Ooh, its just like visiting the art shows at SIGGRAPH each year.

I'd say that someone using a computer to create art does indeed have to be talented in traditional arts, know how to draw, handle perspective, understand camera lenses and their functions, etc... You have to understand how to make art no matter what medium is used. You can't simply throw all the rules away, but must know how to use them well.
The computer never generates the exact image you want. The craftsmanship comes from telling the computer what you want to achieve, balancing its simulation versus your vision, and in most cases, lots of tweaking and post render changes. Trust me, it doesn't simply do the work for you.

Wow, I do this same thing sometimes with Google Earth and Shorpy.com Amazing that sometimes a great old building with history now houses a Subway or pawn shop.

Mmmm, 300 baud.

I hiked to Supai last year and got to see up close and personally how mule delivery works. I'm not really sure why they don't use the helicopters that now deliver tourists to the village. Must be cheaper.

More Reeses and less Snickers. That's what I learned today.

Whoops, forgot the 20 years thing too.

I had completely forgotten about Robot Jox until today.

Of course, every list of this type is subjective to the audience compiling it and will not agree entirely with the audience reading it. I'd have put in a vote for Manos: the Hands of Fate myself.

All she needs is an overcast day with no shadows and she'll be golden.

Don't try this at home is just an invitation for me to find a local supplier of the gas. Now I will finally be the life of the party, yesssss.

There's always the option of leafing the pages together and trying to pull two books apart like was demonstrated on Mythbusters with military vehicles doing the pulling.
