I know they used the latest Shake product to do a lot of that scene. There's an article about it at:

and

I'm a avid (not AVID) PC user, but dang, I'm really tempted to go Apple for FCP4 and Shake!! It make my heart beat a little faster just thinking about being able to make images look that good.

Don't confuse me! I thought I had made a decision and you go and say something like that. I want a system that works and works well, the Apple users say FCP never crashes. Are they lying to me. This is a different thread isn't it. I'm calling my therapist.

everything crashes once in a while.

FCP users have had a bit of teething problems with the latest barage of updates on all fronts.

I have used FCP many times... it crashes once in a while. I have seen vegas crash too. And premiere crashes more than working... but that is not your concern... just get what feels good to use for you. Simple as that.

Yes, but this, from Apple's web site, may make you think twice about using it on a PC...

"Shake 3 is also available for Linux for a suggested retail price of $9,900 (US) with an annual maintenance of $1485 (US). Render-only versions of Shake 3 are free on Mac OS X and are available for Linux for a suggested retail price of $3,900 (US) with an annual maintenance of $585 (US)."
