The business section on the website of The Economist has placed an article on the dangers of, and the caution with, new advanced technology. As a means of example they have used the newly released live action Transformers Movie. Namely the fact that the character Frenzy in parts of the movie changes himself as a cellphone. But also on the fact that for the Premiere of the movie a Digital viewer was used to show the movie, while a second projector was running the movie on old style celluloid film, as back-up in case the new technology of the digital projector would have failed.

Having a projector break down and having the planet invaded by mechanical extraterrestrial life forms are two VERY, VERY different things.
