This, plus the CGI in the del Toro hellboy movies was amazing. It's hard to take anyone who complains about CGI in general seriously.

Every time someone feels the need to boast about their R rating, I clutch my pearls for the edge. Look back at shade the BvS Ultimate edition release got when the marketing tried to coast on the success of Deadpool by talking about a possible rating bump on the home release. What aren't these PR guys learning here?

The fact that they let Zack Snyder and Goyer keep on working should tell you no one learns from the past in that business.

I enjoyed the Hellboy movies, but the Hellboy comics are brilliant adaptations of folklore, not fast paced action for the most part.

All of Hellboy's amazing visuals were practical effects not CG, and when people refer to bad CGI it's generally understood they are referring to creatures or fight sequences and not filling in scene backdrops

There has been constant effort since 2 to make a sequel. They want to continue the franchise, but couldn't make a sequel work, so now it's a reboot.

del Toro wanted to do it, Pearlman wanted to do it, but Mignolia pitched a fit about del Toro starting the idea with tweet, or something.

If you think the theatrical OT released in the 70s-80s are trash tier CGI then you are wrong. I'm guessing you thought I was talking about the special editions, which were re-released in theaters, and then updated later after the prequels were made

That's special effects in those old movies may have been good for their time but they're absolute trash now.

CGI = computer generated imagery

Star Wars used mostly practical effects, but it still used CGI (the lightsabres, Princess Leia's recording, etc.)

That's how CGI should be used though. You shouldn't even notice that it's there.

They weren't computer generated. They were rotoscoping. If you think the original Star Wars could do computer generation when it was insanely expensive and impractical, and the original Star Wars was considered a failure before release, I don't know ow what to tell you.

Ignorance, plain and simple. The amount of realistic CGI that you probably didn't even know was CGI is likely startling if you think that the stuff in Star Wars OT was better.
