Hollywood must be running out of ideas, now they made a horror / comedy movie about what looks to be a DJI Phantom drone becoming sentient and terrorizing people:

I haven't seen it, IMDB rates it at 4.4 so it most likely won't be a good movie but still, this is probably the first movie with a DJI drone as the villain

I don’t think it will help after it becomes self aware.

Hovering outside the shower door, and she can’t hear it ?

It’s a comedy, but no doubt some might believe it can happen.

Who switches the battery when it's empty. ;-)

Perhaps Master Airscrew have upgraded their props for the Phantom..... Can't wait for the M2P release of these things

My neighbor does. He had so much to warn me about the dangers of drones I was showered with spittle.

And it's made of plastic mainly, I mean you can just stomp on it or use a baseball bat, not to mention that the props don't like contact with anything. I wonder though if DJI sponsored the movie or if they will sue the production company now

To some this will be more bad press... <sigh> still... perhaps we should lock them up at night? <wink>

DRONEZILLA!

I thought that too. If there's more than one, they can cover each other.

I really hope nobody here wrote it!!!

But really- it probably was partially inspired by this South Park episode (nsfw):

Cartman discovers Butter's dad has a drone.

I like the idea about the technology might take over us someday but come on why did they use a dji drone as a protagonist great idea but poor execution.

Don't forget, the P3 was possessed by the guy.
