I am going to start off with an apology. I realise that I have not posted a single entry this month. This is partly to do with the fact that I have not had much to talk about, and partly to do with the fact that MY COMPUTER HAS BROKEN AND I AM HAVING TO USE MY NAN’S LAPTOP.Anyway, let’s talk about the title of this entry. I have generally only really accepted CGI films before when they were either a. made as CGI and not based on anything, or b. based on something that was computer-generated in the first place, such as Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children and, to be perfectly honest, I would rather the a-type films were good old-fashioned cartoons instead. So, you can imagine my horror when I discovered that a film of Alvin and the Chipmunks is to be brought out, with, yes, you guessed it, computer-generated chipmunks. I am quite happy to admit that Alvin and the Chipmunks will be added to my list of films not to watch, along with the TMNT film which was also, surprise surprise, computer generated. I want the old days back.
Keeping to the theme of films, yesterday I watched Un Long Dimanche de Fiançailles for the first time, and I was not disappointed. I love Audrey Tautou! I love Jeunet! that is all.
