read this earlier - really impressive

Still goes to show though - all the CGI in the world can't make up for a gripping story line (Poseidon)....

The original was much better than the remake. Same with Flight of the Phoenix. Why they felt the need to mangle a classic I'll never know...

Some impressive rendering power there though
