cg animators still haven't cracked how to make a realistic mouth. when dr manhattan shouts "leave me alone" his mouth looks like a video game character.

i really don't get why he was "hard to do" - couldn't they just shave the guy and paint him blue? his "aura" and shiney eyes could have been done in post production.

a mountain was definitely made out of a molehill with that one i reckon.
