As reported by Deadline, Rodriguez - as per most of his projects - will write, direct, and produce the new feature-length film, which will be the fifth installment in the Spy Kids franchise.
Polygons. Polygons everywhere.
Consider this: in the recently released
Resident Evil 8, the virtual buttocks of fetish-tweaking vampire giantess Lady Dimitrescu contain more polygons than the entire original
Resident Evil game from 1996.
That shouldn’t be surprising. The evolution of gaming has always been driven by such technological advances. Each generation of hardware is more powerful than the last and can use smaller polygons in larger numbers to create more detailed visuals. There are obvious parallels here with movies, which have likewise evolved from silent black and white films shot on soundstages to 4K HDR movies with lavish CGI sets. It’s a familiar modern trajectory and one that assumes brighter, shinier, more, more, more is the true metric of creative progress.
