UntamedDOG 0 #1 December 21, 2005 I just rented the new Star Wars episode III DVD. I must say that I was a little bit disappointed with the special effects. When I went to go see it in the theaters earlier this year, the fx looked pretty good but on the small screen, it just didn’t seem as impressive. It looked too cartoonish. I recently saw the King Kong movie which had equally impressive computer animation on the big screen. I just saw a 15 minute special on HBO about the movie where they showed some of the scenes and I must say, it looked a lot better on the small screen than star wars. The King Kong fx still looked real and didn’t have that cartoon feel. Does anybody in Movie land know why this shit happens? What did King Kong’s animators do differently that perhaps George Lucas could learn from? I would think that the big screen would show more of the flaws but it seems that video just takes something special away from these amazing fx.

I disconnected mine a few years ago, actually took it clean off, because I was doing so much recreational CRW, I just got tired of taking it on, taking it off... but hey, not having it on, just keeps me on my toes with my emergency procedures and pull altitudes...
