Comments on: Robert Zemeckis to Remake Beatles’ ‘Yellow Submarine’ in 3-D Motion Capture https://staging2.theplaylist.net/robert-zemeckis-to-remake-beatles-20090819/ Tue, 10 Nov 2020 06:01:29 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.7.5 By: rodrigoperez https://staging2.theplaylist.net/robert-zemeckis-to-remake-beatles-20090819/#comment-9951 Thu, 20 Aug 2009 04:13:05 +0000 http://theplaylist.wpengine.com/?p=6500#comment-9951 I should have — and still might — done a piece on recent Zemeckis thoughts (from ComicCon? i'll have to double check), where he basically said, "screw real actors and sets and all that. Why would i bother when I can control everything I want with animation, mo-cap and 3D."

I found the comments, really vile and inhuman. And agreed, all those trailers really, really turn me off his films. I've never seen Beowulf and I could be wrong, but just the sight of it really turns me off.

It looks like a lame Final Fantasy film that that gay gauzy Elvin look which drives me nuts.

Maybe i'll dig up those quotes to do a response piece.

I haven't even seen Polar of Beowulf, but the trailers to those and Carol were enough for me.

But as far as casting goes…Jim Carrey as Jeremy the Nowhere Man.

Not that this has anything to do with this piece, but i just had to say it somewhere.

Nice job as usually Olly.
