10 Movie Dystopias That Should've Happened By Now

By 2017, America has split up into desert wasteland where it’s every man for himself and “civilized” areas where the must-have accessory for businessmen is Cherry 2000, a female android who wears tight clothes, makes your favorite meal when you get home from work and asks you how your day was.

A Cherry 2000 is a guy’s best friend because in the future you need a lawyer played by Laurence Fishburne to draw up a “no deal no feel” contract before you can engage in sexual encounters, and mostly the negotiations stall after a few moments. So it’s easier to come home and talk to a robot who’s non-judgmental and doesn’t even look bored when you explain that rust is an electrochemical process.

In fact she’ll tell you she just found things out too, like how ballpoint pens, Vaseline and escalators were all invented by Americans. You don’t have to buy her flowers, you don’t have to take her shopping or remember her birthday and if you want, you can shut her off and put her under the stairs.
