DIGITAL FRONTIERS, EPISODE SIX: "Cars" (2003, Dir: John Lasseter)

PIXAR TIME BABY! Ellis and Corbin talk about 'Cars,' a movie about a civilization of Cars. Why are the Cars alive? What build the world they live in? How do they reproduce? Then, after they talk about the important stuff, they talk about Pixar, their history and centrality to digital cinema as a practice, the Pixar-to-SFX pipeline, their storytelling technique, and the nostalgia for modernity that lives in this particular movie. Good Episode! Corbin reccomends a new video game, available in your video game e-store of choice. Matt reccomends this. Friday's episode will be about SILL LIFE, a wonderful movie by friend of the program Jia Zhangke, a director I've never said anything bad about. Watch it here.
