I was making fun of people that hate CGI no matter what even if it looks a lot better than what a practical effect would look like. A couple years ago someone made a post nearly identical to mine except they were serious.
Yeah that’s the problem, that kind of statement is regularly made in all seriousness by people round here.
I’ve noticed that dying down quite a bit. A lot of uninformed and stubborn people got it in their heads a number of years ago that they’re film experts and that CGI is inherently lazy and terrible, but I haven’t heard from many of these motherfuckers in a while.
