Lutz predicts: children will 'very soon' learn from film as well as be entertained; the possibilities of educational, travel and scenic film are not exhausted; colour cartoons will come, depending on a process that reproduces nature's full range of hues ('awaiting the inspired inventor'); with colour, animated paintings and gallery exhibitions of art works with movement; museums with projecting rooms and fireproof film libraries. He calls it 'fantastic dreaming' and argues that formerly visionary things became commonplace. He also states what the medium lacks now: it 'needs, for one thing, color'. This candidate only records what he predicted; comparison with later history was not done (zero-fetch batch).
