It is indeed. Well done! That sequence is very interesting in freeze-frame mode, I must say. I've often wondered how that kind of thing is animated, and it was instructive to look at it.

Actually, I've been freeze-framing quite a lot, and I'm making a list of interesting stuff that I've spotted... and there are quite a few things. One of my favourites is in the war machine, when a piece of wood with a crescent moon cut out of it flies past, closely followed by a roll of toilet paper, still on its spindle


While the Thief is taking flight, he rushes over an exit sign. While the Miramax DVD is a little too soft to make out all the text, it has obscene graffiti all over it. When he's leaving the golden statue area (workprint only), you can see billboards for Karma-Kola and 7th Heaven in the background (designed as parodies of Coca-Cola and 7-Up ads).
