*** Interestingly, ''Oblivion'' has two scenes that were intended as set ups to this ultimately unmade project. The first being the scene in which [[spoiler: Reggie finds out that Jennifer's breasts are in fact spheres and gets attacked by them]] was directly taken from a dream sequence in that script. The other scene is one later in the film, where Mike ends up in a deserted future Los Angeles where Jody tells tells him it's not safe to be out too long due to "a risk of infection".
