What went wrong? Why do they make them so unexpressive, I understand they were going for a "realistic" look but at that point you may as well just watch a nature documentary, remakes were a mistake.

I want to fuck 2D nala
It doesn't help that lions are ugly as fuck creatures in real life.
Their hair looks like what you'd see underneath a black woman's weave.
You can make realistic looking animals expressive as Marvel and Godzilla proves, Disney really has no excuse.
Rocket has always been humanoid looking. The lions weren't. Live action is just a bad mistake for products like these.
This is it. In the old one they "cheated" reality by giving eyebrows to cats. Like him or not, I think Carlin illustrates it perfectly here.

Not only they removed expressiveness, they market these blank, cold faces as... a feat I guess?
I bet most of the people will have a serious problem distinguishing between those new ones.
Why couldn't they just use actors in lion suits? Would be better than this uncanny valley CGI.
>what went wrong
Literally soul vs soulless. Like this is the perfect example. On the left you have bright colorful an expressive animation that many people put a lot of hard work and care into. the characters are distinct and easy to distinguish from one another. their very appearance immediately tells you everything you need to know about their personality and who they are.
on the right is generic CGI lions whom I can't even tell who is supposed to be who. this could be in any other movie and no one would ever be able to point and say "oh that's simba". Overly realistic depictions also robs any sort of connection a viewer could possibly have with these characters. They are just animals that talk. no different than those live action "comedies" where animals speak and tell stupid unfunny dog puns
What? Lions are the most glorious animals.
>Live action
Is it still considered live action if everything is cgi?
>real-life
>posts a coat of arms
If either of you have seen the Jungle Book remake then you know these animals will be expressive af.
Well even medieval nobles appreciated how awesome they are. Put them onto heraldry right next to mythical creatures such as dragons and unicorns.
>imagine spending millions 3d rendering a carbon copy of an actual lion
we all do, and anyone who says otherwise is a fucking liar
Lol that would be some real quality kino
kek
>MUH REALISM
That's why
they'll have thought of that and focus-tested the shit out of it. each lion will probably have some sort of distinguishing feature or fur pattern in addition to being slightly different shades of yellow
How did they look in the Disney Jungle Book redo?
In the Andy Serkis Jungle Book movie where the animals had the faces of their voice actors look retarded
Live action cgi OF ANIMALS is going to look shit whether you try to be natural like lion king or stylise like jungle book

What PS2 game is this?
Realer = betterer, in Hollywood language. Literally that's how they think.
How did this scene get into a childrens cartoon?
