To be fair though, the city prediction was pretty accurate - a tad exaggerated: the buildings a bit too tall, the flyovers a bit too high - but our cities today are abundant with tall buildings, urban sprawl and far too many cars.
All the films of various eras predicting the future are always so optimistic. Humans have a forever desire for things to 'get better' or 'be better'. Sometimes they are and sometimes they are more horrific than anyone in the past could imagine.

I have a terrific book about future predictions, from the 18th & 19th century mainly. Very few got even close. Big surprise was from H.G.Wells, in 1909. He predicted that all wars by 1950, would be fought in the air---FROM AIR BALLOONS. YET, the Wright Bros had flown heavier than air motorised Planes in 1903, AND, frenchman Louis Bleriot had flown the English Channel, that very year ????
Yes we could go back and tell them, "You know that whole Spanish Flu pandemic you just went through? We have another one in 2020 just as bad." Which now makes one wonder what 2120 will look like.
