I don't disagree. Practical effects are are almost always preferable to CGI, especially with things like explosions and fluid movement. I'm just saying that special effects themselves have largely improved, to the detriment of the medium as a whole

I think I get your point better now, CGI has improved and is now being used for everything because it's "good enough" but this has lead to a reduction in quality because no one bothers to do anything properly any more?
