Kung Fu Panda

Because no Panda can do that stuff, and also I'm not much of a DreamWorks fan.

And Cars can't talk...And rats can't cook...And penguins can't surf.

Look, it's a cartoon. That's what cartoons do.

Remy, you'll need to tone down that headache-inducing signature image. It's too big and too loud.

Choose one and let it stand. Thanks.

No kidding, its making the page act up for me. Just a hunch, but I think it was intentional.

Regardless, here's some good news on Panda. So far so good!

it's 2.35 (well, actually 2.4)

Am I looking at the wrong trail then? The one I saw (the Jack Black thing) was 1.78.

Is the second "movie clips" preview 2.4 then? Very cool that they've shot it wide.

Two words: Totally Awesome.

Thanks.

Yes, they look nice.

Oddly shaped...But nice.

Yeah well, isn't animation supposed to be all about caricature?

Post by **Meg** » November 15th, 2007, 7:02 am

No, the designs are great - it's the shape of the stills that bothers me.

How come?

They're widescreen 2.35:1, proof that the movie will look <I>great</I>!

Think <I>Incredibles, Cars, Ratatouille</I> wide. I think this is the first time DWA have made a (computer) movie in this ratio. Their only previous one was the tradigital Spirit.

Unfortunately I don't really notice that sort of thing. I don't have a trained eye for it yet.

Anyway, if that's a good thing, then all for the better.

Get ye eyes trained Meg!
