Nine Israelis killed, 11 missing, dozens injured after Iranian missile hits Beit Shemesh building
When bad CGI is everything you ever wanted
I’m rewatching Kung Fu Hustle. There’s a lot of discussion about how CGI hit amazing peaks a decade and a half ago, but fell off in favor of studios cranking out schlock, but what about the movies where bad CGI is absolutely perfect?
When Stephen Chow is bugs bunny cartoon running and the old lady hits the billboard - that is absolutely perfect. When he’s kicking people in the final fight and there’s pinball machine noises - perfect.
Also Kung Pow with the cow fight, and basically that whole movie.
When is bad CGI exactly perfect for the joke? What movies use it effectively or in a self-aware manner?

What other movies have shootouts on par with Heat?
I consider Heat to have the greatest shootout of all time on screen. The sound is half of it, when you can hear all of the automatic weapons echoing off the city buildings. What other movies have long shootouts like Heat with gritty realism. No, I don't think movies like John Wick etc. count, because they're more about stylized violence. I'm looking for grittier more realistic stuff with long shootout sequences like Heat.
