I mean that quite literally. The environments, the costumes, it all looks so fake and exaggerated. These movies look like Episodes II and III. Too much green screen and CGI and not good CGI and green screen. I want to like these movies, but one of the biggest reasons I can't get into them is that they simply look fake and cheap. It takes you right out of the movie.

It takes you right out of the movie. Oh, ho! Now you've gone and stepped in it. It's one thing to make fun of DCEU in the context of a pro-Marvel rant, but it is quite another to speak ill of two universally beloved and adored classics such as Attack of the Clones and Revenge of the Sith, the latter being my favorite movie of all-time which means it automatically HAS to be objectively amazing and that nobody could possibly watch it and come to another conclusion. Now, everyone from both sides -- Marvel and DC -- is going to sweep in and unleash a tidal wave of scorn and derision out of love for the prequels and loyalty to George Lucas! C'mon, guys! Who's with me?! ... Guys? ... ... ... ... ... God damn it.

.... C'mon, guys! Who's with me?! the Force is with you, Colden. Essentially, there are 3 cineastic sins revealing that one is a clueless, babbling halfwit: People that fall for the Citizen Kane plot hole myth, 2001-ASO does not make any sense, and the abysmal "SW prequels are all CGI and 'splosions" myth.
As for the SW prequels, these were revolutionary at their time (late 90s) for their abundant use of the (back then) new CGI techiques, but their use of CGI are relatively modest compared to modern SciFi/action films.
Simple examples: most of the spaceships/vehicle in all three PT movies were models; compare this to Force Awakens (or any MCU movie for that matter): the spaceships were ALL CGI (no models used anymore today). In fact Phantom Menace used more models, miniatures and sets than the entire original trilogy. There are countless articles on this, the truth is out there, folks, you just need the mind to process it.
Just check out this Jedi Council (the leading SW board with 250k+ members) thread where fans have painstakingly carried together a lot of precious and rare photographs (2,989 posts):
boards.theforce.net/threads/practical-effects-in-the-prequels-sets-pictures-models-etc.50017310/
Or this short vid entailing some documentation merit:

Not a single response attempted to defend the movie. These DC/Lucas lovers aren't worth the time. They don't even put forth decent arguments and are trolling about 95% of the time.

Your uninformed prequel bashing was annihilated by facts and evidence. Further arguments are unnecessary.
Per usual, your house of OP crap collapsed even before you could end your rant. If you were not such a sorry little man already, I would almost be tempted to pity you, almost.

Doesn't someone normally talk about the "unfinished CGI" on these threads? Anyway, while that is a sketchy shot, I just generally accept it as a stylistic decision; as everyone involved keeps saying, this is a Snyder movie. There were a lot of ropey moments in the climax for Wonder Woman but it didn't take me out of it.

Its actually not uncommon for trailers to have unfinished visual effects. Even in the early trailers for Peter Jackson's King Kong, that monkey didn't look nearly as good as he did in the finished product. I guess unfinished effects are becoming more and more noticeable as time goes and the finished versions look better and better.

Why don't you do it more often?

MCU movies look like cartoons. MoS, BvS, and JL have some of the best looking CGI.

It's so disappointing.

One of the things that has turned me off to the DCEU is how horrible the look and sound of the movies are. The score, especially, is terrible. exactly. They are overloaded with these big over the top action scenes and explosions, which in and of itself is a problem, but then to top it off the look and sound so....... FAKE. It's so anti-climatic.

Feel how you want about DC/Marvel, but the score for MOS and BVS is better than any MCU score

I didn't even have to go far back into your posting history to find several examples of your nonsense:
