1)The Hobbit: There and Back Again
2)The Hobbit: An/The Unexpected Journey
3)The Amazing Spider-Man
4)Underworld:New dawn
5)Ridley Scott's Prometheus
6)Jack the Giant Killer
7)Wrath OF The Titans
and now 8)Life OF Pi

Way to go maaaan!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Book is great , my girlfriend is going to be waiting to see this and see if it lives up to the book, hopefully it wont disappoint.
 
yeah i read that Philip,now even i am a bit confused,some sites are saying epic and some sites are claiming other stuff, anyway if they would have shot on 3d thay would have gone with epic,but as they are again going with the post conversion process,they are shooting on film,it's ok i am not feeling bad, i would have felt bad if they had chosen some other digital camera over epic, well some thing like ALEXA he he he
 
mmm...Life of Pi, Still not quite sure how they will visualise this story - will be interesting, Particularly what kind of audience they seek for it. Not sure that the US distribution will know exactly what to do with it. Be great to see, if it is done well. Its a risk asset but has a really nice philosophy.

Without taking anything away from RED's accomplishments, this is not correct.

Principle Photography for "Life of Pi" is pretty close to complete, and the movie was shot with Pace 3D rigs and the Arri Alexa. This is easily verifiable with a 20-second google search.

Plus, a good friend of mine is the lead Stereographer.

Best,

Saw this and kinda laughed... They'd been in india for a while filming before spiderman announced they were filming on epics...

Sorry Nathan but the filming began on jan 2011 not before spider-man which began on december 6th. Plus Irrfan khan who plays the adult pi in the movie himself told in a recent interview that the movie is being shot on 3d with small hand held red epic cameras. Don't know i am a bit confused again......
 
Is it possible that because he is starring in both Spider-man and Life of Pi he got confused with the 3d and red epic alexa aspect? possible............
 
See the link it has the full interview

I understand that's what the interview says. It just isn't true. :)

Here's a link from Dattner Dispoto - the firm that represents Claudio Miranda, the DP of "Life of Pi." Search for Life of Pi and read the credits behind it.

Again - not to take anything away from RED and their accomplishments. But this particular movie was not shot on RED. : )

Best,
