Post by GONNAFISTYA »

S'okay action movie but top-notch visuals...especially Scarlett Johansson. :drool:

Here's some of how ILM does its movie magic:

Pretty impressive. Was reading a book last night that described the process of a Turing machine for doing simple processes on blocks of data. I tried one out manually, a Turing machine that adds 1 to a number. So I fed it codified binary for the number 6, the machine went through it's various logic states then spit out codified binary for the number 7. Anyway, that took me ten minutes with pen & paper.

Makes you appreciate the sheer mind-fuck amount of number crunching going on in CGI shit like this and how god damn fast the CPUs of today are.

Yes indeed. I knew there was CGI but didn't appreciate how much and to the detail. Thanks for the topic GONNAFISTYA.

Man, looks like 90% of that movie is CGI. Not saying it's a bad thing, you just don't realize it when seeing it.
