It's my great shame to admit that I am in fact illiterate. I'm currently just banging random keys on a keyboard on a computer I found in a starbucks. I have no idea what I'm actually saying here.

Sadly, I still can't spell.

I have a device in my pocket that will give me the answers to most questions, show me moving pictures with sound, let me talk to people on the other side of the planet and take pictures. We have machines that can scan the inside of our bodies without cutting us open. Satellites that help the device above tell me where I am at all times. And of course cable with 9999 possible channels. Look at an old episode of star trek, then look at the new movie...compare the bridges....How much stuff was "updated", because it would look old fashion and junky today?

Teleport at dusk till dawn, to remote locations that require magic horses to reach in time. (Ahh Krull, you tried so hard...) Pros: New views every morning. Limited spam mail. Cons: Always having to drive to UPS/FedEX to get your packages, always having to be home prior to dusk/dawn.

It's precisely the sort of elevated creepy that comes from the uncanny valley effect....I think this is *worse* then the final fantasy movie people are complaining about above. It's almost Lovecraftian in it's "wrongness". I couldn't put my finger on it and say "yah, that moment there, it's not right" but the whole presentation was just unsettling. *clicks on tape recorder* Note to self, use this technology to make a new Call of Cthuhlu movie.
