ST Everybody and Yo Mama Wants to Be in Ep. VII

Force ghosts are not physical and are therefore not bound by the same exact physical laws and limitations for appearance and they can walk through walls and teleport and things like that.

 

It wasn't presented as an expert opinion, just an illustration, that even to a child most PT CGI was terrible and cartoonish! Thanks for your informative feedback none the less.

 

Yes that is a totally realistic scenario that a grown man would tell and infant to hate CGI. I'd wager that he is a balanced human being and actually has a life. I don't have an issue with CGI other than when it is overused and looks like whack ass cartoon.

 

Well I don't like that you liked that he went out like a punk.

 

Windu would serve little purpose in the ST given Luke & co wouldn't know who he is.

The only part I can see would be as some form of old holorecording as Jackson suggested, a one-armed ghost would be dumb.

 

Luke, I can't get Degobah Park back online.

 

Well, I don't like that you don't like that he liked that he went out like a punk.

We can play this game all day, kids!

 

Going out like a punk is being shot in the back by a couple of clones. His death was part of one of the movie's climax.

 

Well I suppose his death was nowhere near as silly as Professor X's in X Men 3.

 

Yeah, but this brings up a logistical nightmare. If Mace's hand can come back then where is Vader's arm from Geonosis? Also, are legs allowed to come back, because Anakin lost both of them? Then again, what is the statue of limitations for limbs coming back because Luke lost his hand like 20 years later. And do non-Jedi limbs return? I ask because then we could have Zam Wessel's arm come back as well as Ponda Baba's. Lastly, do heads count? Maybe if Boba Fett can't come back his dad's head could.

 

Just imagine all the creepy places Count Dooku's hands have been...

 

I know! The villain of the ST is just a bunch of disembodied limbs attached to Dooku's head!

 

Is it going too far to bring in Darth Maul's severed bottom half?

 

Perhaps these are "the other movies" George Lucas was talking about in that video on D-Day???

 

Perhaps Mace had himself frozen in carbonite to hide from the Emperor.

 

My kids don't think it looks fake at all. I bet it's because, as my children, they've learned some of my likes and dislikes, and can identify with them. The same is probably true of Simon Pegg's kid. Ever seen the original Star Wars in its original form? Of course you have. Are you telling me that Walrusman's arm on the floor looks less fake than the CGI in the prequels?

 

THE

The prequels look fake. Almost everything in them... There is a reason why the films were universally canned, and the cgi is always presented as one of the problems!

Give me puppet Yoda any day of the week. Atleast they could never have done leaping frog Yoda on drugs with it... *shakes head*

 

His arm? I can't stop looking at the balls on his chin! And yes it does look more realistic than the entire Gugan army, the Battle of Geonosis, the corridors of the Jedi Temple and the Cloning facility.

 

This guy... this guy knows! Look at the work on Men In Black 3, puppet's, with added, subtle CGI, not a whole trilogy that looks like a sophisticated Space Jam!

 

Rubber Dewbacks with poles in their heads look fake, CGI ones look better.

Bumpy landspeeder with fudged-out wheels is not as good as SE version which actually floats above the ground.


CGI is not the issue, if it's good.

 

The PT films were not actually "universally canned". And regarding CGI, yes there were parts that relied on CGI too much, but there were other parts that made great use of it. Also, there were many real physical sets used in the PT, too... just as many as in the OT, IIRC.

 

Oh man... The jedi temple scene where Mace, Yoda and Obi are talking is horrible. And the scene in the cloning facility where obi is talking to whateverhisnameis (lama su?) is flat out unwatchable!

 

Yeah, not at all...

They were masterpieces that the Academy recognised... The acting was brilliant, the cgi was top notch and the story stimulating!

 

Man that is so fake looking. People bang on about the space battle at ROTS, it looks like a video game trailer, next to the space battle in ROTJ, made in 1983 no less, which is still unsurpassed, in any film! I can handle good GGI mixed in with real backgrounds and real actor's and extra's. The PT looks almost identical to some of the Clone Wars cartoon FFS!

 

They got mixed reviews, not across-the-board bad ones.

The Academy was never likely to recognise Lucas anyway, they hate the idea of an independant director doing well without needing Hollywood.
The PT had some pretty dodgy CGI parts, but that happens in quite a few films these days.

Some of the visuals in TCW are better than the PT.
