You should do a challenge to see who can make the best worst VFX shot

"There's style to thi-"
>dead silence

Got a good chuckle from that, thanks Wren 😂

Self aware artists can't make Good Bad movies. Most of the cheap CGI horror movies are made by self aware people, so they feel bland. True Good-Badness comes from a mixture of overconfidence, incompetence, and lack of self awareness.

_"they should have hired REAL nephews"_ That got me so good 😆

[madjangler]

I kind of can’t believe you haven’t done any Doctor Who episodes. Since 2005, every season has excellent examples of good, bad and interesting effects. Great for talking about working under a budget!

[BelairPedicab]

I love how broken wren is in this episode. Neil Breen broke him and he never came back.

Challenge idea: have the participants make Zach King-style visual effect sequences. Maybe in teams of two? Or individually? Judged by Zach King if he's up for it.

You guys are gonna have a field day with Ferrari (2023). Hahaha

Check out the glass they're talking about at 16:27, the glass itself gets locked into the plate but then she picks it up so it doubles!

The Bad CGI Gator segment reminded me of an episode of King of the Hill where Hank Hill purposefully tries to make his house fail an inspection for insurance reasons or something; but the inspector sees right through it and commends him by saying that it would take a true craftsman who knows his stuff and takes care of his home perfectly to create such a "bad" condition for his house.

Thank you, Corridor.
Every time a human being learns about Neil Breen, the world becomes just a little bit better.

Thank you.

With Neal Breen we have a lovely union of So Bad it’s Good and VFX reacts! Love it!

I live like 45 minutes from Morongo and have seen their MCU play out in real time watching local cable TV with my parents. Glad these nightmare morphs are getting started. I can't be the only one traumatized by these. 😂

Sam's face when he's laughing is so funny, it always makes me laugh everytime. It's so infectious lol

[MFKitten]

I think the bad cgi gator needs to be thought of as if it actually exists in-universe as-is.

[xGamermonkeyx]

That bad GCI gator is a really interesting one because it's very clearly the artists riding a very careful line of fulfilling the brief while also adding in enough competency there that they can say "hey I did the DOF or compositing on Bad CGI Gator" and it's actually a decent piece to put in your showreel lmao.

Seeing Wren's introduction to Neil Breen just made my whole weekend!

[SandarianMD]

I absolutely loved the amount of mental brick walls Wren went through in this video 😂😂
Wrens a fantastic human being

[EightThreeEight]

Wren looks well and truly disturbed throughout this episode.

[langleymneely]

The noise they keep making every time there’s a morph/transition in the casino MCU commercials almost made me choke on my food from laughing so hard! Like they are powering up or taking a dump! 😂🤣
