>some neckbeard wasted weeks of his life finding the ugliest frames from a seven hour trilogy so I now think the prequels are actually ugly
Is there a meme that needs to die more than this?
I just rewatched AOTC actually and god damn the Coruscant speeder/on foot chase is the slickest shit since Blade Runner.
I mean just look at this environment.
Leagues more interesting than TFA.
>>64954893
Lucas' command of colour is utterly sublime. He's up there with Minnelli.
The prequels had pretty good cinematography
>>64954893
>>64953778
Coruscant backdrops are my favorite stuff from star wars.
AOTC isn't that bad, if anything just watch the non-cheese edit
stunning
>>64955264
not sure if memeing or not but I love that shot.
I hate when neckbeards cherry pick the short ass frames from the beginning of the geonosis fight when the flying and the fighting actually looks incredible. I unironically didn't know the clones were all CGI until a year or two ago.

>>64955332
They have to isolate particular frames because it almost always looks fine in motion.

I like the 'colorful' side of the prequels
>>64953778
The prequels are fucking ugly most of the time. The CGi creatures have aged horribly. God the introduction to the pod racing scene is embarrassing to watch. Ps2 cartoony aliens everywhere.
>>64953778

It's stated in the DVD commentary and this sort of cringey video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KppHn7mC-mk
>>64955367
No it doesn't it looks way worse in motion. Why would cgi look worse in a still? Stills are what cgi does best, it's when things start moving that it starts to look really poor

This really isn't that hard of a concept to grasp.

But anon, literally anything can be reddit because reddit is bigger than 4chan and probably has people defending different opinions just as much as on here. That's why it's a shitty insult, because it's too vague and all-encompassing.
>>64953778
Coruscant stuff has always been top notch. Definitely my favorite parts of the prequels. I just love that planet so much, and I hope it gets featured in the new trilogy.
Overall though the prequels were pretty terrible, and the CGI has nothing to do with that.
>>64953778
Is this supposed to be the ugly frame? Only problem is it looks like a video game, no memeing here.
>>64953778

Fuck you. Look in the comments of your 5th link.
>>64956539
Video-game tier. Nothing has impact.
Here's another good illustration of the point about the planets in TFA. Takodana might as well have just been called Planet Lake-and-Some-Trees. It's got some nice on-location photography, but nothing about it is nearly exotic or interesting enough to justify its existence as a prominent locale in a $200 million Star Wars feature film released in the year 2015. It looks and feels basically just like Earth.
>>64956539
Oh fuck off. The fighting in the dust is GOAT.
>>64956415
>With all of its static shots
Static shots are patrician.
>where the camera hardly moves because the soundstage wasn't big enough
not at all true, most of their soundstages were huge.
and every single conversation being shot reverse shot?
Absolutely nothing wrong with that.
>>64956498
There is nothing worng with that background, and several others in the prequels look good, but with all of the convoluted CGI action going on on top of them, who cares?
>>64956577
Compare it to Kashyyyk from Revenge of the Sith:
Which one looks more like an alien world? Which image is more romantic and dream-like and evocative? Which one more embodies the goofy, audacious, inventive spirit of Star Wars?
And Kashyyyk is just one of NINE new, unique, imaginative planetary locations which appeared in just Revenge of the Sith alone (not counting Coruscant, Naboo, and Tatooine, which appeared in previous films). And this was a $113 million movie that came out in 2005. Again, compare that to the $200 million that it took to make The Force Awakens in 2015. Given these facts, the enormous deficit in visual inventiveness between the two films is both astounding and disappointing.
And it's not like this is due to a lack of ability on J.J.'s part. He's perfectly capable of conceiving and bringing to life the kind of weirdly beautiful alien environments which define a series like Star Wars. He accomplished this wonderfully at the beginning of Star Trek Into Darkness. That's the kind of thing I was hoping to see in this movie. Unfortunately, I just don't think that anything quite so quirky and off-the-wall was allowed within the seemingly narrow mandate Disney gave to J.J.
>>64956577
>everywhere must be exotic

>prequel babbies WILL defend this
>>64956577the only planet I knew the name of in TFA was Jakku. That's only because it was mentioned a whole lot. Fuck the worldbuilding in TFA
>>64955160
Attack of the Clones is the second worst of the series. Right behind Ep7 but ahead of Ep 1.
With that being said that final long tracking shot of Dooku sailing through all of those different areas after his escape ftom Genosis is pretty fucking based.
It makes you wish the movie would keep going where they would have to explore all of those different cool looking environments.

