The Curious Case Of Visual Effects Awesomeness
Posted by Bradley under Movies

If you are as mesmerized as much as I am when it comes to visual effects compositing then you are doing yourself a favor by checking out The Science Behind The Curious Case of Benjamin Button.
The website details the visual effects that were used in the movie.
Many of which you probably never even noticed.

Slumdog Millionaire Gets Top Honor From The Kansas City Film Critics Circle
Posted by Bradley under Entertainment, Movies, Personal

Slumdog Millionaire received the Best Film of 2008 honor from the Kansas City Film Critics Circle this past Sunday.
Slumdog tells the tale of an orphaned Indian teen who is accused of cheating when he wins the Hindi version of Who Wants to be A Millionaire.
And is brilliantly directed by Danny Boyle of Trainspotting and 28 Days Later fame.
I wholeheartedly agree with the Film Critics Circle and truly feel this movie is deserving of a little gold man for Best Picture.
Let’s hope the Academy agrees.
If you haven’t seen it yet it comes with my highest recommendation.
Hit up the link for the rest of the winners.
