Background: Screenplays have portrayed psychiatric disorders and therapies since the earliest days in cinematography: In 1927, Metropolis, by Director Fritz Lang and writer Thea van Harbou, shows one of the earlier interpretations of hallucinations. In 2012, Prometheus, by Director Ridley Scott and Writer Jon Spaihts, suggests a late 21st-century interpretation of dreams (Beckmann, 2012). Objectives: To showcase 2090s technology as envisaged by Jon Spaihts in 2012. So, to contrast 2012 movie technology, showcase the 1927 movie Metropolis to allow the audience to compare cinematography firsthand from 85 years prior. Methods: Brief clips are borrowed from the original screen plays: each clip will be brief but to the point. Findings: The emphasis is on the technology on an end of 21st century spaceship Prometheus. The crew travel in hibernation while an android manages the spaceship and looks after the crew ‘stasis’: the biotechnological brain scanning allows for individual crew’s dreams to be shown on a screen, accessible for the android to watch. The android later uses its knowledge and refers to ‘dreams’ as a matter of fact. Conclusion: Screenplays allow insight into contemporaneous thinking, projection into a future, coined by technological means and ideology at the time.
