I think a weakness with the original trilogy (and the books too) is that Sauron is not established strongly enough as an opposing force. I agree the CGI is dated and often fake looking, especially in the Return of the King. There are great parts though but there is too much going on and they give videogame cutscenes vibes. Overall what happened (IIRC) was that Peter Jackson established a production company to make the CGI and he had to keep them in business so he gave them plenty to do in the 2nd and 3rd films. I guess also kids who don't understand the story, world, philosophies, and characters too much could then have a smashing time with the CGI.

the new eva in the mgs4 re-make looks like the japanese idea of what a good looking white woman looks like lol she looks like a final fantasy character.

Also: + Elves are supposed to extremely long-lived/immortal so their personalities reflect someone who has lived hundreds of years or more. They live like they have all the time in the world. They behave differently than humans and its a bit of trope in fantasy. Kate Blanchett did an amazing job (book accurate) as Galadriel imho, but you can see that if this version of Galadriel had her own show it would be really weird. She would speak slowly all the time (but have high impact words filled with meaning all the time), be all-knowing, and not run around with a sword. She would also be strange and baffling at times. This fan artist for the Witcher understands elves did a comic that illustrates their behavior here: CIRI, The Child of Destiny - Lady of the Lake (the-comic.org) The Galadriel in show is basically a human to me, and behaves like one.
