I agree 100% with Tiptup. When watching the new "Kingdom of Heaven" DVD (which is excellent) Ridley Scott, to this day, believes that if there is anyway possible to create a scene NOT using CGI, then it should be done that way. Yet good old George feels the need to CGI a floor. A fucking floor for crying out loud.


That was an advice given to him by Douglas Trumbull on the shooting of Blade runner; Scott wanted to use SFX for a scene but Trumbull conviced him to do it "real" because real stuff always looks better on screen, just like the interior of the eggs in Alien ; no animatronics, no latex make ups just cows and porks guts!
