I will say that as much as I am impressed with and love the new shot...there is a part of me that likes the simple hard cuts of the original.
The PT is full of flyby shots just like this. In fact, I believe there are no flyby shots that are made up of two different shots (one shot with a ship coming up towards the camera and the next shot with the ship moving away).
I'm not saying I don't like the new type of shot. I'm not saying the shot can't be effective. In fact, there are some I really like in the PT...it's just something I noticed and I thought it was over used in the PT, IMHO.
Again, I love what Ady did with the shot. Not trying to start anything. :D
