas of the original cast, which will malfunction and go on a homicidal rampage, killing the director and crew. Since the director will be an aging and past his prime Michael Bay, no one will care.

Genetic recombination of human and simian DNA will create several live-action wookiee actors, causing major sasquatch sightings for years to come. The genuine sasquatch sues the Disney corporation for millions of dollars, claiming identity theft.
meltedbytheun Posted June 7, 2014 Posted June 7, 2014 Within the next ten years, Justin Bieber, who's singing career will come to an end, will attempt a career in pro-skateboarding. However, though he has some skill in skateboarding, he is unable to compete with other professionals who far surpass his skills, and he will be forced to retire within 2 years of pro-skateboarding, and he will start taking hard drugs off and on while he tries to find a way to make ends meet. Later, he meets a pornstar who loves his old music, and they start dating for a while, and he, himself, considers taking up a life as a pornstar. But after years of drug use, and the scars he has received in his failed career as a pro-skateboarder, he will no longer be considered attractive enough for pornography, so he drops that idea very quickly, and decides to marry the pornstar in the hope of being supported by her. They marry, and in ten years, life is perfect. She has since retired from the business, and they have a beautiful 8 year old daughter, and he's stopped taking drugs and drinking forever. However, his wife, who becomes a born again christian constantly regrets her decision to join the porn industry, and fears how her child will be looked at when she grows up. She tries to convert Justin to accept Christ, but he refuses, and they argue constantly, though he might attend church sometimes just to make his wife shut up. A year later, his wife will catch him cheating on her. She will divorce Justin, assume full custody of their daughter, and leave him for good, though she will be good enough to leave him with what little money he has left. Soon, his drug and alcohol addictions come back, stronger than ever, and the loss of custody of his child causes him to become even worse, which keeps him from his daughter even more., and that just causes him to drift even more into his destructive lifestyle. Finally, he attempts to become a movie star, but besides the fact that he can't act for shit, no one will hire him because he is a wreck of a human being, and always shows up on set smelling of beer and piss. Six months later, he dies of a drug overdose, and somehow, the world forgets what a useless, drug abusing, alcoholic, racist, talentless turd he was, and his songs play on every radio station for 2 weeks, and all Justin Bieber jokes become considered offensive for a short time.
Redflyingmonkey Posted June 7, 2014 Posted June 7, 2014 I like the concept ! My entry ;In the next 30 years, movie producers will slowly start to realize that there is a magical recipe for a successfully commercialized movie, and we will all see screenplays slowly disappear until every single movie coming out of the studios turns into special effect shows which will give epilepsy at the first viewing . Ultimately, around 2040, cinema will just be an adrenalin booster without any kind of story behind it targeted towards young people who want some flashy action before going in clubs. Our generation will thrive to say that this is bullshit, that the world has gone mad and "what the hell have you done to cinema" and that we should stop procreating because the kids we make have some obvious mental disorder issues and shouldn't exist, but we'll all just be considered as bigot reactionaries. And then, thousands of years will pass like this until humanity has mutated into a blind and aggressively schizophrenic specie. Falmers yeah, we'll all be Falmers.
Emberheart Posted June 7, 2014 Posted June 7, 2014 By 2050, most if not all actors have their acting recorded with motion capture, so that a 1:1 CGI replacement features in the actual movie. We can then download mods, where we can replace the actor with who we want. A black market for erotic mods rises, where nude patches and alternate endings can be downloaded. LoversLab pioneers in such sex mods and gains much revenue.

Prediction: Space travel becomes cheap and easy when inventors create the Sex Drive, channeling the sexual energy of the entire human race into propulsion that maxes out at 99% the speed of light. To meet the energy demand, masturbation becomes mandatory for all humans on earth.

When space travel is cheap, many men will want to move to Mars, while in response many women shall move to Venus. The Disney corporation ofcourse relocates to Pluto, where else?
Guest Mogie56 Posted June 7, 2014 Posted June 7, 2014 By the end of 2050 it will be found that Kepler 10c is in fact inhabitable and the race to get there will be forged from the lack of resources left here on planet earth. Then slowly humans will be awakened by there energy stealing machines to become a workforce for the machines to actually build the vessel needed to get to Kepler 10c. they will find that the way to reach FTL is by repulsion. They accidentally find a solution that when sprayed on a surface, that surface then repels light. The rest is future history.
Emberheart Posted June 7, 2014 Posted June 7, 2014 The moon will become a giantic advertisement venture. With trillions of LED lights, you can have your company's logo or motto displayed on the moon for a day. Teenage hackers then unfortunately seize the moon, promoting their chan boards and drawing dirty pictures with the LED array.

Prediction: One day the moon will somehow be destroyed, or severely damaged. This change in gravity will cause massive floods, and unusual shaped bodies of water.
Queen Bee Posted June 8, 2014 Author Posted June 8, 2014 In the year 2030, Earth will briefly pass through a parallel universe, causing all men to become women and all women to become men. This will result in the passing of landmark legislation across the world that does away with such things as the glass ceiling and restrictions on reproductive rights, and gender equality gradually becomes a real thing as women (formerly men) and men (formerly women) finally understand what the opposite gender was complaining about all this time.

Molevalence Posted June 9, 2014 Posted June 9, 2014 I predict another video game crash like the one back in 1983. Maybe then all the spoiled gaming brats of this generation will finally shut up.
valc Posted June 27, 2014 Posted June 27, 2014 By the year 2050 no one will be able to read at higher than the sixth grade level. Graphic novels will be considered high literature. Archie comic books from the 1950's will be worth a fortune and will come with a reader's guide.
Guest Posted June 28, 2014 Posted June 28, 2014 I predict another golden age of RPG's. No? Okay.........
Cynical Misanthrope Posted June 29, 2014 Posted June 29, 2014 I predict that most games that gets released, stil will be a fucking bad port from consoles.
Ashkandii Posted June 30, 2014 Posted June 30, 2014 I Predict that in 2300 something, an K**** will unleash multiple nukes and near-enough destroy the world. *cough* Fallout *cough* im jooking im jooking. im just going to predict that Half life 3 will never be confirmed and Fallout 4 will be an MMO and make all of us cry because we can't mod it and will say stuff like, UHUHU NETHER PORT UHUHUH WASTELAND 2 PORT HUHUHUH CoD PORT! [wait what? wrong game.]
psammeticus Posted July 2, 2014 Posted July 2, 2014 meh, singularity in twenty years... AI revolution within fifty after that. restricting ourselves to one planetary body is fairly stupid.
