Seen a trailer to this film and at first didn't realise that it is actually computer animated (thought Ray Winstone looked a bit different :roll: ) looks amazing can't wait to see this one :D

[Michelle]

I may even go to the pics to see this one, you noticed how the characters look like the people doing the voices?

[slylockfox1]

yup as if they 'scanned' them in somehow

I was disappointed with the look of it to be honest. When you compare it to the likes of Final Fantasy, the CGI looks crap.

Shame really because it looks to be a good film. Kids will love it though!

[Michelle]

OOh I dont know about the kids, Ive heard its quite violent with some nudity :shock:

[Simon]

Oh right....

[Aearoniel]

It's absolutely fantastic! the 3d is AMAZING!!!!!!!! I'd definately reccomend going to see it!!

I went to the preview today and was jumping out of my seat with some of the 3d stuff :D

Well worth going to see it :D I'd actually pay to go again :D and that's saying something.

ETA: Yes there is some strategically covered up male nudity (it's quite funny really!) and Angelina Jolie's nipples were visible a couple of times but not so bad that you'd really notice. Some of the kids didn't notice etc

Oh and the people were sort of scanned in, they did the scenes in a "black box" type room and the CGI was put in around and over them etc.

[Simon]

Ahh that would explain the CGI then. They did a similar thing with "A Scanner Darkly" with Keanu Reeves.

I saw it, it's pretty good although Ray Winstone's 'Beo - wuuf' does sound like a bit of a cockney geezer at times. The Guardian reviewer had it pretty much spot on when he said he expected him to start shouting 'you're ahht of fuckin ohhhhdahhhh!' any second :lol: We were quite surprised it's a 12A though, it really is pretty gory. The nudity is pretty naff, I've never seen so many contrived ways to hide someone's crotch :roll: although it's a bit of a shame as well cos RW cuts a rather fine figure of a man in it :09: :06: I couldn't see AJ's nipples at all, that was one of the bizarre things tbh, the Barbie-like smoothness of her supposedly nude figure :030:
