It's almost like this movie will be bad.
This is CGI in 2016.
>>69719229
Wow
>>69719208
literally no one but autist get this assblasted about cgi
>>69718276
his face sticks out like a sore thumb, all the live action stuff in the trailers looks really out of place next to all the CGI
>>69719229
This literally looks like fucking Total War: Middle Earth or something.
How shit.
>>69719229
The hobbits CGi was rushed, with some entire scenes being "finished" a few weeks before release.
Warcraft has been in post production for around 2 years now.
>>69719280
Looks like shit
>>69718276
looks like there on a stage with a backdrop
>>69719380
And it'll still look like a fucking cartoon.

Reddit is not even bad, I think we can learn something from them.
>>69719381
can you do better?
>>69719720
No, why? It. Looks. Like. Fecal. Matter.
My friend is obsessed with WoW and he actually thinks this movie will do great. He thinks that 1: most people know about this movie (they don't) and that 2: most people will see trailers for this movie and think 'Holy fuck I need to see this movie!'.
>>69719661
This fuck
>>69719757
Talk about delusional.
Why didn't they make the fucking diablo movie first?
The WoW episode of South Park will be more entertaining than the entire movie.

WHAT THE FUCK WAS PETER THINKING?
>>69718276
jesus it looks terrible
>>69720091
It would be 90 minutes of hellish carnage. Amazing.
>>69720363
only thing not terrible about this movie is the cg amigo
>>69719380
Well, don't forget the Hobbit had a high frame rate. That shit made the CGI stick out like a sore thumb.
>>69720583
The green screen effects are horrific.
>>69718276
To bad for you all the early screenings praise the CGI and effects so your last ditch effort to shitpost the quality of the effects just comes across as pathetic
>>69720841
you must be talking about the first trailer. they've finished compositing already and the CGI has greatly improved as you can see by the new footage
>>69718461
birds have been trivial to CGI since 2001.

Warcraft could be the ugliest, most poorly shot and visually incoherent film ever made and lots of people would still defend it.
What kind of backwards logic does it take to flip half-assing something into a merit?

How long is it going to take for you cucks to get over that the effects are good and your just a shitter?
movie will still bomb though.
>>69721202
the splicing of real footage into the video game cutscenes just make the video game cutscenes look all the more ridiculous.
Even when there isn't live action to make the CGI look ridiculous, it still looks bland and uninspired.
Why are they using real humans? They look so out of place next to these prodigious, almost cartoon-like orcs. I thought humans in warcraft were supposed to be larger and musclebound supermen too?
>>69721264
only male humans look like mr.olympia
>>69721264
theres probably something about how humans didn't turn themselves into super-big-huge-meat-men until after getting their shit pushed in during the first war.
Of course we know the actual reason was warcraft started development as a warhammer video game and there isn't (wasn't) much difference in size between humans and orcs.
>>69721264
No humans in wow are buff but Orcs are still way bigger then them
>>69721370
Yea but that seems to be the same for orcs as well. In OP's pic there looks to be a female orc on the far right and she is fairly small.
>>69721388
Interesting; I only ever played WoW so I don't know much about the lore or early story
>>69721394
Yes, I remember that, but I also thought the size difference to be much smaller. Live action humans compared to those CGI orcs looks almost ridiculous.
>>69719175
Underrated
>>69721264
It's funny because the orcs in the movie are larger than in the games.
Double retarded because in-game humans are larger than normal, but film-humans are exactly normal.
So it's as if there was double the size difference between humans and orcs in the movie.
I really don't get it. I would have thought the first thing they'd try in the movie was give everything more realistic proportions, but they've also kept the ridiculously large weapons and armour.
CGI for characters or large moving models (space ships whatever) rarely ever holds up, especially with time. People gush all over films like The Jungle Book and Dawn of Planet of the Apes, but everything in those films still looks CGI and not real, it still looks like for me at least I'm watching a cartoon.
The problem is as well CGI ages incredibly poorly, I can't even watch the LOTR movies anymore because how bad the CGI looks, or the Matrix or whatever. What we think looks great today, will look fucking terrible in 10 years.
The hilarious thing is pre-CGI VFX still holds up incredibly well, go watch 2001 or Blade Runner or whatever and they still look fucking amazing. A film from 1968 has special effects that look better than most movies today.
>>69722389
Big CGI movies like this need to be made though to push the tech otherwise no developments will ever be made
>>69719170

This is deja vu.
>>69724196

>>69724277
>>Doesn't realize the same exact team
Obviously not since the CGI is terrible this time around.
The key people obviously work elsewhere now.

