I can't remember now where I found that piece of obviously useless infomation.
I'll be seeing this next week, then I'll post in your review thread.

I like his films. 'Mission Impossible' is still one of my favourites, and I even like 'Cocktail'.Tom Cruise is, well, Tom Cruise
My problem was with the process of how the names got from the pre-cogs brains to the red ball - I get how they might be carved. It is implied that that part is infallible - but they don't really tell the process. Do the pre-cogs whisper it to their 'keeper'? Or do the computers glean the information direct from their brains? If the latter is the case, then why do they need to spend all that time getting more detail from the visions?Originally posted by Dave
To answer some of your earlier questions:
The Red Balls: It was explained that the red balls were wooden, and carved like that the pattern in the grain could not be faked. (I didn't fully understand that explanation either) But, maybe wood is very rare now, and there is a limited supply. Also, I have to say that if you could fake a realistic picture of a boy who died 6 years ago, good enough to fool his father, you could easily fake an email.
What I really meant was how come she knew her way around the inner workings of the facility? In the novel Anderton's wife is also an employee of Pre-Crime, but I don't believe she is in the film. It's only a small gripe, but a valid oneOriginally posted by Dave
How did his wife release Anderton: She put a gun to the technician's head and said "Release him!" What wasn't explained was why he didn't reply that she wasn't really going to use that gun, otherwise there would be two more red balls rolling down the tubes. But when people have guns pointed at their heads they don't think logically.
Oh, I loved that part too - especially the balloons scene. Samantha Morton gave a fantastic perfomance, considering the odd nature of her role. 10/10!Originally posted by Dave
I loved that part where Anderton was on the run with her in the shopping Mall, using her psychic abilities to evade the cops: The umbrella, the balloons, and the money for the beggar -- that was just icing on the cake.
I just watched this again without all the hype and that is the best part.Originally posted by tokyogirl
hehe. i like the part about the sandwich and the milk
No idea, the faked photos were not explained - if they are that easy to fake then why believe them? How do you kidnap a child from public baths and no one notices?Originally posted by angelle myst
What did actually happen to his son?
