I haven't seen the movie yet (Planning to go tomarrow) so I don't know if this was only in the trailers or what but check it out!

they probably modified it a little (the bottom pic doesn't have the planes on it and so on). Did the original pearl harbor use CGI for the ships?

smooth move, and a better catch.

No point in burning money on something you already have.

:BOT: Nice observation!

Bay usually has the same type of shots. Like when Frenzy is fighting Keller and Maggie, the camera spins around the room. Bay did it in Bad Boys II (ugh) and The Rock (I think) :CON:

If you read the article linked in the first post there's an explanation at the bottom, the image from "Peal Harbor" was actualy modified with CGI to make a shot of a new carrier look like a WWII era carrier, so the shot from Transformers is the original unmodified shot.
