it might be helpful to think of it in terms of like what is the end goal? is it trying to be stylized or verisimilar? DOOM doesnt pretend to accurately represent real life like when an imp explodes into a puddle of pixelated goo.

something that tries and fails to be verisimilar evokes a more negative reaction in us than something that doesnt aim for naturalism or verisimilitude. nobody is mad at bugs bunny not being an accurate representation of a rabbit whereas something like the “live action” lion king remake was widely derided

EDIT: so like a way to think about “good” vs “bad” vfx is like, does it achieve its goals?
