VFX Artists React to Bad & Great CGi 48 

I'll second that

Do they do the fandango in it?

never heard of it, but i’ll third that

@@Joescotterpuss It's not very very frightening.

@@jonathanrussell482 Only for Galileo, Figaro

This is his second visit, I imagine he’ll be coming back a lot

He's great!

He technically is

Thirded, or fourthed, of seventhed or whatever. I totally agree, he's bomb.

I'd sub for that.

It's a shame they did this TV show in English thought.. It takes all the realism away.

Are you his publicist or something?

@@Z4Zman i wish

It sucks how bad the story was though

Holy crap, I remember Stakka Bo!

It's the best way to write as well, you shouldn't write a narrative, you should create a character and a world and the story should happen "to" the character not "around" your character. If your character can't react and respond to the situation in a realistic way in the world you created you don't have a good character, it's too shallow.

They have to plan for longevity. If they break down too much too quickly they'll run out of content and then lose traffic.

You can, but imagine couple million people returning every time for an hour long show? The audience would quarter real quick.

livestream!

@@eric_kelso_ they’ve already repeated some stuff, they’ve covered the Battle of the Bastards in a previous episode

It's because half of their videos are ads.

Hey that's awesome! thanks for sharing your story!

So as Jr fx artist you worked on very specific plot point deaths?

If you want to watch the shows, you can still pirate them (all due respect to the show makers)

Somewhere because of this comment a 20 year old HBO intern who recommended or vouched for this sponsorship deal... earned their wings.

its worth it there is so much good content on there amazing world of gumball the dark knight trilogy all the dc animated shows and movies + DCEU and the monster universe

Honestly it is a great streaming site. Watchmen, west world, game of thrones are all film quality shows and that’s just the surface of what they offer. They seem to always be adding new shows too and the movies that go straight from theatres to the service are great.

It just speaks to the production value 🤣. Always the silliest flex. You're just bragging about your budget.

Bride of Frankenstein is a classic. One of my all time fave old movies.

YES!!! I was trying so hard to figure out how those were done!!!

Right? And they had Eric on talking about stunts he did for it a while back too.

HBOs catalog is so big I’m sure we’ll get a part 2

sadly the writing isn't after the first season tho

Cthulhu was so little in love craft country…also it sucked

@@ydid687 tbh I don't get the bashing of season 2. It was even better puzzle that season 1. And season 3 was just a result of everybody being tired of puzzles so they gave us a simple action season

That effect is digusting XD

@@hollandscottthomas oh yeah, unbelievably gross.

Yea that's what I was waiting for. We definitely need that for a future episode

Absolutely.

Super janky.

Holy shit it's been years since I've opened a cinefex magazine (I think my parents finally threw mine away). Thanks for the reminder. Good times, those were.

As a side note, Gav from the Slow Mo Guys collaborated with them in a few videos.

ofc you can be just download the software and watch some youtube tutorials.

@@demonsluger oh I can't mate, failed GCSE IT so no way I could do any of that 😅. Don't have a rig either (just have a smartphone), nevermind one good enough for that. Appreciate the kindness though!

@@The_Curious_Cat yeah I remember them

Also the footage from Veritasium's visit to the Pripyat hospital basement was a nice feature...

Interesting, that would be cool.

I agree

Awesome movie

IMO might have demonetized them because it’s pretty bad ha. And she comes out nude from the process.

No time. They needed to get back to audibly telling us how great HBO is.

@@likestoospooge you're right they should have instead trashed HBO, told us how horrible the service is, because that would have worked. So much entitlement. Go outside.

@@aaronchamberlain4698 that may be true, but they could have blurred out the nekkid parts or just show the face.

@@Kevin-yw5qr There is a way to be subtle in advertising. You don’t have to say every show is your favorite which is obviously bullsh*t.

SANDERRRRRR

wait... NICK'S dad?!!?! This entire time I thought it was Wren's dad. They look so similar!!!!

@@3yp0n yeah did you not see the last video with him? It was pretty good

Who the fuck is Nick?

@@eliasripley2357 do you even watch this channel? :0 No worries if not! Its the great Nick Laraunt :3

Na, man. Hardhome was where it peaked.

