Very true George, but glad to see you pop in here.

Did you see Monster House? I found that to be sufficiently different from the animals in peril movie we've seen 16 or so times over this year.

It's not playing at 3D theaters. It's playing at digital ones.

Nah, skipped it. Monster House just didn't look like something that would interest me to be honestly truthful. I've got so much to watch on DVD (a HUGE pile of unwatched discs!) and there are new home releases coming up this month that are much more interesting to me -- ESPECIALLY the new Superman DVDs out on the 28th!

I'm probably skipping the deluxe Superman box set (hated III and IV, have no use for the documentary, and Superman Begins was a bore) since the stuff I really want is on the Superman I and II releases.

Monster House is just more of that technology they used to make The Polar Express.

I just don't care for mo-cap movies that claim to be pure animation.

Mo-Cap is just fancy rotoscoping IMHO.





Coming up next year, I'm going to be up to my armpits in schoolwork as I head back to specialize in medical technology and get into a line of work (healthcare) that has no end of customers! :lol:

Seriously, though, the good thing about that line of work is that it uses BOTH sides of your brain. Should be interesting which is what something needs to be to keep me happy and motivated.

3D nightmare before christmas pics

Post by Jeroen » February 23rd, 2007, 6:03 pm

While Joel Fletcher was working as an animator on the Nightmare Before Christmas,
he took these great 3D pics with his Stereo Camera.

You do need red/cyan 3D glasses to get the 3D effect,
I'm guessing most of you propably don't have 3d glasses lying in the house but for those few who do...:
I got mine from that shrek 3d dvd

That was so cool! I can only imagine, how it looked on the big screen.

Thanks, Zwollie! :)

You can’t just have your characters announce how they feel! That makes me feel angry!

2008 will be the 15th Anniversary.

We should see a bigger better (anamorphic!?) set by then, or at least by when the next stop-motion film is released.

I hope that a Special Edition will be released in 2008 :D (it will be perfact-both the Sleeping Beauty Platinum Edition and The Nightmare Before Christmas Special Edition).
