the spectacle of new technologies

DSTV is wonderful, just the other day i found myself watching two very different films from two different eras of movie making and was amazed at the differrence new techonlogy has made in these productions. from tha classicall the first KING KONG (1933) to KING KONG (2005) one gets to contrast the realites that have evolved with in terms of effects . Looking at the 1933 version of king kong now makes it look ridiculoulsy unreal you can tell theat gorrilla was nowqhere near tha actors in the moviebut the latest edition has got thishuge sense of realism in it its spectacular. one gets to see the facial expressions of the gorrilla as it fights to protect the leading lady from the dinasour.What also appears to be more real than in the previous film is the entangling of the gorrilla in the roots it also just make the fisrt version of the movie seem so dull. thesame goes for all the classical remakes , like SUPERMAN, as well as the trilogies such as james bond , the better the technologies the better the effects and the spectacular the film is .
