The sets and locations in this film look like shit. You just know it's digital. By contrast you really feel immersed in a real city in the original film. There is truly nothing like the real thing, something solid that actually has weight.
shareI got into an interesting conversation the other day with some film guys about CGI and they brought up a pretty good point. In this age of modern HD, 4K and ever escalating home technology, traditional movie effects simply don't hold up anymore; not for miniatures, makeup, monsters in rubber suits, you name it. The CGI has it's own drawbacks, but it would look infinitely worse without it. I feel I must agree with them on that score. And of course the complications with producing 3D features and that being a big money bucket for the studios.
sharePretty true. The escalation in picture fidelity is an equally annoying factor in the overall lame-quation of modern movies for me tbh. I miss the filmic surface. : ( Every movie looks like a got damn iPhone.
