Is that what you call what he is doing now adays? More like Computer game graphics.
I took a look at the DVD of A New Hope the other night and all the new effects he has put in were unnecessary. Ruined what used to be one of my favorite movies.

They're no "brokeback" but they can be damn entertaining. Originally Posted by riley_dude

Can we please not go down this tired path of bitching about the prequels and whining about how Lucas is a talentless hack? It's been done a few times before. If you have no interest in this article or subject matter, there are dozens of other threads. Please spare this one.His movies nowadays are like Video games though so not much has changed in 10 years.
Great article. Thanks for the heads up digi.

I think within the next few years the entire movie industry will begin its full-scale switch to digital filmmaking.
There are a couple of reasons for this:
1. You don't need the waste time processing film so everyone has to wait for a "daily rush" session at the end of the day to see just what was filmed. Instead, with digital filmmaking you can see the results as soon as you rewind the media where you stored the digital data.
2. Adding in special effects--especially CGI-generated effects--is very easy to do.
3. Editing is easily done with digital media.
4. The cost of high-definition digital movie cameras are dropping rapidly. Indeed, many studios are now buying Sony and Panasonic digital cameras capable of recording 1920x1080 resolution instead of renting film cameras from Panavision or Arriflex; already, we're starting to see digital movie cameras with twice the resolution starting to come into service.
5. The cost of high-definition theatrical digital projectors will drop rapidly, especially when the expensive banks of hard drive storage are replaced by new optical media such as holographic versatile disc, which can store as much as one terabyte on a single disc, more than enough to store a high-definition 1920x1080 movie with very little data compression needed.
6. With the movie in full digital format, the conversion to a digital format for home video is very easy to do, whether it's DVD, HD-DVD or Blu-Ray formats.
