...jerk. (In both accent and attitude he's a little like Survivor's Richard Hatch.) His brilliant, arrogant lead is buffered by a likable confidant (Robert Sean Leonard) and three young doctors (Omar Epps, Jennifer Morrison and Jesse Spencer) who hold patients' hands for him. The show also sports CGI effects that, CSI-style, bring us nose-to-cell with platelets and parasites. But unlike CSI, House is more interested in ideas than technology: Is the human touch overrated? Are concepts like "death with dignity" just feel-good lies? Funny, probing and unsentimental, House may shock the systems of viewers...
Come Oscar time, nominations for The Incredibles, Disney and Pixar’s latest foray into the CGI world which they created, will likely be relegated to a single category: “Best Animated Feature.” More than the actors or the creative team, the film’s computer-generated content will be the draw for the vast majority of its young audience. No matter how photorealistic the images, how human the voices, for most viewers the movie will primarily be seen as pixels on the screen. But not for Brad Bird...

Like Casshern, virtually every frame in Devilman blends live action and computer graphics. Judging by segments that have been completed, Devilman will be a lush, Gothic-flavored...
...POPEYE is not on 'roids. The cartoon strongman and his hulking nemesis BLUTO have been buffed up by 3-D CGI for a Fox TV special due next fall. Though the movie celebrates the sailor's 75th anniversary, he has been well preserved by a life of "no coffee, a lot of spinach and that sea air," says Mad About You's Paul Reiser, who is co-writer and producer. In Popeye's Voyage: The Search for Pappy, the updated Popeye will hunt for his dad and confront relationship issues. For example, Reiser asks, "with a woman in his life...
