Just saw a silly ITT/Devry/whatever commercial, showing some CGI of a jet flying. I think they were hawking their "game developer" degree program. As I switched off the TV and walked away, I thought to myself - what a slow animation sequence, nobody flies that slow in a game. As I was walking up the stairs I passed my cat Eva perched by the railing. "Eva would never fly so slowly." Kinda reminded me of that movie where the US Air Force was training chimps to fly jets. I wonder what it would be like if you trained cats to fly jets. Ultra fast reflexes, anyway. You could synch the guns to their purr frequency. Can you imagine trying to make a movie about this, trying to train cats to sit in a cockpit and work controls. I guess that would all be CGI, otherwise you'd go insane.
