Do you wish we had more non-CGI, visual-focused movies?

I watched 2001 a Space Odyssey, and am blown away at how they did those scenes.

That stargate sequence was beautiful and the use of layering, filters, lighting, exposure, is all amazing.

For being made in 1968, it holds up so well. Even by todays standards because that movie was well before CGI.

That artistic creativity makes the movie such an experience and the fact that over half of it is silence or music, no talking. It is a show don’t tell movie for sure.

Also Hal 9000 made for some super intense scenes.

I am gushing I know. But this movie is not like anything I have seen in terms of handmade visual effects. So beautiful.

Todays movies seem so much more fast paced, with a focus on flashy computer effects. Maybe it’s just what I watch. Not saying they are all like that, just the popular ones mainly.
