The Joker was the big guy all along...
I don't have an image but on the DVD features; the entire end scene with all the camp being demolished was half practical and half miniature
>hardly any green screen
Also the aliens had lots of practicals done too
FUCK YOU HATERS! Whether you didn't like this movie for the story or casting; movies like this still actually put in the work to produce realistic looking content compared to Jurassic World - that is just a big CGI turd
I had no fucking idea the car chase scene in Dark Knight was miniature until I found out last month.
HOLY SHIT NOLAN!
>>70929489
well, I always gave the movie props for this.

Nolan is a big fan of practical effects and classic film techniques like rear screen projection. Pretty much most of the props, spaceships, etc in Interstellar were all practical effects
>>70929206
This always makes me wonder why there wasn't more practical work on the gungans. Some minor CG enhancements would have been way better.
>>70929673
can't believe they CGI'd all miniatures

Hollywood is filled with fucking retards
>>70929856
This is pretty much what happened with Star Wars prequels that prequelfags won't admit - most of the miniatures were used only for reference and replaced by CGI anyways in the final movie because Lucas found motion-matching cameras tiresome.
>>70929614
>>70929673
They also used practical effects in jurassic world and other recent movies.
What is it with cgi-ing all over it? having it practical in the first place seems pretty pointless to me, if you plan to shit on the movie with ugly cg anyway
>>70930030
water+miniatures = destroyed illusion
>>70929980
Does Hollywood nowadays have any idea how cheap and fake CGI looks or do they just do it because of laziness and because it's quicker?
How has nobody posted some of the most realistic practicals ever from movie Videodrone
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=abFI9YTIW1U
>>70930043
yeah that entire pod racing stadium was miniature until Lucas decided to CGI it... WHY
>>70929692
Initially they were going to CGI only his neck, and face, but it was more expensive to do that than make him entirely CGI, so they went with the cheaper option.
and honestly probably for the better, jar jar was so shitty looking, I can only imagine how bad an actor with a cgi face would have looked like
>>70930237
awww maaaaan

>>70929614
I wonder if the original camera negatives (pre-filtered versions) still exist? You could essentially go back and get rid of the stupid look that Lucas gave the film that made everyone ignore the good model work.

When filming Titanic, Cameron decided to build the models upside down because then he could just film them just by walking around with camera (and then invert the image later) and this method gave his shots great mobility. Also, it was easier to set up lights this way.
>>70931004
Gotta say that deadpool has one of the best costumes out there.
Pacific rim had some neat practical stuff.
the cockpits were all practical,
the mako flashback was actually a big set that was designed to shake as the monster walked, and even had the dumpster in the alley set up to crumple as it was smashed by the monster. the only CGI in that flashback was actually the kaiju, which was neat.
although special mention goes to the fact that the CGI monsters were designed specifically so they would look like a dude in a suit practical effect.
del taco loves his practical effects
In Aliens, scenes with miniature vehicles were all filmed in 48 fps and then slowed down twice to make the toys appear heavier and less floaty.
The views in the windows were simply screens playing a movie with 0.5x speed.

Is there anything in kino that screams out 'pathetic virgin' sucj]h as this?
I was on a date with a guy who once talked at least 10 minutes straight whining about The Thing(2011). God, what a creep. I had the last laugh in the end as I ordered Lobster and champagne and left him with the bill. I also saw me have sex with one of his friends in the bathroom at the houseparty for his birthday. His face was a picture lol, you could actually see the heartbreak in his eyes.
Always reminds me of pic related haha.
Why are men so pathetic?

On Moon (2009)
"So we used model miniatures, we built a piece of lunar landscape about 30 by 40 feet, not much bigger than this room actually. And we had sort of these Tonka trucks style models that we were dragging across the landscape with fishing line. We had an amazing company called CineSite, and they were able to clean up all of the stuff that I was able to shoot in live action. But it was really that hybrid of shooting as much as I could in camera and then being able to work on top of it afterwards, which really gave us the kind of unique look that I think we’ve got. And allowed us to make something that didn’t feel like a little independent film that was stuck in one sound stage."

i enjoyed this movie
i like it for what it is, a dumb excuse to have the predator and the alien beat the shit out of each other.
the entire alien vs predator franchise is dumb like this, you can't expect the movie to be any different.
the great effects were just a neat bonus
now the second one was truly horrible, because they gave it the shittiest story they could think up.
it's just a lame and forgetable horror flick, that has aliens and a predator shoehorned in.
at least the first one was about the alien and predators, instead of them being stand-ins for any other monster.
and the action squences can't save it, unlike it's predecesor, because those were pretty shit too.

I was going to ask why they would cover his eyes if they were just going to CGI over him anyway.
But then I realized that probably is the reason. Everyone would look at the stand-in's face and then half a second later remember they were supposed to be looking at the hat, so they covered his eyes so they didn't have a bunch of takes ruined by people acting at Jar-Jar's neck.
Well, ruined in Georgie's eyes at least.

Still probably my favorite alien design. Maybe even creature.
I dont know if im the only one but it kinda makes me sad when i see some of these and I am surprised that its practical because these days almost everything is CG not that i have a problem with it, when its used properly it makes a good scene look amazing but when its used half arsed just because they couldnt be bothered doing it looks terrible. Actors that are willing to go the extra mile for a role and the directors and crew that a willing to spend months building models and sets and doing take after take to get it right are the only people that seem to care about making good films for every one else its just a cash grab and it kill the possibility of any new kino
