ILM is the way to go, I hope the rumor is true. I also hope that they do
Dobby as a puppet. If you have ever seen Farscape, then there should be
no reason to believe that Henson couldn't do Dobby. Henson would do a
brilliant job. When I think if a CGI Dobby, I just think Jar-Jar Binks,
and that really makes me want to vomit ;-), though I'm not sure Dobby
would be as annoying as Jar-Jar Binks. I think the actors react in a
more natural way to a puppet, because it's physically there, able to be
part of the filming.
