I was thinking today how tragic it was that I had no time to plan for judgment day (August 29, 1997) and also Baby Diego's birthday (June 21, 2009). With the recent Lisa Simpson's wedding date, I thought it would be helpful to have a listing of all future dates referenced in movies, so we can celebrate accordingly when the time comes. I will start off with:

2010: The year we make contact (2010
October 21, 2015: Marty McFly arrives in the future (Back to the Future, part II)
February 14, 2016: Pris incept date (Blade Runner)
November, 2019: Replicants land on earth (Blade Runner)
2022: Soylent Green
2054: Minority Report

Opening titles for Blade runner give Nov 2019, but no date. per imdb: "The incept (birth) date of Pris (Daryl Hannah) is 14 February 2016."

Not zombies, but not exactly vampires either. I'd say "infected with vampiric symptoms". And a bad case of CGI in the latest outbreak.
