Is it about Poser or the fact that they used already made figures? Everybody is assuming that they used Poser. How is it to be considered if they only used the figures and models, but manipulated and rendered the scene in a high end app' that cost thousands of dollars. It's possible that the mesh was altered and re-rigged to work in another program. Then of course is the ultimate forbidden I would guess among the proud big money software using artists-It could have been done in Daz Studio 0.1 and post worked in Paint Shop Pro 6 on an old fosil computer from yesteryear. 

Fancy expensive software is nice to have, but it doesn't make all of the images. If that's how CG is governed then we really need to go back to the basics again and pick up a pencil and some sketching paper and make art to understand it. The nicer tools only have more features or capabilities. The artist is still the same. Tools are tools. Then there is the whole passion thing. Do you do it for money or fun and is one more important than the other? Ask ancient man and the people that doodled on cave walls. Problem is this. Will computer art be viewed 2000 or more years from now or could it all be lost because the language of the machine is lost with the machines themselves? Or because Windows won't run the program anymore?
