Mary-Kate and Ashly both do act the same. They both suck. I say the effects in Attack of the Clones were far better then the ones in Lord of the Rings. I honestly couldn't tell the clones were digital until someone told me. They fooled me. Everything look perfectly liflike. Look at Walking with Dinosaurs. The digital dinosaurs looked better then the puppets they used for close ups. Sometimes the dinos were half digital and half puppet and I honestly couldn't tell the difference. This movie amazed me that such excellent effects could be done for a 1999 television project. Don't get me wrong before digital technology came around I had no problem with live action effects. I am still a fan of Ray Harryhousans work. Today however computers have got to the point were you can put anything on screen in 100% photorealism. After seeing Final Fantasy I believe that actors days are numbered.
