O ive got issues with those **** trees!

It seriously looked like 60's car chases.
They could have skipped those renderings and just had it a down view or distance, ide take that over the view they took. :(

Click to expand...
no, the trees looked alright, just when the compositing (if you know what that is) looks very very low budget

Is compositing how the effect is layed on film or built in the computer?

Didn't get a chance to see the Lord of the Rings, Two Towers. I guess I will wait until it is out on DVD.

I did see Daredevil.
