On the one hand its amazing the things that can be created through visual effects. On the other hand, it was more interesting when filmmakers had to be more creative because these kind of things couldn’t be created on a computer.

The amount of 3D modelling on display is incredible. I guess most of it is off the shelf these days (including the whole city).
