That sounds about like what I pay. With anything you need to shop it around to get the best deal.

I see what you are saying about models versus CGI. But I wouldn't use "Attack of the Clones" as any sort of bench mark for anything but just how bad movies can be (if you really try). For CGI you need to look at something from Pixar. They are coming out with a movie next month ("Finding Nemo") that I expect to be really good. They do it right. Pixar makes it a point to make movies for kids that not only adults will enjoy, but that really are suitable for children. I took my kids to see "Shrek". While it was a good movie I didn't understand why it had to include mild bad language. I figured they must of though it added to it's appeal for older kids? For me it ruined the picture. I certainly didn't buy it for my kids when it came out to own. CGI can be good, but the film maker who uses it to good affect is rare. I thought they did a good job with it in "Titanic". Of course they used a mix of live action footage with the CGI stuff. Say what you will about the movie, but that fucking boat look real!
