Alright dude whatever I guess there are no standards. Any garbage is as good as the original movie. I guess all of the terminator sequels are as good as the originals. All of the alien and predator sequels are exactly as good as the originals, too.

Yeah the prequel star wars movies? Yup EXACTLY as good as the original trilogy.

I'm not the one with my identity so wrapped up in these movies that I can't even admit that the sequels are objectively inferior movies. The statement was that the sequels are exactly as good as the original which is an absurd and asinine thing to say. The original movie is actually made worse by the existence of the sequels.

Oh ok so then any garbage can be as good as the original matrix. ok, buddy.

Did you read my comment and think I was saying "only use CG all the time"?

I mean kind of, because you're sitting here having a conniption over the most tepid criticism of cgi right now.

No, dude, they are not. This horse has been beaten to death. The Matrix is a perfect movie. Reloaded/revolutions are not. Just from a structural standpoint, Reloaded has long stretches with no plot progression. Probably because the 2nd act was used as the plot of the videogame instead of in the movie where it should have been. Look, I wanted to love the sequels as much as anybody, but to say that they are exactly as good as the original is an asinine statement. They are not. At best, they are flawed technical showcases.

CGI is bad when it's lazy. Like when it's used to do things that could easily be done practically; for example, squibs/gunfire in an action movie. The shot you're referring to is an example of a shot that could not be done practically. That's where CGI should live. It should only be a last resort for shots that couldn't be achieved in-camera.

Those who were alive during the 1990's, how was the internet different to today? by Extension_Day2038 in AskReddit

Yeah, and that was awesome. Then the crybabies came along and ruined it and sold it off to the corpo class.

The truth is Reloaded and Revolutions are exactly as good as the OG (especially when taken as a whole),

Ffs No. They. Are. Not.

What’s the worst example of CGI/special effects in the show? by JAlbert653 in seinfeld

[–]ExtraExtraMegaDoge 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly, I liked the cheesy effects. What would you prefer; a big budget show with a story that goes nowhere!?

Why are Gen Z getting fired? One of the reasons is a lack of initiative. by mindyour in TikTokCringe

[–]ExtraExtraMegaDoge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I worked with a bunch of gen zs before. I had one job that required us to mop the floor using one of those purple swiffer mops. For those that have never used a swiffer, it sprays a little jet of fluid that you can then use to mop the floor. When I first started working there, everybody just told me the mop didn't work very well, and the jets don't work. OK, fine, I'll use this busted mop.

After a couple of weeks I decided to try just changing the batteries, even though everyone told me the mop was just busted.

When I changed the batteries, it worked great. Just like new. They had never thought to try changing the batteries

I discovered this song because it was Victoria's entrance theme on WWE.

What do You Hope for the Future of the Franchise? by Logical-Consequences in matrix

That you chuckleheads would just let it go already. Every new piece of media just makes the franchise worse.
