something like the tiger in life of pi or even more realistic? well, i think something like the tiger and that as whole game where everything is only computer graphics will probably take much longer as ten years.

off topic: Is life of pi any good? It did win a few awards, but what do you personally think?

Great movie Ang Lee's second best movie the best is still Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon but Life of Pi is almost as good.
