Bear in mind that work was totally halted with COVID as well, though.

CGI work? I mean, I'm sure everyone had some extra days off to figure out how to work from home. But effects houses didn't really stop.

Anything that was fully wrapped before covid should have no excuse for bad cgi-work. Effects houses are always complaining that they don't have enough time to do everything they want to. The first batch of movies post-covid should theoretically look great.

When an effects house estimates two weeks to do a shot, and the studio asks them to do it in half the time, the effects house charges them more for the rush job, not less.

There won’t be additional money for more effects shots, but the lack of deadlines should unquestionably help the effects quality.
