hey, yeah. you just hit the nail on the head. It really IS that way. pretty much every 3D movie is a giant showcase for a new feature in programming/animation. Robots had A huge number of reflective surfaces and sparks and odd lighting tricks. Toy Story was one of the first movies to use a translucent shader, with A Bug's Life following it up with Tons of translucents. so yeah, i like to see movies and see all the new goodies they are developing in animation.
Between Andy B. and Andy G. being Andy A. has some unspoken expectations put on it.
