creature so maligned? I didn't find the special effects that bad,
I've certainly seen worse in other big budget movies. To me he didn't
look especially fake-unlike the dying unicorn LV was drinking from.
Is some of the dislike due to the fact that he wasn't the more
typical "good-looking" centaur as is seen in fantasy such as Xena?
I think that my main problem with the centaur was that he moved so stiffly. He should have walked like a horse, and he just walked like a horse that had really bad arthritis!! Also, I would have preferred him to be a little less ugly, though he wouldn't have had to be extremely good looking!
I agree with your unicorn comments though - couldn't they have produced something more like the ethereal horselike creature most people think of as unicorns?
