In 'Tomorrowland,' George Clooney loves... who?

Warning: Some spoilers ahead.

In action/adventure Disney movie Tomorrowland, there's a LOT going on. Director Brad Bird (The Incredibles, Ratatouille) teamed up with writer Damon Lindelof (Lost) on the movie that seems to combine the idea of a secluded elite community like Galt's Gulch in Atlas Shrugged, with extreme optimism and dazzling architecture of the future...? Something like that. Here's Brian Truitt's review of the movie.)

The movie's main characters are a teenage girl with a magical pin, Casey (Britt Robertson), a reclusive genius, Frank (George Clooney), and a robot, Athena (Raffey Cassidy), who's looked 12 years old for a very long time.

In the action-packed story with lots of messages and special effects, Clooney's middle-aged Frank does get a love interest. It's Athena.

See, it's not that weird, because he fell in love with her back when he was a kid, and she looked like a kid. But now he's in his fifties and she still looks like a kid, so it's a bit, um, odd to see him still have feelings for her.

To be fair, Athena is awesome, and things don't get too awkward. Still, there is a romantic moment between the two characters that's a bit jarring.
