Nowadays the only thing that really limits VFX is the time that can be spent on it, or in other words; the budget. If production companies are willing to pay for the time it takes to get the VFX perfect, they WILL BE PERFECT. Unfortunately, this doesn't always translate into a box office hit. Although cheap and poorly executed VFX can make a good movie bad, high-quality VFX won't make a bad movie good. Like the music in this video?

1. The Hobbit
From the offset, it was always going to be hard for "The Hobbit". The Lord of the Rings was a tough act to follow and stretching out, what was originally an average length book, into a trilogy, was always going to water things down.
What wasn't watered down was the VFX, Peter Jackson's own VFX house WETA digital took on the task, and in addition to Incredible CG environments, Digidoubles, CG water and CG fire, CG dwarfs, Orcs, and elves, WETA created the photoreal dragon Smaug. Not only did the dragon look so much like a "real" dragon, that it made us forget that real dragons don't exist, but they managed to make it talk like Benedict Cumberbatch without losing the magic.
2. Interstellar
After receiving somewhat mixed reviews but an almost general consensus that this film was too long and too complicated because instead of using fiction to explain their science, they tried to use science to explain their fiction.
What many people missed in this film were the incredible VFX that DNEG managed to produce. The jewel in their crown was Gargantua "The Black Hole". working alongside the theoretical scientist Kip Thorne, DNEG developed a new renderer called "Double Negative Gravitational Renderer" or "DNGR" which could map out how millions of light beams travel through the warped space-time surrounding a black hole. Kip Thorne and the DNEG team published a scientific study on how did this in February 2015.
3. The Lion King
Claims that "The Lion King" has "lost its soul" and "Become a National Geographic Documentary may be bad for the film but says a lot for the VFX.
MPC created 1500 shots of photorealistic animals that are so incredible that you are never quite sure which shots are real animals and which are CG, and they are all CG!
Disney's idea to remake all its animated classics using today's technology and VFX may seem like a great idea (especially to Disney's accountants and shareholders). but many feel that this is a "Money Grab" and that Disney has exchanged their childlike innocent imagination for Adult cynical realism.
4. Bladerunner 2049
Bladerunner 2049 is a sequel to the 1982 classic "Bladerunner". Making a sequel to a classic is always a daunting task, it creates so much speculation and hype that the movie is almost always going to fall short, and this would have been the case for Bladerunner 2049 had it not been for the VFX. 8 different companies worked together to created a stunning world that manages to keep you enthralled whilst the "Slow-burn" storyline unfolds before you. They are in fact so stunning that not only do you forget that you've been sat, watching for nearly 3 hours, but you realize you've had your mouth open too!
5. Avengers Infinity War
The Marvel Universe films have some insane VFX, and the majority of them have not only had good reviews but have done very well at the box office, however, for some reason, critics have been having a dig at Thanos. Digital Domain had Josh Brolin wear a mo-cap suit as well as a helmet that had 2 HD cameras running 60 frames a second to capture his facial performance. Although the most amount of work went into the eyes because the eyes are actually what convey the real emotion, a mouth may smile but if the eyes don't sparkle, there is no happiness.
6. Planet of the Apes
Rise of the Planet of the Apes was criticized for the lack of reality in the lead ape character "Caesar". However, in the latter two films of the trilogy, this was no longer the case. Weta digital proved why many consider them the "Kings of the CG Animal Kingdom", not only were the CG apes 100% photorealistic, but they expressed emotion, so much so that you don't just sympathize with them but you find yourself siding with them against the human race...

I am a huge LOTR and The Hobbit fan. I am delighted that you chose The Battle of five Armies as your number 1
Thanos looked amazing for the most part. Very well done
Sad reality is that the vfx guys never got the spotlight they deserve....They are overshadowed by actors/ a-listers. They don't even get profit share & always forced to work on tight deadlines & limited budget 😑
The same happens with the anime industry. Animators get the short end of the stick while VA's get the real money.
@@SenaSLaYeRx they should create their own stuff.
the screenplay is the most important thing anyway.
That's the reality of most crafters who work for others.
I'd still argue that the VFX ppl make very good 6 figure salaries and get to do what they love. Unfortunately its not the VFX companies that bring the viewers for a movie, it's the director and actors.
I'll add that Disney's biggest issue with real Lion King was that it was too real and animals dont portray human emotions well. The choice not to exaggerate facial expressions to convey more human like qualities while the animals still talk like humans was a miss.
I felt the same
I was hoping Alita the battle Angel would make the cut. The CGI was insanely awesome

I just realized that Avatar was on the decade before...... 😮😮
12 years passed and it stills compete with the actual VFX techniques!
What about the first transformers? Came in 2007, and I think it looks amazing.
@@zerogo9669 Yes it looks! It is also a good one in that department!
If you look at the teaser version of Thanos at the end of The Avengers and compare that to how he looked in Infinity War and Endgame, there are VAST differences. This technology is always evolving, even during the production of a movie.
