i disagree skinz. sure, Yi Sun Shin features computer-like special effects {like those three and a half hour Lord Of The RIngs movies}But, i know that it won't capture me, like AOW did. Plus, my girlfriend, will still think it is "Chinese Crap" One problem with computer graphics is that the graphic artists aren't too familiar with the real life conditions or movements of the objects they're animating. You end up with very "perfect" looking things moving in a "perfectly" generated environment , which of course can look quite unreal. The wooden warships of the past were vile things on which to serve (those of any culture) and those pretty things I've seen in the preview seem a bit antiseptic. I'll try to keep an open mind and I look forward to the program.

I was thinking of this while watching the Superman movies (1 and 2) and I came to the conclusion that I preferred seeing models used on screen rather than CGI. Sometimes CGI looks fakely too bright to me - not crisp or clear (I'm not sure how to put it). But of course it depends on how the lighting and shadows are done. Which is why I probably liked and never had a problem with the Archfiend's plastic axe!

I just like to say the AOW series were the best thing I have ever seen. I like the characters in the story, the secenes, and others.
That final episode was good.
Farewell the Age of Warriors.

Hey paintball Phil, I have to reply here because of spoilers, if any. CCH was a thorough scoundrel. As I saw old CCH cower before the Ghost off CCH Past, I was moved to say "Don't sweat it, remember how full of crap you were then, too". It would have been a better ending to have a posturing and weasleing out contest between the two CCHs. It would have been an endless draw, with old CCH grabbing the chest and insisting on his own virtue. As he died, they both do their Beavis Laugh. HaHaHaHa--Huh AHuh a-huh Ha ha haah Uh Huhh Huhh...

Oh, M. Crabby, that is funny! HaHaHa. I laugh in spite of my title. Tut! Tut! But honestly, The Defender's loyalty knows no bounds: Aw, CCH died. Did you see my faithful brother Yak-jin dropping tears? Really, though, I think CCH meant to do good in the beginning, but he became isolated and then couldn't see what things were turning into.
