Someone else pontificating on something they haven't seen, based on 
nothing but their own annoyance at other people's prior work. I just saw 
it today.. CG was seamless. And I mean completely seamless. Its 
impossible to tell what, if any, or even if all, was done live, even the 
stuff that its impossible to have been live, with *very few* exceptions, 
and even those are hard to pin down. The story, is very good, as far as 
I am concerned, not some choppy bit of whatever, stitching the effects 
together.
