Walt Disney Pictures and Jerry Bruckheimer Films’ G-FORCE follows the adventures of one of the government’s most elite group of trained operatives: bold squad leader Darwin; weapons expert Blaster; martial arts pro Juarez; recon whiz Mooch; and information specialist Speckles. Together, they seek to bring the downfall of a spy ring supplying military secrets to the highest bidder. Directed by two-time Oscar®-winning visual effects master Hoyt Yeatman, G-FORCE takes audiences on a hilarious high-octane thrill ride, proving once and for all that size really doesn’t matter.

What makes this live-action film such a wonderful and unusual ride is that G-FORCE combines the best of Disney family comedy with the unmistakable stamp of Bruckheimer, evident from movies like the Pirates of the Caribbean trilogy to television franchises like C.S.I.: plenty of action, cutting-edge special effects, larger-than-life heroes and villains, superlative production values and, most of all, a great ride. And on top of that, G-FORCE is the first for the filmmaker in 3D. Jerry Bruckheimer has answered a few questions about the importance of 3D in G-FORCE.




Q : Why is it important for you to make this movie in 3D, and what’s the difference between 3D today, and the way it was years ago?

Jerry Bruckheimer : Well, I think the technology is so much better. You don’t get the kind of eye fatigue you used to get with the new technology. We’re doing things that no other movie has done before, as far as 3D goes. It’s so exciting that you can actually bring things out to an audience, using 3D, especially since this is a kid’s movie, so it’s great. They love it, they grab at it, they have a blast when they see it.

Q : What sold you on the idea?

Jerry Bruckheimer : James Cameron invited me over to his place and showed me what he was doing with 3D. He showed me a bunch of tests that he’d done, not for his movie, just tests of various scenes that he’d actually shot in 3D, and I thought they were superb. It was really exciting—it adds another experience for the audience. And that’s what we try to do. We try to draw in as many people as possible and show them new experiences. We actually didn’t shoot in 3D. Since all our animated sequences are done digitally, it’s easy to convert it to 3D, but the live actors were shot with conventional technology.

Q : Well, could you see something like a Pirates 4 or any of your future films being in 3D?

Jerry Bruckheimer : It’s possible. It’s all possible.
