    Seen it? Seen it? I was there that night on Windward Ave, Venice Beach and saw Orson Welles setting up to film the opening sequences of the surrealistic "Touch of Evil" as Orson Welles productions were always surrealistic more than Hitchcock and up there with Salvador Dali' who gave me his pallet and brushes on his way out the night Dali' died January, 1989. Although great surrealistic art, number crunchers influencing studio heads did not see this, could not see this, refused to see this, therefore misunderstood what they saw with Orson Welles' productions!

    I guess I'm probably the only person in this comment section that can recognize CGI probably 90% of the time. The other 10% of the time it looks real enough that it could possibly not be CGI, but the scene moves so fast that I know it is CGI. You can have airplanes and helicopters in the air filming each other. You can also have cars on the ground filming each other. I don't know how you're doing a video on CGI, and don't know that. It's been done many times. The easiest way to spot CGI is flaws in physics and sounds. It used to be much easier with reflection issues, shadowing, lighting, etc., but now it's way harder to spot. The ironic thing about CGI is when it comes to realistic scenes, they often do it to save money. Instead of paying extras, blocking off a street, hiring stuntmen, etc. But the end product is less interesting and less people are interested in seeing movies in general because they know it's just a glorified video game. The magic of movies is long gone and yes CGI did contribute to that.

    @blackkittycat15 Місяць тому

    I don't hate it, but I do feel like it's an overused and improperly used. I find CGI great in the background or standalone but when you place something real next to it is where it starts to fail. A person standing next to a CGI explosion and is not affected by the heat one should have can look good but feel fake. Then it really relies on how well the rest of the movie is to suspend my disbelief, even if it's fake who cares if it's entertaining.

    Classic movies, like fine music books or food are an acquired taste, when you acquire taste you will enjoy them. Of course going from home cooking to fast food, Ellington to rap, Shakespeare to soaps and Chaplin to bathroom humour has made climbing back to civilization a titanic effort. I'm 73 but I like mainly stuff before my time, ok. the four Scousers were fine tunesmiths and I grew up with them too but from 1200 to the present all art forms have much to offer, and in our time at the touch of a screen!
