Just finished watching 2012 and yesterday watched Law Abiding Citizen. The latter was 1 of best movies I seen this year and 2012 had some amazing effects altho some were not very well digitised.

Not that I condone any illegal activity, but should you stumble across any r5 lines on pb... they are both worth a look biggrin.gif

ahhh tsk tsk monkey.. such a common response.. blame the cg. you do realize that somewhere, the director of I am legend, said he wanted stretchy monsters that look like cg. cuz if he didn't say that then they wouldn't look like that. i hear this arguement all the time that people would love to see sfx back in film, but the reality is, that todays audiences are way smarter then they used to be, and you would never get away with sfx. almost every movie i work on tries to do a bunch of the fx practically, and almost every time we sit at my work looking at this piece of shit on screen going why did they even bother. a movie i can't mention the name of, just spent 2 million pounds creating a puppet to go in a shit load of shots for the film. we are now redoing the entire thing with a cg creature because the puppet looks ridiculous. the thing is, any of those cg monsters in i am legend could have looked photoreal if thats what they wanted, and were willing to pay for. you have to sit around and listen to the directors and producers talk about this shit and what they want. they'll all go "oh it has to look photoreal", and then the next week they are asking us to do entirely crazy things that will never look real but they think its a great idea so we have to do it anyways. as i said, it can be real if they want.
look at dark knight and bourne ultimatum. in both movies, almost every single shot has cg. batman is completely cg in more shots then he isn't. bourne is never shot in any of the locations, ever, with the exception of waterloo station, but even that is only about 20% shot there. but those guys pay for that shit.

and do realize mate I was never saying that people can't enjoy a movie that isn't in it's original format. i agree with you, that simply isn't true. tbh i download movies all the time. however what I DID say, was that someone who hasn't watched it in it's original format, shouldn't be critisizing the visuals.

ps - i am legend is a shit movie because the script was shit... well before anything else made it shit
