What's an example of something that usually goes unnoticed when done well but very noticeable when done poorly or not done at all? (lemmy.world)

I'd argue it matters quite a bit. It shows producers, and by extension a studio, that can't manage production effectively, and that almost always extends to the rest of the movie. "Bad" CG is rarely the only issue with those movies, it's just what you remember most since movies in general require the suspension of disbelief and that pulls you right out of it.

    That the CGI is bad is what matters the most. Why it is bad changes nothing for the viewer.

    Not sure why you are being downvoted for this. It’s true. The takeaway should be “producers shouldn’t rush their VFX and listen to time and budget projections” instead of thinking they can get something for nothing.

    The downvotes are probably because they're just stating something obvious. No shit, bad looking CGI looks bad, that doesn't mean the actual CGI itself is necessarily bad. Small things like wrong lighting can make otherwise great CGI look terrible. The reasons DO matter, even if the average person may not really care and just has the takeaway of "bad CGI".

    Posting that type of response is not actually providing anything to the discussion, it's a useless comment that provides no value. Not all comments and opinions are valid or constructive. The voting system is not really for agree/disagree, but whether a post adds to the discussion.
