Remember the Rocketeer? The rocket jet pack that he wore? Jet packs are the coolest sci-fi props that haven't been perfected in "real life" yet. Almost, but not quite. For now, film rocket belts or rocket packs will do. Like in the Bond flick "Thunderball" and in the Star Wars movies "Attack of the Clones" and "Return of the Jedi". It's even in "Fahrenheit 451" and "Minority Report". But your homemade DIY jet pack might be the best of all. Watch this video tutorial to learn how to build a jet...

Just because your phone has a high-resolution screen doesn't mean it will play videos at their highest resolution.

While it still works well for some users, others may have to rely on other options. Personally, I'm leaning toward the latter.

And now there's a new option for you when it comes to movies—Paramount Vault.
