So, seriously, what is with the whole animated versions of real people thing? It kind of sketches me out, and reminds me of the whole uncanny valley problem.

I really don't want to feel aroused by something that looks like Angelina Jolie's reanimated corpse!

Wasn't the last one that Polar Express thing with Tom Hanks? I remember that one doing very poorly in the Box Office, partly due to the weird uncanny valley thing.

Apparently Angelina had to call Brad to warn him just *how* naked her re-animated corpse is.

Heh, Just think back to Gia during that scene? I dont know. I do a bit of CG, so I'm interested enough to see the CG work.

OMG! Your GF blew your catchphrase. I wouldn't do that, if I were to appear in one of your podcasts.

I saw the movie 2-3 nights ago as a preview. If you can appreciate the mindset of a 13-15 year old boy and watch the movie in 3D IMAX, then you can actually somewhat enjoy the flick. Also, forget everything about Beowulf, dialog, consistent tone, and plot - though actually the movie has a more interesting plot than the original poem. I think the best overheard comment of the movie that night was: "Liberally Hollywood will show you a lot of man ass, but no Angelina Jolie's titties". And yes, there were many moments of "uncanny valley" issues.

How were the 3D digitally remastered breasts?

They were awesome! Thank god the mysterious magical golden fluid kept her nips covered!
