One of the best things about hot days in the summertime is you get to sit around watching movies all day. ScienCentral is offering exclusive footage and interviews from the upcoming IMAX 3D production "Under the Sea 3D" featuring cinematography's sweethearts Michelle and Howard Hall talking about what it's like to work in 50 feet of water with a 1200 lb. camera that shoots 3 minutes of film.
Howard and Michelle Hall are to me what Jacques Cousteau is to the Natural Patriot. They improved on his tradition, but don't necessarily appear to be having quite as much fun, you know, with the wine cellar aboard the Calypso, the beanies, etc.

I can't wait for this movie!
I've also been waiting for them to update their webisodes on the hyper-slick IMAX movie site.
That camera looks like two people could fit inside it, doesn't it?
Oh, the Hall's have shot so much awesome footage. But I still like Jacques too!
