Believe it or not, there is 6 minutes of onscreen CGI in T2 and only 6 minutes of onscreen CGI in Jurassic Park. The 80s and 90s were magical with practical effects. So many things were difficult to imagine how they were pulled off.

In the last 20 years, everything’s just CGI. Movies like Mad Max: Fury Road and Fall Guy are few and far between.

My friend, there are over 2000 VFX shots in Fury Road, and at least 600 in The Fall Guy.

I get that people are tired of CGI, but it’s a tool that is used in virtually every film that reaches theaters, for reasons as prosaic as matching skies between shots.

Mad Max: Fury Road

Mad Max: Fury Road is wall to wall CG, compositing and everything in between.
