pixar perfect

on weekend went to see pixar exhibition at the australian centre for the moving image. very wow. (all the stuff on loan from the barbican gallery apparently. thanks england.) "incredibles" is the only pixar film i like. didn't matter. show was terrific. highlights include a stunning 11 minute digital super widescreen 3d movie (this isn't like those naff warhol 3d movies from the 60s requiring silly glasses. very virtualistic. at one point the camera starts racing through the jungle and over the water. it was only when i heard the splashy pitter-patter that i realised we were reliving dash's running across the water sequence from "the incredibles", but this time from dash's point of view. amazing stuff.) also great to see lots of edna e mode mock-ups and large clay heads of mr huph, who is my second favourite "incredibles" star. only disappointment was no sign of syndrome, the petulant child who becomes the ultimate bad guy.
