Ten of the most interesting sci-fi futures

Some of the best (and wholly depressing) futures depicted by the genre.

coruscant32. Star Wars
Released: 1977
Director:
George Lucas
Starring:
Harrison Ford, Mark Hamill, Carrie Fisher

People are in love with the grimy world of Star Wars, for some reason. We’re not entirely sure why, if you want dirty roads and crowded markets, try Camden on a Saturday morning. That being said, the universe building in this film franchise is second to none, and while we wouldn’t want to live on Coruscant, it still looks pretty cool.

starfleet_academy_061. Star Trek
Released: 1966
Creator:
Gene Roddenberry
Starring:
William Shatner, Leonard Nimoy, DeForest Kelley

Who wouldn’t want to live in the Federation? They’ve got unlimited food for everyone, clean power, a very pleasant disposition in the general populace and good-natured leaders. As opposed to what we have now, which is overpriced slop served at fast food joints, impending ecological catastrophe, and streets filled with kids who have a peculiar talent with knives. Beam me up, Scotty.
