I think today's films still have futurism but we don't want to see it as that because they predict the future will be a burned out and destroyed Earth with us living elsewhere. And that is depressing.
Dystopias have always existed; a few decades ago it was nuclear holocaust, now it's ecological destruction, but visions of a destroyed Earth are nothing new.
Could the dystopian future : happy future ratio be a valid metric for how our society feels that society and the future itself is going? If so, then perhaps we, the general public, no longer (or infrequently now) see a happy future, but a dystopian one, at least in the next 200 years
