"It was that night I discovered that most things you consider evil or wicked are simply lonely, and lacking in the social niceties." One of my personal favorite Tim Burton movies is Big Fish, the 2003 story of a man and his father and a fish. Among many other creatures. The legendary Stan Winston and his team at Stan Winston Studio were once again hired by Tim Burton to create a handful of special effects for Big Fish (we also posted their video on creating The Penguin for Burton's Batman Returns). As everyone knows, Winston is one of the best in the business, and his work is always exciting to see. The S.W. School of Character Arts website has posted another interesting making of look at their behind-the-scenes process, featuring many photos & videos of their creature creations. The video covers the werewolf, the lion, Helena Bonham Carter's Swamp Witch,...

The battle between A&e and rival network Reelz and production company Big Fish Entertainment over On Patrol: Live looks to be heading towards court after a judge dismissed the latter’s previous motion.
Katherine Polk Failla, a district judge in the U.S. District Court Southern District of New York has denied Big Fish’s motion to dismiss a case brought by the cable networks group over whether On Patrol: Live was a “clone” of Live Pd.

A&e sued Big Fish and Reelz in August 2022 and Big Fish hit back in December, calling the lawsuit “meritless”.
In the latest decision, Polk Failla wrote, “A wise man once observed,...