it's the one creature where the weird shiny/plasticy texture that cgi gives things actually works well.

you probably enjoy every capeshit release that comes out.
>CGI in The Force Awakens
Looked absolute shit.
They didn't even bother making any models
>>69719809

will never happen though
>>69724313
Go watch the panel with jones and the vfx dude.
>>69719715
>>69721264
Theyx probably want to avoid the uncanny valley and also having to market it as a cartoon.
Here they can lie and say it's a live action movie.
>>69724313
The CGI is groundbreaking on the orcs, you guys are just being retarded about it by looking at very nitpicky stills that you will never even notice while watching it on 4k with the story and action going on.
Taking a good shot from one and a bad one from the other is also framing it to suit your narrative when its very easy to see how some other shots rival if not surpass anything from Davy Jones.
>>69724416
Uhh Harrison Ford would like a word.
But maybe you're right and he didn't injure himself on a 1:1 replica of the Falcon.

The dumbest thing is that they made the humans smaller and the orcs much bigger than in the game
Shit makes 0 sense
>>69719170
Awesome resolution, I want those boots though.
>>69724347
long live the new flesh
A lot of what makes CGI convincing is movement more than looking photo-realistic in a still (though that helps). It's why Jurassic Park still looks good despite the dinosaurs being very obvious CGI. It's why I think the new Planet of the Apes movies will hold up because of the good CGI performances, no matter how badly the CGI ages.
>>69725052
That Avatar on the left looks utter shit desu.
The ape is gold though
Painfully obvious how bad it is. No amount of shilling can damage control this, sorry
>>69725076
Na'vi, not Avatar, Jake was the Avatar.
>>69719720
You need to learn when to respond and when not to. He was baiting.
>>69719381
Just seen this, CGI was sbsolutely great.
>>69719280
Actually looks pretty bad. The details are good, but overall he is far from looking realistic.
>>69724286
Eyes are a mix of the real footage and CGI.
Also ILM patented this shit as "virtual make-up" and stalled CGI development for a while.
>>69725076
Doubly impressive considering how difficult it is to do fur in CGI.
>>69718276
I refuse to believe OP didn't create this
>>69719229
there was a game, RTS,you could insert some cheatcode where you could make knights instantly (you was like God or something) and it was literally like this, uncannily so
Popolous,Warcraft, i cant remember...
Anyway, I honestly see some fat dude in some studio pressing ctrl+c and then ctrl+v(or even worse, just like in Total War)
>>69719757
shitty part is, everyone knows about WOW, nongamers began to play WOW, mothers,gurls, neighbours , that shit was a fucking killer app(12 mill monthly subs=they would earn some mad money if they just sold game for 60$ a pop, but they had 12$ monthly subscription+DLCs, this game made more money than Disney in its whole existence )
You know who will go and watch this movie , mostly folks who played WOW and later on maybe tried WC3 and didnt like it..
People who actually played WC1 &2 just dont give a shit anymore, they probably dont even know there will be a movie Warcraft..
>>69724823

Dawn of the planet of the apes is CGI Masterpiece. Especially the close ups with Caeser, you can see all the fine details and it looks so real.
People complaining about Warcraft's CGI only hate CGI in general
Warcraft got the best CGI we've ever seen together with Planet of the Apes and The Jungle Book
>>69718276
I like how this movie triggers /tv/ to no end. Gods of Egypt was the same CGIcrapfest and yet the shitposting about it was nowhere close to this.
>>69724286
they did it with a computer
>>69725871
I dont dislike the CGI, but it definately looks wierd when a live action actor is in the scene.
>>69719017
mmo isn't like the rts either
>>69718276
Why didn't they just make the people CGI too? It would look so much better.

>>69719017
>seven hundred dollars domestic
Yeah, sounds about right.

