Oh I'm in agreement with you about in camera fx. They certainly can be flawed. And I'm not suggesting that they're perfect merely because they are photographed, but that any new shots adhere as closely as possible to the photographed footage, live-action and original fx shots.
That's why that new shot of adys appears to need a little softer focus in the background or a sharper one in the mid. Otherwise, the different focal lengths might stand out way too much. But I'll actually wait though until the footage is out.
And Monroville's suggestion about, to paraphrase him here, "clogging up shots with too many things", certainly warrants some attention.
Lars, I think that's a rock outcropping, not a speeder.
