Don't exaggerate. Even the Last Starfighter had better cgi than PS1

Tron Legacy was absolutely gorgeous
>>64734323
Oh fuck yes! Love that movie and its looks.
>>64734323
this. people complained about the obvious CGI Jeff Bridges, but the rest of the movie was great and visually stunning.
I just saw fellowship again and I was expecting this guy to look worse, because the kraken aged a bit, but this scene holds up so well. It's still one of the coolest things I've ever seen.
>>64733673
I remember liking that too, despite not being able to remember what it sounds like.
>watching matrix 3 for the first time in the cinema

It's still pretty good I think.

Agreed wholeheartedly.
>>64732867
What Sega Genesis game is this?
>>64734323
I remember watching making-of vids and stuff, and at one point I believe they mentioned that they could perfectly render the ground on the game grid for example, that on The Grid a lot of things should be perfectly smooth because they're computer generated... but it looked fake. In a bad way. So even though from a world-building point of view it didn't make much sense, they textured it to look a little scuffed, a little scratched, like something that may exist irl. I guess a lot of that was knowing the limitations of what the audience will buy. (That's also why filmmakers need to add absurd sound effects because the sounds things actually make sound fake on film. Weird stuff.)
That plus it used a lot of practical effects. EL tape in the suits, actually building the End of Line club, stuff like that.

Unfair comparison of TFA to Antz. Anz was Dreamworks first animation movie and still playing catchup to Pixar.
>>64735598
Kek
>>64735150
Both of these completely took me out of the movie.
>>64734858
>oh wait, today's the day we shoot on some shitty rocks off Ireland! Make sure the helicopter is fueled for the completely out of place air shot!
I like TFA, but I will admit that aerial shot was the only time the immersion lost me. But that was the final shot so big whoop
>>64736087
Same here. I don't really know why these two characters in particular was so off putting. They were far from the only cgi creatures in the movie.
Smoke reminded me too much of Gollum btw. The way his mouth moved and such.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=th401DUh8fw
>>64736223
The difference between them and the other CGI is that they're the main focus of the frame for most of their time in the film.
Seriously, Maz was the main focus for like 4 straight minutes. MAYBE you should have used a fucking practical effect.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6w6FV8P7HXg
Daily reminder that the guy who directed this became a transvestite hooker.
Gollum is timeless. All the CGI in the LOTR is extremely well done really, except maybe like a shot or two during the Battle of the Hornburg everything looks amazing even today.

>>64735283
Hey George
>>64732925
objectively correct answer
>>64733383
What shit taste you have.
>>64736451
I'm amazed Gollum hasn't aged yet. Most of the CGI in The Lord of the Rings haven't. There are a few things here and there that look funky when you freeze frame it but otherwise it's aged very well.
>>64732925
The ONLY answer
>>64736736
Guys. It has aged horribly. The battles look terrible. You're completely wrong.
>>64736301
It doesn't help that she is surrounded by practical effects
Spawn's was ok for the 90s
>>64736470
Why is this a meme?
>>64735283
I was not aware, Maz was a Neimoidian?

Legolas going up the Mumakhil...
>>64732867
Jesus fuck.
I remember it being bad, but it wasn't that bad, right?
Right?
>>64732867
i dunno sempai, star wars had some great cgi
>>64736867
Because it sounds funny.
>>64736522
Why hasn't everyone experienced the glory of Auralnauts' version yet?
>>64736451
It's also due to the 24 fps motion blur rendering. When Jackson switched to 48fps in the Hobbit the renders have a shorter trail of blur and less grain, something in the renders doesn't sit right. And when there's faster camera panning in CG backgrounds, the conversion to 24 fps gives of a jerky quality.
>they made two old men looks like they were actually having an epic fight
>>64734323
Such a tragedy that we won't ever get a sequel
>>64737493
why does mace keep spinning though
>>64732867
>>64737122
This looks realer than real, how do they do it?
>>64737607
I don't know why anyone spins in these kind of fight scenes. It happens in loads of movies, and it doesn't make sense.
>>64737493
>tfw you realize the star wars movies are just cgi test reels that helped revolutionize computer editing and animation, nothing more
Spawn, especially the scenes in hell
>>64737607
it's a good trick
it allowed him to get the high ground until anakin committed treason
>>64733383
No they dont they look like actual rifles, not the flimsy shit you see in TFA.
>>64732867
>his came ou more han 10 ears ago
>>64737717
because a real sword fight is just two guys making lots of feints, trying to get the right distance and tempo to nick the opponent's arm and disable him. it's kind of slow and funny looking until the killshot, which happens too fast or the eye to follow. wouldnt translate well to a movie like this
>>64732925
>y'all niggas in the wrong lagoon
I hear good things about Dragonheart, would anyone recommend it?
>>64737493
>tfw Mace performs a perfectly timed/choreographed move and Sheev just ducks and points.
It's almost like Sheev was trying to show how shitty this movie is.
/r/ing that guy hopping over the counter
>>64733383
DC-15S for life mah nigga
gif is bad quality but the way it moves
the fucking sound effects and his heat up thing is so damn cool
>>64741039
Those sound effects were homebrew btw. They took a cinderblock, attached a chain to it, and dragged it on a wooden floor while following it with a microphone.
also Godzilla's iconic roar is a leather glove rubbing against a violin string.
>>64734323
I agree. I really liked how clean and perfect everything in the Grid looked.
I can also almost feel the cold aura from the blue lights and the warm, comfy atmosphere from the orange/red ones. Did anyone else feel this? Something about this movie felt really isolated. The orange ones were a nice, warm contrast.
>>64737493
My favorite part of this is the first couple seconds. I love the way Sheev looks as he stalks Dindu out into the hall.
>>64738678
>8 years ago
How did they do it lads?
>>64733075
I still remember being in awe with the Final Fantasy movie with all the individual hair movement n shit, which was still total crap. The new PotA movies are a testament to how far we've come since then, as far as CGI is concerned at least.
>>64732867
The new planet of the apes movies, fur on one ape can be a nightmare but fur on many apes?

