A whole movie where you're looking at a primate so it has to be convincing, using motion capture acting vs A minute or 2 of footage where it just has to be good enough At the end of the day CGI is a money/time decision on how much it'll impact the final product Edit: Honestly the rocket launch and "Mexico" CGI in the final episode were far more glaring and off-putting to me jisforjosh fucked around with this message at 22:16 on Apr 1, 2024 |

The 5th episode felt like such a great high point and ending (which from what I gather is where the 1st book ends?) and while there are some great plot developments and reveals in the remaining 3 episodes, it feels meandering a bit

Open Source Idiom posted:These eight episodes also had roughly four times the runtime, and had to adjust their budgets for covid and delayed reshoots caused by the strike, and a bunch of considerable one-off technical effects and costumes, large actor budgets, and operated in an even more bloated industry that sucks up money like a vacuum cleaner, etc. etc. Almost exactly the arguments I was going to make. You're talking about ~$160m for 7 hours of content vs ~$130m ($93m 2011 dollars) for 1.75 hours.

counterfeitsaint posted:I understand that gravity's effect is reduced by an inverse square of distance, but it's also technically without limit right? So really if you're calculating anything out, say, the movement of the Earth and moon to predict an eclipse, it's always a several body problem, even if most of those objects (the other planets in the system) are having very, very minor impacts. Is that not correct? Are the effects of other bodies in the system so minor as to be completely disregarded, even calculating far into the future? Even if you ignore everything else, something as straight forward as predicting the movements of the moon would be a three body problem, since you have the moon, the earth, and the sun. Yes but you also have the gravity of every other planet is the solar system to consider. It's a non-zero impact and in a billion year timescale there is a noticeable effect but tge forces mostly cancel out in any meaningful time frame.
