If they can make the squid face guy in "Pirates" look good...

I like man in suit thing. To cgi him totally would be bad seeing as then ben would always have this akward removal from people vibe to him.

That's very true, and I think there were many flaws in the first suit that, if they had enough time, they could have improved with better design or CGI fixes, but on the schedule they were running, they pretty much had to plow through with what they had. Since it was the first time they did it, they really didn't know how it would work until they started shooting, and then it was too late to do anything other than minor fixes.

Now they have a lot more time to work on those things and make improvements before shooting starts next month.

Well then I say in a style reminiscent of Stan Lee of the 60's....GET THEE WITH IT, FOX!

<okay,...everyone let out a collective sigh because I'm rehashing old stuff>

Just got back from Pirates and have to say I couldn't help but thinking the entire movie, -if they can make the squid face guy in Pirates look so great (and he appears to be CGI in every frame all while utilizing a real actor too) - then why can't they do the same with Thing? This quid guy even had the round Banjamin Grim blue eyes. Heck,..every sea villain in the movie seemed to be CGI. I can see them having Chiklis with a bit of CGI in each frame to make him into what is impossible to do with only makeup. Why can't this be done? No,...more importantly,...why hasn't someone done this?!

People jump on me all you want. They can really fix this next movie. CGI Silver Surfer should be fine. Fantasti-car will be great. But fix The Thing too.

I'm going to keep stating and restating and keeping this in people's (and hopefully someone in charge) minds until I hear a change will be made for the better.

I'm convinced Story isn't the problem....it's execs at Fox.

At last, actually found someone with a worse short term memory than I.
Squid face guy? Considering he is the main villian during the whole movie, the plot is about finding his heart.. and his name "Davy Jones" is said like 20-30 times during the movie... well..one would think people would remember it lol
