You genuinely cant trust any scene in Ant Man or Avengers level films because even beyond digital de-aging and makeup, most actors have had digital makeup clauses in their contracts for years VFX studios you've never heard of, under very strict NDAs have been taking out crowsfeet and forehead wrinkles for like a decade+ now. This has mostly been for guys on a Tom Cruise and Will Smith level of fame but I wouldn't be surprised of everybody in the MCU gets a bit of it done

It just came to mind what a good little ride the Lava Barge could be at Star Wars Land or whatever its called. Walk down a few hallways chased by stormtroopers while cast member IG-11 gets you out of some scripted close calls, then a video screen where blacksmith lady tells you to choose a sacred weapon and you pick one of 4 or so blaster rifles, then its like an on-rails arcade shooter while you go down the lava barge and IG-11 does the sacrifice at the end... And its an easter egg but if you know the secret u can make R2 go swole and be sexy arms and legs R2 and it just auto shoots the bad guys so you can explore the barge more easily. Mandalorian does it again!

Arglebargle III posted:The flamethrower guy wasn't the plot giving way to the force, it was straight up nonsense. The whole point of a flamethrower is that you don't have to walk in the door at all. The flame trooper killed himself by entering the doorway. A stormtrooper being terrible at using their gun is pretty on-point

Owlbear Camus posted:I'm guessing it's some combination of Herzog not being able to commit to the shooting schedule required to be a main villain and being almost 2 decades older than espisoto just not being able to convey the physicality of a villain we will buy as a threat to the hero. I think they really wanted him for the trailer narration and everything else was just a bonus

Rabbit Hill posted:So about Baby Yoda being a tangible puppet and not CGI (or mostly not CGI?)... was it an animatronic puppet, an OG-Yoda muppet-style puppet, a marionette on strings, a mix of all three? they probably have a ton of different versions. Small puppet ones the actors can hold, maybe even operate themselves, a version on the end of a green pole for longer distance walking shots, a 2/3x larger version for hero closeups maybe

They're shocked by Baby Yoda's powers not because they've never once heard of the Force, but because it's the equivalent of a weird child in a crib turning water into wine with a touch while bleeding from the hands. then alcoholic uncle cant stop shaking the cribib "Dd..do the hand ThiNG!!.we ALL s...WE SAW IT u little gently caress.... cmon"

They probably just have some process that can extract Force Ability from things. And its really difficult to do, but Yoda species work like universal donors. And if its alive you can use it like a replenishing IV drip that actually gives non-force havers some sort of abilities if injected long-term. OR you can kill it and use the corpse as a 1 time supply that still works but obviously isnt as good as the living creature which can just be farmed.

zoux posted:Nothing is more microcosmic of the SW fandom than the physics whining about one of the most stunning visual scenes in any of the nine movies (I'm assuming, I haven't seen TROS). In the theater I was in you could hear the audience breathe in when it happened, total silence besides that. it is a genuinely beautiful scene. but all debate surrounding it could have been killed if they just had leia close her eyes and touch a window while looking at the ship or some horseshit like that like, after watching that its not really crazy to wonder why an X-wing couldnt just fly into the deathstar, or why those Mon Calamari ships from R1 arent just pushing space doritos into eachother every time. that star destroyer crash scene is the best drat scene in Rogue One, even if it kinda 's the rest of their military tactics

There's just no logical reason some dedicated x wing pilot didn't kamikaze into the death star vent hole at light speed. Entire plots are negated and minimized to silliness and poor planning once that sort of thing can just be done. If you don't have a better reason for it happening once, then never again ever other than "oowee that would be real tricky to pull off twice" then maybe just don't pull that string Even if it will make for a pretty scene that will garner CRITICAL ACCLAIM

I think Disney is a bog-standard corporate entity and they are going to go whole-hog into their streaming shows because That's what people like now and they're all going to be prequel stories about main-characters that everybody is sick of, or WAY too invested in emotionally to enjoy from an objective standpoint. They will 100% misinterpret why people liked Mandalorian

Its worth it though, the flexibility is insane https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hjb-AqMD-a4&t=623s start at like 10 minutes in to this vid detailing similar technology, watch how they shoot the scene with a mid-level quality VFX background, then for safety shoot a greenscreen pass perfectly synced to the camera movement to appear as if the green BG is a massive set, but its a little square moving to fill the camera frame. The bike is still reflecting the loving trees from the LCD screen with the green background. Brilliant. That sort of poo poo is what makes it so seamless, all the reflections are there still. The light spill really comes from the fake backgrounds

Calaveron posted:People don’t understand that baby Yoda can only be as expressive as a stiff muppet face can emote. It’s cute because it doesn’t smile or frown or anything, all it can do is coo and move its ears and the rest is projection on the viewer's part. People drawing him expressively don’t get it and its almost explicitly not cute. like the sparse hair on the head could easily have read like a naked mole rat sorta thing, the wrinkling, all the yodas have big ears and they were never "cute" But they made the eyes these giant black circles and all of the rest becomes something else and it all works together. He doesn't have a body form either really, he's always cloaked. It's just a bundle of cute face and tiny hands messing with your ship. Really genius design work.
