10 More Terrible CGI Moments In Big Budget Movies

Skinny Rock, dodgy lizards, and other times big budget films had horrendous CGI.

I came here knowing The Flash would have a spot: honestly surprised it wasn’t higher

I was an extra in the bull scene of "Red Notice" and let me tell you, neither the bull NOR Dwayne and Ryan were in the same bullring. The director would yell "the bull is doing this" or "Dwayne is doing that", so we'd have to act surprised or shocked. The ring was literally empty whilst filming. Plus, we weren't that many, they simply shot the same crowd from different angles and then multiplied us during post production 😁

I wonder if the Black Adam thing was less about shoddy CGI and more about how just about everyone knows Dwayne Johnson isn’t that skinny in real life.

When Captain America first released Chris Evans was not as popular so it was more believable to see him as a tiny little runt.

I always think it's funny that after the backlash from fans the people who worked on "THE FLASH" claimed that the bad CGI was on purpose which we all know it wasn't.
Thats just the excuse they used to try and take off some of the heat from angry fans.

If that’s what Barry sees while running, I do not want his powers

[PaulRubino]

Hollywood has totally lost the flick on how to tell compelling stories. They seem to be trying to wow us with "amazing" CGI, which, when you're watching it, just comes off as a cartoon. It's not believable, it's not engrossing, it's just special effects.

The Flash has the worse cgi I have ever seen, the babies at the start and the cgi cameos at the end, literally PlayStation 2 graphics: what they spent 300m I’ll never know

The battle sequence in the Phantom Menace. Looks like it was fought on a lumpy piece of billiard cloth, rather than on a grassy field. The sort of low resolution background you might expect from a 1980's video game.

CorridorCrew just did an entire video focused on The Flash. In their opinion, the problem was the studio refusing to give the VFX crew enough time to do a good job. "Effects can be good, fast, or cheap. Pick two."

Honestly I don't think the Uncharted one really looks that bad, and while yes they used a lot of green screen...of course they did? What, did you think they'd launch a bunch of garbage from the sky to get realistic effects? I think it's pretty cool that they created so many props for that scene for Tom to work with practically.

I see nothing wrong with the uncharted plane sequence other than wonky physics.

[ejgoldlust]

I thought Cheetah in WW84 was bad wire work, not bad VFX, though I agree the darkness was a pretty lame way of covering up all the ropiness either way

[danielsantiagourtado]

Floating head in love and thunder takes the cake

[simontrebel]

Skinny Steve Rogers was also an eyesore in The First Avenger. Just saying

[Kermit]

Steve in the back of the car with Peggy Carter. The shot from Peggy's side of the car makes him look like a kid

The James Bond team did an IRL hanging out of the back of a cargo plane stunt in The Living Daylights waaaay back in 1987. One of my favourite stunts of all time and still looks amazing today.

So after three failures, maybe we just stop trying to CGI Dwayne "the Dwayne" Johnson?

[LOLrigole]

Honestly, I don’t really care if the effects are top notch. If the story is drawing me in, they can paint the background on cardboard for all I care.

[Richardiba]

That "Last Jedi" scene actually turned out quite well.

[danieljob]

Wow! I never realised just how spoiled you've all become because of Weta Digital. Not everybody can afford to sink 50% of the budget into CGI you know! 🤨
