This isn't your father's Tron.

Tron Legacy (Walt Disney Pictures, Dec. 17)
The original Tron was a trailblazer in digital effects. Digital Domain has the challenge of capturing the spirit of the original, while pushing the visual effects to a new realm. The alternative world of the computer gives them ample opportunity to show off their chops. But should we have any doubt? We're seen the visual effects test and were wowed by that.

Are you on Team Edward or Team Jacob?

The Twilight Saga: Eclipse (Summit Ent., June 30)
This time around Team Edward and Team Jacob must align forces to combat vamp Victoria and her bloodsucking brood in order to protect Bella from harm. Expect more vampire on werewolf violence, as well as a health dose of melodrama. Tippett Studio is back handling the werewolves and Image Engine signs on for the bulk of the other vfx.

Rick DeMott is the director of content for Animation World Network, VFXWorld and AWNtv. Additionally, he's the creator of the movie review site, Rick's Flicks Picks, which was recently named one of the 100 best movie blogs by The Daily Reviewer. He has written for TV series, such as Discovery Kids' Growing Up Creepie and Cartoon Network's Pet Alien, the animation history book Animation Art, and the humor, absurdist and surrealist website Unloosen. Previously, he held various production and management positions in the entertainment industry.

Bill Desowitz is senior editor of
AWN and VFXWorld.

Is Framestore not mentioned? Is there a particular reason for this?

Framestore (not verified) | Mon, 01/11/2010 - 11:36 | Permalink

Your article demonstrates very poor research when three of the films mentioned have significant contributions by Framestore.
I am currently working on one of the films mentioned at Framestore, and find the lack of a mention insulting.
It also places a question mark over the reliability of AWN as an accurate source of information.

Framestore have contributed/will contribute a considerable amount of work to Prince of Persia, Clash of the Titans and Potter.

Sort it out.

Questionable standard of research for this article if you've failed to credit Framestore for its roles in Potter, Clash of the Titans and Princeof Persia...

Why is Framestore not mentioned for Prince of Persia, Clash of the Titans and Potter?
