Summary

This quote highlights the transformation of filmmaking due to advancements in technology. With the evolution of computer-generated imagery (CGI), sci-fi films now have the ability to create vast and visually stunning worlds that were once limited by practical constraints.

This quote underscores the increasingly crucial role of CGI in modern cinema, enabling filmmakers to push the boundaries of imagination and build immersive worlds for audiences.
