Watch some of the weta BTS.
What they did was spending enormous amount of time on practical effects. Then they kept adding layer after layer of cgi until it was pretty much unrecognizable. I am talking specifically about >>64659674

I honestly think this is much worse than if they just did the cgi.

>prequels

They aren't prequels though. Just episodes 1-3. A prequel would happen before 1-3.

>>64660230
It probably is fake in the final cut. They do a shit load of post processing to sets and things. Sometimes they completely CG over a practical effect.

>>64660634
They had a lot of green screen. Must of what's posted in this thread is miniatures - they were still acting against green screens.

>>64660938
That's how it works. You don't make "Part 5" the call "Part 4" a prequel. You call whatever comes before "Part 1" in the story line a "Prequel".

It is as bad as when people celebrated the new century when the 1999-2000 new year rolled around.

>>64661074
In episodes 5 and 6 they got the real guy. He was busy during the filming of episode 1 so they had to use a puppet, which is why it looks so shitty.

In episodes 2 and 3 he was too old to do all the action scenes they wanted, so they just had him as a stand in for the cgi version you'd see in the finished movies.

Some sets with that much CGI poured on them? Shit.

That's really the biggest problem of the prequels; they were just too ugly. I'd have overlooked most of the story problems if Lucas just made movies that didn't look worse than in the fucking 70s.

Great thread!

I am now in love with prequels (except Jar Jar, that was little bit too much, but it is not that bad, when if you compere it to that soulless BB8 toy).

TFA is shit and everything about it are lies. I have never expected that TFA will implode so well. But it happened and now we can understand what true SW movie is.

Fuck Kasdan who wrote that unoriginal piece of crap and Jew Jew with his lies about practical effects.

Is that true? Even with the man hours you'd need to pay artists to do all the close up Commander Cody scenes and stuff?

Do you think that's the sole reason? Just look at how many celebrities volunteered to cameo in the new movie for free. I bet any number of fans would have taken dismal dayplayer sums to wear a stormtrooper costume and stand in formation.

What's the point in making all these practical sets if they are just going to jizz cgi all over them in post-production so they all look like cgi anyway?

There are ways to use practical sets properly, the prequels are not a good example of that. Something like Lord of the Rings is.

>>64662025
>This

Just get a bunch of skinny dudes that are 6ft, put them in the armour and do all the background troopers with CG.

Forced perspective is very limited in it's use. It wouldn't work in a scene with lots of people and lots of camera movement.

>>64662280
not bait. i just don't think it would really be "jarring." battle scenes are filled in all the time with CGI players in the background and real players in the foreground. I'm saying if you can't detect that a static image is a painting after post processing, it's not very likely an out of focus CG character would have been that noticeable

>>64662328
>floating
I don't think you know how compositing works.

>image.jpg
oh

>>64662368
That's why in a scene with LOTS of people you use cgi, or simply copy one person again and again, also like they did in Lord of the Rings for the huge army shots.

>>64662326

even less reason height differences in stormtroopers is indicative that it is impossible to have actors hired specifically for their build to look uniform when wearing molded plastic armor

>>64662380
You CAN, but in my opinion, It looks fine the way it is.

>incoming jaypegs and webms of shit cgi

If you're actually serious and not trying to force your contrarian 17 year old brain into thinking that, then I don't know what to tell you. The actual visual fidelity of the clone trooper CG has aged very poorly, they stand out like a sore thumb in the movies and they look like video game cutscenes.

Look I didn't like Maz Kanata either, but you cannot sit here an shitpost that she looks worse than this.

>>64663213
You best be posting that as a an example of good CGI.
It looks great.

>>64663147
Manlet Fett confirmed.

>>64663221
no, CGI is virtual

>>64663221
Let me know when you can walk up to and touch a piece of CG artwork that's not printed on a sheet of paper.

>>64663249
That looks better than most 2002 CGI, especially 2002 CGI as the focus of a shot.

I don't see a problem.

You wouldn't say Taun Taun stop motion (not the recomosited 1997) from ESB looks good now, so why rag on 13 year old SFX?

Also, don't say they should have used a guy in a suit. I'm addressing your post about the quality of the CGI.

Maz looked like a fake video game character compared to jar jar. You can tell there was a lot of fucking effort on the cgi in the prequels, especially jar jar in the beginning, "they key to all of this"

not so much in tfa. it was an afterthought, lazily implemented into scenes.

but why bother talking about maz when there was a fucking gollum clone that looked WORSE than gollum did in 2001 or w/e

Best things about the prequels GO.

>>64663659
That looks incredibly bland

Quick reminder that TESB has an obvious GLOVE PUPPET monster coming out of a papier mache diorama as one of it's big moments.
Also a shit yeti which was almost totally cut out of the film it was so bad.

>>64661898
Height and weight are both pretty determinant on diet

While they would probably all be the same height, the weight could vary based on specialization and assignment

>>64660634
The Plinkett reviews, while entertaining at the time, are ignorantly opinionated original content. What I mean by that is the majority of the flaws pointed out were original. Plinkett made them up. People began to parrot Plinkett and still continue to do so but they are his opinions. Only a few of them were shared by the rest of us. I hated the prequels to but I've come to an understanding that they are what they are and I have grown to like RotS and even think AotC isn't that bad (I used to despise it). Fuck Red Letter Media. They should apply the same scrutiny to TFA and they should hate it too because it is full of flaws but they won't

>>64663659
why are they all flying at the same altitude ?? stupid

>>64663617
GOAT shot. I get hard everytime this shot comes up.

I watch the PT at least once a month.
I enjoy them everytime. I'll never understand people who say they suck.

I've watched the Plinkett reviews and he's just so bitter, rage has clouded his judgement.

Literally no point in making models if they layer cgi onto it so much that it just looks like all cgi anyway.

>but look at that attention to detail

the only part that can be mildly assessed on its detail is the part of the left on the foreground, which looks fake with horrible textures

What is the point of this thread?
Everyone agrees the prequels were dogshit, so what if it also had some practical effects? Does that fix the awful dialogue? Or the plot?

>>64663859
Why did you post this? It looks like absolute garbage.

>>64663763
I'm not sure where you think I was criticizing flashy things, but both can be bad. You need a balance and many of the shots failed to achieve it.

Only the background in that scene and the alien with the long neck is CG. Phantom Menace aged better than Clones and Sith because it showed restraint.
