Great! I didn't realize before that "Big trouble in Little China" is made by John Carpenter... ;-)) Cool to know.

Yes, a lot of producers and directors demonstrated foresight: Whether it's the now not-so-fantastic technical gimmicks from "Star Trek" or diving with liquid oxygen à la Cameron's "Abyss" - a lot is anticipated in films that may later develop into reality.

Yep. It seems sillier than most of his films but definitely has his stamp all over it. And you're right, that kind of foresight is not exclusive to Carpenter but his vision is definitely more apocalyptic than the rest.
