CGI About to Boom In Hollywood

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the whats-your-vector-victor dept.

FortKnox writes "Because of the success of "Monsters Inc" and "Shrek", many major hollywood studios are scrambling getting on the CGI bandwagon. Looks like we're about to get smothered by CGI movies left and right. For those that like to tinker with CG, it might be a good time to go jobhunting..." Several upcoming movies mentioned. Some ven look like they might have potential ;)

    As soon as they release a fully funded blockbuster hollywood film detailing the rise of Rob and Slashdot, with Keanu Reeves as Rob (you know he can play the Taco!).

    I don't know about you, but I think that Elijah Wood sucked ass.

    The others were good enough though that it didn't ruin the movie for me.

    ...who started thinking of "CGI scripts", in the sense of perl/PHP/etc server-side stuff? Or was it just me? :-\

    One of the most workable plays is "Our Town" by
    Thornton Wilder. It's scenery is composed of
    a ladder and a few chairs. The story, Plot,
    characters, philosophy/poetry and acting is what
    does the trick. I'm waiting for the movie where
    all the actors do their thing in front of the blue screen, and they don't bother filling in the blue with anything.
