The last days before the Earth stood still
Just came back from the movie “The Day The Earth Stood Still” remake. I have never seen the original one, so everything was new to me.
Despite visual effects, actors and so, the usage of new technologies is an interesting point. Microsoft Surface appears to help scientists display their analysis result about the alien. Three glass cylinders over the table displayed DNA helixes and a square piece of glass displayed some pages containing the alien profile. (Obs: The first scene shows an Windows 7 loading screen 
)
Also the army people used was seems to be an UMPC from Toshiba running Windows Vista to display some maps. (would be the very first first time using it, the Windows and Intel “powered” labels still glued on the sides…)
The last one I remember was a touch translucid display with news.
And that’s it, after all everything became nothing becouse the Earth stood still.
