Green Lantern is one of the movies of all time

@oderintdummetuant8429 Год назад

Absolutely

@Mrmynameiszach Год назад

It is indeed "one of the movies"....

@TheCoppoy Год назад

Of some times - sure!

@just_me2797 Год назад

It was absolutely a movie amongst other movies and no one can take that away from those that made it. They will always be able to say "I was a part of that,,,, movie".

@rhettthedog7757 Год назад

Pirates of the Caribbean, curse of the black pearl. The way they kept the skeletons dark, and the ships look so real. To this day, it looks so good.

@Luke101 Год назад

That entire first trilogy has some of the most impressive effects ever put to screen. Phenomenal movies

@rade-blunner7824 Год назад

The ships look real because they're miniatures, really big ones. Around the turn of the millennium was the sweet spot where CGI wasn't capable of everything yet, so in the hands of sensible directors it would be an excellent mix of miniatures and CGI complementing each other.

@noahcozzi3375 Год назад

I agree. The final scenes blow me away. I never watched those until a couple of years ago, and I was second guessing myself the entire time, like, "this is almost 20 years old, right?" SO impressed by that series.

@DerfLlennod Год назад

scoured through the list, still surprised only one scene was ever mentioned and that was davy jones on ep 1 and 67. I was fond of DMTNT where salazar is eternally underwater.

@eninkam Год назад

The scene of the cursed crew walking under the sea is still amazing

@droyd666 Год назад

To me District 9 has the most photoreal cg characters to this day. It helped that they went for creatures with exoskeletons rather than soft flesh which gave them that insect type movement.

@TMV420 Год назад

it blew me away when i first saw it. it still holds up to this day! but there's no debate, Avatar 2 is the most realistic and convincing cgi everything! i just saw it and i was blown away the entire movie. i kept forgetting that every single shot was almost completely cgi. i never once thought anything was cgi. say what you will about the story, its not my favorite movie or anything. but the vfx from Weta FX won't be topped for another decade by any other studio.

The scale of the intro shots from Wall-E still blow me away. The entire film is a masterpiece as it works for different ages on different levels.

@danl6634 Год назад

IMO the cgi is the cherry on top; it's such a challenge to build a story with so little dialog. Wall-e one of the very best captivating stories that relies on amazing visuals & characters instead of talking heads. Putting it another way- to hold my then 5 year old's full attention for the whole movie & have mine as well... that's a feat.

@FUBARguy107 Год назад

I saw Wall-E multiple times in theater. Once in a huge XD theater and again in a huge theater in another city. Then a third time at a much smaller venue with my gf and we used mind-altering substances and Wall-E became deeply important to us for well over a year. I'm also really good at mimicking Wall-E's voice so that didn't help letting go at all.

I think with this or as its own episode, practical effects people think are CGI. RocketJump did a great video essay on this.

It could be how simple some stuff is, but the way the lighting and use of creative techniques to create a whole new world and visual aesthetic to its own is something that is overlooked.

Everything Everywhere All At Once - I wanted to immediately go back and see it again after the 1st time. The way the VFX are serving the story, being absolutely bonkers and at the same time well made, is just pure magic. And they're often "simple", based more on editing, rather than "waves of blue energy as people punch eachother" (they talked about that in the WIRED piece). Not to mention the fact that almost 500 shots was done by an absolutely tiny team.

Life of PI is one of the movies that always impressed me with its vfx. I mean a full cg tiger that has so much screen time and so many close up shots while always looking 100% photoreal is just damn impressive.

@@Florianski exactly - they're not credible at all. Looks like a hodgepodge of different art styles. Scenes that were generated by committee.

I watched Saving Private Ryan at the cinemas and not once did I think CGI effects and then I saw a Making Of years later and it blew my mind how much CGI was implemented. The FX were so good I didn't even notice.

I think it is primarily thanks to Jordan being on. He has fantastic insight into the technicallities of VFX and has the wonderful ability to break it down simply. While the others still all have similar technicial knowledge, they don't have the same teaching approach to explaining as such but are usually better at breaking down the problem solving process

HOW TO TRAIN YOUR DRAGON When I first watched it I had never ever seen flight captured so convincingly and smoothly in a movie. You could feel the power of the wing beats and I LOVE that they implemented different methods of flight for the different species of dragons. The lighting was also something the animators talked about because the majority of the movie was "shot" outdoors they used alot of different natural light to light the scenes. I remember trying to record a scene on my phone camera that I had at the time and my phone actually couldn't capture the picture because the brightest brights and the darkest shadows were too much for my camera to handle.

@CountDooku420 Год назад

I think some of the most EFFECTIVE use of VFX, where it felt seamless and ahead of its time and supported the story, are Contact and The Frighteners.

David finchers use of computer generated effects should be talked about more, because most of it people don't even realize that what they're seeing is cg. Fincher is excellent at utilizing these tools when necessary and merging them seamlessly with in camera shots, would love to hear yall talk about that more. Social network, Zodiac, Girl with the dragon tattoo, Benjamin button, panic room, all stunningly subtle cg effects

The most seminal effects would have to be in "2001", but the daemons in "His Dark Materials" really blew me away: They're just *there*, and they did that level of work for a TV series.

@VicenteAlexander.S Год назад

"Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest" - Davy Jones, the Flying Dutchman and its crew, along with the Kraken attacks, are simply some of the most real effects even now 17 years later. An the fact that Gore Verbinski worked as a VFX compositor earlier in his career certainly helped the production reach a standard of VFX that is not often even targeted these days.

I'd really enjoy a documentary-style series where he focuses in on a specific technology or technique and just walks through how it works, a la the Disney guide to directional lighting video they used as footage reference.
