Those weren't about design, actors performance not coming through.. Etc. But, about cgi not being done up to par. Here people are making a deal about the design itself and not cgi quality. The entire movie had bad cgi. It's pretty much a given. They couldn't even get rid of cavill's mustache. Here, people are jumping on design. When in fact, both had used designs that weren't kirby-esque and both used cgi itself intsead of live action actor. Design is a subjective matter. Cgi not being done properly can be assessed objectively as it is about technical aspect. Moreover, an actors performance can come through with cgi. That's a non-issue. As if, thanos and hulk was portrayed using a person with purple make up. Kirby's steppenwolf was a yellowish alien. So, even if they had opted for live action actor and that design. The guy would have needed to put on yellow makup. That requiring to be threatening enough to fight gods on equal terms can be hard to achieve with just makeup. Snyder wasn't using steppenwolf as sideboss. But a main villain with threatening look. cgi is perfectly reasonable choice for that. As said, if cgi quality was the question i could have understood.This is a movie that's being sent to post production now.