@@elitemook4234 Was just gonna say that. Hardhome was not only the peak of GoT, but one of the best episodes in TV history. Also fun fact, Miguel Sapochnik, who only directed six episodes of GoT, directed both Hardhome and Battle of the Bastards.

@@ashb7 luckily the guy who directed hardhome, battle of the bastards and winds of winter is doing the new house of the dragon prequel show

nah season 4 was peak

@@phatlewt2932 exactly after that was just pure decline in writing. Characters getting ruined and plot holes everywhere.

He sounds like he’d be a very good narrator.

Real history. Real monsters. Real magic. Idk how folks can watch it and not feel a sense of powerlessness, awe, and horror.

@@wytho3751 are you describing Chernobyl? If so then it isn't what I thought it was.

@@wytho3751 Of course, so real, that people in whole working city walk around with children in the night. Nothing about that movie is real, or historical, and don't give me that "based on actual documents" bs, interpritation of these documents as well as this show were debunked and destroyed by famous russian historian Klim Zhukov and his colleague Dmitri Puchkov, on his youtube channel every episode has its own video, 1 hour long each, it is analyzed and debunked. All I have to say is: Westerners stay the fuck away from our history and culture, you understand none of it.

@@trueomen5017 ok.

Yup one of the best series on HBO! Up there with True Detective. Skarsgard was great.

Such a fantastic, terrifying piece of cinema.

scarier than a horror movie!

Meh. Not great, not terrible.

The Thing U telling Seems Chirstopher nolan Seeing Kids Movies XD These guys are pros So Music videos Not that Much Educative Understand

Only when someone pays them to do it

didn't they break down one of lil nas x's music videos or something

@@FrostyFoxGamingIGM yeah because their friend Mike Diva directed it

Great idea!

I'm sure whenever they can fit it into a good theme

Thanks for reminding me!! i totally loved that one! it had a great feeling to it that most American movies lack and reminded me why i dislike american filmmaking so much. It wasn't made with an eye on merch and spinoffs, and if it was, they buried it really well. The trolls looked like epic kids crayon drawings of monsters, which made them even more scary.

Agreed!

Yes, I loved that film! It's even more incredible that it was created on such a small budget.

There was good animation in that. The scene with armor dude on the bridge they did a good job incorporating the creature into the line action plate.

Why problem make when you no problem have you don't want to make?

Yes, I wonder why they had absolutely nothing negative to say about any of it.

@@dogbin only me who taught the second series the show looked like a PlayStation game it didn't look real at all XD

@@dogbin Did you not watch the last Lovecraft segment? They explained why the fire didn't look that great. Are you coming here to see them shit on shows?

@@DeanS946 They talked about the fire, yes, but the rest looked bad as well. GoT scene had lots of bad stuff in it too. I think we all want honesty from these guys.

@@freakazoid4691 did you want them to talk about the plot in GoT? Or was there something you think was bad cgi wise in the Battle of the Bastards. Genuinely asking.

I thought She'd just cross them from one side but she decides to go criss cross and I was like what ? Did they just Roto a scene like that with shadows painted on and particles . 🥂

Eh, I think part of the reason is that LDR is completely CGI. They mostly review visual effects and design that interacts with real footage, where LDR is just pure CGI in most cases. I could have sworn that they've talked about it at least once though.

”Hey guys, today we’re going to break down some Love, Death & Robots for you…it’s all CG” *end video*

@@BLUEKOMMEH It's also a show about detailing how they captured certain effects, how they solved certain challenges. The CGI varies a lot between episodes I'd still like to hear them talk about it even if it doesn't perfectly fit their series. People would enjoy it.

@@TheTechDweller True, and they could also make it into another Animator's react vid instead of a VFX one

Waiting for that Netflix sponsorship

After all Surprise is on our side

I second that

Stand tall on the quarter deck son. Always

I love O'Brian's series. Lovely historical fiction.

One of my top five for sure

Came to the comments to find this, not disappointed.

But do subscribe

And most random award goes to 🏆

Yes!! 👽👽🔥

But thats all phyiscal props. Corridor just do crappy 3d.

Yes!

