minus-squareTelodzrum@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up21·5 months agoI guess you missed literally almost everyone when it came out saying “Looks amazing, but is just a longer Fern Gully in space.” I have never heard anyone call it good, excepting those who praised the legitimate achievement it was for visual effects.
