Been a few movies on this.... keep in mind that 20,000 leagues under the sea was written a hundred years before the first submarines.Brave New World on a whole new scale. All the humans will be genetically engineered and then grown in labs.

And what is generally credited as the first submarine (though there were a few before it) was built during the American revolutionary war, almost 100 years before 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea was published. I do think of Jules Verne as the inventor of science fiction though.Not to take away from all the great things Jules Verne predicted...but...
20,000 Leagues Under the Sea was published in 1870.
The H L Hunley (CSA) was the first submarine to sink an enemy ship...in 1864.

That is really cool Rellgar!The remains of a prototype of this sub is in the bottom of lake Ponchatrain. A personal friend of mine discovered it and is currently the only one to know its location. The Cabildo museum in New Orleans has 2 early subs from the late 1700's.
