I fully agree with you here, CGI doesn't cause problems if its use is the result from an idea... sometimes though the idea is basically the result from having access to CGI, and that's usually when it goes downhill.robisindy said:I don't know, I don't feel like my thoughts are really being expressed very well in my writing, but I hope you can see what I mean.
DocWhiskey said:Haha. KOTCS's last scene is the wedding, Indy 5's last scene is the funeral. Circle of life I guess.
but seriously, I really don't want Indy to die in the series for 2 reasons:
1. It wouldn't be right. It would be like killing James Bond or Luke Skywalker.
2. I at least want to pretend the YIJC is canon.

One of my favorite films is still "Forrest Gump", and it's a good example of how to use visual effects: Most of them can't be seen. A sky-replacement here, a set-extension there, but almost always invisible and just there to support the story. Coming up with action-sequences that can only be realized with CGI or on a blue-screen stage is soooo lazy. Coming up with an action scene that's shot on a real set or a location, (and which is possible supported by a painted out rig or a set-extension) is ingenious.
I like it how Ford mentioned that today's action-scenes can be much more easily done by the actors' themselves, because CGI can be utilized to remove any safety rigging or harnesses from the shots, because that's what I think is the best use for digital effects today.
Nah. Including this one, we've got, at least, 42 threads on Indy V. I say merge most of them into a GIGANTIC one.Goonie said:I wonder if it's time to open up an Indy V section on this board.

emtiem said:I think we should tidy it all into a nice Indiana Jones thread. That'd make all this Indiana Jones stuff easier to find.
Stoo said:Just in case you guys (emtiem & Crack) are poking fun at my suggestion in a roll-your-eyes-kind-of-way, let me state that I was just being facetious. (Although, there are definitely multiple threads on the same, specific aspect of a "would be" 5th film.)
No problem, emtiem. (P.S. Whenever I see your username, it makes me think of this: MTM logo...Mary Tyler Moore)emtiem said:Just a friendly ribbing Stoo; don't take anything by it

Would that be you? It's a hopeless battle (akin to fighting a tidal wave) and I was just joking around.Finn said:Now, think really hard... out of all the moderators on this Earth, think of the one who could be bats enough to actually make it into reality. Then check if he looks after this forum or not.
