Interesting we even bother debating stuff like this. What purpose does adding a holo display serve? The scene was perfect as it was. They are reading off all the important information to us, as an audience we are learning all we need to know. Adding such a display would really be no benefit, it'd merely be an extra thrown in just for kicks and would serve no other purpose than to distract.

As Adywan said, it is adding just to add. Reminds me of when I was a kid and me and my friends would play with our Lego blocks. We'd build something and it'd look great, but we'd see that we still had unused blocks and would always be over taken by an impulse to use them up. As a result the end product would look silly in comparison to the original, now with all sorts of extra bits and pieces hanging off of it, none of them serving any other purpose. We made these changes simply because we had the means to do so.

When I see things like the holo display, it reminds me a lot of my Lego houses with massive chimney's rocketing up into the sky three times the height of the house itself, and extra bits hanging off all corners of the roof, resulting in a very weighted down and impractical looking Lego home.

That said, your video was rather well done Davnes007. Just because I feel it would be adding too much to the movie, doesn't mean I don't think you did an awesome job with what you did.
