Oh now that is just stupid, nobody can live forever and why depend on bullsh!t anti-aging stuff anyway?ShyViolet wrote:I loved the story when they had to find the crystal that keeps them from aging and eventually dying....(yes, you read that right!)
Arthur

Code Horror
I do like Arthur as a show (probably one of the few kids' shows that I can still sit through at my age, whenever my younger siblings happen to be watching it) and it seems I caught part of this CG thing while randomly watching TV this week. It has Arthur losing his dog, right?
Well... it was only OK. Definitely DTV/TV show quality, especially in the textures/hair/cloth simulation (or near lack thereof). A lot of the body movement/gestures looked decent to me, but the way the characters' faces worked was a little jarring. I think I would have preferred to have faces animated in 2D and then mapped to their heads. Some of the characters translated to 3D OK, and others were nearly unrecognizable. The writers seemed to do about as good a job as they do on the show, so it wasn't too painful. Kids should enjoy it at least, if they don't get weirded out by how it looks.
