The way technology is presented in this clip disgusts me... I don't care how fashionable that impeccable blue hologram shirt is, even if it is the new red! But, it's not entirely their fault after all. Just like how our future generations are going to be, well similar at least, they are going to be born into a more advanced world where almost everything is more simplified and easier to do. They had specific bots for each and every use to make sure not a single person does more than a click on their armrests. Also, the way they are just not interactive with each other and just completely oblivious to their surroundings actually mimics what I am told and seeing today. The way they were doing "facetime" when two people where actually floating side by side on their way to the pool area that no one is aware of reminds me of how I see couples texting while waiting for their dinner to be serves at a restaurant, or perhaps when I was told how kids were playing on their Ipads while they were at an in-door trampoline place. The floating chair blobs with their mesmerizing cobalt blue suits aren't that much different from these kids who get lost in projection screen is in front of their eyes. But, once again, how can they help it when it's the kind of place they were born into? Unless they have an amazing eye-opener that helps them see the world, much like that fancy little garbage compacting robot, Wall-E, or parents or friends to show them a balance, a way to not abuse technology.
What clip? No context.
