Very unrealistic. I bet there will still be paper NYT in 15 years, much less 5.

I watched Back to the Future the other day, the trilogy was being shown on one of the premium networks. Remember when they go into the future and there are flying cars, Mr. Fusion, hoverboards, all kinds of crazy stuff? This movie was made in 1985 and they went into the future 30 years - 2015. It is now 2007 and it is comical to watch this movie and see what people imagined we would have in 8 years.
