            People tend to envision the future as an amazing point in time, filled with technological luxuries; and these technological luxuries bring them peace. Contrary to popular prediction of writers and directors, "1984"" and "Minority Report"" portrays a world which is lack of ethical notions (based on the time they are published both work tells about the future) In both work writers try to create a flawless system to manage society and monitor people against their will. These two systems differentiate in the degree of control. In "1984," a government is created to be infallible and powerful. .

Precogs are three drug induced individuals who can sense murders before they occur. Therefore it would create a flawless society where people can live safely and stably. In minority report the overall the government's desire is to protect its citizens. Therefore the aim of the both work is to create a flawless system but the methods are different. .
