I was in a Milwaukee hotel last night and rented the George Clooney movie, Up in the Air. If you watch very closely when they crash the tech-ie convention they pass a sign at the entrance to the show floor. On that sign it says (among other things) Autodesk.
Keep in mind the movie was freaking me out a bit as I could not help but see myself in Clooney's character. The Autodesk cameo was even more startling.
If you travel a lot, see the movie. If you travel too much, see the movie. You'll laugh out loud and also be a bit disturbed by how familiar it is! I go home now!
I had a strange deja vu experience like this as well on a trip to Korea - for recreation, not business. I passed a number of Autodesk resellers walking around Seoul & Daegu, then saw this cameo in "Up In The Air" on the way home... Autodesk is everywhere!

Great movie! sure suitable for travelers. There are several of other movies, though, that are also perfect for travelers, but there are some that you shouldn't see, well..like, "airplane!" :)
