Verbs in Future Continuous Tense
 This action verb is a verb to describe an activity, action, event, such as walking,
writing, etc. Meanwhile static verbs describe states and existence, such as
knowing, being, etc.
 So, the formula will+be+present participle with stative verbs will be less precise.
For more details, you can see the following example:
 False: When the leaves fall tomorrow, summer will be seeming like a distant memory.
 True: When the leaves fall tomorrow, summer will seem like a distant memory.
“Seem” (appear) is a stative verb. If we insert “seem” into the future continuous
tense formula like the first sentence, this is certainly not correct.
However, if stative verb such as “seem” is included in the simple future tense
formula like the second sentence, then is still possible.
