I’m not sure what I expected when I saw the futuristic helicopter (aka The Bubbleship) in the trailers for Oblivion. Maybe I thought it was all CGI or that it was partially CGI, but to see the thing constructed in full is pretty fantastic. I’d like to take a ride in the cockpit-only version that they use to shoot the flying scenes.

That looks so fun!
