There’s a difference between presenting an innovation and using an unfinished technology in a multimillion dollar project.
Also, if you have to add “for a 16 years old [CGI] model” than it really doesn’t look that good. And TPM looks way better than AOTC.
Are we now excusing any poor decison of Lucas as being brave or innovative?
It seems to me that your distaste for the movies are keeping you beholden to the idea that innovation is only valid if it breeds perfection. But at the end of the day, that is not how innovation works, nor has it ever.
Perfection? Doesn’t have to be perfection, we would settle for Good.
