I loved the Barbie movie but if I see one more post about how “it’s so beautiful because it was all practical effects not CG uwu ” I’m going to lose my goddamn mind
#what the fuck do you people think the 300+ vfx artist listed in the credits did?????#you think they’re just there for decoration???#honestly fuck Christopher Nolan and his ‘no cg’ bullshit and Greta Gerwig you’re a great director but you’re on thin fucking ice#insane watching directors lean and lean on cgi and vfx and then turn around and completely disavow it because it’s not…. idk?#it’s not popular atm? it’s not sexy enough?#god it makes me so angry#you do good work and you take pride in what you make and it looks amazing and your reward is ppl congratulating directors for not hiring you#people will see a puppet that’s been fully CGIed over and was poetic about how you can TELL it’s practical#looking at you Vecna and Jarnathan#and the most recent predator#I might delete this late but it sucks the industry is so fucked by the strike right now things are bad#and on top of it all the two biggest movies with HUGE vfx presences are sitting around preening about how they didn’t use vfx#for fucks sake#y’all want to support vfx artists? consider that we’re ARTISTS and not just a cheap replacement to practical things#or at least that we can be both idk#I’m already bracing myself for this shit to roll back around when my latest project comes out#I did not sell 18 months of my life it Aardman for ppl to set around talking about how revolutionary it is that there’s no cg in [redacted]

It stg every time I see an anti-CGI-in-movies post I have to physically put my phone down to restrain myself from replying with a ten page diatribe about why that's a stupid stance everyone applaud my self control
#it makes me SO ANGRY#they're always written by ppl who have ZERO knowledge of how vfx in film actually works#and then there 700 replies that are nonsense or misinformat#but the trex in Jurassic park- THE FULL BODY SHOTS WERE CGI STFU#but Guillermo del Toro- WE REDID ALL HIS CREATURES OVER THE PROSTHETICS STFU#but vecna/jarnathan/the predator- THE WERE ALL RETOUCHED YOURE NOT SEEING PURE PRACTICAL EFFECTS#AUGH#as if vfx artists don't have it rough already#you get punched by your studio punched by the director#and then if your shit is good enough people will say Look! Look how good these practical effects were!#it makes me want to scream#you spend your days making things so that people can ignore it if it's good and hate you if it's bad#I'm begging people think for a SECOND before you just slam and entire art form and professional field ffs#okay I'm done#I have so much to say about this I could go on forever
