Also ,given his close relationship with George Lucas I was surprised about his fondness for film rather than digital film-making. Maybe this means that Indiana Jones 4 will be good with him at the helm and hopefully digital editing, characters, etc used sparingly.<BR/>I really loved Jurassic Park - I remember seeing it at the cinema - the venue where I saw it had just installed dts sound specifically for this film - it was extremely loud and it really did have the audience on the edge of their seat. Also enjoyed AI although didn't get much acclaim.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
