New Chucky movie coming out. Looks stupid compared to the original.



Fake af.

I miss the 80s when movies had dedicated artists working on the props.
 
CGI is better than ever, and so is prop making. The problem is chucky's new face approaches the uncanny valley. Your brain is telling you its a shitty cgi person and not a doll.

The second problem is no one needed a chucky remake.

The original gave me mightmares as a kid, I watched it when I was five. I still remember the nightmares.

With that being said, this looks interesting in the fact that they made him into a "smart Chucky" I probabbly won't watch it, the original is a classic, and the kid in it was even younger.
 
I'm sorry but I just can't take Aubrey Plaza in a serious role, Parks and Recs ruined that for me. However, I am willing to give this movie a shot and I think the trick is to go into the theater with zero expectations.
 
The problem is CGI works best when you use real practical effects then fill in the background or details with CGI.

A good example of bad CGI would be Captain Marvel where they literally CGId her face while she was falling. It was so out of place you can't help but go "oh that don't look right"

Compare the newest Freddy Kreuger to the old one. The iconic wall bulge scene worked so well because it was real (sort of) . They used latex or something to get the effect. In the newer one the CGI was lacking.

The most impressive CGI in Game of Thrones wasn't dragons or giants, it was the backgrounds and settings. The problem is Hollywood relies too much on it and makes it the focal point when the technology isn't there yet. It can be an amazing tool when used sparingly.

Right.. Maybe if GOT spent less money on dragon scenes explosions and fire they could have afforded better writers for the last few seasons.

Good film has subtlety.
 
CGI has made incredible advances in the last decade, but it has to be used properly with the right background. Lots of progress on CGI porn too, so I hear.

Agree on both points.

Chucky needs to be an actual animated puppet for it to work. Especially close ups. It’s creepy puppet that makes it work. My kids are terrified of that animatron from Daft Punks Technologic. My daughter legit freaks if I play that video

A CGI version wouldn’t be the same

They can CGI the distance shots if needed.

She was great in Legion, bro.

I very much doubt they'll ever overcome the uncanny valley.
 
This era of remakes is one of the worst trends to ever hit Hollywood, so sick of seeing the same thing done over and over. Feel like I haven't seen an original plot in years
 
CGI was used with great effect in the lotr trilogy but it also had a ton of practical effects and care of the product thrown in. When Peter Jackson didnt really even wanna do the hobbit movies he moved to almost all CGI and it looked and was terrible.
 
Gun shot wounds get me the most.

Pre 2000 everyone used blood squibs and they looked fucking awesome

Now we have that CGI shit they use in John Wick etc, it's fucking lazy and looks shit
