Heck no. I work harder in Max than i ever did in Pov. The main things that
would have been impossible to do are any glows, particle systems, massive
amounts of geometry, fast blurred lights, and fast motion blurring. It would
have taken a team of Athlon 1 GHZs 5 years to do this in povray. :-)
You want fire? do what you did in Pov. Cheat.
