Who is the best CGI character to ever appear in film?
My vote goes to Davy Jones.
>>70326164
Neytiri
>>70326164
Looks like a PS2 tier video game.
>>70326223
NES tier sprite.
CGI, not even once.
Gollum
I wish davy jones was my dad
Then at least he'd have a reason to hit me
Being angry at the sea, and not his lad :(
>>70326223
>youll never have a giant blue alien feline waifu
fuck
>>70326379
Hopefully with strides in virtual reality, we'll live the dream as old men.
>>70326379
The orcs in the new Warcraft film look realer than real life
My vote is on them!
>>70326265
This
>>70326265
agreed
>>70326164
>13 fucking years ago
>looks twice as good as the CGI characters in TFA
Can someone explain this shit?
Smug
>>70327647
Was this guy CGI, or did they manage to make a practical effect look like shitty CGI?
realer than real life
>>70326223
what xbox game is this?
>>70327743
That's Simon Pegg
>>70326164
AoU RDJ.
>>70327767
LOOK AT THE TOP OF HIS HEAD
>>70327767
wait till you see
>>70327647
this was really crazy, for a character with so many close-ups it really looked like shit given their budget
how did they make this shit? and in fucking 1997??
realer than life tbqhwyf
>>70326164
gotta agree, i just watched PotC a few days ago again, and davy's cgi is great
>>70326164
Are we judging the CGI or the character themselves, or a combination of the two?
If it's just CGI, Chappie was incredible.
>>70327647
You're wrong
Dobby from Harry Potter.
>>70327825
nah, just a box
>>70327961
wait a second chappie was cgi?
>>70327896
No way, that's CGI?
>>70327849
fucking metzen
>>70327925
Helps that Bill NIghy's acting is fucking ace, he steals the show every time as Davy
without question
amazing work desu
>>70326164
15 years later and he still doesn't look dated
>>70327961
>Chappie
Thanks for reminding me I wasted 13$ to see that fucking turd.
>>70326164
What I wanna know is: how come no fucking movie has come close to PotC level of CGI still?
>>70328049
This.
Reaches uncanny valley at times, but it's a quite realistic troll.
Golumn from The Lord of the rings.
>>70328068
Was it really that bad?
Why?
>>70328038
Realer than realer life
>>70327825
They had to chop down 10 trees to make enough apple boxes Iron Manlet to be as tall as Cap.
>>70328093
It was really just okay if you can vibe with the cheesiness but, definitely not worth paring money to see
Davy Jones is definitely a pretty good C.G.I. character.
Best CGI character right here.
>>70328093
The acting was garbage, the story was shit, and the dialogue was absolute edgy-cringe. Even the sets were retarded and had stupid edgy things written on the walls. I remember people in the audience was laughing at some parts that weren't meant to be funny, and groaning.
>>70328037
true, the part about the cgi that impresses me the most is the blending with the backgrounds, even during daylight davy jones doesn't look out of place so to speak
>>70327743
Practical face/body as a base, CG'd facial movement
Christopher Johnson.
>>70328336
Yes
>>70328179
With the budget they had, it was impressive
Here's a list of C.G.I. characters for reference. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:CGI_characters
>>70328018
>>70328018
It's a puppet you idiots
>>70327701
Someone should reverse that and shoop the frog hand in.

All the characters from Beowulf.
>>70326223
What vhs is this
>>70327767
I didn't know there was a new Shrek movie
>>70326164
There is something great about Davy Jones and im not entirely sure what it is.
Maybe it's the way his little face tentacles are always doing things and enforce some of his emotions by reacting to what his character is feeling. Maybe its the way his face and upper lip perfectly matches the wet lisp Bill Nighy uses for this character especially when he puts emphasis on a words and seems to almost spit them out.
Rest of those movies can go fuck themselves but this character is still good.
>>70328179
Colossus is friggin awesome as a character in comics, cartoon, and deadpool
>>70328243
>>70328336
is it easier to CGI non-humans? one has rubbery skin and one has a shell, that probably helps right?
The only right answer.
>>70328179
wasn't that 3 different dudes
Actor plays balon greyjoy
>>70326790
Second. Pretty friggin old and still looks fantastic
>>70327647
Every time I think about maybe rewatching force awakens I remember that little shit and how the movie completely stopped dead. Who came up with that character as the way to advance the plot and why? Seriously so lazy
>>70330275
get out degenerate furry
>>70330275
this. hands down. not even memeing
there have been a lot of good CG characters, but the way this bunny (and every other character in Zootopia) moves. The fur flows so realistically.
How'd they do it, /tv/? Did the Jews tap into their baby foreskin black magic?
Maurice
>>70331032
Why do these monkeys have such fucked up faces? Are they mutated or something?
>>70328074
top kek
>>70326265
this
>>70328336
This is the only good answer.
A fucking bug alien made out of special effects that doesn't even have a voice actor. And yet you still somehow care more about this big fookin prawn than the main character.
>>70326223
I wanted both of these shit faces to die.
That race traitor and the jungle bitch.
They all deserved to get nuked
>>70329987
It seems more realistic because you don't have a basis of judgment like you would a regular human being.
Hagrid
T-1000Optimus Prime
>>70326289
i want to poster of this to tell me what the fuck does it mean
>>70327825
>>70328113
>>70328001
Why lug a man-maker around when you can just have shoes + cuban heels?
>>70327988
no he is not, look at the detail in OPs picture. I havent even seen the pirates movies but i will say that must have looked amazing in the theater.
TFA was utter shit that knows its shit because billions of people will go see it strictly because its star wars. face the facts kid.
>>70330878
Disney just got lucky, I think the special effects guys were forced to work overtime or some illegal shit.
>>70327988
You're retarded.
>>70326164
How often do you recreate this thread?
>>70331032
fuckin this. still cant believe its fake.
>>70326223
Why are all those faces of those guys so fucking punchable? Why? The smug eyes?
I still don't know how the fuck it looked so good
Just being all slimey wouldn't make him look that fucking good
How?
>>70328062
I'd have to go with this, it really still looks good, by far the best aged cgi ever
>>70337708
>>70337963
Magic
I think Davey Jones and Caesar are pretty close.
>>70328062
>>70328087
>>70338129
He looks like shit, honestly. One of the worst parts of the movies.
>>70339049
Narnia's special effects are underrated. They did a great job throughout the franchise.
Hispower.
>>70330878
I think it's because they used Bill's real eyes. Cgi eyes are still hard to master and bad ones can make the cgi date rapidly.
>>70338154

He looked so good in the Hobbit. Shame about the over saturation of CGI though.
