@Hurrican3AJ1 What? CGI nowadays does NOT look more realistic than these models and its still incredibly obvious when its being used in a movie. When CGI was first being used in movies like Jurassic Park and T2 it looked great, probably because of how incredibly little they used it, but nowadays its the biggest intellectually lazy crutch used. I cant imagine how bad these movies would have looked if Lucas was able to go the prequel route with CGI
@phantombest1220 However sometimes CG makes the shot more 'clean'. Maybe that's why Lucasfilm Ltd or ILM mixed up between CGI and original bluescreen shots in 1997 Special Edition or 2004 DVD release of the Original Trillogy.
This 2004 documentary is called "Empire of Dreams: The Story of the 'Star Wars' Trilogy." It was produced by Kevin Burns and Edith Becker, and narrated by Robert Clotworthy. The 15-part playlist ID is PLBFFF374F493658D8. You can find it by searching my playlists, by LoudCitizen.
they wanted the voice of brain to be darth vader 0_0 but then i mean james earl jones, orsen wells or morgan freeman or sean conry all could easily be the voice of god lol
I think he is talking about Mel Blanc, he was known as "the man with 1,000 voices"
For you youngins here, Mel did bugs bunny and daffy duck to name a VERY few. He also did the voice of the dad in the movie "Strange Brew". For those of you who are old enough to recall that.
i was always skeptical about vader on episode III, so now i ask the following question - did jones also made the voice-over of darth vader in episode III?
Fans can eat my balls. Star Wars succeeded that's all that matters. Do you really think George gives a damn whether his true fans like or don't like sequels?? Star Wars is one of the most successful franchises of all time anyway. So stop eating pizza and realize how hard is to make as EPIC as this.
why do some people not want to accept it. New SW movies are terrible... Why would you want to change the greatest space adventure into a muppet show that feels terrible even to regular computer gamers
I want to be a filmmaker when i get out of college. If all else fails, it'd be awesome to be a sound designer, especially for a science fiction movie. Ben Burtt sounds likes he has a blast when he works
@EuthanizeReligion Although I totally agree with you in the sense of current CGI, I must dissagree with you as CGI is getting more accurate and accurate by the year. CGI will look realistic at some point in time, the question is when, and will you care.
@Masterlink981 The argument is better for jobs is of the point, films are art and you should do what ias te best for the films not econmy, plus thiousads of peoplw work on that CGI that is incredibily hard to make!!!!!!!!!!!!
@reviewreviewer1 Dude, people work hard to make "toys" as opposed to CGI. This movie was made with no CGI. Impressive, isn't it? He only used CGI in 1997 to get stuff that wasn't in the original because of the budget.
@Masterlink981 Well actually people do work hard on CGI cause it means they have to create everything from the basic image themselves often one shot takes multiple hoyurs to make ande the CGI for an entire filn takes months too make. A movie with no CGI isn`t as impressive as one with only CGI cause in one with only CGI everything is created in the mind.
@conman2317 Well wjhat about some of the curret CGI likw most of the ILM wirk, I mean in the prequels it was just perfect fr the most part, or T2 and Back to the future!!!!!!!!!
@reviewreviewer1 T2 and Jurassic Park had fantastic CGI, but it was also barely ever used and done at time CGI became the biggest crutch ever. The prequels did fucking horrible job with CGI, its a movie not a video game. Its so unbelievably easy to see that 99% of the backgrounds were CGI and it looks so fake and bad and ruins any chance of emersion that the original films pulled off so brilliantly
@conman2317 Real things STILL look 100 times better than CGI today, the best directors understand that and use CGI sparingly, like Christopher Nolan, or Spike Jonze's Where the Wild Things Are
@EuthanizeReligion im sorry i usually ignore dumbass comments on you tube. but i could not let yours go. Why is it funny that something that IS real looks more real than something thats NOT. And the props they used in the movies were not toys. they were highly crafted models. works of art. not toys.
they are not a mess.. they are just not the same. That's why the old fans don't like the new films. Like fans of anything else, they think it all has to be exactly the same
i always wanted a real lightsaber when i was young and i thought by 2009 we would have them by now fuck global warming and carbon footprint crap all the best scientists should be concentrating on is making light sabers.
1:39 - Glad to hear we're not the only ones resenting the CG-only stance movies are taking now in favor over blowing shit up and slicing that footage in.
I had no idea James Earl Jones was a stutterer. Anyway, he was a better pick for the voice than Prowse. From the original fotage, Prowse could barely act.
hahaha that bit where they talk about Vader's Accent, Bill Bailey does a joke on one of his stand up dvds about it :P James earl jones, best voice ever :)
I freaked out the first time I saw this, because I remembered that as a kid I walked up to a guy wire and smacked it with a stout stick, and it sounded just like a blaster shot from ANH! I wish I could go back to the late 70's( I was seven when ANH came out )and take a couple of those Force FX lightsabers with me; there would be NO rest for anyone! The first sabers were basically flashlights with a blow-up blade, ala an air mattress. Sadness...
but that would be weird since they already casted luke and *SPOILERS* darth vader is his father and all...

LOL again. "Sure, they LOOK real ..."
Actually, I hate BAD modelling as much as I hate bad CGI, but CGI always looks bad.
What does a REAL "Super Star Destroyer Crash" (sic) look like? (I think there's some documentary footage around here somewhere, snicker.)
You're just a young person who's a bit hotheaded and eager to dispense with the past (like, y'know, where Star Wars comes from: 1977) .
