- Score: 8/10
•The Minority Report: a special unit that employs those with the power of precognition to prevent crimes proves itself less than reliable… •We Can Remember It For You Wholesale: an everyguy’s yearning for more exciting “memories” places him in a danger he never could have imagined (basis of the feature film Total Recall)… •Paycheck: a mechanic who has no memory of the previous two years of his life finds that a bag of seemingly worthless and unrelated objects can actually unlock the secret of his recent past – and insure that he has a future… •Second Variety: the UN’s technological advances to win a global war veer out of control, threatening to destroy all of humankind (basis of the movie Screamers)… •The Eyes Have It: a whimsical, laugh-out-loud play on the words of the title.
