All of them are dystopias
Change my mind
Yeah, where are the trees? The third one just looks like cities surrounded by endless manicured lawn, what a horribly twisted perversion of idealized nature.
On looks alone first one has car infrastructure, public infrastructure, healthy amount of artistic marketing and high quality housing.
For current US, from descriptions I see, that's actually utopia. xD
The futuristic ones ignore the fact that all of the homeless and destitute are not present because they’ve either been enslaved, or they’re relegated to the old decrepit previous version of the city, as the Sylvester Stallone Judge Dredd showed us.
Edit: Altered Carbon and even The Fifth Element demonstrated this too. You saw the poor living below the smog line.
