[Steve Connor] “Of course some of us fanboys would disagree, especially when some of Adobe’s new features are just playing catchup with FCP7/X”
As FCPX’s features are playing catch up with Adobe’s. As Adobe has had a head start of a few years in the 64 bit ingest and play any media I don’t think it would be fair to compare head to head 🙂

[Oliver Peters] “If you look at the past films done by the Hong Kong director, you’ll see that the films are quite a bit more ambitious that any Coens’ film. Not to take away from them, but the workflow is pretty intense on these Kung Fu films.”

I’m familiar with his work which is heavily CGI laden. That’s why I think that it will be interesting to see how far they use it down the post chain. My guess is that the editor brought it in as his fave to assemble dailies…but that’s just a complete guess.

[Marcus Moore] “Tina Fey? What are you talking about?”
See my other post.
Oh, that Tsui Hark. I thought the reference was to a Canadian director. I think from the article they’re using it to piece together dailies at this stage….It’ll be interesting if they try do do the whole film in it.
As far as the Globe and Mail being Canada’s largest national circulation newspaper well being first out of two is definitely true. But giving it to their reporters that’s not exactly a ringing endorsement of its editorial prowess. And God forbid, they try to turn any more of their print journalists into on-camera personalities. That experiment has been just an exercise in advanced awkward.
Nothing to do with FCPX and its future but it’s still mostly a fanboy thing. I think Apple has the design in place to bring it up to par with Avid/Adobe but I’m not sure the management powers that be have the will. If they do it will still take another few years.

[Aindreas Gallagher] “That my friends, is just a huge, gigantic, gargantuan vote of confidence, head turner biggie right there.
Meanwhile Apple is posting profile FCPX user stories from a newspaper in Canada.

That’s the link showing in Aindreas’ post

[Marcus Moore] “es. Canada’s LARGEST newspaper.
…and feature director Tsui Hark.
But let’s not let facts get in the way…”
All I see is Tina Fey mugging (shamelessly but charmingly). Not much facts there 🙂 Must be a removed link or something.
Seriously? Canada’s largest newspaper? Tsui Hark? I’m Canadian, and I’ve heard of Tina Fey but not of Tsui Hark.

[Michael Hancock] “It seems to do what ScriptSync does, but in way more steps and with much less elegance. That said, it’s a start.”
He shows it from Prelude. It can quickly be done inside Premiere by context clicking on a clip, selecting analyze, pointing to the story script and hitting enter. It’s then analyzed in the bg by AME and done. Not too many steps, I think.

[Oliver Peters] “[Brett Sherman] “-Story (but only if I can easily load interview transcripts and have it automatically sync with the video with minimal user input)”
In theory that would step on patents by Nexidia (Avid ScriptSync, PhraseFind). So they would have to do it using a method that wouldn’t violate the patent.”
Seeing as the guts of this feature has worked flawlessly since CS4/5 there’s really no problem. Does it work well? Extremely well with decent sound! (my experience from prior versions).

Nope. I meant a noospherical game changer…a cataclysmic paradigm torque that blows the frontal cortex off the mincing minions…a sublime moment when the teeter totters, awe descends, and the great eye mote blinks and knows the world anew. In other words, a delusional fugue that the marketing types love, and the easily impressed can ride when it suits their cult identification, and denigrate when it doesn’t.

The press release mentions that the Coen brothers are cutting their next feature on Premiere Pro.

[Lance Bachelder] “it’d be cool if the PPro engineering team was as good and responsive as the After Effects and Photoshop teams… sadly not the case when I was a beta tester for several revs…”
Of course things may have changed since CS3 when I believe you’ve said you were last a-beta testin…and it would be silly to think that they didn’t change a lot more when Apple handed Adobe a potential huge chunk of its NLE customer base. For evidence, look at the acquisitions that Adobe went out and made within a few months of the X shocker. But we’ll probably see what the Premiere team has been up to in the next few months, if not sooner.
