I know this is not going to be a particularly controversial opinion, but

In the last three weeks I have seen two (2) films about the multiverse, featuring a threat to said multiverse revolving around the family dynamics and parent-child grief of a woman with undiagnosed depression. One was Doctor Strange into the Multiverse of Madness, and the other was Everything, Everywhere, All At Once.

I have not looked up the actual budgetary difference between the two because I care not for your ridiculous “facts” in the face of my own opinions, which are sacrosanct. But as Doctor Strange is Disney and EEAAO is an indie film I’m going to take a stab in the dark and say the former cost about eight times the latter. EEAAO had a much smaller cast that got cleverly reused. Far fewer sets, too, which probably helped.

I bring this up because, of the two, it was the one that looked about eight times more expensive. If I knew nothing about those films, I would assume it was the one with the budget. Literally everything about it was better without exception. The writing by multiple orders of magnitude, the acting, the directing, and yes, the special effects. That was honestly one of the most incredible films I’ve ever seen. There were moments when my husband was openly sobbing in the cinema. The most he managed for Doctor Strange was an “Oh, that’s poignant” once.

I don’t know where I’m going with this but it’s probably something something let artists do their thing and stop making everything CGI something something idk
