Even a CGI movie made today will probably look bad 10 or substandard years from now.

I grew up on Spy Kids and Shark Boy and Lava Girl and I've always loved them both Looking back, the plot of Shark Boy and Lava Girl makes no sense, but it's a DREAM. Max is dreaming. That's how dreams work. They're confusing and don't make any senses, but you go along with it anyway and the chaos of it is the entertaining

[@jooniperlynn]

Fun fact: Troublemaker Studios was made so Rodriguez could make movies for his son. Shark Boy and Lava Girl was actually one of his son's dreams that he wanted to bring to life (I believe Spy Kids was too, but this was so long ago I can't remember fully). And the younger shark boy (the one feeding the sharks) was actually played by his son. I think knowing that made me like the troublemaker movies more than I would have. Knowing that Rodriguez didn't just want to make movies for kids, but specifically for his son.

And also the whole "they did it on purpose" thing.
