- Hilarious in Hindsight: The film was able to predict the rise of China as a capitalist superpower, if not the method thereof. It also predicted the USSR collapsing, Nike becoming a huge conglomerate (and with it, althetic wear being commonplace) and reality TV being out of control.
- Values Resonance: Sure, the film wasn't very enjoyable, but many of its themes are still very relevant: energy shortages, America becoming depleted of oil and falling into bankruptcy to foreign lenders, and foreign competition with newer powers.
