    No practical effects were everywhere in the film if people bothered to look for that info. It became more convenient (i.e., lazy) for those who disregarded the films to dismiss the PT as a CGI-fest. For example most of the Kamino interiors and exteriors are model work.

    It was a CGI fest. There were just also a bunch practical effects as well.

    im sure they are using that to create a old warzone scene from civil war era... thats all... after 30 years maybe the republic are still using some ATATs but im sure theyll have something newer than that!

    I think the biggest problem with some of the digital shooting were some of the ironic limitations that took tension out of certain scenes. For example, Obi-Wan Kenobi doesn't react naturally to Grievous when they fight, which is simply a result of Ewan not being able to see or hear the precise movements GG is making. Another limitation was that in reality the space the actors were using was often restricted and limited their ability to move. You can see this in AOTC and ROTS with the endless walking back and forth scenes and in the PT in general with all the sitting down scenes.

    It doesn't call, it doesn't write. It just shows up in the middle of the night, drunk, pounding on the door, demanding you let it in.

    For few moments I was thinking: "what Alderaan Civil War has to do with AT-AT on Tatooine. This guy must love this warzone". Too much SWTOR...

    Maybe they were a bunch of drunks, stealing the foot. Guess we'll only know for sure if when the film comes out, there's a three-legged at-at

    Puns are becoming a way of life here.

    Speaking of which, I will start an official thread to have Darth Punk change his name to Darth Pun. Since my friendly advice yielded no results, legal measures will have to be taken.

    I haven't read through this whole thread--do people really think this could be a real spoiler? I'm quite new to these things, even though I'm an "original generation" SW fan (i.e. in my 40s:p). I didn't have the internet at home during the prequels so I was completely unspoiled for those.
