George Lucas. Michael Bay. "McG." Bloated Hollywood billionaires who've built their empires on the shattered remains of our childhood dreams. Since the '90s, the advent of computer technology has graced mankind with larger stomachs, unavoidable pornography, and the complete destruction of the film industry. Big budget movies used to be packed with daredevil stunts, ambitious effects work and innovative ingenuity. Now we're treated to an aromatic buffet of Jar Jars, Shreks and even darker offenses. No thrills, no chills... just the 64-bit machinations of overpaid, Dorito-addicted studio schlubturds. Admittedly, most of America has been too dumb to notice, but anyone with two eyes and half a mind can see that movie magic is being violently murdered, and tonight WE FIGHT BACK!! CGI is hereby on trial, and we're presenting enough evidence for you the jury to send it straight to the electric chair! So prepare yourself for a brutal barrage of twisters, scorpion kings, sharktopuses and farting little buddies, as we hack into the mainframe of CGI retardation and set that buuuuullshit on FIIIIRRRRE!!!

What's with all the Hitler?

[beefcake666]

Why do you feel that "CGI" and modern visual effects are responsible for bad movies or removing the magic from movies? I remember plenty of really bad movies before digital visual effects. What does Hitler have to do with any of it?

[derekmorris89]

Quite a few of these shots are actually good. You're crazy...

One word rebuttal: Pixar. That is all.

[altheg]

Where can I buy/rent this screening. I'm laughing my butt off

[giovannif117]

What are you shitting on Spiderman for?

[viralfunnies]

@beefcake666 Hitler was a major player in the setting up and funding of ILM, which is responsible for 90% of bad CGI today

Hi! I wonder if you've ever met any actual VFX artists? I have known literally hundreds and (with very few exceptions) they are incredibly talented professionals with an astonishing array of creative and technical abilities, who work inhumanly long hours to deliver the best results they possibly can. But hey, it's much easier to sit on the sidelines and cut a cruddy reel of what you consider to be "bad CGI" than to produce a convincing VFX shot (of which there are many).

@jetsonsge The transformation shot from Wolfman was quite definitely made after 2005.

[DepressedSod]

you can say all you want about moviemakers who use CGI, but using hitler to promote your little festival thingy isn't really professional either. and yeah there is a lot of crappy cgi, but there are a lot of shitty practical effects too. Why not celebrate the movies that have great effect instead of complain about movies that you shouldn't have watched in the first place.

Fuck CGI.
