Looks really cool...Not thrilled about Jolie but I loved reading it in high school. It was a nice switch from stuff like Macbeth etc.

The animation looks awesome, in some shots, but I'm more excited in the prospects of a mature animated film than anything else. Once again, I could REALLY live without Jolie in this...She is totally out of place.

WTF man... is this animation or live action? I really can't tell

**BJWanlund** · 07-26-2007, 12:45 PM

Live-action with some AWESOME special FX, looks like. THAT is a movie to look out for, indeed.

And Chris, I was just wondering, how did you find the link that you posted? That IS the Apple website, you know.

That made me think this was perhaps another Pixar movie.

Well, Apple's been the movie trailer WHOREHOUSE for a while now. Hell, they even have this movie up there...they just added it, in fact. I'm pulling for Billy Mitchell.

Movie looks good. I also read Beowulf in high school, although I don't remember a thing about it

It's all CG. Pretty amazing.

Wow good thing I am a animator cause the animation in this looks like Crap!

Seriously can you guys not tell what if fake and what isn't turn up your BRIGHTNESS! the dragon doesn't look real the creatures look like there from the film the MUMMY!
the CG was so cartoonish and the lighting and flames look so FAKE! CGI in MAYA folks. I never liked the story and found it brainwashing.

But yeah whatever.. not going to support hollywood for the same old *#(#&$

It's not supposed to look that real. The whole movie is animated.

**hiphopcr** · 07-27-2007, 09:58 AM

Wow Tally, what have you animated? Because the main characters looks pretty darn good (outside of Angelina, who looks like a store dummy). Yeah, everything else looks like game cinematics (including the fire and water) but it's still impressive. The lip synching needs work but, from a technical standpoint, I'm excited to see what the final product looks like.
