    The reasons why CGI is bad doesn’t matter. If the CGI is bad it is bad.

      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.
