I will profess my love for Pixar again :D Haha if only I could work on one small part of one of their productions… I could die happy. The details, the subtleties, the social commentary… Pixar never fails to inspire me, and make me wish I’d studied 3D animation in school (and wish I had the money to do so). :T

Kung Fu Panda

(No spoilers, don’t worry) I’d say this is one of my most favorite movies by DreamWorks Animations of all time. The story, jokes and animation were all great. I love the style of the 2D images and all the textures. And the 3D segments were really great too… all that fur rendering and the scenery looked so awesome (prepare for awesomeness!)… I just wanted to hug Po throughout the movie :P

The graphics for this movie were more than AMAZING, especially when watching it in 3D. WELL WORTH the added cost to watch it in 3D. While the story was alright, experiencing the movie in 3D, wondering when something was going to fly out at you and therefore staying tense and attuned throughout it all made the movie better.

I’ve loved 3D graphics ever since they first made their appearance in movies. Makes me wonder if I should just pursue a career making this stuff every time I watch a movie like this. :T
