I'm a Thunderdome Liker so I say bring on Furiosa, even if it looks cheap as poo poo Georgie will give me something cool to remember in it.

I think modern movie-going audiences are way too critical of CGI as a specific type of special effect. At worst in the Furiosa trailer, it just adds a sort of painterly effect. Fluid motion goes a long way in my book, compared to the herky-jerky look of stop motion animation, or creaky hydraulics of some mechanical effects that I grew up with.

Wasn't the production of Fury Road a total nightmare? I can see why Miller and company wouldn't want to do that again.

I dunno if I'm even consciously saying what I do cuz of cgi effects. It just doesn't hit me the same and that's fine, its hard to measure up with a film that had some all time great trailers. I trust George, he's too old to do another Fury Road the same way and it'll at least be decent or somewhat interesting. Just a hard film to follow up.

the only narrative formats that arent afflicted with obvious special effects are literature and animation. if youre watching a live-action tv or film production, and it has special effects, you are going to notice that there are things on the screen that dont exist in reality. if you get hung up on the means by which those things are realized, then it is an issue with your perception, not the production

The problem is when the seams show.

for decades people have been predicting special effects that will be indistinguishable from reality. but the way to make art is not to be groundbreaking, or cutting-edge, or hyper-realistic; it’s to tell a good story, unimpeded by the limitations of technology. if a good script cant be made without cheesy special effects, then the problem isnt the cheesy special effects, it’s the audience’s perception of the special effects as cheesy due to decades of training by massive hundred-million-dollar movies to see anything short of perfect photorealism as an embarrassing failure
|
# ? May 9, 2024 20:44 |

The issue here is that Mad Max The Road Warrior has perfect photorealism because they actually just built and filmed all that stuff. Like, in order to make things "look real" Hollywood used to have to...just do the stuff. Look at Lawrence of Arabia.

There are plenty of people who think that Fury Road has way less CGI than it really does. There's a whole hour and a half long series on YouTube that details this kind of thing.

Fury Road should have been given a ride / world at Disney or Universal City but alas it was WB so they don't have a park. They should license it to us like Harry Potter. I want to hang out here

mcmagic posted:this is the whole point. good CGI shouldn't have you thinking "isn't that good CGI!?" you forget it's there. Yeah, this is the key. CGI isn't bad. There is absolutely incredible CGI usage out there. CGI is bad when it becomes distractingly obvious. The best CGI is so immensely well done you don't realize it is there and usually in conjunction with other things, Nobody cares Fury Road has CGI because there's precious few moments where it really stands out in context. (Which is what I hope Furiosa ends up doing.)
