BORN TODAY November 8th 1847 in Clontarf, Dublin, Republic of #Ireland… we mark the BIRTHDAY of #BRAMSTOKER, creator of #Dracula and a hundred thousand nightmares! #HappyBirthday, Mr Stoker!!!
BACK IN 2016, for some it was an act too hard to accept. #PeterCushing's
Grand Moff Tarkin featured nearly 20 years since his passing, kind of
live and kicking courtesy of mega bucks CGI, presented on the big screen
in the #StarWars
epic, Rogue One. In a cinematic series where the footing is firmly
rooted on a fantasy and other worldly canvas, those who wanted to
embrace could. This week #Hollywood has announced the arrival of another CGI resurrection, in #JamesDean. Dean will be recreated in an action drama entitled #FindingJack
through a mixture of old footage and computer-generated creations
projected over stand-ins, as a secondary character called Rogan. The
producer Anton Ernst said he will try to keep Dean's “legacy firmly
intact”.
AND AS IN the case of Peter Cushing, the 'estate' or family are on
board. “We feel very honoured that his family supports us,” he said.
“The family views this as his fourth movie, a movie he never got to
make. We do not intend to let his fans down.” says Antin Ernst. Zelda
Williams, daughter of the late actor and comedian #RobinWilliams, accused the producers of “puppeteering the dead” while #LordoftheRings actor #ElijahWood tweeted a simple “NOPE” in response to the news, while #Avengers star #ChrisEvans wrote: “This is awful... the complete lack of understanding here is shameful.”
OVER AT THE FACEBOOK PCASUK FAN PAGE we are asking what your opinion on this?! . .. Should the Cushing Tarkin CGI
appearance be seen as an interesting 'one-off' and a good try, totally
necessary to help embellish and tell the story of Rogue One . . Is this
a CGI trick too far, bringing James Dean, once more to the big screen??
