a movie about cloning human life and then using the 'clones' as spare body parts for the 'original' if he/she has a need for like a liver or whatever. so they kill the clone and take the spare body part. Non-realistic? it is illegal right now in america to clone a human life, but how far away are we from 'the island' hmm?

well, apparently you can have people executed in china for their organs if you have the right kind of money, so, not very far at all.

i have heard that you can manufacuter (!!! yes ) a body part by cloning technology and not a full human and kill the clone to take the necessary part from the full clone!
This is a genuine innovation/invention, but again like NUKE its upto us to use it in a right way.
Any way i have not seen the movie but will see now

Pretty far, considering that once you clone a person the clone would still be considered a person and killing him would still be murder. Cloning individual organs is a whole different story.

The rich are already doing it..that's why Dick Clark and Bob Barker from The Price is Right look the same as they did when I was 10..which was 16 yrs.ago.
