To Tom Selleck (NYC )

I read your bio on IMDB after being fortunate to participate in an episode of Blue Bloods with you. I just want to say you are an icon and symbol of decency in tv/film, and the role you brought to life on Magnum PI entertained and inspired people to like cops. No one else could have done that role with such finesse. Don’t regret not doing Indiana Jones or the other projects. You could play a president or secret agent or romantic lead as well as Harrison Ford any day of the week. You are more than a movie star. You are a man people respect and listen to, and could easily expand your world to politics. You are larger than some on screen character. That’s why you did not have those parts. You obliged your contract with honor to Magnum PI, and turned a pilot into the top rated detective show of all time. That’s saying alot. I admire and respect you and hope Blue Bloods wins it’s time slot every week and continues for many seasons. You deserve nothing but the best. You are a class act.

David Fincher is likely to receive an armful of Oscar nominations for The Social Network, but before he put himself on the map by directing Se7en, Fincher turned out the commercials for AT&T’s prescient 1990s “You Will” ad campaign. The compilation of spots below predicts teleconferencing, Skype, e-books, GPS, etc., though renewing a driver’s license at the ATM still sadly isn’t a reality. Tom Selleck provides the voiceover narration. (Thanks Reddit.)
