      I would be shocked (shocked, I say) if Hollywood wasn’t mostly a front for money laundering rings.

      The whole reason the film industry is on the west coast is that they were trying to avoid paying for Edison’s patent on the motion picture camera. So, yeah, Hollywood was founded on IP violations.

      I mean yeah.

      Where do you think all the money for the biggest box office movies goes to? Like 3-5 people on top, then little goes to the main cast/crew, then quality fx and editing are an afterthought.

    The cgi in new movies has been getting worse and worse lately; the mandalorian movie was laughably bad in some spots.

    At least they didn’t have to remove a moustache the actor had because of another film they were shooting.

    Eh, the new Supergirl movie had its special effects done by the same studio that did Superman. The issue here is the writing and cinematography.
