    A year or two ago someone (was it MS?) demonstrated an interactive desktop. The Island had that idea back in 2005.

    Gerty is definitely #1.

    Children of Men is totally believable, and also awesome.

    Surprised no Blade Runner nominations.

    Ha, ha - good one . That was ridiculous.

    Almost as ridiculous as Executive Decision where the bomb on the airplane had a PC architecture.

    I would want to put in "Fantomas" and "Les Vampires", French silent serials made 1913-16. Pneumatic tube postal system, anthropometry, a phonograph-based phishing scam...
