feeling listless

Film Robert Roderiguez has dumped celluloid as a medium and has made Spy Kids 3D and Once Upon A Time In Mexico on high definition digital tape. Apparently the look is stunning; I just hope that nothing lost with the conversion to film for projection. Having seen Attack of the Clones in Digital Projection then in Analogue, I found the picture to be a bit puffy around the edges, and blured in other places. But the director doesn't seem to see any issues:

"For all his speed, Rodriguez swears the high-definition product is better than anything he could have produced on film. For Mexico, he says, he could never have caught every scar and pockmark of actor Danny Trejo, captured the harsh Mexican landscape with such detail you could see wet paint glistening on buildings, or zoomed instantly from across the room to an eyeball shot of actor Johnny Depp, without using high-def digital tape.

I'm thinking the DVD will look very, very good indeed.
