Brilliant movie!

Everytime they add cgi it has to be over the top unrealistic physics, poor quality, and zero consistency. look at that thing flitting in and out of traffic ... old man has lightning reactions in the cgi section but in the original section he's crashing into stationary objects despite plenty of notice. then worst of all is the "cgi camera" doing things that a real camera could not - which might be ok if the whole movie had that style but this is just out of place.

71 not 76 You stupid bas-tard

who knows why I thought it was a Chaparral 🤷‍♂️

aka how to make the Posey Tube look 100x longer than it actually is

"Roadkill" meets "Jackass"!

Isn't it a cool future? Driving race car 🏎 What's wrong? Could you be more specific? I understand Only reason main character got away his budget got spent

CGI....WHY?

Love seeing my Caldecott Tunnel and Alameda Tube settings interchanged in this edit. 😘

76 wrong

Expected to see Jar-Jar jaywalking across!

Gostei do carro!

This movie was released in 1971 and not 1976.

Best scene of the movie! I do like the CGI even if others don't it enhances the mood.

I realize now why the CGI car looks fake. It moves too swoopy and predictable.The real car shudders and jolts. They are also using "depth of field" in an apparent attempt to increase realism, sadly makes the whole scene toy-like, and the high angles dont help...

That's the weirdest movie scene I ever watched

CGI vs. real car. The movie is a work of art. Can we appreciate it and get the point of what the flik is all about? That he used cgi in this release does NOT take away from the movie, kill the premise, give people cancer or any other malady one can come up with. And I would kill for those cars.

Its sad that the CG car work wasnt more in the tone of the original. Seems like George forgot that he shot with very long telephoto lenses and let the ILM kids play.

that from 1976?? that look rly great

If you are only here for the car, then go keep working hard, increasing production and being happy.

They replaced the Tonawanda thunder with a silly turbine sound.

it's not CG, it's SFX. there was no CG at the time this movie was made.

Its Lucas's vision... Personally i love the added bits. I got a real buzz out of this when i bought the dvd with the C,G,I, scenes. I didn't know they were on it until i watched it. So it was a really great surprise. If you don't like Lucas's ultimate vision of the movie then you can still watch the original untouched version, the one where at the time of filming Lucas was limited as to what he could create. (You have the choice).

Am I the only one here who came for the CAR? After all, nothing beats the real Lola T70 MK2 and MK3(B)

Am I the only one who thought this was really well done for something made 41 years ago?

They finally really did it. You maniacs! You CGi-ed it up! Ah, damn you! God damn you all to hell!

I didn't know that. Thanks. Now yes, it's wrong to damage an old movie with new tricks. Except for giving an HD image.

The CGI sequences are part of the digitally mastered dvd release of 2004. And that is what people complain about: the original atmosphere of the film was changed to some extent into the childish imagery of the second Star Wars trilogy. Lucas had made an adult movie and became immature afterwards.

Thanks Jalopnik! I have to watch this corny movie now.

I agree. Sadly, that's what some "creators" have in mind. "Oh!, use that computer software and do the best you can"; said the director to the 3D artist. Look, movies like Avatar, The Avengers and things like that is just "Visual Entertaiment" not the real concept of what a movie is. In THX 1138, the CGI scene were not all that bad, I mean, it was more magical than today to use a CGI scenes back then. They didn't use as an abuse of a resource, it fits good for its time. Saludos!

I'm much more bored about Big Movies that after 6 months show all their limits of Tv style graphic and electronic color correction...Look How The Titles are realized, in the past, by optical printer They are completely different... Look about Pablo Ferro or Saul Bass their works are not made by software their works are still much better than every super-overimposion created by tons of animators and digital painters!

C'mon guys!, stop bothering with CGI; that was made in 1971, more than 40 years ago!!!

FORTRAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I actually thought this was the best part of the movie.

@loudhvx Yep, I'm old school. The originals of most movies are usually unbeatable. Take 'The Manchurian Candidate' with Frank Sinatra... so much atmosphere, compared to the one with Denzel Washington. Or 'Day of the Jackal' which was a joke with Bruce Willis. Same goes with 'Failsafe' with the incomparable Henry Fonda, as opposed to the crappy remake with Richard Dreyfus. A lot of old movies are cheesy, but the great ones were genius which cannot be improved upon.

If you can, try to get a vhs copy of the film. It won't have the CGI Bullsh*t. As was mentioned, the non-cgi footage is so much more real, and gives the film it's characteristic, claustrophobic feel. The cgi car chase sequence, alone, destroys that feeling, and takes that air of the film away. Too bad.

It's wasn't enough that he ruined Star Wars, he has to gut this movie too. Like the original SW movies, part of the charm of this movie was it's gritty visual protrayal of that world. But then you get to this CGI car-chase scene, containing some of the worst CGI I've seen. The Lola looks absolutely CARTOONISH. As is so often the case with CGI, the movement is just way, way off. A Lola Can-Am doing a stoppie when the brakes are applied? Please. Bottom line, this scene is just awful.

George u fool stop the ghey CGI

THX was one of his first films that got him noticed, Lucas being the "Perfectionist" he tries to be, will always return to his classic work, and touch it up alittle, but when we think bout it, watching this film, shows people that Lucas can make a serious film, even if it is still "Sci-fi."

Before that unfortunately the showbusiness would forced one great director to became a sort of SantaClaus of CGI...

Love this car chase at the end, and the CGI, tied into it. This is all stuff Lucas wanted in his original movie, but technology, money/budget and time were the restrictions then, what I love the most bout this film is the fact that Lucas was more or less fresh out of film school at the time he did this.

Disagio!!

I LOVED the new remix film,much better than the star wars edits (muppets and plastic CGI),because SW.1 (pt4) was analog & needed that.But here the video PLUS new digital AUDIO is super sexy. I love the freeways parts because it looks like TOKYO! I think this is his best remix of his own works.Especially the cyborg scenes and other extra parts. Perhaps you have to have lived in Tokyo, and driven the industrial highways at night, to know what Bladerunner & THX1138 is really like. :)

The CGI stuff looks like a freeway on Coruscant.

lol i agree

Same thing is to say about Star Wars, re-edit to do Special Edition ,and we can say about King Kong .A lot of people that plays with PlayStation prefer CGI dynamics BUT the great State Of The Art of Willis O'Brian is uncomparable respect Colorization or CGI effects

you edited out the officers? what the hell for?

buah ah ah ah... ^_^ ma figurati se ti pigliano!
