I am not knocking on the work. It's really superb for what it was. Boring as hell though...
But I can't agree here with it being better graphics that Avatar. All the detail shots were of inanimate objects, which are the easiest to rendor. The only graphics that impress me this day and ago are of humans or humanoids.
I was blown away by Terminator Salvation's splicing on a CG head of Arnold to the body double playing the T2000. I could see the pores of the skin and the glistening of the sweat. If I didn't know any better, you could have fooled me into thinking that was really Arnold from 1982.
Avatar took that to a while new level with the Navi and the animals of Pandora. In no way did it look cartoonish. It was all very real looking and very fluid in movement.
The one man in this piece is seen at a distance and some of the motion isn't fluid, although that oculd be the internet lag. Impressive as it may be, it's no Avatar.