It's too bad that A) They didn't make _The Hobbit_ into two movies instead of three. As you said, it required some watering down (as well as fluffing it up with nonsense). As soon as I heard they had decided to make it a trilogy I knew that was going to be tempting to fill it up with fluff and that's exactly what happened; And B) They didn't take their time like they did with _The Lord of the Rings._ Yes, I know Peter was brought in after the original director left and he had to make due with what had been done, but he should have insisted that they give him an additional year to make, and, being Peter Jackson, they should have listened. They still made money but tainted PJ somewhat (his next movie tanked).
That's very sadly not how it worked for Peter. He wanted more time from Warner Bros. but they insisted that the schedule has to be followed and they had no problems with replacing PJ whatsoever - the IP was so big that they would always find a director that would produce to the terms that WB dictates. PJ didn't want the movies and Tolkiens work to be tainted by some random hack. The workload and stress were so intense that it almost killed Peter Jackson. You have to watch some Behind the Scenes stuff. That poor man was miserable.

I love the high-effort click bait title pictures of this channel. :)
Great stuff...I do wish you would have done more on the Hobbit but then again, you didn't do enough to spoil it for me either!!
So, the big complaint about Thanos is that they depicted him comic book accurate?
Honestly people say the new Lion King is bad but as a 3D designer I know how hard it is to achieve those shots and animation it's insane how realistic everything looks. But can't blame them though because people actually expected to bring back those childhood memories.
Thank you boss, this has become additional knowledge for me as a person who likes to make short videos
lot of respect for you BROTHER
Loved it❤
there are ways to use cgi, the hobbit is an example of how not to use excesive cgi, cgi should always be mixed with practical stuff.
Yeah like the 3 Lord of the Rings for exemple
I don’t think we’ll ever get a more perfect blend of cgi and practical effects than LotR
The award goes to the people who made RDJ much taller than he really is.
NICE VIDEO MAN!
No no no no no. Interstellar went down in the history books as a ground breaking movie with the likes of which humanity never seen before. It was amazing the story telling was next level and the emotion that it brought out in the audience was palpable enthralling and inescapable to say the least. It enthralled us and left our souls begging for more and with the question of what if. It struck at the very core of humanity with a dream and a vision that we all ponder and want. It’s next level and the emotion it provoked was too. Instant classic unforgettable revolutionary imaginative master piece that push the envelope and did what no other movie could quite grasp. 😉 personally pulled at my heart string like few movies have.
I'm genuinely happy that so many people enjoyed Interstellar, but for me it was unbearable. So much boredom and crying and shiny blocky robots and a lazy concept for the finale. All that for a 3 hours long movie, Jesus Christ, I wanted to shoot myself
@@roccobot I feel bad for you my friend lol 🤦.
The ending is so dumb and cheap that I can't really understand why people find it so deep. And to dare to last 3 hours a movie should have something more to tell. That said, I don't feel bad for anyone, I'm just happy that you liked it 🤷♂️
@@roccobot well I guess that’s what separates me from you. I have sympathy and to a further extend even empathy and beyond. You’re missing something important it takes to throughly enjoy this movie. Possibly something you could look into and maybe fix or help or possibly change to where you could understand. Hope you find a way to enjoy this movie one day it is…. Special!!
Should I go to watch it?
Well Done. Good job
interesting video, great like!
You are the king of thumbnail
Pretty epic
More and more perfect effects, I would like to know what the next cinema innovation will be.
We might need to forward that question to Mr Cameron
Deep Fakes will be the next big thing. For the next decade we will see more and more realistic (dead) actors made by deep fakes.
And after that: going back to real actors in front of real scenes. This will be the quality movie in 10 years, when people realize, that nothing can compare to real people in front of real nature. It will also be accepting our limits (and strengths!) as humans instead of having more and more super heroes on screen.
And in 30 years nothing of that will matter, because climate change will finally get people awake and out of their fantasy worlds. While the governments will use the advanced technology to show the elites a fake paradise and keep away the "burden" of mass extinction of animals and humans.
Very cool man!
I saw the thumbnail and I was like, "Oh wow. That is so good. I would have never thought of that." Thanks for the video!
intsteller is a masterpiece
Agreed
vraiment c'est extraordinaire !
Nice work
That Rachel from Blade Runner 2049 was really impressive!!!
Godzilla vs Kong is a marvelous movie with great VFX
But not a good storyline
Love that man talking
The writing in Bladerunner2049 was amazing. Knowing a little bit about philosophy and theology helps to understand it.
excellent information😀😃👏👏👏👏👏👍
Love it and it’s amazing
I.m glad thank you so much ❤️
All the Thanos shots in your clip were by Weta - DD and Weta both developed Thanos in parallel.
