Someone had to decide how the streams were going to look like in the new movie.
Probably "just like '84" may have been a requirement but those 1984 effects were very low fidelity compared to what is possible today (in terms of stream momentum, behavior, color depth, exposure, etc).
Now we have cgi that can present a more detailed view of what the proton streams are (were?) supposed to look like. I'm interested in how they made that decision.
I may be imagining things but to me:
In the 2016 movie they were presented a more pinkish hue of orange and were generated to show a relatively high momentum or resistance to direction change. In the new movie they appear to be a bit more erratic or lighter and more unpredictable in where they are going to go.
Or maybe the variation is too great in the scenes to make an assumption.

Do you agree with it? How do you think they should have done it?
