Wonder movies in Civ7 are a bit disappointing.

Wonder movies are one of the things I love most about Civ6 compared to Civ5, so I was pretty excited to know they are coming back to Civ7.
However, putting aside the obvious fact that wonder movies in Civ7 are a lot less smooth due to the drastic reduction in number of frames compared to those in Civ6, why do these health bars have to ruin my shot :(
Ok, thank you for listening to my rant.
 
They are intentionally made to look stop-motion as part of the diorama-inspired aesthetic.
 
For some reason, they stutter very much for me. Everything else works really fine performance-wise, but as soon as one of these starts playing…

Some of the stop-motion shots are very nice though, e.g., for the Gate of All Nations.
 
Considering how detailed these are and how many more models this game has due to all the unique appearances, I think the reduced frames are understandable.
The health bars are annoying tho, I hope they fix that soon. It's also so nice otherwise getting a nice close-up sweeping view of my cities, wish we could see things from angles like that in-game.
 
I am an admin on the wiki and just want to get a good screenshot to post there, and now I realize it is almost impossible to do that for Modern wonders. There is too much clutter around the Modern age.
 
How sweet it would be if these were an actual movies still? You can already see the wonder building up during turns, then it starts from the beginning again later to show the player how it went. Silly.
 
Also, there is currently no known way to turn off the Wonder name and the quote to have a screenshot of just the wonder itself, like in the Leader First look vids, right?
