You're kidding right? Take the sky during the scenes outside the warehouse at the start of the film - very fake looking. Yeah, it was a nice sunset or whatever but I don't understand why they couldn't just film outside a warehouse with a real sky.

Everybody is entitled to their opinion but sometimes I wonder if I was watching the same film as everyone else.



I was definitely watching the same film as you, that sunset shot looked horrible, not to mention the head falling off the statue, why in god's name do you need to CG an object falling by gravity? it would have been so easy to do it practically and it could have looked real, not that I think it was a very good joke anyway.

A lot of the film didn't look to bad but it seemed that whenever they could they took the easy route, the 'Lord of the rings' films are sometimes criticized as being to CG heavy but at least when they wanted shots of a sunrise they just got up early in the morning and filmed actors against real scenery with a real sunrise. I just don't understand why filmmakers chose to fake things that they could do for real.
