This is why Avatar CGI looks so good. The artists have like a decade to refine every little detail in every shot. Obviously that shouldn’t be the standard but even look at a movie like Dune. Incredible CGI and that movie was made on a normal timeline, the difference is the movie is shot first and then the CGI is made so the artists know exactly what they have to do instead of changing a scene 5 different times over the course of a month. This is a big reason why ‘The Creator’ looked so amazing. Movies need be planned out more instead of this shooting from the hip BS Marvel and DC do.

Marvel's CGI still pretty much holds up even today, the first Iron Man movie CGI still looks incredible and depends on the director and the management. Overall, DC's movies are often rushed in order to make their own cinematic shared universe like how Marvel did, but they rushed the story and so rushed everything else. DCEU itself had little long term planning, and I feel that is where the negative impact is. Each DCEU movie just feels lackluster, filler even because there just seems to be no ultimately goal (for the MCU, it was the Infinity Stones and the like).

As one of the VFX artists that worked on this (volumetric capture lead), thank you for not blaming us. haha It was a very difficult process that took up two years of my life, but overall, I'm proud of my work. My team oversaw the captures from point A to point B (stage to storage) and verified the quality. We worked on just about all of the dual-Ezra scenes. The choices of footage used, methods, and such were not ours to make. I'm sure they had their reasons. I can't say too much about the process, but there is a video put out by WB that goes more in depth of what we did. We worked with the footage on that circular black stage with all of the cameras. It was all experimental, bleeding edge tech, and by the time it was over, we made giant leaps in process and quality. It really is genius-level tech and I'm proud to have been a part of it. Side note about unionizing, I lost my job because of the strikes. It's fine though, as I landed on my feet, but my heart goes out to the others, my front-line compatriots. To the naysayers, it's all good. I respect your opinion.

Yeah! It’s OK to critique what is asking to be critiqued. Had there been better VFX, there would have been better critiques. It’s always been clear that bad VFX does not always mean bad VFX artists. That’s just one of many possibilities.

I actually worked very heavily on this, mainly the doubling part which was all done with volcap. Production was an absolute nightmare for this as it was all shot after with Ezra taking the place of the stand in. But it also fell in the middle of all Ezra's troubles so continuity was impossible

Do you know why WB/Discovery decided to begin production on The Flash roughly 2 months after Ezra Miller was seen chocking a woman on camera? The initial claim was that his troubles began after production started, but that’s patently untrue, though it is true for the other major crimes that were committed. The other thing is, Ezra Miller admitted to being bipolar before this film began production, with previous cast members mentioning times that there were highly uncomfortable moments in terms of working with Miller, also dating back to Miller’s role in Wallflower. That being said, I thoroughly understand the difficulties in what you and your team had to deal with. There’s an interview where the producers mentioned that they scoured KZread and digitally removed watermarks for the smaller images they used in the Chronobowl, which shows that WB didn’t really properly archive their clips for use in the film. With all that being said, I hope that this film is a catalyst for better treatment of the visual effects community because they unfairly took the brunt of the criticisms that were leveled at The Flash. Best Wishes and my sincere hope for better working conditions given that your work is the most integral in terms of film making, but sadly the most under appreciated.

Part of the kaleidoscope cgi issues in my eyes is the lighting. They are lighting up the bad models in bright lights. Even the batfleck had his face lit.

Reminds me of Jurassic Park. The scene of the TRex breaking through the fence was full CGI. But it looks amazing because it’s dark AND raining. You can cover up the textures and lines and then it looks real. Even by today’s standards. The directors are now so reliant on CGI that they expect it to do anything, so they fully light it up thinking it will look good. Instead of trying to hide it like they did back in the day.

Many of the lessons learned in JP (treat CGI like another set; record lighting data; storyboard ahead of time; etc.) have been watered down or lost entirely (DOPs rarely have any say in post production CGI these days). Despite the advances in technology, many productions treat CGI like an afterthought. The on-set and in-shop procedures have clear process workflows which only really work when key creatives are integrated and VFX personnel have the time and training to understand the nuances. So, we can still get great CGI VFX integrated with live action (see any of Blomkamp’s or Villeneuve’s films) but the whole process and technology has become so accessible that people without the head for it can have it in their films. At the end of the day, it’s just another brush on another canvas, and the result is about the artist, not the tool. Or, as they said in a certain recent blockbuster: “It’s not the plane. It’s the pilot.”

The CG babies were so hilarious, some of this shit I can't imagine an artist looking at and thinking it turned out well especially compared to some of the other CG that looks really good

It comes down more to the skill of the screenwriters and director to translate it as well as the trust or lack of trust the big wig producers have in the project. There are plenty of good live action adaptations of comics, books, manga, and even games. Even a series as cartoony and absurd as One Piece is smashing the Netflix top shows with it's live action. I watched this film not expecting much because the entire Snyder-verse has been one disappointment after another, especially as a DC fan.

I more just meant that I don't think something being adapted to a new medium is an excuse for it being bad. Most of the DC live action movies of the last decade have been objectively pretty terrible, and it has nothing to do with it being live action but rather Warner Bros trying to copy Marvel despite having drastically different types of characters. My favorite thing to come from DC live action recently is the Superman and Lois TV show. It portrays a Superman who isn't exactly like the comics but maintains a personality far more emblematic of the Superman we all grew up loving. It's a Superman full of hope and optimism, not a dark edgy character with no nuance like Man of Steel.
