That's right folks. Even though they've been in the business probably longer than anyone, Rango will be their first ever CG animated film. Yeah surprising. They're mostly famous for doing special effects for all those big budget movies. They've also done some shorts and most notably Clone Wars that was shown on Cartoon Network.
If you haven't known, ILM (Industrial Light and Magic) has been trying to do some full featured CG animation films for a couple of years now, but was never green lighted. Search the web, you'll notice that ILM has a test footage of Frankenstein. It was canned though probably due to the fact it was very realistic looking. Also, this other tid bit I never knew about. Where the Wild Things Are was supposed to be a CG film and ILM was to do it all. Fast forward today and we get Rango. From the looks of it looks really good, but alas we get another animals movie. Anyways, it looks promising from the trailer. Now Blur when are you guys making a CG film?
