Dans la serie studios qui vont mal, pour ceux qui n'ont pas suivi :

Walt Disney Studios on Friday pulled the plug on ImageMovers Digital, the motion-capture company run by Robert Zemeckis, above right, the latest in a string of cost-cutting moves. ImageMovers Digital, which is based near San Francisco and employs 450 people, will slowly wind down production during the next few months. Mr. Zemeckis’s “Christmas Carol” was a big disappointment for Disney, and despite his pioneering work in motion-capture technology, he has been leapfrogged in the genre by James Cameron and “Avatar.” But Disney said that two extensive movie projects from Mr. Zemeckis, the comedy “Mars Needs Moms!” and a remake of “Yellow Submarine,” would move ahead.
