Jetsons. Made me think of this clip. George insults someone when asking for directions. Many act this way today when they don’t get what they want.

Yep. May be dumb, but I ain't lost.

Planet of the Apes..
Collapse of civilizations is common. Sadly, I think the Mad Maxx scenario is probably more realistic.
Demolition Man, 100% spot on.
Despite being an older movie, I decided to take a chance on it recently and was pleasantly surprised.Nevere hear of Idiocracy. Had to Google it. Here is a quick link if others are like.me.and.not familiar:

It's frighteningly accurate.
Flintstones and we will all live in a mega city called Bedrock.
Cyberpunk 2077 is a plausible take on the near future
Hoping for Rollerball.
I loved the scene where Stallone swears to get tickets to use as Toilet Paper.
A combination of Idiocracy and the surveillance and targeted advertising of Minority Report.
You beat me to it!
This movie is unfortunately accurate to a tee. I've found that there are two kind of people after watching it. Either, "That was stupid, I don't get it", OR, "That was the funniest and terribly accurate movie I've ever seen"
You'll need to see it several times to catch all the humor. It's one of the biggest sleepers ever.
Mad Maxx is a fantasy. Human civilizations rise and fall, yes. Natural disasters, wars, diseases, famine. It happens. But we always reestablish the rule of law, government and society structures, monetary systems, and open commerce because this is how humans thrive. Not by killing one another in a pseudo post apocalyptic anarchy.
