The best way to make CGI look good is to make scenes dark so I don't know I can really fault anyone for that. People always bring that up about Jurrasic Park and the Trex scene, or Davy Jones in Pirates of the Caribbean, or Alien (which was a puppet I guess but same principle maybe?), and so on and so forth.
I mean I can fault them for it. There are plenty of great looking movies that have CGI in them and sometimes the CGI isn't perfect but often times movies will just be squint-inducing the entire time and the CGI isn't even that convincing, it's just that if you turn up the brightness you can tell it's super garbage with tons of blurry shit lines around it

Another thing that makes Avatar: The Way of Water impressive is that large parts of it are set in BRIGHT TROPICAL SUN and it still looks great.
