Default Re: Star: Wars or Trek

With those two example videos, I still agree with KG. When watching that first clip (from Episode 1, no?), nothing about it to me screams that the movie came from a bygone era of movie effects (except perhaps the hairdos ). It all looks real, probably because it all was real effects (except the lasers) and done extremely well. The ships were real miniatures. The explosions were real explosions. The end result in my opinion looks very believable to this day.

Then the 2nd video. Yes, the worlds they created in Ep. 1-3 far surpassed anything they could create in Ep. 4-6 in detail and depth. But the problem is, every bit of each one of those scenes in that video look just like a computer generated them. They look animated, when animation should make you forget that it's animated. Nothing about them feels real. It's all too perfect. Then couple that with the films, in my opinion, using CGI as a crutch for a lack of real character development or plot, and it just makes things much worse.
