But it can appear god awful on the big screen and some of what I have seem recently has made me cringe at how fake it looks.<br /><br />Matt. It is enjoyable to be sure.

Practical sets are so much better but since CGI is so much cheaper it's just not going to go away, a real shame.Danielhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11999677394326327996noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7361829068869115622.post-58277689389046997232011-05-19T07:40:25.682-07:002011-05-19T07:40:25.682-07:00Sounds pretty close to what I was expecting, so no...Sounds pretty close to what I was expecting, so not a huge shock.
