Some of the features in that movie would work nowadays, such as paintings detecting a visitor and changing based on the visitor or their mood or sound input (don't remember exactly). Wasn't there also something with satellites?

Also, ironic De Icaza ended up working for... the company he wanted to work for all along, ...Microsoft. Though Friedman left Microsoft (or at least stepped down as GitHub CEO).

De Icaza was also featured in the Finnish movie The Code [1].
