Went to see Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow on Monday night. It rocked. I won't give any spoilers, but i will say that the CG was awesome. There's something about hyperstylised film that allows mammoth amounts of CG to sneak under the radar. It's likely got something to do with the fact that you're not expecting things to look exactly real. Anyway, I think they did a brilliant job of creating a beautiful movie that was actually also enjoyable.
While waiting for it to start, we were of course bombarded with the usual trailers. I was happily sitting there going 'Yep, Gotta see that. Yep, gotta see that', when suddenly a voice-over came on, beginning the immortal monologue:
'No one would have believed in the last years of the nineteenth century....'
And i immediately went 'OMG!!!! War of the Worlds!!!11!!one11'
Yes, indeedy, Spielberg did it. I cannot wait. It's going to rock.
