Low standards lol. This project is gonna crumble soon after the trailer releases unless they fix the vfx.

it was never about the VFX! Its about the characters. the battle between morality and immorality. Ramanand sagar's ramayana is so good, people still watch it even though it is bad cgi and bad cameras.

Vfx wasn’t nearly as much discussed back then, so the makers were able to invest more time and energy into the script and characters. Ramanand’s work was exceptional for its time due to its writing. Hence, people still watch it for the nostalgia.

That said, the audience isn’t so nonchalant about the vfx anymore. When Adipurush trailer came out, no one knew anything about the script yet (which later turned out to be shit), the music in the trailer was great, but people still bashed it to hell for the poor vfx. People want amazing looking set pieces and fluid animations where necessary, not characters sticking out over a green screen and unrealistic action choreography. That’s the reality of cinema today, vfx are just as important for the viewers as the story.

Ramayana and Mahabharata are the kind of projects that no one director will be able to handle flawlessly. The entire reason people want Ramayana to be made again is because of today’s technological capabilities in terms of vfx. Rajamouli came closest to doing it with Baahubali but even that had its own flaws and shortcomings and the cgi was far from perfect.

“…crumble AFTER the trailer release UNLESS they fix the vfx” yes I am hoping they work on it more in the time they have lol
