The great thing about featurettes is the wonderful amount of background you get about scenes or filming you wouldn’t get anywhere else. This particular featurette from ‘Total Recall’ is a great example!
The video goes through the process of explaining how they filmed those great hover car scenes. The use of practical effects with CGI to give a very real futuristic chase was an amazing feat and from the looks of it a lot of fun! I’d love to see something like this as a ride at an amusement park!

‘Total Recall’ Featurette – Hover Cars:
Opening in theaters on August 3rd, ‘Total Recall’ stars Colin Farrell, Kate Beckinsale, Jessica Biel, Bryan Cranston, Bill Nighy, and John Cho.
Janice's first memories of the genre were of watching the original 'Star Trek' and classic 'Doctor Who' episodes (Tom Baker, aka the Fourth Doctor, was her first). Soon, she was introduced to 'Godzilla' and her addiction then spread to books, magazines, movies and comics. Janice continued as a closet geek as her thirst and love for sci-fi grew and was only second to her love of baking. Then one night, on a whim, she answered a tweet to be a writer for ScienceFiction.com and the geek girl insider her was soon set free. Within 3 years she became the Senior Editor for the site. When not writing or editing for ScienceFiction.com, Janice is scouring the internet to feed her sci-fi cravings while defending conspiracy theories, protecting scientific theorems and loving all things science fiction.... and baking cookies.
