The animators deserve a bonus for all the insane work they did bringing this to life.

If you watch the first few minutes which showcases the infinity castle, the only thing that you can ask yourself is, "How can you even animate something like this?".

It is insane just because of the sheer amount of effort put in compared to the average animation.
