Shameful Dreams

Tags: ,

My girlfriend watched Dreamgirls yesterday. I’ve never seen it, but I was sleeping when she started it, so I planned on watching the full film at a later time. I did, however, catch the credits at the end of the film and it blew my mind how shameless Dreamworks and the creators of this film actually are. The film technically isn’t even over and it’s already campaigning for an Oscar!

Actors’ names are followed by a quick montage of some of their best moments.

Remember how good she was? Allow us to remind you!

Let us show you how we first drew everything, colored it, then made it into the final product! That’s good design!

Notice the border moving from take to take; see, we had good editing, too!

May I also point out that this is often the technique used during the Oscarcast when presenting the nominees for Best Editing? Looks like Dreamworks is saying, “We’ve already done the hard work for you. Just cut and paste!”

Hey, check out all of these famous faces that we were skilled enough to book!

It goes on, but I can barely stomach how much they’re willing to flaunt themselves. Y’know, it only makes it that much more sweeter that Dreamgirls was snubbed for Best Picture.
