Blame the Asian markets. From what I understand movies are considered an “event” expected to last week over two hours.
I very much agree that most movies have way too much filler added to reach their current lengths.

Had too much noticeable CG for my liking really hurt my overall enjoyment of it unfortunately. It also honestly could have been 30 minutes shorter, but that’s a criticism I have of nearly all movies coming out lately.

Sorry, what did your liking hurt exactly?

Funny. I watched it just recently. I noticed something a bit CGi very early on, realised that that whole thing would be a distraction and turned that off in my brain … didn’t notice a thing afterwards and didn’t care … the film looked great.
I keep saying it … this practical v CGI thing has gone too far.

I’m glad that works for you but I can’t really just turn something off like that.

I can understand that. Really don’t want to stack you personally or anything. It’s part of why I describe it as a cultural thing that’s give to far. If everyone is talking about it, it’s on our minds as it was on mine. My ability to ignore may be significantly attributable to not great eyesight (even with glasses, there’s something that’s lost from your peripheral vision IME).
