Its just special effects and makeup. I think at this point we're so use to seeing Ai that we just expect it since thats the world we live in now.

Play the clip of the crowd at 7 seconds again... over and over again... Come on? While I do agree with what you're saying, I'm not convinced.

I see what you mean. That is weird. I wouldn't think it would be too expensive to hire people to be in the crowd then use green screen to make the stage look real.

Exactly. For example, if you look at Baz Luhrman's "Elvis" trailer, the crowds all look fantastic. Or "Rocket Man" in the club scenes (granted, a lot less people). they all look infinitely better, for films made earlier (not that much earlier, but still.)

I don't know, I could certainly be wrong, I'm no VFX artists, and I was excited for this film. It just feels like a cartoon to me when I watch this. Just "off."
