when CGI makes things worse

>>79145527
Road Warrior made $23 million. Attack of the clones made $650 million.

Money talks and the movie industry listens.

anyone has practical effect version of merchant from TFA?

Lower is actually better here. It creates a hellish and blistering atmosphere, the world depicted in the pictures above looks much nicer

>>79145527
The crowd is imperfect but this is probably the first time I've actually seen colour grading used correctly to improve a shot's composition rather than limit it.

>>79147214
This

wannabe ciniphiles are programmed to hate CGI because they saw screencaps the worst possible examples on reddit. They fail to realize CGI works best when you don't realize it's there, and so assume it's always terrible because the only time they notice it, it is.

>>79145557
Eat a dick, the sand storm was fucking awesome.

>>79147214
Below looks like a fucking cartoon. Above looks so Australian I can taste the Vegemite (even though itvwas filmed in Africa)

>>79147370
Yeah, I saw that video too.
>CGI Sucks (Except It Doesn't)

Lower actually looks better, Op is a faggot.

>>79145618
attack of the clones is a better film than mad max 2?

hehe/

The only scene that doesn't look that great to me in Fury Road is the night scene.

>>79147373
The sand storm was retarded.

>>79147511
what video?

>>79145527

Save your "CGI is bad" meme for the movies where it actually looks bad.

The CGI touchups were definitely great additions, but I do think they went a bit overboard on the colouring and filters. The original trilogy never had any of that and still looked convincing, and more grounded too

do you have the night shot comparison? the unedited version was so much better

>>79147567
Nah, it was great.

>>79147613

The night shot is the worst. I understand wanting to see everything while filming, but does it have to be fucking blue as shit?

>>79147534
No, but it was more popular with plebs.

>>79147604
As an Aussie kid I could never get into Mad Max.
It just seemed like a bunch of idiots Cosplaying in our outback. I felt like the coppers would turn up at any moment tell them off for being dickheads or a random road-train would just start coming through the scene.

>>79147214
Lower is also happening during an infernal sandstorm.

Is there a version of Furiosa Road that doesn't have that shitty orange filter?

>entire canyon is CGI

I fucking hated that. It was so obvious

>>79145527
You don't even know what you are saying.

Most of "CGI" in Fury Road is just composited real life footage into the frame, not actual 3D model renders.

All of the frames you posted look better in post than before, I don't even understand what you are arguing, the Attack of the Clones comparison makes no sense

>Be a big fan of horror films
>Absolutely hate it when scenes are too dark to actually tell what's going on
>Absolutely hate it when they try to 'fix' that by having brief flashes of light, from lightning or some shit
Every FUCKING movie. I just want to see what's going on, not a black/nearly-black screen. No, the blue filter doesn't make it any more visible to me - it's still impossible to tell what's going on in the scene.

>>79147735
Was I the only one that liked the blue filter its way better than just have everything super dark

>>79147370
Most anti-CGI people would point out that CGI often ages poorly.

>>79149135
thanks

so it's over-the-top color grading and not CGI that is the problem

>>79150972
the grading in Arrival was really bad too

>>79147370
I see it as the same sort of effect you get with overly produced music. There's only a certain amount of reality that can be touched up before the depth effect is lost and everything feels cookie-cutter or video game.

>>79147936
it's obviously the superior version of the film. only morons feel otherwise.

this is why the black and chrome edition exists

>>79147373
The sand storm looked so CGI and fake. I am amazed people thought this film was "practical" when it really wasn't

>>79153350
post screenshot of the sand storm from the black and chrome version. maybe it will look better

>>79145527
No matter, still see a big guy.

>>79153778
Of course it looked fake. It was so over the top and stylish that it was amazing.
