Person Of Interest San Diego Comic-Con Key Cards

Right, so now SFX has decided that Person Of Interest IS sci-fi and therefore we can cover it, the producers of the show are doing their darnedest to prove otherwise. Images from the show will be featured on hotel room key cards for the San Diego Comic-Con and the message they’re giving it is either slightly tongue-in-cheek or downright worrying…

The press release tells us: “One key card features Reese and Finch – series stars Jim Caviezel and Michael Emerson – keeping a watchful eye, and the other keycard could be seen as a response to those who may have suggested that Person Of Interest – which posits a world in which a highly sophisticated, all-seeing surveillance program could track the whereabouts of virtually anyone, anywhere, following our every move — was a bit of science fiction. In light of recent revelations in the news, pardon the producers if they say they told you so…”

Blimey, if they got that right, then maybe the machine does exist as well! And it’s gaining sentience!
