I despise CGI in films, but would be more interested in watching this than another Hollywood "blockbuster"
this is like saying you hate chicken because you got a meal that was just a boiled chicken breast and some macaroni.
You're probably seeing tons of GCI in the things you like, you just don't realize it because the GCI is actually good.
CGI is still art. CGI != AI
How can you despise CGI as a whole? Or are you saying you don't like any animated films?
I have a friend that hates anime. I recently pressed him about it and it turns out that anime = all things animated and cartoons and CGI.
I suggested that it was a Boomer problem and that ended the conversation altogether.
There are lots of animated movies that don't use CGI.
I didn't say they all used CGI. I was trying to figure out what they meant.
Just wait until Disney buys the rights.
I'm holding out for the live action remake.
Pulls off Disney live action remake's mask More CGI, just tuned for photorealism instead of cartoony.
