Then I started doingsome Google searches which ended with more commercials.. I was starting to doubt myself. so I changed my question to "which submarine was used in the GMC Sierra commercial?" and I found a link via Facebook to Spectral Motion. When I when to the link I found this and laughed my ass off.

The H&R Block Aircraft Carrier commercials  where shot on the USS Hornet.. and Lots of CGI.
A quick phone call to the USS Hornet Museum verified this.

    Yea its getting to the point where you really can no longer believe what you see.

     

    Between good model making with 3D printers and the thriving miniatures market, you can get very good detailed toys to use in your CGI videos.

     

    I wonder how many people are being controlled by a good artificial personality backed up with a good CGI character.

     

    Makes you wonder, doesn't it.
