About this episode
A somewhat forgotten, lavishly produced science fiction road trip movie, Tomorrowland (2015) owes much to the folklore around Walt Disney and Disneyland. An adventure story about a trek to reach Tomorrowland, the movie has its time travel / time warping element to it as protagonists Frank, Casey and Athena embark on a journey that explores the value of pursuing dreams, the dynamic between humans and technology, past / present and future and the ever-appealing idea of rocketeering through the skies by virtue of a rocket backpack.
Directed by Brad Bird, Tomorrowland is a heartening movie that sits well with Bird's earlier films Ratatouille and The Iron Giant
