Title: TIME TRAVELER MOVIE - A CELL PHONE PROPHECY?
Post by: Ocklawaha on October 29, 2010, 08:31:55 PM
Just wondering if anyone else has ever pondered the Charlie Chaplin film "Time Traveler," and it's incredible scene of a person with a cell phone! Check it out...  Then of course there is "Metropolis," "Lost World," "War of the Worlds," and Jules Verne not missing Cape Kennedy by more then 70 miles in his "From the Earth to the Moon!" Some of this is just too weird for words...

In the "From the Earth to the Moon," Verne also pegged the cost of the NASA lunar program, weightlessness, 3 man crews, a mother ship named "Columbia," and a CORRECT theory on why Florida or Texas would be the optimum launching area.

Did you see the guy before cell phone guy?

He was manipulating a flux capacitor in his right front pocket!

Don't think so Buckethead, the guys great granddaughter was a neighbor of mine, she said and I QUOTE, "Gramp's was ALWAYS manipulating THAT SPOT, I think he liked it!" Could it be Gramps was OUT way before his time?
