    Boy did they play that up with Grey Wind's Grand entrance.. Like "HEY LOOK! WE GOT CGI DIREWOLVES FOR YOU THIS YEAR"

    Wonder how much they paid the twilight folks for the tech.... lol

    Looked more realistic than any of the animals in Rise of the Planet of the Apes..

    Could tell they upped their CGI budget in a couple of the other scenes too, just the landscape shots over the cities looked better.....

    from the GoT wiki..

    Season 2 has a budget 15% higher than Season 1, putting it in the region of $69 million

    I'm sorry, would you prefer they enlist real dire wolves?

    Not attacking you Chad, but I've heard people say things like, "you can tell the dragons are CGI".

    That's cause they aren't real!

    That would be quite a trick...

    Really? I watched Season2 episode again, and I'm quite amazed at how "real" it looked, and how well it was blended into the scene. It had depth, shading and perspective, looked like there was actually something sitting on her shoulder... Better than the dire wolf even (which was good, but still seemed a little too polished.. too shiny... which I think happens to a lot of cgi critters)

    I would argue its the best CGI i've ever seen on a Cable/TV level produced show, at least I cant think of a better example...?

    I wonder what was Losts budget? Now, they had some pretty shitty CGI...

    I wasn't slamming it. They did a really nice job with the new CGI stuff. I just think they played it up to show it off. Even that i'm not saying was all that bad just a little distracting.

    That's bullshit. Cheap bastards should have used real dragons. I'm done with this stupid ass series now.
