Which version do you prefer and why?

CGI

both look bad for different reasons

>>64595754

If the puppet was designed to look like the Cgi version then that would be perfect

>>64595754
They're both shit

>>64595754
Both suck, star wars is gay

>>64595754
cgi because the puppet looks retarded.

The puppet was fucking horrible. I can't believe that got in the movie.

Why wouldnt they just use the same puppet as the OT? Yoda is like 900 and this is supposed to be 25 or so years before we see him in ESB so you wouldnt really notice a difference

>>64595754
The puppet looks retarded, the cgi looks good.

>>64595754
Puppet:
>looks more realistic, in a bad way

CGI:
>looks less realistic, in a good way

Like >>64595830 said, the puppet should've looked like the CGI model.

>>64596135
The Yoda puppet was made from a material that degrades VERY easily.

the puppet was terrible
at least the CGI one was more consistent with the rest of the prequel trilogy

puppet because the CGI looks retarded

>>64596177
what material?
was it shit mixed with incompetence?

the original puppet from the original trilogy actually looks the best IMO.

>>64596177
not that guy but they don't have to use the actual puppet, just model it after it. It was clear they wanted to create a new better looking one and what they got was a shit puppet.

>>64595754
How did they fuck up making a Puppet in the first place, the one from Empire is far and away superior

>>64597083
because they wanted to new and improve everything. Newer puppetting tech, newer materials, etc. In the process they tried to make it look better and failed.

>>64596991
Why does Yaddle's puppet look so good? It's perfectly molded and shaped. The way the light hits the curves on the puppet, the way the hair looks realistic and soft. The loving gaze in her gorgeous eyes as she stares deep into your soul as if crying out PUT YOUR ENTIRE HAND INSIDE ME AND MAKE ME ALIVE.

Why couldn't they design the 1999 puppet to look EXACTLY LIKE THIS? Did they not have a fucking mold of the old one?

Did they not give a shit about consistency? Of all the changes Lucas made to the OT this and the walking Jabba scene piss me off the most. If it didn't look right why did they release it anyway? FUCK.

>Yoda puts on a retard act and talks like a retard just to fuck with Luke

>>64598759
>>Yoda puts on a retard act and talks like a retard just to fuck with Luke
>>speaks normally once he gets serious

He spoke the same the whole time from what I remember. He just lied about not being Yoda.

>>64598978
>I cannot teach him, the boy has no patience
>he is not ready
>a jedi must have the deepest commitment, a most serious mind

He goes in and out, but whenever Yoda got serious and wanted to drive home a point he spoke perfectly normal. The acting he displays in ESB was fantastic.

Muppet's are made out of roam rubber and glue. It rots and falls apart over time.

Why no one bothered to keep a master mold or something like that when Yoda is kind of iconic for Henson's creature shop is beyond me.

Actually, Lucas saved the old puppet, and they were planing on using it in TPM, but it fell apart cause it was almost twenty years old. So Lucas told them to make a replica of it, whitch is were >>64595754 comes from. And for the other two prequels, they just said "fuck it" and used GCI since TPM puppet was so awful.

>>64600572
Lucas should've fired those idiots after watching how awful they replicated the Yoda doll

>>64599454
Why does CGI Yoda always look so fucking bitter? Smile just once for fucks sake

>>64600709
I was about to say that. He looks so angry while in the original trilogy he was just stoic.

>>64595754
What's going on in this picture? Is 2011 from a re-release of the movie? I had no idea they did this sort of thing, literally re-creating scenes?

Sheev was clouding his mind and shitting up the force. He was always on the verge of realizing palpatine was behind it all.

This is probably the only case where I would go with the CG version over the practical one.

The puppet was so awful. It was like a sock puppet you buy at some bootleg store. There's no reason for it to look that bad.

Explain to me how it was good.

Even Kermit the Frog seemed more advanced than the EP 1 Yoda.

>>64596243
Why didn't they just use this one or at least try to remake it? The TPM one sort of looks like if Yoda were meant to be a negroid morph of whatever species he is

>>64595754
In this case – and ONLY in this case – the CGI version. The puppet was just badly crafted.

But the original 1979 puppet still beats any fucking CG crap.

Puppet.

I've never ever been able to take a CGI person seriously. It always looks fake, the puppet is awkward looking but at least it doesn't make me think "this isn't really there" every time I look at it.
