Anyways I haven't seen a movie since M3GAN, despite wanting to. Conversely, I have read a lot.
Meanwhile, that which we see in a fictional production is a part of the in-universe events no matter whether it's CGI or "real". The only way the latter is more impressive is if we are evaluating based on the skill (or perhaps the daring) of the actors and stunt crew. That is an evaluation of a performance, which I guess is a thing but is just not quite the same thing.
Meanwhile, if the overuse of CGI makes it look less spectacular in comparison, such desensitization to spectacle only exists as a meta-textual interpretation.
On the other hand if CGI looks awkward, let's not forget the various quirks of live action and hand-drawn animation, where they aren't necessarily fully realistic either -- just that we've gotten used to them.
Anyway that's my personal take.
I know I posted the first one, like, four posts ago, but I wanted to post this because the part at 5:30 about faking behind-the-scene shots is wild.
b) I will never see the Barbie movie because the hype was too much and also all the stuff I found out about the plot made it clear the America Ferrera character wasn't the central part of the point and Ryan Gosling eats up too much screen-time.
c) Darn, I still haven't watched that video.
It was Mary-Kate & Ashley Olsen's New York Minute.
I don't have a whole bunch of time to discuss it, but basically it's a "we need to traverse New York" type movie, with a small emotional core to drive the characters (they haven't really communicated properly since their mother died).
