People who claim he doesn’t use CGI probably haven’t seen inception or interstellar.
What do you mean? They didn't actually navigate through the time dimension?
You mean the didn't actually generate a 1000 foot wave?
Next your gonna tell me they didn't even fly a space ship.
Isn't the point that's all been with special effects and not CGI in the past?
how did he do the endless spinning top?
His production team built one that keeps spinning for longer. Something to with it's shape. It's been a long time since I read about it.
Sometimes it's pretty straight forward to just do stuff for real.
They could have made an indefinitely spinning one by sticking a ring of copper wire and running power through it while making the top magnetic, building a type of brushless motor.
