In every sci-fi film ever

143. In the book the main character is a middle-aged scientist, in the movie based on the book main character is a smart frat boy.

144. Commonplace tech used daily in the movie's era still referred to by overly elaborate and unwieldy multi-word name, as if humans somehow lost the ability for contractions in the interim

145. Space battles failing to utilise all available directions, as if it's actually a sea battle.

146. Evil plans of evil futuristic corporations that make no business sense whatsoever (thinking of Moon here specifically).

147. Invading alien army use ground infantry.

148. Invading aliens are actually after Earth's water supply.

151. Tense war room huddle around space map

152. Disgusting food served on long space trip

158. Earth is called 'Terra' now.

159. All alien planets have one-world governments

161b. (pre 2016) A female president
161c. (post 2016) A sensible republican president

161. Alien races are culturally and religiously monolithic.
161b. Exceptions include conflicts between two classes that are opposite, such as the Let That Be Your Last Battlefield episode of the original Star Trek series

Didn't read the whole list, but ... doors that open with a scan of the eye/hand/thumbprint? Unhappy people with shaved heads? Interactive computers that respond to voice commands? Constant dull rumbling and the sound of water dripping in the background? The sound of things dramatically charging up (guns, machines, cars, etc.)?

A lot of 162-167 sound like the present!

The future is now!

people brushing their teeth

oh wait, that's just battlestar galactica

Remnants of some long-dead precursor/progenitor galaxy-spanning alien who left tech and possibly a mystery behind for Our Hero to crack and whose imminent return after 20,000 - 10 million years will be in about 5 minutes.
