Message in a Battle

Posted by michael on from the jar-jar dept.

The WP has a tale titled The Messages in a Battle about the recent growth of computer-generated battle scenes in movies, now that you don't have to pay all those extras. RotK clearly wouldn't have been much of a movie if the battle scenes hadn't been so good.

    Personally, I think Gollum was utterly believable within the scope of LOTR. OK, not human - but the interaction with surroundings, the characterisation, all seemed pretty much perfect.

    Dobby the House Elf in Harry Potter was ground-breaking, but Gollum seems to be a whole generation above that.
