Where’s Our Rocket Packs?

As The Guys headed into 2024, they got wind of a few major world (or perhaps galaxy-wide) events due to take place this year that any true Trekkie would already be expecting.   True or not, that got them to wondering what other films, tv shows or books released decades ago but set in the “future” of current times may have accidentally made some accurate predictions?  Will Ireland reunite?  Does the term “sanctuary city” have another meaning entirely?  The speculations of past sci-fi writers (and The Guys) know no bounds.   In Geeks of the Week, there is a news of one who thunderbolted in and out of a role with super speed, a mouse who’s out of the house, and a famous battle scene done Clone Wars style.
