He also wrote "We Can Remember It For You Wholesale" which was adapted into "Total Recall".

I'm kind of torn on this film. They keep raving about the "great animation" but it's not even that... You can use a filter in AVID or Premiere to do the same thing. It's digital rotoscoping at best, which means people still acted out the scenes on film.

The effect looks a little creepy IMO. I hate those insurance commercials that use it.

Minority report was disappointing. They took out all the philosophical and logical dilemmas that are present in the short story and made it into a straight line black and white thriller. It was a shame because it would have been so much better if they had just stuck with the original plot line instead of stealing the plot line from 'the fugitive' and setting it in the future...
