sgtmajjohnson (4 hours ago) [-] Do you mean that CGI specifically, or all CGI? Because have you seen Blur studios? Pic related, because of my account's name.

We even now know the actual colors of some dinosaurs due to how well preserved there feathers are (look up Anchiornis huxleyi for the most popular example). Also here is what a modern day dinosaur looks like.

And soon, we may have real life, cool dinosaurs, too.

breaking news pokemons are not real creatures, peta have been filed a suit by Nintendo for harassing over animal abuse claims that had cost Nintendo millions of unsold pokemon games.

In JP all dinosaurs felt .. well, like cartoons. No matter how well made.
Even the most advanced 3D models still leave that subtle impression they are fake.
Bringing CGI to the foreground should be preserved where either the whole Picture is in the same semi-computer-generated style (like "Beowulf" or even better - The Witcher trailers) or where the overall style of the movie does not rely on making the CGI characters in the foreground realistic (like "The Guardians of the Galaxy", Iron man etc.).

Because I'm human and humans crave recognition. Besides, I'm just curious why this gets thumbs, I've seen it a million times since that movie came out.
