  Sort of noticed this, all i did during this film was lmao at the horrible proportions. By far the best bit of this terrible conversion of a great book. Blade runner did it so much better

  Speilburg probably digitized all the componets ofthe film. Then any part can be put into any frame (scene). Actors can be placed in scenes digitally, then the voices posted later. this has been done with standard optical methods for years. you have to remember that the latest Star Wars film and this one are all digital, so anything can be simply made up, except for good writing, characters, reason to watch etc....

  They had physical interaction in those scenes. Yes MVS's head and hands looked giant compared to Cruise but MVS is a very very big guy and Cruise is a very very little guy. It's also possible that SS played with the angles to make MVS look more imposing and menacing.

    TC isn't a good enough actor to fake personal interaction to that extent.

  because the entire movie was "fake." Fake plot, acting, action, etc. Re-see "Jaws" or "Raiders..." to see how far Spielberg has fallen in the action/adventure genre.

  The idea of Max Von Sydow and Tom Cruise not acting in the same scenes is troubling, especially if it's noticeable to an observant viewer. Problems with the plot (i.e., trying to cover-up illogic with action or forced tension) and continuity flaws are more distressing in my estimation. The concept addressed in Minority Report is challenging; unfortunately, Steven Spielberg has a habit of sloppiness that rears it's ugly head at the most inopportune moments.

    Speilburg thinks he can move the audience through the story by jerking characters out of parameters, special effects, having the story line change directions and go unjustified places etc. When the little monster destroys the other version of himself in AI, he went about two miles out of character. Then the Doc comes back and does not notice????

    Too Rich for too long to have any connection with us pooh folks...
