<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>I think I just saw stills or silent clips before,
when it was discussed last year. In the bit from this clip, they seem to

<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>I don't know what the deal with the CGI is.
It seems to me that this story could be done just fine without too much in the
way of expensive effects. The bit where spacetime comes to a point could
be changed to something less drastic without hurting the story. Dr.
Island's voice is just audio effects. Then you just need a crab-like robot
(shoot a simple version coming out of the sea, then a static version moving it's
arms - or use CGI for this). The nuclear welder is just a standard welder
or torch of some kind, overexposed. All the rest is just folks
talking!</FONT></DIV>