>Holy crap my eyes are on fire
>Why did I decide to look directly at the sun.
>>64732867
>>64742025
That movie disappointed the hell out of me. I loved the first one and this one was just so average. Definitely took it in the wrong direction I think. Still hopeful for a comeback with #3 mind you.
>>64736451
>>64742025
Why does Serkis get all the best CGI?
>>64742093
What have they done here? The lighting is so off. It looks like about 12 different shots composited on top of each other.
>>64742164
>implyingGENERAL
>>64736223
Prolly cuz he was played by Gollum
>>64742170
>>64736451
As a kid I thought Gollum was played by a really fucked up midget in makeup. I also thought Yoda was a midget in a cgi costume
>>64742229
The CGI is only passable there because there was no reason to make it that good, the thing was kept in shadows the entire time. Just you wait for the sequels and hope that he is still a giant
And stop forcing your shitty unfunny meme.

Too bad about the weird collapsing structure physics. That looked bad even for its time
>>64742983
This. Always seem too much detailed and every single piece is sharp and in focus. It's just brain overload for me.
>>64732867
i actually thought the giant lizard riding was neat but good god everything else
I wasn't expecting it, that's for sure.
>>64741039
Cool fact: They had a guy set up a full-on simulation for the fire, which required oxygen, fuel, etc., but when they dropped him down the cave the wind kept extinguishing the fire.
>>64743532
I legitimately thought I was sitting down to watch a Disney movie.
And then that scene came on.
>mfw
>>64744170
can we analyze just how much of an underage faggot this person must be to use such a lazy and juvenile reaction image? Lets discuss this guys this shit is straight up embarrassing.
>>64735598
>>64738984
is that Michael Cera?
>>64744264
His reaction image may be shit, I don't really care, your autism however is disheartening, even here.
>>64744366
It really makes you think about who you are discussing film with in this shithole, I think at least 60%-70% of posters here are underage, and it really shows, especially with the prequel defending as of late.
>>64744382
That's a maymay tho. A shit maymay to be sure, maybe even worse than the "Abatap is good" maymay. Still, maymay.
For some. I think some genuinely are underage retarded prequel-loving /v/ crossovers. Shitting up every single thread.
I've been here since 08-09 and I can't even remember when I last had a serious film discussion. I actually feel kinda sorry for these fucks, because my taste in film was elevated by early /tv/. It was a shit board back then too, but at least you sometimes had good shit going on.
>>64737493
what does this face convey?
>>64737122
BRAVO RIZZI
>>64744464
Disgust
>>64738325
what is it
>>64744455
Old /tv/ is gone my friend, those days of serious film discussion no longer exist anymore. It's all shitposting, the sad part is that a lot of the people defending the prequels just turned 18 or something or are straight up underage and grew up watching them. Honestly that's what this board has devolved into.
>>64741039
this will be my favourite movie forever and ever
>>64741973
gorgerous, all movie was
>>64742278
I dont understand, why doing the clones in cgi?
>>64743150
pls get out of this thread
>>64744464UNLIMITEDPOWER
>>64744547
I don't even get the maymay though. We've been through 360 spins before this, but none so fast, and this one makes me think it's sincere. These fags actually do like the prequels. That would explain all the anti-RLM threads of late too. It's likely the result of /pol/tards and /v/ crossing over to shit all over TFA, giving the underaged fags the opportunity to come out of the woodwork and shit on it, while at the same time sucking on prequel cock.
It's sad to think about the fact that Sheev was a maymay not long ago an not something people did unironically.
>>64744264
Calm down pal. He probably gets his knob slobbed on the reg while you're batting a career 0 with the ladies due to your pedantry.
>>64732867
Discounting the faces, you'd guess the pic came out of the Clone Wars series.

I watched the leaked version also. Man it was weird as I thought it was for real. Anyone know where I can find that version again?
>>64744264
honestly fuck off to reddit you faggot.
>>64742680
Goddamn, why do so many movies look like shit compared to this today with their CGI?

>>64741520
ILM actually gave a shit when they worked on this movie
>>64732867
itt: OP has shit taste
>>64734637
I think it looks better because it's more Impressionistic, aka not so detailed, and a lot is left to imagination, this is generally the approach to good paintings aswell, implying details instead of rendering them out.
>>64746892
This is what made me hate the movie the most, the battles were one thing that the prequels did fucking great, despite not being as bad as every redditor wants to make you believe. The battle scenes with clone troopers were so cool and the order 66 cuts where they show all those different planets were such a little moment but built so much, that is what I loved about the prequels
>>64747732
Phase 2 Clone troopers are fly as fuck, if he means the reptile alone, then it's still alright, it's very well animated, too well for the rest of the scenery in a still frame
>>64736522
Am I the only who didn't really like EP4? It didn't click for me. Also, the length was ridiculous.
>>64739996
hahah
Based Sheev.
>>64732867
Powerful yet touching creature.
Based prequels.
>>64746860
Because they spent an absurd amount of money on the CGI in those
probably one of the least shitty examples of CGi.
