People talk shit on old special FX in movies, but a lot of that stuff required a pretty high order of dedication at that point in time to do without modern aids. These days we can't even get consistent frame rates during intense CGI sequences. They say the heavily CGI aided scenes feel better at lower frame rates, fine, make the whole movie the same frame rate. On top of that, whoever is in charge of the actual animation of the CGI models frequently needs to be kicked in the dick because it has gone downhill in the last five years. Fuckin Hobbit had parts that turned my monitor into a strobe light and I thought my GPU was taking a shit on me. How many millions did that movie take? /rant
