That's very good news. Animatronics are why I love Del Toro. Raserei Send a noteboard - 29/01/2010 04:45:04 AM
Thought it's likely too late to even consider.


Peter Jackson, with Spielberg, is doing the TINTIN movies with the exact same camera set-up used by AVATAR (James Cameron is offering advice), so they're going to be his foray into 3D. Jackson and Del Toro have said they want to maintain 100% visual continuity with the trilogy, so the new films will be shot on film, not digital, and Del Toro wants to scale back the use of CGI in favour of advanced animatronics wherever possible (Gollum excepted).
That's the whole trouble. You can't ever find
a place that's nice and peaceful, because there isn't any.
You may think there is, but once you get there, when you're not looking,
somebody'll sneak up and write "F*ck you" right under your nose.

that'd probably be the best idea LadyLorraine - 28/01/2010 01:38:54 AM 596 Views
But Orlando Bloom is so cute. *NM* Darth_Katie - 28/01/2010 01:58:54 AM 243 Views

After how they nailed the Balrog, I am not worried about Smaug one bit *NM* ironclad - 29/01/2010 10:13:42 AM 245 Views

It's expected that Ron Perlman will be in it, too. He's a fav of Del Toro. Arok Manok's Astral Projection - 29/01/2010 06:32:18 PM 599 Views
Perlman = Beorn, surely? *NM* Werthead - 30/01/2010 02:27:33 AM 256 Views
