<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR>But I really don't like the way he swings himself onto the back of his horse just before the Warg battle. I slo-mo'd through it on the DVD because I was sure that it was a CGI, but it's difficult to tell. I remain convinced that it is CGI, though, because it just doesn't look humanly (or even elf-ly) possible to me. At some point his whole body twists round in a way that seems to defy anatomy.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE><P>I'm almost positive that it was CGI, Saucepan Man. You're right. It <I>isn't</I> humanly possible to do that. He grabs onto the left side of the horse, and you would think by the way his arm was that he was going to swing around the other way, but then as he swings it looks really cartoon-y. They could have done alot better on that part. <P> <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR>But seriously, yes, I think the worst thing would be if PJ got too carried away and made every aspect ridiculously over the top...like Matrix Reloaded, which seemed to revel in its phoneyness.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE><P>Hmm...well, Legolas did suddenly learn the art of snowboarding from one movie to the next, so who knows? Maybe he'll figure out how to defy gravity by the next movie!
