Yes, how dare they not go to the literal bottom of the seas to film that scene! The hacks!

I don't understand, how were they supposed to shoot that scene underwater? I mean I guess they could have made more of a set but the scene they were doing has so much movement that it'd be impractical.

There's a big difference between a CGI scene shot at the bottom of the ocean and, say, a CGI airport.

>>90518477
The thing is, they had to create new technology that imitates movement underwater, of course it was going to be CGI, but maybe we're gonna see some groundbreaking shit right there

>>90518477
CGI is such a cop out, they should've given Momoa gene therapy so he could grow gills.

>>90518477
>>90519270
They've gotta feel like such jackasses while shooting these scenes.

>>90519270
Wait, the entire fucking airport was CGI?

Not even company warring, i genuinely didn't know.

Im sure they feel like well payed jack asses who then drive back to their mansions and feel real bad about it.

>"The airport is a hundred percent digital," ILM visual effects supervisor Russell Earl tells me over the phone. "Spider-Man, Giant-Man, and Black Panther are always one-hundred percent CG. Iron Man, War Machine, and then we’ve got Vision." The exceptions were characters like Black Widow, Captain America, or Winter Soldier — basically, the few people not wearing a mask of some sort. But while directors Joe and Anthony Russo did shoot at an airport in Germany, only a handful of principal cast members were there — with the majority of the live-action footage shot against a giant green screen in Atlanta, Georgia and assembled by the visual effects team later.

Pretty sure more people are wondering why you still have a job, Zack.

>>90519783
The airport was in Germany and they shot in Atlanta. I mean I guess there's an airport in Atlanta they could've passed of as in Germany but this was probably easier and cheaper. It does have a weird unreality to it though.

don't ever go to a play then

>>90518477
Honestly, that's pretty cool. Not like they could film it underwater for real; I mean, they COULD, but then every take would only be able to last a minute or two. Not to mention he'd be reflexively squinting all the time; silly as it looks, this is most definitely the best way to go about doing underwater effects for Aquaman.

It's a shame all this work will go to waste when Snyder finally strikes out, but hopefully we'll still have based Wan's Aquaman solo movie to fall back on.

>>90519761
It's called acting.

>>90519997
Fuck, I never woulda guessed for some of that stuff.
Shit on CGI all you want, it's definitely overused these days, but it's also a damn impressive tool when used properly.

There is no way to do this without CGI or filming in fucking orbit.

>>90524593
Yeah I saw the article now, I had assumed the pic meant that Jackman never had grey hair and a beard it was CGI in every scene, which is obviously ridiculous.

Only complete idiots complain about cgi

Most of these blockbusters are like 70% cgiLike youre complaining about the obvious stuff but then dont even notice the smaller stuff so the cgi is doing its job then isnt it

>>90519997
OK, that's unusual. I thought that they were shooting at an airport because it'd be a little cheaper, but if it's all CG then that means they actually planned for the big battle to happen in such a dull location.

>>90520129
Didn't James Cameron require the actors who played fighter pilots actually get their helicopter license?
And had all the actors hike through a bunch of jungles to see and feel what walking through a real jungle is?

>>90527967
Big CG set pieces are often planned months before filming starts.

I watched his owl movie at a cousin's house, never read the books it was based on, in spite or because of that I thought it was pretty gud

Colors were nice and varied, not cold and downcast like most of his DCEU scenes. Even the dialogue was directed better.

If he can do that with owls, why not DC?

>>90528960
He had a valid argument as an actor and a thespian

Can't believe Snyder managed to slip in a trailer for SuckerPunch 2 into the middle of the movie.

And I can't believe they told a team of animators to do all that slime and goo physics simulations instead of just putting a guy in a costume and covering him with goo. Worked pretty well in The Thing.

What is the point? If it can convey well what is the deal? Are people batching about "principle" or something? I can understand when the greenscreen is shit, it a lot of these aren't.

>>90529200
Not in a entirely green room

>>90529211
It's bad when Snyder does it

In fairness he smears the footage with unappealing filters which distracts the viewer and makes him look for CGI

Other directors use filters too, some just let everything look more or less natural, but Snyder's choice of filters invites this sort of criticism

As someone who works in video games, please tell me what magic future year you come from and how you got here

>>90527991
Iyes. I mean, he could've just given them actual, effective direction so that they could act. But, you know, he has his way of doing things.

>>90529479
"Looks like a video game" is just a meaningless criticism like "pacing and editing" when it has no examples. They just pretend something is bad in order to make it look bad.

>>90529498
Must be doing something right given he's still on top with the 2 highest grossing movies ever made.

>>90529280
>unappealing filters
>making things look good is bad now

>>90529427
That sounds like an euphemism

>>90529479
Uncanny valley. Everything in BvS looks like it was manufactured by computers.

>>90518477
For all the criticism I give Snyder, that's actually a pretty ingenious way to go around it. The clip they did record in a water tank for BvS made Jason Momoa look clumsy, so this will probably give them better results.

Now where's the fucking trailer, I want to be mad at it since last year.

>>90520305

If you just want to fuck around with Maya you can torrent that jank

>>90529647
Maya has a "student edition" version, which is free iirc.

You can get external render engines (they use Arnold and Vray in BvS, I think, but I recommend Arnold) as trials and hire render farms later. I think as of 2017 Maya has Arnold built in, and Renderman (Pixar's render engine) is free.

Go get em champ, it's hard as shit, but it's worth it.

>>90528924

He should be able to act even when alone.

I don't do that shit, you misunderstand me. I want JL to be good.

The little I've seen doesn't look too good, but if it ends up beng good, I'm not gonna just go around denying it.

But if it's shit, I'm not gonna spend months calling it the best thing ever, and that people who don't like it don't "get it".

The disingenuous criticism of MoS starting this. Now all epic clashes have to take place in padded rooms or vast dunes that are greatly distanced from civilization. Also doesn't filming in cities cost these days which is why you see tons of movies filmed in other regions these days? I think that might have more to do with it.

also this so much >>90532077

>>90532599
The airport made sense, it's where the aircraft they were trying to get to in order to get away was located, and it was large enough that the other Avengers could hide there waiting for them to arrive.

As far as airports go, you never ever get the chance to smash them up or have a low-sec outfit like a film crew work with explosives on them. They simply cost too much to run, so you've got to do them in CGI (or use an office building for interiors and shoot really tight angles that don't show you there's no runway outside, which doesn't help immersion since most major airport terminals the world over suffer from greenhouse syndrome).

If you're just upset that they included an airport in a chase movie... can't help you.

If you're upset that they had the set-piece fight there - sure they did, it's where the toys are most clearly visible.

>>90532953
