They needed one.<br /><br />But to say "This was the creative and budgetary route the Suits felt was best" is hard to believe, as motion capture is as expensive, and more often more expensive, than a traditionally shot film with visual effects added. The mix certainly suits the Burton mold better.<br /><br />Personally, I thought the film was unimaginative, ugly, and disjointed. The worst of Burton and masturbatory visual effects artists combined.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5244647450237014911.post-66011692769485514492010-03-17T20:21:12.823-07:002010-03-17T20:21:12.823-07:00Hunter, why the HELL don't the parks have a Ma...Hunter, why the HELL don't the parks have a Mary Poppins attraction?
