And then there is "The End of Eternity" and "Death's End" which is about year 700,000+ and some indeterminate billions of years later respectively. Things get arbitrary very fast when you get to those absurdly distant futures.
Yes absolutely. I think the remembrance of Earth's past trilogy (the first one is the three body problem) goes all the way to just before the heat death of the universe.
Edit: wait, that's the one you're taking about sorry
The novel the movie is loosely based on, Make Room! Make Room!, is great too, and the plot is quite different, so the movie doesn't spoil the book or vice versa. However, it's extremely bleak.

We finally watched Soylent Green the other night. Nobody told me it was a neo-traditional Noir movie with a Gumshoe Detective.
Plus : wait until you hear how it ends.

Soylwnt green and children of men looking more likely than anything

Children of Men is actually pretty spot on in terms of matching the real world

Warhammer is even further in the future, ~40,000AD, vs ~26,000AD for Dune
