10 Massive Movie Predictions From The Past That Never Came True

6. Timecop - Time Travel, Voice Activated Cars

timecop 600x300 Timecop really, truly sucked, we all know that, but it made a couple of outlandish assertions that were too big for its space boots. First of all, they decided that by 2004, time travel crime would be such a massive problem that we'd need our own Time Police. I guess they didn't bother to check on the Doctor's availability - to make sure these time terrorists didn't complete obliterate the whole of history. But putting the time thing aside, they also asserted that cars would be fully independent of human drivers by this point and be fully voice activated. We've not long had phones that could recognise our utterances and these cars from 2004 understood Van Damme's battered English perfectly. Siri should stand up and take a leaf out of Timecop's book and stop giving us directions to Chelmsford when we ask it to text mum!
