Anything Into Oil
Ooops... ignore this post. I just noticed this was posted a few days ago.
To make it up for it, here's a cool new Honda Advertisement (No special effects were used!).

BECAUSE of House 8- I pitched this story - and now CNN is doing a piece on the oil-making machine May 14th. I will include the link to it when it airs.

I got this link last week but didn't watch it. It's very cool, but the story that circulated with it, that it wasn't "faked or enhanced with computer graphics. It took 606 takes to get it right. Take #606 got it as one shot."
I don't believe at all. It's too intricate, the tracking shot is too complex and in this day and age, no company would allow this much time/money to be wasted when a cheap technology could fake the results. I'll assume this is CGI-enhanced until proved wrong. Still it's very cool.

Actually, they claim that it did take two shots to get it all in, because the area they filmed it in wasn't big enough for the whole thing. It is allegedly stitched together where the muffler rolls on the floor.
