unfinished feel to the CG shots First off I noticed a large number of in-frame artifacts. I'm open to the possibility that I was simply viewing a bad print, but the frequency and nature of the glitches leads me to believe otherwise. Particularly in the post-climax shot where the human survivor armada is descending upon Earth II ( or Bob or whatever ) there is a noticeable glitch in the texturing and shading of the lower-right-hand quadrant of the planet that lasts for several frames. I'm highly interested in how this sort of rendering artifact makes it into a finished production. cheapened notion of death and noble sacrifice I feel preachy saying this, but I was a little disturbed at how easily they sacrificied large numbers of extra charaters in the furtherance of angst-boy's quest without even the tiniest amount of reflection. By the end of the movie the body count was so high I didn't really see the point in sacrificing the Mercenary, why should anyone care?
