Greg & I have booked seats to see it this Sun (Sat your time) at Gold Class, with the recliner chairs, champagne and cheese-platter.

Now that's swank. Here's hoping we enjoy the movie.

I have a problem with CGI "Stunts" - from the trailers, it looks like the days of massive live-action sets are gone, and that's what used to give these type of movies the "Ooh, he's in danger" feeling... the actor (or stuntman) was dropping down inside a temple on a rope into a pit of (some very real) snakes, or facing being crushed between a truck and a dirt wall, or in a citadel with deadly flesh-eating rats about to be BBQed, and mostly, they were doing it for real, albeit safely, but for real. (Yes, I know there was a bit more CGI in Last Crusade, and I hated that CGI as well...)

Now, thanks to CGI, people can drive alongside the edge of cliffs, swing from massive heights etc, without the slightest risk of danger, and unfortunately, without the slightest hint of audience thrill either (cos we know it's all just CGI)

I'll see if I think different tomorrow afternoon.
