in the future, I want cities to look like traditional cities in the past, in terms of architecture. Just with better technology!

Am Vorabend der US-Wahlen musste ich was positives anschauen…Du hast mich gerettet und ich habe für 10 Minuten meine Panikattacken vergessen das der Orange wirklich Präsident wird…..

Where is the place for the golf bag(s)?

Fantastic! Thank you!🤓🖖🇩🇪

It's amazing how little reference there is to energy use. The Ecological Overshoot Unraveling will soon bring an end to most of these dreams. Watch the atmospheric CO2 and correlated global temperatures...

Make Ancient Mesopotamian Retrofuturism

I disagree. The future we imagined after seeing those old retro-futuristic ideas is in fact here, it's just blended and hidden in many places. Check out those old film clips showing the future home, the future car, the future highways and more. In the United States, most homebuyers want a traditional curb appeal for their modern home, but they also want an automatic garage door, a smart doorbell system, computer-controlled central heating and cooling, state-of-the-art kitchen appliances, and many other futuristic things. Many of the houses built in the middle of the 20th Century still stand, but they've been outfitted with several of these latest upgrades. Even the most humble little cottage will have LED lighting, a huge television screen, a programmable microwave oven, and Internet connectivity. The future is certainly here, but a lot of the vintage features of the past are also still here.

Ridiculous premise - seems like someone's trying to make the Starship look like less of a joke.

We are not ready for the future.

except Apple, for sure :)

Maybe its abandoning the gold standard in 1971 ended this progressive trajectory

If you get a self driving car your lazy like why self driving cars are for lazy you should put effort in because people get lazier and lazier the more inventions are made or advancements my dad said when he was a child the remote for TV did not exsist and he had to walk to the TV now we have remotes and self driving cars should be banned

Futurist never factor in human nature.

I really like the cityscapes in the background of the original Star Trek series.

The prospect depicted herein ignores the basis upon which we all live and will need to live in the future: Mother Nature. Catastrophe is now and in the future.

Maybe we would have cool shit if people didn't concentrate on those damn phones. Its been a cancer more than anything really useful.

The future is already here so enjoy it.

Without Walt it was all downhill for his wonderful world.

Just discovered your channel. I really love the videos that you’re doing. Keep it up!

My country has a monorail train system now…it’s awesome. America should start investing in monorail s. They’re very convenient, fast, and reliable!

I live in Southern California, a few miles from the 405 Freeway, which is one of the busiest highways in the U.S. No section of it is two-stories, other than very short sections where there is an overpass. Yet, when I visited Mexico City about a decade ago, I was amazed by their two-story, six lane freeways. In other words, there were six lanes on the ground level and six lanes above. They run from the airport all the way to the outskirts of the city, about an hour’s worth of travel time, 12 lanes total. I was staying in a high rise and noticed a huge number of helicopters flying overhead. After some research, I found out Mexico City is the second city in the world with the most heliports. Rio de Janeiro is number one. Japan has a city which comes in third in heliports. For comparison, Los Angeles is the 11th city with most heliports. Going back to Mexico City, I was also surprised by the number of parking lots with automated systems, where cars are stacked one on top of the other, elevator style, and at the press of a button, your car is retrieved. Very Jetsons style! 🛸 I don’t understand why we don’t have these systems in the U.S. Probably too much red tape and the influence of the car industry 🚗 🚘 🚙

11:09 I saw modern cars on it

Chesley Bonestell was a big part of my childhood. His space art was prominently featured the World Book Encyclopedia my family had in the 1960s. I loved space exploration and was captivated and awed by Bonestell's visions.

We are developing a retro real flying car similar to the Blade Runner flying car that would fit in very well in this video. It is called Sky Chaser and looks and drives like a car, and flies both vertically like a drone and horizontally like a plane, in addition it is amphibian. An artistic picture of the vehicle can bee seen in my Icon, and We are located in the middle of Sweden, and are developing and test in a full scale prototype. Clicking on my icon you will see a project presentation and several test flight videos. For more information Google search Sky Chaser flying car.

The thing I like about this retro futurism era is that everything looked fresh and optimistic, unlike the 80s futurism such as Blade runner, Mad Max or The Clockwork Orange, which looks dark, hostile and somewhat dirty. In the 1950s peoples were more confident about the future, unlike today.

20+ years of big companies padding their pockets.. and microsoft’s mediocre technology having a stranglehold on society didn’t help

I moved to Beijing in 2008 under the impression that this futurism was real. As it turned out, it was a hoax. I worked in a tall building that was completed mostly on the outside for visual impact for the Olympic games that year. Most of the building didn't even have plumbing or running water. Similarly the new subways and many other structures were disappointing once you got past the surface. When I traveled to the countryside and I saw Chinese living exactly as they did in 1949. Same thing when I traveled to Shanghai, Qingdao, Hong Kong and Guangzhou. Don't let the false modernity of Chinese cities fool you; all is not as it seems.

My uncle collected old Popular Science and Popular Mechanics magazines in the 1960s and I was always so thrilled to visit My uncle lived in the city, and we had to drive the newly-built interstate highway system with the flyover interchanges to reach his house. Back then, it seemed it was all coming true.

Eu acho incrível o Retro Future, a arquitetura de como as pessoas imaginavam o futuro antigamente é muito bonito visualmente.

Vehicle at 5:43 is similar to the Antarctic Cruiser kzbin.info/www/bejne/poiTlo2IpLZrbMksi=x1SIkn3B4DQULeD_

go back, we went the wrong way.

i'm from Brasil. Loving your contente

I like the 90s style Star Trek architecture.

I know I'm in the minority here, but I really like this type of architecture.

"Milk... Eggs... But-ter... Bacon... Beer... Hot-dogs... FARM Stores!" Drive through and get your groceries delivered to your automobile today.

Chesley Bonestell's futuristic paintings weren't just technically plausible, they were also beautiful. Aside from the futuristic subject matter, they worked on the artistic level as well.

i hope we go back to a classic design with these retrofuturism designs and it truly becomes a preffered design

I remember seeing the way cool future concept cars ,cities,and housing at the 1964 Worlds Fair in New York. 2001 A Space Odyssey, and the Jetsons ,and Disney shaped my ideas of future possibilities.

Rather telling how retrofuturistic landscapes were absolutely dominated and consumed by the wonders of technology. Prophesy fulfilled it would seem.

As far as transparent domes on Mars go..... :) It's not just meteorites, debris from those ships landing and launching right next to it are also a danger if they malfunction. Plus, the day/night heat cycle would alternately cook and chill the air in your dome making it expand and contract considerably. Also, it would need to be a radiation screening dome of great protective power, or everyone gets a nasty sunburn. Klaus is a legend....

The Japanese drawings make me think of the old Thunderbirds art work.

I just want to be there. In all of them.🤧🤕

Alas, we will never get our flying cars or hoverboards unless their is a major revision to the laws of physics or at least to our understanding of them.

Please note that it was likely Frank Lloyd Wright's Fallingwater (the Kaufmann House) designed in 1935 and built in 1937 that inspired the futuristic art in the 1960s and not the other way around.

MCU Fantastic Four

Very nicely done video! I am about 10 years younger than the person born in the '40s you described at the start, yet I experienced all those feelings you mentioned them having. I grew up in the '60s, and was always future focused. I loved the 21st Century that was to come a lot more than the one that came!

At 12:15 I can see Commander Shepards favorite shop on the Citadel

The upcoming movie 'Fantastic Four: First Steps' is all about retro futurism and the space race. It's going to be awesome!
