just a thought, as Im a bit of a film buff but this thing didnt look familiar!


The green creature with the tentacles on its head is from Hellboy:
http://www.tippett.com/
There is a Flash filmstrip that runs along the top of the homepage. Clicking on the cloverfield grumpy pants wannabe brings you this:

"Hellboy. Menacing "Sammael" monsters from hell, as well as other creatures of the "deep" were created by Tippett Studio's Blair Clark and his team for director Guillermo del Toro's action film based on Mike Mignola's popular comic. Starring Ron Perlman and John Hurt. Produced by Mike Richardson, Lloyd Levin, and Lawrence Gordon. Distributed by Revolution Studios, 2004."

Tippett was one of the masterminds behind the dinosaurs in Jurassic Park, together with Dennis Muren, Stan Winston and Michael Lantieri.

Phil Tippett was mostly into stop-motion animation to begin with, as they were doing the dinos that way. But when Dennis Muren at ILM figured that they could do 'em CGI, Tippett was kinda out of a job at first. But then he built a puppet of a dinosaur, connected to a computer that let him pose the puppet in all kinds of ways, which the computer would then mimic in the form of a CGI dino.
All this is on the BTS of Jurassic Park dvd if you wanna watch it...

I have that DVD! As a matter of fact, it's my favorite childhood movie next to Hook. Whoever did the sound transfer to DVD should be shot, though. Absolutely no bass on that thing.

Back to the subject, however, I wouldn't be surprised if ILM was involved in this film. As a matter of fact, they better be, because if they're not, I won't see this movie.

Really? My copy has excellent sound! I guess they are different in between countries and regional coding....

Well, it looks like it's Tippett, after seeing the quote on the first page of this thread. But ILM did the effects for MI:3 i think? I guess we will have to wait and see...

BTW, what did you guys think of the effects in "The Host"? Theyre made by WETA (LOTR, King Kong, Frighteners). It's a good company, but the effects in the host wasn't at all as impressing as I had expected....
