Our Doors Are Different	comment	The creators of a show or movie really want to demonstrate that we are in a highly advanced future setting. This usually involves some futuristic furniture, holographic displays and, surprisingly often, really weird door designs. Doors and hatches tend to be pretty boring objects in Real Life. They are usually rectangular, flat and have only one or two moving parts, mostly because this is the most simple and efficient design. In the minds of many set designers, future doors are different. This may include:

This may be a Mythology Gag, as the original IdTech Game Engine that powered the original Doom and its sequel was incapable of making doors swing open any other way. (They'd figured out how to do it by the time Hexen came out a couple of years later.)

Going red alert on the SeaQuest includes closing all kinds of hatches, so they show this off a lot. Justified Trope (somewhat) in that the creators took steps to try and make SeaQuest appear as practical as possible. While contemporary subs of the time (1993) had fairly standard doors throughout, their prediction of the future (...of 2014) was that subs would be much more developed than they actually were over the years.

In "The War Games", the aliens' security chief has a door of the 'converging from all directions' design. The top part is deliberately made to resemble a guillotine blade. The aliens' space/time machines also have noisy powered doors, and it's strongly implied that the same is true of TARDISes in their default form. In the same story, some TARDISes are shown as featureless boxes with doors that actually slide outwards - like a gull-wing door that stays parallel to the surface it's projecting from.

Our Doors Are Different / int_f74b5f80	comment	Babylon 5: Many doors on the station (mostly to living quarters) are automatic, pentagon-ish and hinged at the top to rotate out of the way. The Observation Dome and Medlab doors slide horizontal to Centrifugal Gravity (though for whatever reason, the seal between Medlab doors is diagonal to this). However it is subverted on Earth where they have perfectly ordinary wooden hinged doors in most buildings. It would appear that the station needs doors that can be sealed in the event of a hull breach, which is not a problem on Earth. On Z'ha'dum, the automatic doors open with the standard door noise. The shadows tried sneaking up on Sheridan by having the door open quietly, but Sheridan wasn't caught off guard.

Our Doors Are Different / int_f8ee3c81	comment	Doors in Metroid are opened by firing energy weapons at them, are circular, and come in many, many component parts that open separately, or look like a bubble. Most often the doors seen are on planets once inhabited by Chozo, like Zebes, which are now occupied by space pirates. Usually, they're unlocked using weapons the space pirates do not possess. Galactic federation doors, to confuse players, are simple automated doors. The games in the Metroid Prime Trilogy explain shoot-to-open doors as Samus' weapon deactivating a force field intended to keep critters out.

Our Doors Are Different / int_fd0b756	comment	Hobbit doors are round in The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings. The parody The Soddit notes how Awesome, but Impractical such a door is, given that all the door's weight is on a single hinge, making it prone to drafts and jamming.
