[JB1981]

People at work were taking about Man of Steel today and kept saying how the graphics at the end were too much! Too many graphics!

 

[AntoneM]

Guess not.

 

[Shaanyboi]

My mom's main criticism against Fellowship of the Ring was "It was too much imaginations"

 

[Brian Fellows]

No because I'm guilty of it myself.

 

[John Rabbit]

i can't hate something i've never experienced.

people actually say this?

 

[ISOM]

I really do.

 

[Zoramon089]

I hate people who shorten harddrive as HD. It's HDD. Get it right

 

[JB1981]

Yes I have heard people say it all the time

 

[Kai Dracon]

I don't hate it, but I am amused.

It was a fine year, that one. All the videogames were movies and all the movies were videogames.

Haha, sounds like my mother's complaint about every movie she watches: "too fantastical/imaginative." She has absolutely no ability to suspend disbelief.

 

[Korigama]

I never hear anyone say this.

 

[The Interrobanger]

I hate it when people call things CGI instead of just CG. I instantly assume that they also still call the internet the "world wide web" and need to tighten up the graphics on level 4.

Sounds like my parents. Apparently anything other than explosions, car crashes and fist fights are too unrealistic to them.

 

[cheststrongwell]

No.

 

[MIMIC]

LOL, I've never heard people refer to visual/special effects as "graphics"

Then you should be calling it Hard Disk Drive. No, but I get what you mean.


But, those graphics in Man of Steel were pretty cool..

 

[jtb]

a bit.

Well, if you're actually shortening hard drive, would it not be HD? I don't think I've ever heard someone call them hard disk drives.

 

[WillyFive]

I've heard it a lot, doesn't really bother me. It comes out more naturally and less awkward than 'VFX' (now this I've never heard someone say), and shorter to say than 'special effects'. Shorter and more convenient always wins.

 

[Can Crusher]

Zack Snyder really needed to tighten up the graphics in scene 3.

Zack Snyder really needed to tighten up the graphics in scene 3.

I agree.

Scene 3:

No, why should you? Films are part of our culture, to some they are nothing but entertainment and a pass time.

To others it's their livelyhood, hobby etc. Why do you feel like everyone should use film terminology accurately? Should auto mechanics be upset when customers say the gear shifts on their car is failing?

I hate it when people refer to tennis matches as games =p

I tase them until they get it right

 

[sans_pants]

Ive done a bit of vfx. I don't care at all

 

[Trickster]

Never met anyone that have called them that. So no

 

[DiscoJer]

I've never heard either graphics or VFX. Usually CG or CGI
