Why does the CG from Transformers look better than CG from movies coming out today?
>>
>>217459310
In no way does it look better than Fire and Ash.
The constant vibration helps.
The lens flaring helps.
Your infantile fandom of an 80's cartoon also helps.
>>
Because it was made by a Jewish man (Michael Bay)

>Best example is a 400 million dollar passion project
>>
>VFX credits
>few Asian looking names
>no Indian looking names
Could this be factor?
>>
everyone was shit talking it when it came out
>>
Movies is a product to make money and great CG doesnt make more money than ok CG
>>
WHATTTTT IVEEEEE DONEEEEEEEEE

The movie or the CG? Everyone agreed that the CG was kino and were optimistic that it would only continue to get better.

Because Michael Bay is an amazing director, unironically. He just wastes his time/talent on turboslop scripts.
But hey, to each his own. I still rewatch Transformers '07 now and then. Scorponok attack sequence is kino.

War crime? It shows the US military and arab citizens working together lmao.
>>
>>217459310
bc they didnt had to make 3 of this peaces of shit every year. They took their time and it paid off, at least visually.
>>
>>217459310
Marvel making billions with jank cg after Iron Man 2008 proved to Hollywood that quality doesn't matter to the public
>>
>OPTIMUS!!! THE GENEVA CONVENTION CLEARLY STATES THAT AN UNARMED COMBATANT UNABLE TO FIGH--

Because it was made in the USA just like the POTC sequels around the same time.
>>
>>217459615
It's relatively easy to make a fractal heap of garbage look "real" with CGI.
>>
>>217459348
>In no way does it look better than Fire and Ash.
It's more impressive than Avatar because it is intergrated into real locations, it's "photo realisitic". The Avatar movies are almost completely computer generated, they barely even need to use a camera to shoot any of it.
>>
>>217459310
The transformer are CGI, but everything else is real. If this were made today, everything would be CGI, but they would be spending the same amount of money, so the talent would be spread thin and look worse.
Also, the contrast is much higher than in most modern films. The shadows being very dark and the highlights being very bright helps hide the fact that it is CGI. The very low contrast HDR look of most modern films also has the effect of making even real things look like shitty CGI, which is the biggest problem.

Craziest part about POTC is almost every other special effect (apart from the zombie skeletons in Curse) looks like fucking dogshit in these movies, yet Squidward is impeccable.
