orangebox21, "this generation", unless context suggests otherwise (which it doesn't), means the generation at the time he spoke.
Yes, it's a failed prophecy because the whole of that generation perished without all those things he mentioned ever happening. Contrary to what he predicted.
In answer to your question at the end of your last response, Jesus said that some in those days would not taste death. This, to me, implies that he thought there would be no more death (for his followers at least) when the kingdom of God came.
