I just figured out why I hate the last Pirates of the Carribean movie.

1. Other than Jack, the main characters have all moved on. My investment in the story and stakes is way lower as a result.

2. The CGI fucking sucks. It looks worse than the first movie despite coming almost 15 years later.

@krutonium CGI in general has been getting worse, i feel. There are a few movie which do it well, but all in all i have not been impressed by much in the last 10 years.

@catraxx It can still be done well, the problem is that it's cheap enough to do *okay* now that it's hard to convince execs that no, that shop down the road charging 1/4 as much isnt good enough.

Also I may be mistaken but iirc the first 3 movies, for all the CGI, did do a decent amount of practical.
