We finally watched Soylent Green the other night. Nobody told me it was a neo-traditional Noir movie with a Gumshoe Detective.

Plus : wait until you hear how it ends.

The novel the movie is loosely based on, Make Room! Make Room!, is great too, and the plot is quite different, so the movie doesn't spoil the book or vice versa. However, it's extremely bleak.

spoilerHmm, this post appeared in my Hot feed on page 2 for some reason even though it's old.

Warhammer is even further in the future, ~40,000AD, vs ~26,000AD for Dune

And then there is "The End of Eternity" and "Death's End" which is about year 700,000+ and some indeterminate billions of years later respectively. Things get arbitrary very fast when you get to those absurdly distant futures.
