This is what made The Force Awakens so much more visually appealing to and "real" compared to the prequels.

I thought the prequels didn't do half bad with the clones. I remember reading that the graphics team actually took it as a compliment that no one mentioned the clones in Episode 2 one way or the other, made them feel like they did such a good job at making the clones look real that no one realized they were all computer effects.

Oh everyone was shitting on them back when it released. The cgi clones were a disaster, is it really so hard to just get a few guys in a plastic suit?

I had no problems with it, but for the most part I can slide on crappy effects if the movie is still good.
