Last week I was on Winchester in San Jose, looking at the three theater domes and reminiscing about the [Syufy Theater / Peppermill parking lot].<br /><br />Weirdly, though we likely saw 100s of films there overall, for those few minutes I kept flashing back either to the bull in THE LAST UNICORN or the throwing-whatzit in KRULL (apparently, I've developed brain damage everywhere except wherever I store the winter of '82-'83).Joshuahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05575879673925408814noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4919095853118169743.post-42913602446301091852010-03-10T23:12:03.720-08:002010-03-10T23:12:03.720-08:00You SHOULD rewatch the Old Spice commercial, not o...You SHOULD rewatch the Old Spice commercial, not only because it's funny (I actually snorted when I saw it during the Super Bowl), but also as a shining recent example of craft film-making:<br /><br />Except for a brief digital erase of a support that intruded into the camera view near the end, it was done without CGI (including a custom-built rig that slid the actor from the "boat" onto the horse while the camera tracked him in parallel).Joshuahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05575879673925408814noreply@blogger.com
