Because that shot barely has any CGI. It's just the legs.

>>87855690
The scene looks good only because of the lighting covering up the 90s CGI.

Compare it to the dinosaurs chasing them in the field and you will find that the CGI is not that great in broad daylight.

Look at the feet.

>>87855690
The pure CGI shots in this movie don't hold up, just look at the Brachiosaurus scene. It's the parts that are used with animatronics that still look great

The T-Rex looks great in King Kong. The other dinos, not so much.

It hasn't aged well

Peter Jackson's King Kong has the best CGI we've ever seen though, and it still holds up today.

The government forces movies to have bad CGI on purpose so that NASA's faked cgi images look more credible and won't be suspected as being faked

CGI was never my friend

>>87856048
Given it's from 1993, it has aged very well actually. That it looks "dated" instead of "absolute trash" after 25 years is impressive.

>>87856135
That's only ten years old dude. And it's machines, not creatures, much easier to make realistic looking.

>>87856084
Why did Jackson put in all the Looney Tunes stuff, like in the beginning when the guy falls and he's obviously a second or two away from being trampled, but then the dinosaurs seem to pause off-screen long enough so that next time you see them the guy is still a second or two away from being trampled?
Why do Jackson movies always seem to have this shit?

Another oldfag here. I saw it in the theater when I was 10. It was fucking awesome. Looking back on the movie now I see that a lot of the non-dinosaur stuff is really cheesy, but yeah, that was a great experience back in the day.

Some of the scenes do. The galliminus look rubbish now. But the t-rex still looks solid, thanks to the careful use of the CG model mixed with the robot.
The raptor scenes also still look fine for the time.

No, obvious creatures who you know are CG often still look CG because simulating a creature is hard no matter how detailed it is.

>>87856391
Having the whole island drenched in rain, as it was in the book, was good for the immersiveness. Slippery mud everywhere, wind... helped make you feel like you were there. Also it was cool to feel like crazy shit might be happening all over the island now that the security systems were down.

>>87856084
no need to add raptors, it doesn't add to the sense of danger, it just makes the whole scene ridiculous and even more unbelievable. with the horrendous use of CGI, this scene summarizes jackson pretty well, it just lacks some stupid dialogue

Fincher would disagree.
Every Fincher film has more CGI than a standard Hollywood blockbuster. Literally every interior scene is shot on a sound stage. Every time you see blood in a Fincher film you can be sure it's CGI. The Social Network has more VFX shots than the 2014 Godzilla. And no one ever notices a thing.

Pretty sure all of his films will age good.

There are many movies that come out nowadays which have better looking CGI than Jurassic Park

Don't mind me, just posting the best CGI to date.

>>87856963
Truly epic post my friend

>>87856879
Actually the first thing to scare me in the movie as a lad was literally the opening scene where the raptor rips up the worker. Obviously it's shot very intensely and quickly with SHOOOT HAAH but the bit that scared me was when the worker is suddenly lifted like six feet off the ground by SOMETHING that's in the cage. The sudden display of strength spooked me for some reason, probably because it wasn't that big a cage so it's not like it's a t-rex in there.

That was only the beginning of course, I had a lot more scares to come.

This was shockingly good for 2006 and actually still looks great. Given it predates proper facial motion capture it's crazy how well it simulates Bill Nighy's acting. I know they did the capture dots but those were just markers then, not the tracking rigs they have now.

I wonder if it's because he's all wet and fleshy that makes the textures hold up better.

Like you remember

Mostly because it understood what so many modern films (Hint: IT) fail to understand about CGI which is that no matter how good you get it, no one is going to believe it's completely real. The more you use, the more dissonance you create with the audience. That's why everyone is so jaded to movies now, because it all looks like a video game. There's a big reason TV is in a golden age and movies are taking a dip, because it's tiring to watch actors interact with things that aren't even there.

Jurassic Park is bar none my all time favorite film because of how believable it all is. There's a perfect balance of practical effects, animatronics, and special effects with CGI used to fill in the small gaps in between. It's all shot in Hawaii, and it's not over crowded with gratuitous shots of the dinosaurs up until the climax of the movie. It lends itself to better story telling all around because it leaves you wanting more, so when you finally do get a chase scene between kids and raptors or when the TRex appears in the car scene, it has that much more terror and impact.

Too bad the rest of the movies completely abandoned those ideals and shot itself in the face.

like jurassic park or alien, or good movies

Yes it fucking does. The part where it hits the tree was used at the end of almost every trailer. That was the hype scene 2bh

Actually look at the Rex. It looks good for the time but very much looks CG

more importantly can its fuel melt steel beams

It kind of amazes me how millenials on /tv/ love this movie so much. I liked dinosaurs as a kid and I did see it in the theater with mom as a kid of 10 or so. I was entertained and all, but it didn't /leave an indelible impression on me/. Add to this (I guess) that dad always disliked the movie based on one viewing (he hadn't joined mom and I at the theater, but must have seen it later on TV at some point), and periodically said so over the next decade+ as I was growing up.

I think that a large part of what is going on here is a nostalgia specific to people born between 1985-1995 or so. Also, CGI in general is not defensible.

Or you're a dipshit who thinks too highly of his own opinion and experiences.

So you want the transforming robots to look like Dinosaurs or Aliens or something else completely?

Do you read what you type first?

Is that supposed to sound bad or something? You pretentious nit.

You were so preoccupied with whether or not you could, you didn’t stop to think if you should.

It's mostly animatronic, that's how. Practical effects win again.

Sort of cheating because it's obviously not all CGI, but the "walking through the bars" sequence from T2 is still unbelievably good.

It's the most memorable movie experience I had in my life. Went twice with my family. People who missed do not know what going to the cinema really feels like because nothing has come close to Jurassic Park save maybe Titanic and that movie has magic as well.

Scared me as well. My fucking dad and godfather laughed though. They thought it was hilarious when the trex started chewing the Tyre.

That's because most people who are in their 30s was here back in 2004.

>>87856181
why do you think t-rex became the most famous dinosaur in history?

>>87867662
BINGO! DINO DNA

Was still great when they released in 3d in IMAX a few years ago.

>muh millennials

It's okay to say you don't like the film, rather than come up with a convoluted generation blame to compensate for it

The CGI only works because seeing an actual puppet might allow you suspend your disbelief when you see a CGI shot.

Imagine the experience of being an underage.