>>64956324
>Stills are what cgi does best,
Not exactly. A single frame that's rendered as stand alone and not a transition is good because it can be posed like on a photo. A frame in animation that's captured as a in-between is going to have motion blur.

I completely agree. The prequels kindled my imagination, TFA did not.
My least favorite thing about the prequels are the shiny, useless objects.
>The silvery SR-41 that Amidala escapes Naboo in
> The cloners on Kamino, and their architecture
>The palaces on Naboo
>The looooong chase scenes in traffic on Coruscant in AotC
>Dexter Jettster's 50s diner
None of them mean anything, they're just pretty because the CGI technology allowed it. The politics are pointless, but at least it could have meant something if it were better written. The shiny crap is just in the way, which makes it worse.

Obviously, prequel hating is complete bullshit. What actually happened is that the filmmakers came up with ideas that happened to interest them, and then did their best to get those ideas onto the screen using whatever method made the most sense. The main benefit of CGI being an option is that the PT filmmakers weren't limited in their imaginations--which is a good thing. Imagination is actually good. (A controversial stance in this day and age, I know.)
>>64956899
There is nothing wrong with that when in motion.
I watch ROTS all the time and that doesn't mess with my suspension of disbelief.
>>64956823
They changed it in Episode 3 though, but officers still stood out with their fancy armor.
And they got steam rolled by the Empire once sheev took power anyway
>>64956920
a lot of scenes were pure CGI but you couldn't tell because they looked so real, like the scene in the hanger with the TIE fighter, thats where most of the budget probably went

Incorrect. All of the stuff that would have been done with miniatures in the prequels was CGI (since TFA used no miniatures at all), and the vaunted alien costumes are shown for only seconds.
>>64957097
>how did all those scenes still manage to look fake?
They didn't. Practical effects automatically means it looks real.
>>64957097
They didn't.
You're just trying to save face by moving the goalposts.
>>64957097
The prequels have a sleek, shiny, 1940's-50's Flash Gordon aesthetic. It makes perfect sense, and I can't think of a single way it could have been executed any better by anyone. It's actually quite audacious, the contention that the PT's aesthetic is bad primarily because it isn't the same as the OT's. But it's also very unsupported.

This is what actual star wars video games looked like at the time:
>>64954893
The environments are so dull in the prequels. It's always long hallways with identical pillars, or in this case a long straight street with identical lights. All the concept artist looks like this as well.
>>64955264

>>64957229

>>64957252
That looks great.
So when are we allowed to say TFA was a good movie?
Do we wait for the next star wars and just shift our hate onto that?
Or do we wait until the one after?

>So when are we allowed to say TFA was a good movie?
Never. It's completely forgettable like your average Marvel flick.
>>64957113
It still looked real. There is nothing wrong with using CGI, but good CGI is not noticeable. In the prequels everything 'not there' stands out, you KNOW 80% of everything is made on a computer, and the stuff that isn't still looks like a video game for some reason.
A huge amount of TFA is CGI, but you don't notice because it's a lot better executed.

Kids don't know shit about my Shadows of the Empire, Jedi Knight II, and Dark Forces.
In Phantom Menace, Jar Jar steps on a piece of shit and it's insanely popular.
There's an immense amount of debate around Jar Jar getting shit on his foot. People have debated this for over a decade. Why does the shit-joke fascinate, while Abram's "powerful message of faith(?)" draws shrugs? The simple fact is that the shit-joke is extremely well-crafted. Lucas is so slick that people don't realize the full extent of the joke, even though it's burrowed into their psyches:
The part where Jar Jar actually steps on the shit is just the setup. The punchline comes at the end of the film, when Jar Jar steps on a corpse and it 'springs to life', beginning to fire randomly. This is precisely how Lucas defines "The Force": it is a piece of shit that attaches itself to you, terrifying you, indifferent to your concerns.
>>64957387

I'll never understand how "so dense" became a criticism.
A space opera having lots of detailed visual splendor is a good thing! Especially if you're trying to convey a lost golden age and a decadent civilization!
>>64957457
Yes. The technology was not there in the late 90's, which is why Lucas shouldn't have plastered his movies with CGI that was sure to look dated in less than 5 years.
>>64957451
The problem is TFA isn't bad enough to like ironically but not good enough to genuinely like. It's so painfully mediocre that there's absolutely nothing about it for /tv/ to meme about.

It looks pretty damn good for 2002 (actually 2001) CGI.

Nope, It looks like a video game.

The landscape shots are fine but the CGI looks fucking terrible on all of the characters. That takes you out of the movie when you have entire sequences of nothing but CGI.
This was only highlighter more in III where the landscapes looked even better and it made the CGI armies stand out even worse.

