How is the CGI better than the original trilogy... yet at the same time more fake and obvious?

because the lotr trilogy only used cgi sparingly
they used huge miniatures, matte paintings, costumes and make-up, forced perspective, endless ingenius practical effects and tricks, before they resorted to cgi
for the hobbit they just said "fuck it, do it on the computer and let's break for lunch"
same reason the first jurassic park still mogs the rest of the franchise

>for the hobbit they just said "fuck it, do it on the computer and let's break for lunch"
thats not exactly what happened Jackson didn't decide to just pull a Lucas.
I might getting details wrong but the Hobbit had a very rushed production Guillermo del Toro originally was going to be the director and eventually dropped out mid production. The original plan was to shoot 2 separate movies one following Bilbo and to Erebor and one following Gandalf to Dol Guldur. Guillermo del Toro dropping it cause a huge shit fest where the script was rewritten and Jackson jumped into direct.
If shit with del Toro didn't go down the way it did we probably could have gotten a much better trilogy. I would say in fact that Hobbit is filled with moments of greatness destroyed by the over all pacing and additions made which all kinda seem indicative of a rushed production.

just by the terms you're incorrectly using, it's obvious you don't know what you're talking about

Oh, the pot said to the kettle.

He's not wrong a quick google search proved that.
>While dreaming up his Tolkien adaptation, Jackson had plenty of time to map out his first Middle-earth trilogy, followed by a lengthy shooting period where much of the material was shot back-to-back. Although filmmakers are rarely gifted as much time of they'd like, The Lord of the Rings began pre-production in 1997, kicked off filming in 1999 and finished initial shooting 14 months later, with each film afforded a year of post-production. Although not always smooth, production on The Lord of the Rings went about as well as could've been expected for a project of that magnitude, and Jackson was present every step of the way to maintain his vision.
The situation was very different on The Hobbit, with Jackson himself bemoaning the lack of time he was given to produce a whole new trilogy. The director claims that after taking over from del Toro, he was thrust right into filming, with zero time or space for pre-production, leaving him to arrange shots and rewrite scenes on the fly. Jackson admits that he never felt "on top" of The Hobbit's production, and it comes as no surprise that a less cohesive creative process resulted in a less cohesive trilogy.

faggot doesn't know the difference between production and pre-production
literally the most basic of filmmaking terms
Leo Gonzalez
There's nary a mention of these terms in his post, and it was in fact rather bereft of filmmaking terminology, user.

Despite the CGI, and even with its problems, I actually liked the first movie. And Howard Shore still had his mojo, felt like I was GOING ON AN ADVENTURE. Not Kino or anything, but still I watch I liked. Then it completely shit the bed, and I'm not sure how even Howard Shore wasn't able to make a single memorable track in 2 and 3. Even completely reusing the music from 1 would've been better.

>he literally left in the middle of filming
i.e.: mid-production; these terms are interchangeable. Either way, this is logic chopping fallacy.
Samuel Brooks
that is dropping out of the middle of production, user...

You can smell the smug self satisfaction emanating from this post(and the bussy juice)

Part of it is the stupid decision to film with HFR and 3D. The fully practical foreshortening tricks used in LotR like in this picture didn't work because of the filming method so everything had to be composited or CGI'd. That's why you get the meme image of Ian McKellan on his own in front of a green screen with his head in his hands. The sovl has been removed.

He famously left in pre-production because of delays, user was being sarcastic, you fucking brain dead cretins.

Again, that's a whole lot of pot calling the kettle black, user.

The only thing you pointed out is that your autistic about some esl using film making terms incorrectly.
