A long time ago, way before Catfish or Her, there existed a strange genre of film: cyberpunk. That's not to say that this genre no longer exists, but in the 1990s, many questionable predictions about the future of technology and Internet culture were caught on film.

Movies about cyberspace are still wildly popular, but reminiscing about the past and what we thought the future would be is always fun. Take a look at everything that '90s movies got wrong about the Internet.
