I have a saying for these on-stage FX gadgets: -Could be cool to have, but a real shame if it's really necessary."

Re: That some stage shows and performances sometimes can be "sub par", (script, directing and acting)
so producers, directors and fellow techies at times tries to cover up "The Embarrassing Secret" by hauling in FX onstage.
Panic all over: -The more - the merrier, the newer (untested), promising gear the better seems to be "the method"...

When the show (consequently) bombs at the box office there's always a few technical problems/ staff to try to put the blame on.

But then it's just me, seeing this happen a few times too often, now trying to retire from the business after 35 yrs...

Yeah, sometimes when I watch a good movie from several years ago I realize that many high dollar movie productions these days rely too much on CGI and not so much on acting and a good script. "Special effects" when overdone, which is usual, gets tiring to watch.
