Same as Jurassic Park. Great VFX artists who cared and producers who didn't make saving money a priority.

I mean... it’s aged a bit.

imo it still looks better than most cg characters today

>postpone the judgement
fuck that mate let's get this over with

Y'all got suckered into thinking Marvel movies look anywhere near okay.

Only the eyes

Marvel cg is terrible

How bad will he look in pirates 6?

The lead VFX artist and his team was probably really passionate about bringing Davey Jones to life. Nowadays there's so much CG to be rendered in most blockbusters that studios outsource to foreign VFX houses/farms that only worry about finishing up their plates and getting started on the next one.

It looks fine and hating marvel movies due to their popularity comes from weak minds

Nah, it that I don’t see much of a difference. It does it’s job.

White men did CGI at Disney up until the late 2000s.

Granted Davey Jones is a technical marvel and looked amazing in every scene he was in, but still. It HAD to have gotten to him a few times during filming

Jurassic Park looks like shit. The animatronics are so fucking stiff, and the CGI is so blatant. It's a fun movie and looked amazing for its time but don't pretend like it holds up.

At least they gave him one scene with the pirate costume

It's literally just talent. It has nothing to do with advancement in CPUs or money. The people doing CGI used to be nerds trained on classical visual effects and animation and then became dumb self-entitled millennials who don't study the classics because they think they have it all figure it out. And you can extrapolate this to directors, cinematographers, actors and, especially, screenwriters. I mean screenplays nowadays are so fucking trash that you wonder if any Hollywood writer has even read a single book in their lives.

people hate them because they're bland factory line cartoons that cost 15 dollars a pop and push memes, toys and quips in place of anything that might resemble a decent story. only a minority of diehard contrarians sincerely hate things because they're popular, and popular shit has the same fail rate as anything else. perfectly valid position to not like a bunch of shitty flicks. imagine some guy going "i don't like all those westerns, they're hokey and by the numbers and rely on shit gunfights". would you say he just hates westerns cause they're popular?

Still look pretty amazing for a 25 years old movie.

I lmao when I finished Red Dead Redemption 2 and a thousand Indian sweatshop workers names came up in the credits. They must be paying these Pajeets peanuts to code.

That looks like shit. Get your eyes checked.

I said for a 25 years old movie did you missed that? Get your eyes check fucking retard.

let me clap those cheeks

how many years did it take them to make something better?

0 tessellation only bump map, mostly good color grading and film grain, but it was great animation

Those two are made by the same dudes I think

>"Jurassic Park looks better than stuff they make now!"
>no it doesn't, it looked good then but compared to stuff now it looks like shit
>"yeah well it was a 25 year old movie"
Yeah. 25 years ago or whatever, it looked good. Now it looks like shit. I already said this, so thanks for agreeing with me and disagreeing with the idiots who like to pretend it still looks good.

everyone is using CGI now and hollywood doesn't want to pay so they get cheap artists or bollywood style CGI

it's a marvel that CGI companies can go out of business in America

>"Jurassic Park looks better than stuff they make now!"
who said that?

barf...

Those pajeets wipe their asses using their left hand without tissues. Imagine the smelle of their keyboard, lole

Disney ruined Industrial Light & Magic

Read through the thread. There's plenty of replies where people are praising old CGI.

Praising old CGI mean it's better than recent CGI?

Read the thread.
>imo it still looks better than most cg characters today
Third reply.

I wonder if you know that the man who won the Oscar for Davy Jones was the same guy who oversaw visual effects for the Star Wars prequels

Jesus fucking christ I never dreamed those dudes were wearing NOT A SINGLE practical effect to aid the CGI with. Shits minds blowing

>dude lets blow up a redwood forest
>its for a movie so it'll be okay

the fuck are you talking about nigger?
rotj didn't build a hangar with the falcon like the previous movies, they just hired someone to make a background painting

A movie made today by a VFX company with little talent, a rushed schedule lacking time to get it right, and crappy budget will not be able to compete with an older film whose VFX crew had all those things.

Because CGIs today are done by bug people and pajeets.

Go play video games and watch youtube videos you cancerous mong, I'm not talking about marvel capeshits

You're crying about matte paintings which were liberally used in all 3 films because in one single instance they opted not to go with miniatures?

I'm crying because it looked like shit in the movie

Those two Pirates movies were the most expensive movies of all time at the time I think.

That truly explains a lot about the state of modern day CGI, especially in Disney.

Granted, they probably hired back some experienced white people to do Thanos since he's like one of the few marvelous CGI specimen in the modern day and will hold up well for ages, but as for the rest... Definitely pajeets.

Because there was less CGI in movies, they could use more time to refine the fewer individual scenes. It is simple as that. Now studios want more CGI with same money and in less time.

that posts about davy jones which is better than most cg characters today desu

probably subsurface scattering and just paying extra attention to light in general.
also they had octopodes as real world reference which made it easier.

Technology stopped being the bottleneck for good CGI years ago.

It's all about artist talent now.

I've been waiting 70 years for a better assault rifle than the AK-47. Sometimes great skill wins out over broad technological progress.

>Great VFX artists who cared and producers who didn't make saving money a priority.
it's never about money today user, it's always about the time they get to finish the scenes. I recently saw in a video that the reason the Black Panther fight at the end looks so awful is because they had like 2 months for the CGI which is very little. It's ALWAYS about time, money is no longer an issue for blockbusters CGI. And it's not the artist's fault, it's the people who give them these time windows fault

>would you say he just hates westerns cause they're popular?
Yes, those are not real reasons to hate an entire genre of movies so I'd just assume you don't like the fact that other people like Western movies.

I suggest you anons watch this series, it's fun and these guys often go into detail as to why CGI is bad or good in X movie youtube.com/watch?v=_4WrKeoeZhk

You could say they,
>spared no expense heh

Woah dude you're pretty old

It is amazing CGI but I remember reading that the reason it holds up so well is because a lot of CGI naturally has that moist, shiny look which is very difficult to get rid of, but of course works perfectly for an octopus man

There's just no love or pride in the industry any more.

These films had hands down the best cgi I’ve ever seen, I really can’t see it being topped in the next decade or so

The thing that makes CGI look so shitty and fake is that shit usually looks to shiny/wet etc... This CGI has aged well because it's trying to achieve what the weaknesses of CGI inherently are compared to practical effects.

Good series thanks user

>There's just no love or pride in the industry any more.
Why should there be? The guys cleaning their CGI and putting in dozens of hours of work are more often than not baristas with digital arts degrees that are getting paid in "exposure", which is just a fancy way of saying that they work for free.

Time is money tho.
