Back in 1900, a German chocolate company released a series of cards depicting what year 2000 would be like. I suggest replacing the current picture on I Want My Jetpack with one of the following:

Pros:

  • Far more concise than the current
  • Do not rely on text as much to illustrate
Cons:
  • Huge overlap with Zeerust
  • Some of them would require a caption, though.

The trope is about disappointment about the predictions not having come true. Neither current nor suggestions bring this across.

Current is a very weak Keep Until Better Image Suggested for me. Not a fan of any suggestion.

Based on the previous thread, I'm voting Keep Until Better Image Suggested as well...and since this is past the clocking point and no such suggestion has come, I think it's safe to close this.
