haha, there is no way that article is real!
Christopher Nolan's directive was clear to everyone in the cast and crew: Use CGI only as a last resort.

This movie was the worst thing to ever happen EVER.
Falling in love is the greatest joy in life. Followed closely by sneaking into a gated community late at night and firing a gun into the air.

that article is crazy. It sounds made up. where'd it come from? The girl's still wearing the gown she wore at the oscars? The boy's father beats him for not talking to journalists? WTF?

Oh yes, I should have linked to the source.  Sorry.  This article is not the only one that mentions the boy being hit for not speaking to journalists, though.

'Slumdog Millionaire' DVD Arrives with Major Problems

We've been receiving a ton of emails here at Cinematical from folks who bought bad copies of the Slumdog Millionaire DVD. What happened was that some DVDs entered the marketplace without any of the special features on them; one Cinematical reader wrote in to say that all he got was the movie and a few trailers. Over on Amazon, their review wall is packed with folks complaining about receiving a botched DVD, and good news is the retailer has finally issued an alert for those of you who got screwed. See below:

DVD Alert: We are aware that special features were missing from a number of Slumdog Millionaire DVDs. Fox has set up a hotline telephone number (1-888-223-4FOX) for those consumers who may have purchased a version that does not contain special features. Upon calling the hotline, these consumers will be able to have their disc replaced for one containing special features. Fox regrets any inconvenience this has caused.

FOX is such a screw-up nowadays, if they had been trying to pull an April Fools prank, they would have accidentally shipped all the DVDs perfectly and there would have been no problems.
