I liked how they mixed in current bars and futuristic cars. In many movies that take place in the future, only futuristic cars are shown on the road. Why? Today there are older cars on the road, so why shouldn't there be present day cars on the road in the future? In The Island, even cars from the 90's were shown in really bad shape.

That was a nice touch...by then, today's cars will be 20 years old. It made it seem way more realistic.
