I’m not disagreeing, but how is that any different than just about every Marvel movie, or blockbuster in general made in the past five years? If we’re only talking about effects, isn’t it a bit asinine to complain endlessly about Prequel blue screening and then pay it no mind in just about every other modern film? You could argue it looks better now, but if it didn’t look better a decade later I’d be worried.

Plenty of the OT’s effects look rubbish by today’s standards (ROTJ sail barge scene springs to mind), but they’re hardly a case for blue screen being bad, as they shouldn’t be.

The difference is Marvel movies had some great directors and the Prequels had tired sit in a chair and drink coffee Lucas. That and the last two were filmed on primitive camera and will continue to look more and more dated.
