| (...) Stop action isn't dead, but it's definitely "retro." Check out Aardman's "Chicken Run" or "Curse of the Were-Rabbit." Talk about attention to detail; there's practically a sight-gag in every frame! Just watch the credits for any modern CGI (...) (18 years ago, 22-Jan-07, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

But considering it came out one year after T2 and one year before Jurassic Park, it was essentially already a throwback to an era whose time had past. A eulogy of sorts. As was (...)
