RotS - live action or animation movie? (Spoilers)

[Captain Tagon]

Well, if what I hear about the Tomb Raider costuming is correct, you're in good company with Angelina Jolie!

The giant lizard was horrible frankly. LotR had better integration. (I mean, people complained about the water at Isengard, but that had nothing on Ep 1-3!)

LotR was horrible too. I'd say they were equally horrible, but the prequels have so much CGI that they come off much better, even though the two series have a comparable number of bad scenes.

 

[Vocenoctum]

There were part of RotS where I personally thought the CG was horrible. Most any scene with the clone troopers in it. And the scene at the beginning where Dooku dropped the piece of railing on Obi-Wan.

But I actually liked the giant riding lizard.

What about CG Palpatine? In his Saber battle with Yoda, Yoda looked more real!

 

[Davelozzi]

Probably most of the Jedi were live folks, too. Until they got wiped out by the forces of CG.

I could be wrong, but I think that the twi'lek jedi (and other twi'leks) were real people, judging by the fact that the coloration and texture of their head tales didn't match the rest of their skin so well and it looked like they were held on by the headress.

That's just silly there are no green or blue people

 

[Desdichado]

How many actual, real actors are on screen in Revenge of the Sith, in total? Ten? Half a dozen? Less? Was I the only one to notice that nearly everything in the movie was CG?

Absurd hyperbole. Here's the full cast credits; larger than most movies.

[Captain Tagon]

I don't see the bad CG comparisons between this film and LotR. I can't recall any moments in LotR where the CG was so bad it completely shocked me out of suspension of disbelief. AotC on the other hand it seemed like every five minutes something so bad looking popped up that it reminded me I was watching a movie.

God dammit. I'm not coming back in here until after June 6th. That's when some of us will be seeing this flick.

Yeah, yeah, my fault for even reading a thread about RotS. You'd think people could control themselves a little bit, considering there are 4,000,000,001 threads with ***SPOILER*** in the title.

Like this one should have.

Man this gets on my nerves. It's like someone turning on the Howard Stern show and then whining about being offended by it. If you click on a thread about Star War, it's probably safe to assume that there's going to be a spoiler or two mixed in there. If you really don't want to be spoiled the don't read any threads with Star Wars as the subject. Seems pretty simple.

Quasqueton, I added spoiler to the title anyway; can't hurt to do so.

And Cutter, it probably wouldn't be a bad plan to not lookin any of the SW3 Threads until you got to see it - It's the way I survived until the weekend, myself. It's an easy thing to forget about spoilers after the release date. Just speaking personally, mind you.
