Since I respect Ridley Scott and his movies don't typically have things just blowing up, hopefully it wasn't him. Maybe his brother Tony or Michael Bay.

CGI only carries a movie so far. I have been over empty blockbuster spectacle for a while (since before it was all CG) and others are coming around.
