A couple of quarters is one half... :P Video is hilarious, although it brings back some shitty memories from the sequels.

The future in Back To the Future 2 is not looking too implausible at the moment...

http://ryanchurch.com/ Also worked as a concept artist on the movie. Should have updated his gallery pretty soon.

/Film : What Are Your Most Hated Uses of CGI in Movie History?

Unfortunately I have to say the segment backgrounds I drew for the Totally Rad Show, one of which is shown in this clip. The dinosaur really need some work...

Oh man, I was hoping for a new Star Wars Holiday Special...

/Film : Hatin' on Heroes: Directors Who Turn Down Superhero Flicks

Yeah, that's a good point. Perhaps a not-so-standard comic book movie, like Unbreakable or Hancock you mean? A Beautiful Mind was great, and a superhero movie with the same themes or whatever, could be really cool imo. And I, like you, believe that Hulk is not a great movie, but underrated. The biggest problems with Hulk was the writing and the CG. So Ang Lee is not really the one to blame for that I think.

Maher comes off like a huge douche with that quote. Spiderman and the Dark Knight were watched and enjoyed by people of pretty much every age and gender. That said, a superhero movie directed by either Ron Howard or Shawn Levy would be a catastrophical faliure, I'm pretty sure.

/Film : Ghostbusters 3 to Feature "Lots Of Cadets, Boys and Girls"

Yes, that is worrysome, but let's not forget that Ghostbusters 2 hade some rather bad songs as well.

That's not important, really. I think Downey will be able to pull it off either way. It looks like the movie might be a lot darker than the books, however. Should be interesting.

/Film : The /Filmcast: Bonus Episode - A Spoiler-Filled Discussion About Alex Proyas\'s Knowing (GUEST: Russ

Exactly. But to me there's no doubt that this movie doesn't really try all that hard to get the science part right, because it kind of goes against everything biology has to say about sustainable eco-systems, homozygosity through inbreeding, evolution etc. Also, despite the valid argument that Adam makes about how science is truth, "aliens did it" is not science in any way. Science have means of getting from hypothesis to theory - and by dismissing pretty everything science has decided as "truth" you're also dismissing the ways of getting to the truth and that means you can dismiss all future scientific theories as well. Hopefully my english skills are good enough to allow me to make an at least somewhat coherent rant...
