My favorite has always been the UI in 2001: A Space Odyssey, with it's use of the EuroStile font on solid screen-filling colors.
It was borrowed by Pixar for The Incredibles.
- corysama 9y agoFun fact: there were no computers involved in the making of 2001. They were too expensive at the time. All of the monitors in the movie were actually back-projected film screens. All of the wiredframe 3D models were literally wire models, painted white, filmed and then projected on the screen. Using back-projected screens meant 2001 had flat screens which still look modern today --as opposed to the bulbous CRT monitors used in Blade a Runner and Alien.
