For the train racing scene, did you try making the motion blur a bit more cartoony and colorful (like Smallville)? Still, I thought what you did worked well.

I've never seen Smallville, so I'm not sure what you mean. But I tried to make it realistic looking.

Have you considered not joining the two films directly but putting in an intermission card and running the score for a minute or two? At that runtime, it's not unreasonable.

Yes, I did, but scrapped the idea because it doesn't fit in with my intention of making these movies feel more modern. :)

Of course you could just make it a 2-disc set with the disc change covering the problem. 2 DVD5s are cheaper to burn than a DVD9.

I don't know. I really like the idea of having the whole thing flow together one movie. The break does remind people that these were originally two movies.
