He also didn’t seem to mind being part of the same speakers series that included Nick Griffin...
...think the use of CGI and 3-D will affect cinema? -Josh Coppenbarger, Normal, Ill. Obviously there's a milestone with Avatar in terms of the emotionality of CG characters that will have acceptance from here on. I think we're at an interesting stage where if we can imagine it, we can create it. At this point, it's down to storytelling and imagination...
