what's that CGI theory called?

[nageov3t]

wasn't there some theory about how you could only take realistic CGI so far before the "realism" became like intrinsically creepy?

It really depends on the amount of tentacles that can be on air at the same time.

I'm trying to explain to someone why Matt Bomer creeps me the fuck out despite the fact that objectively, he's physically attractive.

I'm fairly certain that he's a robot.

I'm sure we'll get past it, to the point when the CGI stuff becomes less weird-looking than regular people.

Heh.... That's kind of funny. I watched Polar Express last night and found myself saying how creepy some of the characters were.
