CG worse than many realtime games (HL2 anyone?) Plus they clearly BOTCHED gamma during the transcode of the trailer!  Not much hope for this one.

Yeah, it does!   reply

Look like shit, that is.

Why? Maybe hubris.

The idea that every pixel of a film needs to be controlled.

They've controlled the soul right out of this.

why?   reply

back in the 80s when the concept was first mentioned that someday we would see CG actors replace real ones, i thought: yeah right.

well here it is.

but why? is it cheaper? not for long. is anthony hopkins any younger looking? no. is AJ any hotter? no. is bob zemekis making zombie movies now? yes.

my guess is they don't show you much continual movement in the trailer so you don't realize you're looking at CG zombies.

as an animator, i say this is gonna suck.

It's Denmark, it's windy, but you'd better get your top so Mr. Badger can admire your muscles. 'Cos he's not gay or anything.
