I am currently rewatching the OG trilogy. The movies are so dirty looking and have a little cheapness in the costumes but...they look and feel 1000000x more real than the prequels.Was all the handmade sets and robots and odd costume design just too much work and time compared to CG?
>>219842877yes. CG made movies cheaper and quicker to make.that's why movies take forever to get made and cost more than ever.
Because interior shots are easier to control and make look real. Same reason the bar in Casablanca feels very dingy and realistic, but every outdoor scene feels cheap and corny.
puppets are a lost art
>>219843613>puppetsC3PO was a dude in a costume
>>219843613Yeah. Practical effects are a dead art, more or less.
>>219843634We're all puppets
>>219843634>C3PO was a dude in a costumeSo was R2D2.And BB8 in the sequels.
>>219843613>>219843643Rocky in Project Hail Mary is a puppet
>>219843751How come? Did Sylvester Stallone refuse to return to the role?
>>219843634And that dude started out as a puppeteer.
>>219843714
>>219843784Is becoming a puppet considered a promotion for a puppeteer?
>>219843784>And that dude started out as a puppeteer.Anthony Daniels was never a puppeteer. He started out as a stage actor.
>>219843841Anthony Daniels was the name of the puppet. The whole thing was an act.
>>219843859>The whole thing was an act.Bullshit. Star Wars actually happened. A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away. They say so in the intro. No idea how George Lucas got his hands on the filmed material though.

>>219842877the prequels have an enormous amount of practical effects, sets, miniatures and so on in them, you are just extremely suggestible so the "prequels are all cgi" meme has caused you to see real things as computer effects
>>219843913The prequels' visual problem is not a lack of practical effects.It's also not that it has a high amount of CG.The problem is that the CG it has looks ugly as fuck.
>>219843841Anthony Daniels started out as an obnoxious faggot and his mother told him he should be a tage actor because the only people as insufferable as he was were stage actors.
>>219844375>his mother told him he should be a tage actorPretty sure his parents pushed him to study law, actually. British law no less!
>>219843968The problem is they decided to make everything look like shitty cgi so the shitty cgi wouldn’t stand out as much
>>219842877They're both the same thing, you managed to psyop urself effortlessly. see >>219843078
>>219842877It seems like Lucas was fucked from the moment he decided to move forward with a prequel trilogy. If star wars is all about the skywalker family, as lucas says, there's no real tension because we know what happens to everyone. Some new characters need to have interesting arcs or else there's nothing. The lengths people go to enjoy Darth Maul, Count Dooku, Jar Jar, or Mace Windu as characters is a major indictment of all prequel OC. The thing to do would be to cut the jedi council almost completely. They should've been shadowy archwizards, with Yoda keeping his mystique. Obi and Qui-god dialogue can easily relay everything from the council. Mysterious council = mysterious jedi ambassadors. Instead of the council they should've given Windu a detective story like the second film, he prowls coruscant searching for the phantom menace. That makes him a real character with an unknown future. Then in the second movie Windu can discover the clones and . . . is this really the time for fan service? Do fans want Boba Fett's father to be every person in the clone wars? I would make the bones scarier like they're actually five year old mega manchildren or whatever. The Count Dooku character should've been undercover as a jedi and he should've been a rival to 2nd film Anakin. The current character is superfluous. A treacherous and arrogant jedi would represent the aspects of the jedi order that Darth Vader eventually rebels against, as it currently plays they did nothing wrong. There, I fixed it. Fire up the AIs, thanks for reading my social media
>>219843809Dick status?
>>219845597the prequels were not made for fans of the OTthey were made for the new generation to expand upon the story of anakin/darth vader
>>219846585The new generation watch the prequels first and before OT because they're retarded and don't understand the concept of a prequel
>>2198436133D models are puppets it is the puppeteers are now people controlling them in the digitial world not with pieces of strings it is more advanced complex and impressive now.
>>219846585then they probably should have featured at least one new character with a story
>>219846906and it looks like shit pajeet
