@paracuna Жыл бұрын
I think it has less to do with cgi and more with the fact how limited suitmation is, you have to make the suit adjusted to human body, so you can't make it too diverse in shapes and movements can look stiff due to limitations. However I don't think the art is dead, cgi just makes things a bit easier and more organic.

I am of the old school "Gojira", and all three gentlemen played a huge role in my life since I was only 3 or 4 years old the first time I ever watched the 1954 "Godzilla - King Of The Monsters". From the mid to late 1960's to today, I have loved all of these wonderful & fun TOHO movies, including "Destroy All Monsters" which is pretty much a montage of all the monster movies made up to that point. Kenpachiro Satsuma played a big part of all that, and was always my favorite "Gojira" actor. He seemed to add his own special touch to the role. And, every fan of these movies is grieving his loss. God speed, Kenpachiro Satsuma. May Gojira keep watch over, and protect you.
