Frankly, I think the thing that they all get so wrong is over-estimating the amount of time that would actually be spent on the interface design.

Ex: http://24.media.tumblr.com/d1443e589eb392e808a8c57b3d4dd0c9/...

Why display a nicely-tiled "Emergency" screen, when you could just pop up a dialog box and use the built-in exclamation icon?

What's most striking to me is how the older films got the future wrong. Mechanical and computer interfaces of their time were gray and clunky, so they imagined future interfaces would be even more alienating (as things got more "high-tech"). Now the "future interfaces" in our movies have sleeker, more beautiful displays.

Apparently this is a independent, minimalist atmospheric sci-fi game currently in development.
