Whoa, that looks pretty cool, looks a lot better than most of the cartoons out there, and the beggining with the bugs was kinda creepy, can't wait to see this one

I must say, that this was pretty fantastic.

An interesting story, great cast of characters, and spot on wonderful dialgoue.  I think this marketing tool is going to prove rather useful for them.

I'm not allowed to see the preview but from the trailer and stuff, the animatio looks pretty gay. I mean, the trailer looks (in terms of animation) stupid. Why not just do it in live action?

if you saw the first 24 min you would probably change your view, it looks AMAZING, the trailer doesn't do it justice

Quoted from FilmMaker06
The animation looks pretty gay. I mean, the trailer looks (in terms of animation) stupid. Why not just do it in live action?

-Chris


"So why would the indie icon choose to work in animation again? Just as the painterly, pop-art look of rotoscoping perfectly depicted the dreamlike world in Waking Life, there was no better way, Linklater felt, to capture the trippy reality described by science fiction author Philip K. Dick in his 1977 novel, A Scanner Darkly.-wired.com"

And I would have to agree with the director.

Absolutely.   I think that "Scanner Suit" would have looked pretty damn cheesy in live action.

yeah, this probably not work as well as a live action film or a standard cartoon, I think they made the right choice here

I love the look of these kinds of films though I've never watched one. Like Waking Life, I saw about five minutes of it a couple of months back and it does give everything a different feel. Can't wait to see this one though. It's definitely on my 'to watch' list.


I may be an idiot, but I'm no idiot.
