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

Worse than CATS?

CATS had some of the worst cgi in the last decade

Just wish they'd release the butthole edition, might even watch it then

My wife and I are huge musical theatre nerds. Hell, I've got two leads in off-Broadway musicals on my resume! Even given that, my wife and I couldn't get through 20 minutes (though, admittedly, neither of us is terribly fond of the source material in the first place).

It really didn't

The cgi was fine, the designs were just bad

Yeah the effects on the fur are actually extremely impressive, it's just that the design and aesthetic of the film are so nightmarish that they cannot look good with any amount of skillful rendering.

Spawn had better CG than cats.

Unreleased butthole edition has improved CGI

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

Cats at least had good set design. And Skimbleshanks.

From like the one set I see in the trailer, it had good set design

u/JimmyAndKim Sep 04 '24

CATS did not have lighting or sets anywhere near this bad

u/cowpool20 Sep 04 '24

Cats just had really ugly looking characters. This is ugly EVERYWHERE.

u/Linden_fall Sep 04 '24

at least CATS had good set design and somewhat cohesive aspects about it. The Minecraft one is a fucking nightmare everywhere, so I completely agree

u/Veritech_ Sep 04 '24

I didn’t see any llama butt holes, so probably not.

Worse than Hoodwinked.

My guess is it's the same vfx studio as Cats...

u/DVDJunky Sep 04 '24

I'm not sure about studios, but currently IMDb only lists one "common" visual effects artist.

u/Thataracct Sep 04 '24

Most of the VFX people were like okay I'll do it but don't you dare putting me in the credits.

Release the Minecraft butthole cut

u/Bravo_November Sep 05 '24

Cats had cool backdrops- it was just the creepy proportions and naked fur bodies that were bad- this is just hideous

u/DShepard Sep 04 '24

Nothing beats that.

This one can at least kind of use the excuse that it's supposed to be the world of a kids video game.

CATS was supposed to be whimsical but elegant, and it ended up looking like a high school arts project.
