In like Flynn.

I honestly love Kurosawa’s work, thank you for the great review.

Getting to grips with after effects via Video Copilot



Grinding through these is helping to get me familiar with how AFX works, although I hit the limit of the 32 bit edition of CS4 trying to render particles.

I'm not sure the added eerie tinny silence, boobs, and sun analogue enhance High Flight

I thought the theme was space boobs?

So my question is how does it differ from a pure CG film? In terms of man-hours, is there a significant cost saving? There will still be a post process, will it get made faster? Why make a film this way?

ParaNorman. 3D printed stop motion - cheating?

Less skynet, more my pet F22.

Good review Mike, nice flow. I might catch this in the theatre given your comment on the vfx, it was going to be one I grabbed on disc.

There is one serious, pressing question your review didn't address; is there a woman with three breasts?

I've started trying to draw on the iPad. Rough sketch.

Again, my point though is that to reduce the guns available to legal owners will do nothing for black markets, and other illegal means. It will not make the US safer.

While it likely wouldn't reduce the intentional homicide rate because the US is chockablock with firearms, reducing legal ownership of guns would certainly reduce accidental deaths.

While I agree that the number of firearms currently in the US makes gun control difficult, if tighter restrictions were implemented now how would the 10 year forecast look? With a new generation of people who haven't been brought up around weapons in the home, is your long game is likely to look substantially different?

So until America discovers Swiss levels of social equity and welfare, perhaps reducing the number of firearms is not such a terrible idea? Obviously if the British invade, you can go hell-for-leather again.

Sorry to jump in, but to me you're arguing the case for better, autonomous robots.


Which I am in favour of.

Speaking of ray's, I've been buzzed by them a couple of times diving around piers. Enormous alien motherfuckers, I believe you could have heard my swearing through the 2nd stage. Underwater.

Addendum. Zarbans super hero power is compromise.

Even with things like Australia's NBN bringing fibre to the home (which could make large real time transfers possible), we're still going to have capped monthly data use. I don't see families blowing their monthly limit on streaming blu-ray quality versions of showgirls and space jam, as valid as that would be.

For the short to mid term, physical media is likely to be your best option. It costs me $7 AUD to rent a movie on iTunes, I could pick up a disc on sale for not much more.
