      That's the thing about CGI, you don't notice it when it's good, but you notice it very well when it's flawed.
      With that said, things do seem to look the best when it's a good mix of both practical and CG.

    I can see the fire on the arrows not being real, but the whole of all those arrows being shot from bows in relative close-ups being a complete visual effect is incredible.

      @@empireoflightz Not lazy at all as VFX works is extremely expensive and time consuming. You can't shoot an arrow near a person, so a digital asset is going to be used either way, the reasons why one would replace it with digital assets is to have full control of the quantity and where they land, also for composition, maybe they shot a real arrow on a take but the lighting is incorrect.
