With All The Hype That Computer Graphics Has Been Getting, Everybody Thinks There's Nothing Better Than Cgi, But I Do Get A Lot Of Fan Mail Saying They Prefer Our Films To Anything With Cgi In It.

Medusa Was Fascinating To Work With Because I Gave Her A Snake's Body So That She Could Pull Herself With Her Hands Which Gave Her A Very Creepy Aura. I Didn't Want To Animate Cosmic Gowns. Most Medusas You See In The Classics Have Flowing Robes Which Would Be Mad To Even Try To Animate.
