Filmdrunk.com has a link to a rumor suggesting that the upcoming Justice League of America movie might be motion captured CG (think Polar Express) rather than live action. This is terrible news. Just cast Bale and Routh and make a proper live action kick ass super-hero movie!
Motion captured CG just looks creepy, like they propped up a bunch of corpses and moved their lips to the dialog.
Confused by the phrase uncanny valley? Go here.
You decide. This is from Silent Night, Deadly Night 2, and I never get sick of watching it. The video features Ricky (Eric Freeman) going on his insane rampage. That guy acts with his eyebrows like nobody’s business.
And here’s a longer version of the scene with more crazy eyebrow acting goodness.
I’ve been hearing this horrible rumor about JP4 for a few years now - that is, that it’s going to involve the government training dinosaurs to carry weapons, and that the dinos might be some kind of intelligent genetically engineered hybrid creature or something.. well that rumor has started popping up again, and it looks like it might actually have some credibility.
Is that not the stupidest idea you’ve ever heard? Seriously, all people want to see are big ass cool looking monsters eating stuff - we don’t need corrupt army super dinosaurs with guns, we really don’t.
Though, if they threw in GIANT talking monkey pirates…
I hope so. To make a Hobbit movie without Jackson, WETA and co. would be just about the stupidest thing they could possibly do.
So, over at /Film they are no speculating that J.J. Abrams’ Cloverfield aka 01-18-08 aka Monstrous aka … might finally have a real name, and that name is… Overnight.
Well, that’s not bad if it turns out to be the real name. This secrecy around the name thing is getting a little boring though. Come on J.J. let’s have it! What’s this thing called?