@@TheKodiak72 someone hasn't watched the show for very long 🧐

They should do the entire Alien Quadrilogy. The transition between the practical effects of 1-2 and the early CGI in 3-4 is pretty cool.

Woah, that’s a cool idea

Cool idea! Could include the Chevron cars done by the great Aardman Animation, and when they moved from stop motion to cgi.

Great idea! I remember being amazed at the animation and modeling at a certain iteration, but never looked back at it.

Agreed!

Yes Tobey is the best

Actually better, the CGI in all of Raimi's Spider-Man. The second movie is a ton of fun to look at.

That sandman scene is a cgi masterclass.

Hey man

its fantasy and sci-fi, its kind of supposed to be "ridiculous"

just some guy without a life

Man we watch all the same people bruv how

You again

Bonus, Kate Beckinsale 🥰

Strange that they still haven't broken it down yet 👀

Nah but fr that was amazing haha 😄

Let's be honest tho, it is the best battle scene on TV yet! For real!

Lmfao

@@FaresDjebbar No.

Yes I also enjoy quality HBO MAX™ entertainment

YES

I legit watched it the other day again, is definitely a odd movie and would be great if they reacted to it

There's some really cool stuff in that. But one thing drives me CRAZY...if you're shooting an indie in 2005, why would you have your lead wear WHITE on a green screen??? There's spill on her for the entire movie, I don't know why they did that to themselves.

@@WeeklyComedian Right!? I just... I have so many questions about that movie and I hope they look at it some day because I am curious for more takes.

Yep. They both have great effects. Both computer and practical.

band of brothers is awesome

No thank you, that piece of crap show doesn't deserve the recognition even if there is some stuff to look at.

@@cenciende9401 I mean, I actually really liked the show but whatever. And some of the VFX are genuinely super interesting and I'd like to get expert perspective on.

They already did a breakdown of clips from season 1. Check out their earlier videos.

Duuude I love that film!

PaUl Ritter. Great, not terrible.

@@ramonandrajo6348 I don't recall the show showing the Soviet Union any favor.

@@ramonandrajo6348 you really enjoy being a prick... All of your friends must love you...

@@SchrodingersDinger All of that talk of the reactor being able to "explode like a nuke" and "raze Minsk to the ground" and how their "heroic efforts saved the world" was propaganda put out by the Soviet Union to make themselves not look like the incompetent fools they were. The truth is that A) the reactor *could not* explode like a nuke. They literally physically cannot do that. A nuke is designed to release all of the energy in the reaction within a millisecond (or less, ideally). A nuclear reactor is designed to release it as slowly, and as controlled as possible. B) Even if it could explode like that, the size of the explosion they quoted wouldn't even set car alarms off in Minsk, let alone have destroyed the city. Not even Pripyat (I think that's the name), which is basically a stone's throw from the reactor comparatively, would've had more than windows blow out at their quoted detonation. C) The reactor itself, as I recall, isn't what exploded - the steam system did. It over-pressurized and exploded. There was then a later secondary explosion most likely caused by the casing of the rods (I forget the exact metal composition, but it contains a highly alkaline metal) falling into the coolant, but I don't think anyone knows for sure. It bugs me how many people still believe the propaganda from this. This event, along with Three Mile Island (another case of human error, iirc) and Fukushima (not exactly the reactor's fault it was hit by a tsunami and earthquake, and all-in-all survived it pretty well), are what gets quoted as "NUCLEAR BAD COAL GOOD COAL SAFER" etc, when, objectively, nuclear power is one of the safer generators available. Their main downside is storage of spent fuel, but there are ways to mitigate that with designs *not* based on uranium-238.

@@SchrodingersDinger Seconding this. I think the line "That is how an RBMK reactor core explodes. .. Lies." was pretty on the nose...

Yes. Agreed!

I agree. Some of those scenes were crazy. That river of faces or people if I am not wrong. That was crazy!

+1

Good shout!

The Dark Crystal series!!!!

Team America 😅

Jurassic Park's had some puppets too, now that I think of it. (Including one puppeteer you can see in the movie!)

They have done it all ready

I think they already have in a previous episode

It's pretty bad actually

3.6 Roentgen. Not great, not terrible.
