  • Isn’t the whole point of (real) IMAX movies to be captured on analog IMAX cameras and projected on analog film?

    There are less than 100 IMAX 15/70 analog projectors in the world right now. The majority of IMAX releases are now digital. Plenty of movies that were never filmed for IMAX to begin with are released in IMAX. You still get a bigger image and slightly louder sound, even if it doesn’t make artistic sense.

    And hey, if it means getting more 2D animation in theaters, I’m all for it.















  • As a kid, I was obsessed with the Captain Underpants book series, so you could imagine my excitement when Captain Underpants: The First Epic Movie came out 7 years ago(!). “Dog Man” takes place in the Captain Underpants universe (it’s one of the comics that George and Harold create), though as I’ve gotten older I haven’t been able to keep up with the Dog Man books.

    Long story short, if this is anything like Captain Underpants, I’ll be first in line to see this.







  • Krusty: So he’s proactive, huh?

    Network Executive Lady: Oh, God, yes. We’re talking about a totally outrageous paradigm.

    Writer: Excuse me, but “proactive” and “paradigm”? Aren’t these just buzzwords that dumb people use to sound important? Not that I’m accusing you of anything like that… [pause] …I’m fired, aren’t I?

    Roger Meyers, Jr.: Oh, yes. [gets up to leave] The rest of you writers start thinking up a name for this funky dog - I don’t know, something along the lines of, say, “Poochie”, only more proactive!

    Krusty: Yeah!