This has wonder and imagination while TFA is a heartless cash grab engineered by the biggest Jew in Hollyweird.

TFA tried to emulate the OT and at the same time distance themselves from George Lucas's vision so it ended up feeling like ANH remake with non of the magic real SW movies had.
>>64956635
>Which one looks more like an alien world?
Neither. But the TFA planet the name of which I don't remember looks like a real place, and not a video game cutscene.

Are you serious?
Is the butthurt about TFA that strong?
Jurassic Park and Tron have more fidelity than Star Wars and they came out 10 years and 20 years before Episode 2/3, respectively.
Lucas tried to do too much and it shows.

It is true though anon. I remember seeing this statistic about what the most visited site was before someone came to 4chan and which site was the one that most people left 4chan to go visit and after google reddit was second

I know I really felt my creative senses being tickled by all of that political talk and wooden faced characters sitting down and talking about space trading.
Prequels are a fucking bore. Too dull for kids most of the time, to ugly and infantile for adults.

Sorry I didn't bother to save the page mate. Either way go visit r/4chan and you'd see that there is obviously a giant overlap in reddit and 4chan users. This hasn't been a secret club for a decade famelogne you need to face the facts
>>64958237
Yeah no I guess I forgot what they were actually talking about, that's how interesting the dialogue is.
I always skipped these parts as a kid. Boring as fuck.
>>64958163
It does look bad.
>>64958177
Yes they do.
And you know why? Because they fucking fit.
The prequels basically pulled an N64/PS1 when they jumped to polygons. Most of those game aren't even playable because the graphics are glaringly bad. But 16-bit sprite art doesn't nearly have that problem.
Lucas overreached. But keep trying to sprinkle glitter on a pile of shit.

>>64958334
This. Lucas relied too much on the new technology, apparently not realizing it would look dated and ridiculous in the manner of a few years.
>>64958237
Did you by any chance watch ep I? Because that is space trading galore.

No. Everything looks like shitty CGI even if it's miniatures. All those buildings in Coruscant don't even feel real. Certainly not like a place you can visit.
>>64954596
It's really the only good part of that movie.
That andYoda's wizards duel.

Are there translated lyrics of that song? It sounds like they're singing about the desperation for the public's acceptance of the Special Edition changes.

>>64957999
I spent my childhood thinking Star Wars was about boring ass politics and angry old men because I'd only watched the prequels. They inspire no sense of wonder whatsoever.
>>64958613
I don't hate the prequels, but they are bad movies.

I grew up with them and they sparked my imagination much more than the OT.
>>64956615

Stop using that as an excuse without an explanation. George Lucas can write a good story and write some amazing lore but lord knows he can't film a scene for shit.
I want out of here.
I watched the original trilogy for the first time in 15 years
>Harrison Ford is kind of a shitty actor

There really is a fair bit of nostalgia in play when people talk about these movies.
>>64956643
People think the Ewoks live on Endor. Ewoks are never named in the movie, and they actually live on the planet's moon.

If you think there is not a disconnect for the audience when you place CGI soldiers right next to human actors close-up then...dude you're in deep. It's discrete and glaring. It takes you out of the movie.
There are countless examples of the direction of these movies just fumbling the ball when it comes to visual effects.
It's not that he used CGI. Plenty of movies used it before the technology was even mastered. The problem is he used CGI without care to the main rule of ALL visual effects: The audience should believe it.
The illusion wasn't broken looking back in hindsight. This is shit I noticed in theaters just like the Rock in the Mummy, the vampires in Blade 2, Spider-man's web-slinging in the original, etc.. Those other films at least had brief moments of those incongruities.
The prequels are LITTERED with them. The movie is built around them. It's their lifeblood and, sadly, only part of the reason so many people were disappointed.
But when you finish trying to pretend the visuals weren't bad you can make a new thread trying to force the idea that the characters and plot were good as well.
>>64958637
I feel bad for you. You clearly never enjoyed a classical education and didn't understand the importance of high politics from an early age because your parents and teachers never introduced you to Aeschylus, Sophocles, and Seneca.
>>64958736
>C3PO is the best character
Oh yeah the droid that has no character development at all throughout the entire franchise, best character, of course.
Fuck off

>implying he needs it

>Harrison Ford is kind of an shitty actor
If anyone is kind of a shitty actor it's Hamill in ANH. You can recognize moments in the OT were George's subpar writing and directing comes into play, but he had people to help him rinse out most of the shit. Several of the actors improvised their lines were George's original dialogue was cheese overload.