>>69725970

I hope you're reading that book anon.
>>69725910
But it looks good though, way mor realistic than capeshit and Avatar
https://youtu.be/_1KAZcf2cNA
Face the fact, Warcraft is pure kino
>>69726131
Holy shit that half second delayed reaction when he snaps his neck.
>>69726131
Slow down chief, I didnt say it looked bad, Im actually looking forward to it, I said it looks weird. The difference between the CGI and the live action is distractedly noticeable, its not bad CGI, but there is a clear distinction between whats real and whats CG here.
>>69719229
its actually done by ILM m8, which didn't do the hobbit. Weta Digital did the hobbit and dawn of the planet of the apes
>>69726285
Of course there is, because orcs doesnt actually exist in the real world
You're always gonna notice that fantasy creatures are CGI
>>69726082
I don't even read anon.
>>69725875
This movie really reminds me of gods of egypt, same cgi quality but this seems to have even more of it.
>>69718276
>everyone bitching about CGI
It's the least of their problems, look at this shit;
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u0wUao_EZ-U
Costumes and the green orc look cheaper than something from a fucking Doctor Who episode. This is a high budget blockbuster in the year 2016.
>>69726324
Accepting and acknowledging the fact doesnt make it not distracting. Theyve done a good job, but it looks very noticeable, I dont think they can get around that outside of making the whole thing CG so you dont see the juxtaposition of the real and CG stuff.
>>69726427
>This is a high budget blockbuster in the year 2016.
With 100mil budget? Is that considered high for a summer blockbuster in the year 2016?
>>69726324
You could still do this with make-up if you choose to not make the orcs twice the size of humans
>>69725934
Because then it would be classified as a cartoon and some people feel like adults can't watch cartoons.
And these niggas are trying to make money.
When's the last time you saw a 100% animated success in the west that was aimed at older audiences than year 10 olds?
Every forray into animation aimed at teenagers or adults has been a failure in terms of box office. Pic very much related.
>all that shit at the time about her becoming the first virtual actress
>>69718276
Is that the cinematic from warcraft 3?
>>69726461
Nah. It's lower than most Disney animated movies.
Still nothing to sneeze at.

I honestly can't tell is Warcraft's CGI looks amazing or awful. It's an anomaly.
>>69727128
Orcs look good, it's the rest of the CGI that looks really bad, combined with awful photography.
>>69727053
The green screen and laser eyes ares hit, but to be fair flying is notoriously difficult to pull off.
What are good movies with flying?
Chronicle?
I can think of exactly 1 scene in Man of Steel where I thought it was good, but it was good in an eerie way.

>>69727147
>What are good movies with flying?
Iron Man flying scenes.
>>69725162
Are they? I heard an ILM guy say every pixel is CG.
>>69726907
If every episode of AoS had the production highs of this it would be a great show.
This should be the standard, unfortunately time and budget prevents this. One suggestion is to move it to Netflix, but that only solves the TIME problem, Netflix shows still operate on small budgets for necessary quality CG like the webm.
We will see how they handle Iron Fist.
>>69724877
for you
will the price of good cgi ever go down or will our increasing expectations not let this happen?
The problem isn't necessarily the CGI. You can create immersive and evocative stories and worlds with pretty shit CGI providing everything else that makes a normal film good is present (script/editing/performances etc).
The problem is compositing CGI in with reality, particularly in scenes which are mostly CGI with a few practical elements. Matching lighting in particular is an area where most movies fall down because if you're trying to make filmed footage of an actor fit a CGI scene that took thousand of hours to render you're trying to apply three dimensional processes to what should be an incredibly complex object but which you only have a 2D cardboard cut out of.
>>69727085
>his hand is as big as her head

They fuckin nailed it. Also, Rhaegal and Viserion's CGI is amazing in season 6.

It's pretty close to PS4 quality. Play Uncharted 4 if you don't believe me.
>>69728078
What do you think? :^)

The griffin has possibly the best textures, the sword looks a little too vibrant and though it is an in action still, I can't suspend my disbelief that the human guy looks like he's been dropped into a cartoon. Not even hating, it just doesn't look right.

There will only be Humans, Dwarves, Orcs, and Draenei

Fantasy shit has been around and dying since Lord of the Rings. There's all sorts of neo fantasy movies like Jack the Giant Slayer and the snow white shit. This movie really should have come out around 2008, when the game was still around it's peak.

The movie coming out now is a reaction to the game's decline in popularity. They didn't need it then; it's being used now to expand the franchise, exploit new markets of things like merchandise, maybe a television program, more movies, and on and on. WoW has done it's job, they have mountains of capital, now it's time to put that money to work on something else. Hearthstone has also been an excellent money maker for them, and Overwatch will certainly make money even if it doesn't have the legs of TF2 (then again, maybe it will).
This movie looks like some kind of risky boondoggle because you're not seeing the big picture.

You're a big guy

In 2008 it would have been your typical video game movie, just to milk money from the success/popularity of the game. I prefer this since it is in the works for a while by a decent director who wanted to do this. Maybe it is not good, maybe it is but at least they put some effort. We will see in a week I guess.

Fucking this. How did they get away with using the skyrim dragons?

And high elves. More than enough if you ask me for a first movie.
