Do you have mathematical proof of more VFX shots in TH than in LOTR?
asking for "Mathematical proof" is IMO a slightly odd challenge in this context. but I suppose I thought that dissatisfaction with the quantity and especially quality of the Hobbit movies' CGI was more or less common ground amongst anyone who'd seen them?
so, yeah, creeping into subjective territory perhaps but I'm fairly sure there was more bad [especially given intervening technical progress] CGI in the Hobbit movies.
in no particular order I was thinking of:
(a) The disgusting goblin town chase scene;
(b) Pretty much anything from the main final battle, with Beorn's ludicrous paratrooper stunt possibly not even the worst offender, up against competition of the calibre of Thandruil's deer and Dain's pig; and
(c) Almost anything involving Legolas - even before the action started the supposedly de-aging or whatever tech had made him look a bit odd, but then a scene like the cartoon/video game barrel riding took bad CGI to the next level, with his final duel against Bolg a dismal coup de grace.
