    I was reading an artice on yahoo today stating that movie companies are starting to outsource there special effects to India. So my question is, and anyone in the movie business I would like responses from you to, with the article stating that the cost of making the big special effects going down do you all see a time in the future where the special effects on direct to dvd ficks are on the same level as the big hollywood flicks?

    I'm going to be straight with you, I highly doubt that 1) Anyone who does special effects for Hollywood Video is going to be in AD and 2) even if they do they probably wouldn't bother to answer such a simple question.

    You want a answer? Go out to a video rental store and rent 1 recent hollywood action movie and 1 straight to dvd action movie and compare the two. If there really outsourcing that is.
