Stargate...

[Red Eye]

<div style='font: 14pt Draconwick, Modern; text-align: left; '>Good movie. Some was predictable and some wasn't at all. The graphics were good (for the time) and the plot was unique (for the time). Some was corney, but it was mostly good acting and solid directing. If you are into Sci-Fi action rent it. If not, don't.</div>

[G-man Joe]

<div style='font: 11pt "comic sans MS", Modern; text-align: left; '>That guy who acted as the Alien/god.....if you want to know what Ishamael looks like, he's a dead ringer.</div>

[Kupek]

<div style='font: 10pt Verdana, Tahoma, Modern; text-align: left; padding: 0% 10% 0% 10%; '>I loved it when it first came out. Now I can't help but notice how cheesy it is. The best part of the movies is the beginning, up until they go through the Stargate. Even now that's still damned cool.</div>

[Ishamael]

<div style='font: 12pt Modern; text-align: left; '>I thought it was pretty decent...it ain't the next Star Wars or anything, but it was decent. You're right, it's probably more for genre fans (though I think anyone can enjoy this one)...</div>

[Ishamael]

<div style='font: 12pt Modern; text-align: left; '>heheh...You're a dead ringer for Chris Tucker's character in 5th Element...</div>

[Gentz]

<div style='font: 9pt arial, Modern; text-align: left; '>Red Eye, for fuck's sake, movies don't have graphics!</div>

[G-man Joe]

<div style='font: 11pt "comic sans MS", Modern; text-align: left; '>Toy Story did. *ducks* I just got slapped in the head by upek for being a smart ass. I'm ready for any head slapping now!</div>

[Red Eye]

<div style='font: 14pt Draconwick, Modern; text-align: left; '>With a computer! If it's computer generated it is graphics.</div>

[G-man Joe]

<div style='font: 11pt "comic sans MS", Modern; text-align: left; '>We kalls dem things, Special Effects or f/x for short.</div>

[Red Eye]

<div style='font: 14pt Draconwick, Modern; text-align: left; '>graphics is easier and shorter to type for me... :p</div>

[Torgo]

<div style='font: 9pt Arial, Modern; text-align: left; '>*shudder*...</div>

[G-man Joe]

<div style='font: 11pt "comic sans MS", Modern; text-align: left; '>Shaddap! I think I look sexy in an orange suit with platinum hair!</div>

[Gentz]

<div style='font: 9pt arial, Modern; text-align: left; '>That wasn't graphics, it was animation</div>

[Lee S.]

<div style='font: 9pt arial, Modern; text-align: justify; '>Yeah, I hear Stargate was running at a smooth 80 fps, without a hint of slowdown during the whole film. Very powerful stuff.</div>

[Gentz]

<div style='font: 9pt arial, Modern; text-align: left; '>No, if it's a video game it's graphics, if it's anything else it...isn't graphics</div>

[G-man Joe]

<div style='font: 11pt "comic sans MS", Modern; text-align: left; '>COMPUTER animation! There's a difference.</div>

[Red Eye]

<div style='font: 14pt Draconwick, Modern; text-align: left; '>So computer generated images aren't graphics?</div>

[SineSwiper]

<div style='font: 11pt "EngraversGothic BT", "Copperplate Gothic Light", Modern; text-align: left; '>No, they are CGIs.</div>

[SineSwiper]

<div style='font: 11pt "EngraversGothic BT", "Copperplate Gothic Light", Modern; text-align: left; '>What...you can't type SFX?</div>

[SineSwiper]

<div style='font: 11pt "EngraversGothic BT", "Copperplate Gothic Light", Modern; text-align: left; '>Yeah, during the Stargate water scenes, I thought it would have slowed down, but they must have powerful machines behind those projectors.</div>

[Kupek]

<div style='font: 10pt Verdana, Tahoma, Modern; text-align: left; padding: 0% 10% 0% 10%; '>Graphics is a term specificaly used for videogames/PC games. (It's also used in the publishing world, but it has a slightly different meaning.)</div>

[Gentz]

<div style='font: 9pt arial, Modern; text-align: left; '>There's a difference in that one is digital where the other is analogue...neither one is referred to as graphics though, unless it's a video game</div>

[Gentz]

<div style='font: 9pt arial, Modern; text-align: left; '>Seriously! No pop-up either! And they couldn't of had more than a 32-bit processor back then!</div>

[Oracle]

<div style='font: bold 12pt "Comic Sans MS", Modern; text-align: left; '>1. A work of graphic art.
2. A pictorial device used for illustration, as in a lecture.
3. A graphic display generated by a computer or an imaging device.

HUH!?! Take note at number 3, now shut up and leave Red Eye alone.</div>

[New and Improved Zeus]

<div style='font: 10pt "Arial bold", Modern; text-align: left; '>I believe the proper term is "special effects". "Graphics" tend to refer to interactive entertainment nowadays</div>

[Gentz]

<div style='font: 9pt arial, Modern; text-align: left; '>Definitions are fine and good...but I want you to find one (just one!) example of someone referring to the visual effects in a motion picture as "graphics"</div>
