Why didn't TFA use practical effects for Maz Kanata.
CGI characters have only been done well in District 9.
Probably because they didn't have her design set in stone and she was a last minute addition.

I love that fucking movie.

That make sense, but it's a movie that's potentially make billions for them. A practical character would look more endearing/relatable and sell more toys.

All movies that can do practical effects like this should do this. Prac suit then cgi the face.

Same with Snoke
Couldnt decide so went with generic shit, Snoke and Maz almost look the same race in generic bald ugly forgettable freak department
>>67785237
because JJ is a hack

That would have been too much like the OT.

Thats pretty shitty. You'd think the overarching villain would be a design you'd finish pretty early into production.
But, Sheev did change from V to VI.

I think Snoke's hologram is a ruse and he is a normal human/alien.

Think they also felt some pressure to have at least one fully CGI character in a sequel to the prequels. Like 80% of the prequel characters and species where computer toons, there'd still be some of them around bringing down the general quality of the universe.
