If you love futuristic technology don't miss Beowulf in 3D ( don't even bother in 2D )
Really incredible - uses the kind of animation I was raving about in Jane and the Dragon. The 3D effects are wonderful.
If you're old enough to remember the 3D of the 50s, this is particularly fun to see how far this has come - both in the technology and visualization of how to take advantage of it. And from previews shown with the movie, next year is going to see more of this. ( Journey to the Center of the Earth for one )
This is one you don't want to wait for on DVD. ( though I can't imagine 3D won't be part of HD TV broadcasts in a year or two )
Charles Hankey
Though a good deal is too strange to be believed, nothing is too strange to have happened.
- Thomas Hardy
Half the harm that is done in this world is due to people who want to feel important. They don't mean to do harm-- but the harm does not interest them. Or they do not see it, or they justify it because they are absorbed in the endless struggle to think well of themselves.
-- T. S. Eliot
Democracy is two wolves and a sheep voting on what to have for lunch.
Liberty is a well-armed sheep contesting the vote.
- Ben Franklin
Pardon him, Theodotus. He is a barbarian, and thinks that the customs of his tribe and island are the laws of nature.
