I've always like the sentiment, "The future will be much the same as today, only more expensive."

Gives a whole new meaning to "sunken living room".

Steampunk Rom-Com.

Wow, no Chris Cunningham vids for this category?

Since we're talking impossible here, I would much rather have this awesome (though smaller) Philippe Starck-designed yacht than the Abromovich battleship:

@jetRink: There's something so completely right about having the world's biggest private yacht, then covering the interior with mirrors.

@ricklman: Movies imitate life...again. This line is lifted from the early days of US astronauts and has been accredited to (among others) Alan Shepard. At least the screenwriters knew how to creatively steal other people's words to good effect.

Unfortunately, "What's Next" from MS usually gets focus-grouped into oblivion, or worse, the marketing dept gets a hold if it.

Personally, I would have gone with their runner-up slogan: "New from Apple!".

@James7344: Well, right there on the poster is the Narcissus shuttlecraft from the first Alien.

This looks epic, though I think the fx are almost getting too good for this schlock.

@mricyfire: So when the USB port is vertical, then what?

@Cochese: Anarchist Extraordinaire.: I realize that many mfgrs put labels or graphics or something on the "top" of a key, but there's no consistency. Also, let's see raised hands of folks who try to plug these things in in a dark room or under a desk.

@mricyfire: So, the light comes on after the key is in, right?

This has been a giant design fail from the get-go. As an anal-retentive fussbudget myself, it eats a little of my soul every time I put a USB key in the wrongwayup. How frikkin hard would it have been to put a notch, hole, or shorter side or some little indicator on the metal sleeve to save my soul? Sure, not all

@palinode: If Ratzy shows up in the end as the giant MCP face, I'll shat myself.

@Kaiser-Machead v.2.1.1: Yes, but that was at a much earlier stage of production, and was a complete overhaul from a direct to video release to a theatrical feature. It was also done at the behest of Disney, who dominated Pixar in the past, rather than the other way round. I'd love it if Tron succeeded, but it seems

Pixar is owned by Disney and Lasseter is the head of feature animation, so no real surprises here. This sort of "polishing" of films in production goes on all the time. Maybe not by Pixar guys, but it happens, usually when a film is in trouble. Rather than seeing this as a positive sign, the fact that they brought
