Screen-used Tomorrowland film props and citizen costumes on display...

Disney's latest live-action movie Tomorrowland may not have excited the box office, but Brad Bird's sci-fi adventure certainly captured my imagination (and many other fans I'm sure). Here are more screen-used costumes and props that help create the fantastical world where geniuses and inventors tried to create a utopian society.

Also part of the exhibit alongside the costumes was a wonderful array of props featured in the movie, some crucial to the storyline of the film.

I believe this first batch of props were featured when a young 'Frank Walker' (Thomas Robinson) goes to the 1964 New York World Fair to show off his jetpack invention.

This next collection of screen-used props are primarily used by Britt Robertson as the film's inquisitive, genius heroine, 'Casey Newton', including her Florida driver's license, chewing gum, backpack, notebooks and even school books from her class. In addition there's also the countdown clock and memory viewing device belonging to adult Frank Walker (George Clooney).

Next up are a selection of weapon props from the movie used by various Audio-Animatronic robots in the film, whether it be the creepy smiling fake Secret Service Agent 'Dave Clark' (Matthew MacCaull), the comic book shop workers 'Hugo' (Keegan-Michael Key) and 'Ursula' (Kathryn Hahn), or the young 'Athena' (Raffey Cassidy).

I love the retro ray gun feel of the majority of the weapons, they remind me of old Flash Gordon serial designs or the like.

This other collection are primarily from grown-up Frank's house, including his ice-making fire extinguisher, the protective goggles he wears to teleport, detonators he uses to destroy the robots causing him and Casey, plus a tuning fork which can make a human pass out with one touch.

Last, but by no means least, is a clockwork steampunk-esque device which Casey, Frank and Athena find when they discover a hidden rocket ship under the Eiffel Tower in Paris, presumably built by the founders of Ultra Plus, a group of geniuses including Gustav Eiffel, Jules Verne, Nikola Tesla and Thomas Edison, who were dedicated to finding other dreamers and inventors to help shape a better future, which led tot he creation of the other-dimensional Tomorrowland.

I make no apology for the sheer number of images here, as it was a great showcase of the costumes and props in the science fiction film.

If you like these fantastical items, be sure to also check out these John Carter movie props, Pirates of the Caribbean 4 props and Alice in Wonderland film props from previous El Capitan Theatre exhibits.
