Shooting took a brisk 60 days; post-production took a full year and 10 special-effects companies. Every frame was manipulated and color-shifted to create an intense, thunderstorm palette. Creatures and landscapes and entire armies were created from scratch. With the kind of computing power directors have at their disposal, editing becomes more like painting than moviemaking. Time speeds up for dramatic effect, then slows down to capture a balletic spear thrust. Computer-generated elephants rear up and plummet off computer-generated cliffs. The Persian King Xerxes becomes 9 ft. tall. In one scene a nubile oracle dances...

The Hawks offense exploded for eight goals in the second frame, while Harvard’s attack, plagued all afternoon by shots that seemed to either hit the post or miss just wide, was able to tally just one score in the final two quarters. The visitors dominated in the second half thanks in large part to their overwhelming speed. When...
