* VindicatedByHistory: [[DownplayedTrope Downplayed]], due to the film’s obscurity amongst the [[Creator/WimWenders director’s]] works. When the film was released, it was subjected to negative reception for its incoherent plot and the general feeling of style over substance. Thanks to the release of the director’s cut, it has seen some reevaluation for its CultSoundtrack, [[SceneryPorn phenomenal cinematography]] and [[SugarWiki/VisualEffectsOfAwesome visually stunning dream sequences]].

* SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic: As noted under the FutureMusic example in the main page, the film has one impressive soundtrack full of celebrity collaborations. From Music/TalkingHeads, Music/{{REM}}, Music/{{U2}}, Music/PeterGabriel (through a modified version of “Blood of Eden”), the list goes on! The original parts, done by NZ composer Graeme Revell, are also a stand-out (especially the opening theme).

** In the introduction on the Criterion Blu-Ray, Wim Wenders semi-jokingly claims that the Bounty Bear predicted {{Website/Google}}.
** The Bounty Bear program, and presumably many of the other bits of future tech seen in the film, are said to run on expensive computer chips made in Vietnam. By TheNew20s, many Western tech companies started manufacturing their products in Vietnam, and technology has become one of the country's top exports.

* TechnologyMarchesOn: Partially averted, as GPS is common in automobiles, and computers (from desktops and laptops to handheld microcomputers the size of a wallet), digital technology is shown to connect people all over the world. However, everybody still uses public telephones (granted they take credit cards and have a video screen, and there is also a system called "video fax"), and nobody in the movie seems to own a cell phone.
** Another amusing detail in the movie is what media replaces audio cassette tapes in the year 1999. Instead of [=CDs=] or [=MP3=] players, music files are stored on credit cards.

* JustHereForGodzilla: For those outside of the art film scene, this movie most frequently receives attention for the fact that its soundtrack contains the very last Music/TalkingHeads song released.
