Re: Cars...

I saw "cars" and "Over the Hedge" opening day.
As an animator I normally think "I'm doing pretty good, I can make models and animate them in a realistic fashion. I could do an entire film if I really wanted to spend that kind of time on it." But then I go see Pixars film and realize how much of a rookie I am when it comes to animation.

One thing I did notice about Cars. It seems that every Computer animation movie that comes out the company tries to "show off" a technical part of the movie. For example "Over the Hedge" when crazy with extremely good particle effects. So Dreamworks was saying "look how good we can do particle effects." Pixar was trying to show off how well they can do landscapes and computer generated backgrounds. So Pixar was basically saying "ha! It looks so real you probably thought we went out and filmed the rocky mountains."

I'm not dissing anybody here I just think its funny to notice these kinds of things.
