Surrogates (2009)

This is a solid movie. People are living their lives remotely from the safety of their own homes via robotic surrogates, who are adjusted to look more attractive and in better shape than their human counterparts. A utopian society has developed where crime is rare. When a robot is shot and it causes the death of the human host, the government tries to keep it a secret. FBI agent Thomas Greer (Bruce Willis) does the unthinkable and abandons his robot to go out into the world in person in order to unravel the conspiracy.

I think the surrogate idea would be fun for looking at areas a long distance away, but not for actually doing activities. Also real people would still have to get together to have children, and you might have the opportunity to be the only real person walking outside. It is based on a five issue comic book series started in 2005. The filming was performed in Massachusetts.
