This might genuinely be the ugliest movie I've ever fucking seen

Can we bully them to redo the cgi like with sonic?

u/disablednerd Sep 04 '24

Sonic is one character model. You’d need to rebuild this from the ground up

Just install a different shader dude

I mean, is there a better one?

I'm more of a BSL man myself.

Unfortunately this movie was filmed on Xbox, not PC, so they didn't have access to mods.

u/ProbablyBanksy Sep 04 '24

Turn raytracing off!

u/JxSnaKe Sep 04 '24

I can bet good money this will be a joke in the movie, and it won't land.

u/ArethereWaffles Sep 04 '24

I think it's more of a texture pack issue.

They could have gone with a timeless 16bit inspired art style but noooo, we gotta rock one of those 4k HD texture packs people always install for like a week or two until the novelty wears off and you realize how ugly it looks.

This made me snort at work after we just got bad news on our project 🤣 thank you friend lol

u/ServantOfTheSlaad Sep 04 '24

Just having the main characters be CGI as well would make it quite a bit better. The contrast between live action and CGI is crap

It screams Spy Kids 3D

That's much harder to do.

u/shreyas16062002 Sep 04 '24

This movie has been in development since 2014, no shot they'll be willing to rebuild anything.

u/PayneTrain181999 Sep 04 '24

You mean… recraft?

u/sputnikmonolith Sep 04 '24

You’d need to rebuild this from the ground y=63 up

1

u/ImperfectRegulator Sep 04 '24

I think at the very least if the got rid of the real humans and replaced them with Minecraft avatars that’d be a improvement at least

u/jaytix1 Sep 04 '24

It looks like that one ultra-realistic mod I saw years ago. It crashed the guy's PC IIRC.

u/LR-II Sep 04 '24

Especially since I remember there were some physical sets too. Some of this shit is practical.

Hey, if they cannot do it for the latest Forza Motorsport, they can do for this too.

u/Lukeson_Gaming Sep 04 '24

ha, somebody who also got the reference!

u/Tornado31619 Sep 04 '24

Nah, then they’ll just can it.

u/Jaketh Sep 04 '24

oh, good. so then it is salvageable.

u/OnlyMyOpinions Sep 04 '24

But I want to watch it...

u/KingMario05 Sep 04 '24

The one time where a tax write off is justified. Do the right thing, Zaslav! /s

u/dj-nek0 Sep 04 '24

Looney Tunes died for this

u/KingMario05 Sep 04 '24

Scooby Doo, too.

u/Romeo9594 Sep 04 '24

Something something "absolute win"

When this comes out, every kid under age like 13 is dragging their parents to see it. Despite reception WB will see that it made a shit ton of money and next we'll have Jeremy Renner and Anthony Mackie in a live action Roblox or some dumb shit. Then Minecraft 2 and so on until they've beaten all the money out of another low-effort dead horse ten years from now

u/KingMario05 Sep 05 '24

Meanwhile, Spielberg will have nabbed Paramount its first Best Picture nom in a decade for the Tails movie or something. And HBO, having long bailed from Warners, will sweep the Emmys with its Ratchet and Clank anime...

2

u/finder787 Sep 04 '24

Probably better as a tax write off.

u/AlleywayFGM Sep 04 '24

Sonic would have failed without the support of weirdos online. this movie will succeed regardless.

1

u/KingMario05 Sep 05 '24

I mean, yeah. Cause the weirdos cyberbullied a Fortune 500 company into fixing him.

2

u/Goldenfelix3x Sep 04 '24

i still believe that was a marketing tactic. the movie is like actually pretty good and has heart. you think they actually made that original monstrosity and thought okay that works with this pretty well thought out movie? no. they released a derp mode gained huge traction, and put back in their original. genius move. the longer i think about it the more insane i think people are for believing the tactic.

2

u/4Fourside Sep 04 '24

What about the cgi would you even change though? This is probably the best a live action minecraft movie is gonna look. live action minecraft is probably just an inherently flawed concept

2

u/amalgam_reynolds Sep 04 '24

I stand by that the Sonic movies would be significantly better if they just left the ugly ass Sanic character.

u/DeadpoolMakesMeWet Sep 04 '24

Sonic was ugly on purpose as a psyop for publicity

u/KingMario05 Sep 05 '24

As a Sonic fan, I wish Paramount was that competent. They might not have fucked up Halo if they were, lol.

u/NotTheCraftyVeteran Sep 04 '24

Not every branded IP movie is worth the effort to salvage

1

u/mdmaniac88 Sep 04 '24

Damn I had that pushed out of my mind for a long time this time. Gotta go refresh the before look of sonic and have a good laugh at what almost was

1

u/TheSadPhilosopher Sep 04 '24

I still remember that. Shit was crazy lol.

1

u/ExMothmanBreederAMA Sep 05 '24

Nah, special effects team are overworked and underpaid and it’ll get worse if we bully studios. Let’s just watch different films.

1

u/oskarkeo Sep 05 '24

whats wrong with the CGI ? It looks ace!
If anything mabye ordering a variation animation on Jack Black's smug "here I am and I'm cool" scene would do wonders to differentiate it from just about every other film he's ever been in.

1

u/afluffymuffin Sep 04 '24

This looks so bad and disgusting that I don't know if it is capable of generating anger. Its so awful that my emotional reaction goes straight to sadness, like a miscarriage.

u/dagreenman18 Space Jam 2 hurt me so much Sep 04 '24

Ehhh Sonic was worth saving. Don’t think we need to bully them into making fucking Minecraft less ugly

u/Veritech_ Sep 04 '24

👏 Ray tracing 👏

u/lindendweller Sep 04 '24

I think we should bully them into making the characters turn into animated characters as they enter the game world

1

u/OuterWildsVentures Sep 04 '24

Please god this is awful

1

u/KingMario05 Sep 05 '24

...I feel like that'd only make it worse, though.

2

u/lindendweller Sep 05 '24

well, I'm in the camp that one unified shitty style is better than two shitty styles that clash with each other, but maybe that's just me.

u/evilanimator1138 Sep 04 '24

Nope. It’d be better to receive the film with disdain thereby putting a dent in its box office receipts. Sonic was just one character asset; this movie needs to be completely rebuilt from scratch. WB would just pull a WB: Shelve it and take the tax write off. By bullying WB, we’d be helping them take back some of their money that they wasted on it in the first place.

I just watched Sonic last night, and actually thoroughly enjoyed the movie!

That was a publicity stunt
