First, I doubt IHOP would have the money to spend on good CGI and its not even close to good. Look at the way the plane and cars bounce around. But the light pole is the biggest giveaway; it just falls over, its not even anchored to the pavement. Theyre all just miniatures. I dont even think its stop-motion animation.
