I can’t tell if the background is a very clean real interior or a render, either way it makes no sense for it to be like that.

Everything about the scenes they used feels so intentional and designed its pretty ironic to have such obvious and weird flaw.

    I don’t care at all about that because something else is far more offensive about this piece of furniture.

    If you look at the top above the plant, there is a stack of three books. THERE IS ENOUGH DEPTH TO PUT BOOKS THERE WITH THEIR SPINES FACING OUT, YET ON THE RIGHT, THEY’VE TAKEN AWAY ALL OF THAT DEPTH SO THAT THE SHELF WILL ONLY HOLD A SINGLE HARDCOVER BOOK, COVER FORWARD.

    This furniture screams, “I want you to think I like books, but truthfully, I don’t even know how to read. Hardcover books are more expensive, so I’m fooling you even harder.”

    It’s furniture for braggart morons. Let people brag all they want. Let them be morons all they want. But don’t make specialty furniture for braggart morons.

      Sir, this is supposed to be only mildly infuriating.

      I am going to pretend like there is a hole in the panel behind the books that you can open and store more books in, it would be cool but i don’t have hope its true.

      Those shelves are a design choice, people like to display things and they are interesting covers. I have shelves for vinyl because the art is cool. Also I think the backing can fold back to be a regular shelf

      Good catch. It seems bad. My only hope, here, is that the lost depth is due to some other need for the volume behind it, volume that is either accessible from the side of the cabinet, or volume lost to some need to accommodate something that has to be there (pipes, ducts, etc). If this is the case, then what could you display in such limited space bit books, pictures, or the like?

      This reading seems pretty charitable, I know, but alleviates some of the infuriating for me.

      I don’t think it’s meant to be a permanent wall, that plant wouldn’t survive there, those books might be fake? I think it’s a lobby right, weren’t these backdrops all created from lobby spaces in the spaceship? So they quickly dressed it up, or rendered it in place. Either way good reasons for a bit of misalignment.

    What about the back of that chair? That useless bar would latch onto anything walking by, or jab passersby in the groin.

    These are often two components stacked. There’s a cabinet box and a shelf unit. They may not have attached them if it’s a temporary backdrop just for this video. It’s also possible that the shelf is bolted to the wall, allowing the cabinet to slide underneath it.

      Considering perspective on the rest of the shelves i don’t think it can from this angle.

        The perspective is what makes it impossible to tell either way lol.

        There’s no bottom piece of wood on the top, so you only have the vertical piece. Which is recessed on the top AND bottom, just different amounts.

          I managed to find some more picture of the total closet. I do think its a real set now.

          Looks like they are indeed 2 things stacked on top of each-other but they definitely mismeasured/misaligned at the end there cause all the rest looks perfect.

            Nah the rest don’t look perfect. In your last pic on the left side the line also doesn’t match up. I think all of the top units are just slightly bigger than the bottom units. It’s aligned on the left side, but then every unit is slightly more misaligned on the right side. Once we get to the end the differences stack up and it clearly sticks out a lot.

    everything in the movie is there for a reason, especially when it isn’t.
