| The lovely Nicola Sturgeon about to take revenge on her critics before she morphs into Rebecca Brooks thanks to the magic of CGI / PMS. Meanwhile Wee Eck looks after their fearsome offspring while the lassie from Capercaillie sings a sweet Scottish folk lament about dead kittens, the Clearances and serial poverty. A typical Scottish scene that tourists will expect to see upon alighting at Glasgow Airport. Thanks to Tommy Mackay for the pic. |
Brave: Will American tourists be
inspired to visit Scotland when they see a well rendered but clearly
unreal cartoon version who's central character appears to be an
exaggerated replica of Rebecca Brooks? Perhaps they will, in the same
way I've always wanted to visit Bedrock to call upon Fred Flintstone,
Springfield to share a beer and some wise cracks with Homer and of
course Gotham City to attend a cocktail party hosted by Bruce Wayne.
Such is the power of illusion and fantasy created by the silvery
trails of cinema legend, mind bending drugs and artistic visual fantasy. People (that's you and me) can't resist the urge to
explore these brave new virtual worlds presented so faithfully and convincingly via high end artists and computer generated graphics, it's all just like the real
thing, only better, it's not real.
