It applies to a lot of special effects too. Many — probably most — special effects are striving to look organic. For example, did you notice that half of Titanic was shot in front of a green screen? Were the special effects in the Adventures of Superman TV series better because their chromakey work was more noticeable?
It isn't that the special effect doesn't have an impact, but that you don't specifically notice the effect because it blends seamlessly into the rest of the film.

It's now normal for standard-issue comedies and dramas to be chroma keyed, comped, etc: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=clnozSXyF4k https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=clnozSXyF4k https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WhN1STep_zk https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WhN1STep_zk
- baddox 13y ago> For example, did you notice that half of Titanic was shot in front of a green screen? Okay, I guess it depends what you mean by "notice." I certainly was aware that much of Titanic was shot in front of a green screen. No matter how photorealistic special effects become, it's often fairly obvious what's real and what's not.