You're good bro and professional 👍 not less like BBC professional 👏
Brother I am from Bangladesh🇧🇩🇧🇩. I like your video very much. Your video is very nice. Continue
From what I understand having studied the history of Disney for decades, it was and has always been fundamentally about the money.
Critics are those who can't do, hence their negativity... Awesome vfx, Greetings from Australia
PS: I know it's old school, but how about The Fifth Element fx? It was groundbreaking at the time mainly because it was European not LA bs...
YES! The Fifth Element is beautiful and one of my all time favorites. Considering that came out in 1997, its just epic.
I liked the orcs better in the LOR trilogy
Beautiful images🥰. makes you want to see these films 10 x.
good work
Adorei esse video 👏🇧🇷
And for tv show! Definitely GAME OF THRONES
Do the Swedish movie "The Unthinkable" from 2018
I love the Hobbit, it's my favourite movie trilogy
@2:02 omg I never expected Steve Smith in Apes movie 😮
Interstellar is a bizarre pick. Made with minimal cgi and mostly models and practical elements. The cgi used is of high quality but not in anyway as complex as others on the list
The problem with the preponderance of VFX is that they've strayed so far into disbelief that it's devolved into video games.
Physics are a thing and when it's ignored over the spectacle of the effect -- everything collapses and it just looks like a cheesy video game.
The BGM Music is too loud where as the voice over was feeble. Had a hard time reducing volume and increasing it while watching in TV. Later turned on the comments and watched it after muting the video
As much as I hated Terminator Dark Fate, that scene with John Connor blew me away when I found out that him, his mom and Arnold were all CGI. I was like, wow they did a good job deaging them. Na they're 100% fake CG, it's amazing, bad awful movie, but amazing talent in the editing team, too bad it was wasted.
Transformers film are also a photorealistic CGI film
me reading the title: “eh”
me seeing the thumbnail: “LE CLICK”
great !
Makes you wonder if Disney is becoming more like a company and less like Disney? Well, that's been going on for forever.
Even when Walt was still alive and in charge they had to make hard financial decisions from time to time. To be fair, it is not even remotely Disney's fault that the company MPC went out of business after working on The Lion King, as they put in their bid for the project and that's what they made for their work. If they underbid the job then that is not Disney's fault.
@@JustWasted3HoursHere What IS Disney's fault, as I was definitively alive during said time, is the terrific hate they have for children. You remember what the director (I believe) of the live-action Beauty and the Beast went on about? How he was talking about murdering the children of Trump supporters? It was retarded beyond belief.
what I would like to see? I would like to see the cg effect showed in the thumbnail!
Yes Smaug was outstandingly done even if you don't like the movies that Dragon was perfect.
i see interstellar and hobbit, i click like
Interstellar is a good movie. It's a moral tale about the importance of family/loved ones, not a science-orgy as it might first appear.
Nice
i relly want learn this
I would like to see Alita the battle angel. It is so awesome.
I think WETA WORKSHOP are so fantastic.
👍👍👍 Best Video
Thanks!
Do Transformers🙌🙌
Quitaria a Interestellar y a The Hobbit y pondría una de las recientes de Star Wars y Gravity respectivamente. En The Hobbit aveces tiene fallas y más por el exceso de CGI.
I don't know why most of the people is not talking about the VFX used in Godzilla films.
@@AlexCR95do you have an proof for that
@@AlexCR95 He is talking a about the Monster Verse Movies wich have the most amazing CGi
I agree with that DIsneys Company have sadly gone away from walts idea of "making money to make movies" and endorsed greed instead. But the VFX artists thing isn't neccesarily their fault, the company division in vancouver packed up for tax reasons apparently.
Doesn't show one finished shot of Smaug. :( The Hobbit was such a disappointment.
Someone even criticized Rachel’s eye color
Please show us Transformers breakdown.
You should see Ra. One an indian superhero movie. I agree it had weak story line but the concept, action, vfx, costume etc it maybe common in Hollywood but rare in Bollywood.
plzs make bhahubali movie VFX brakedown
I think Thanos' lips movements were really not that convincing. There is test footage out there where you see Ruffalo right next to Thanos doing facial expressions, and somehow the expressions of thanos there seem much better than in the movie itself
Thanos was a revelation. Not once was I ever taken out of the movie.
Pls breakdown mission impossible VFX
Surprised! Where is Titanic?
oh yeah my favourite actor Josh Broden
Good
recently weta digital have worked with epic game to dev a hair shader that can be render faster than never.
Imagine s'il plante cette technologie sur les jeux vidéo
Студия 188 - cool cg 😀
The hobbit 😍
Why did I think this was grian- you sound like grian-
I don't get what people are on about the Lion King ... They might look realistic, but they're still talking animals ... yeahhhhhh ... so real ! So Disney didn't stay with a recipe that they used since the .. what ? ... 50s ? 60s ? 40s ? 30s ? No idea how long Disney has been in the animated movie industry, but it sure are heck is a long, long, long time of several de-cades ! I welcomed the new style very much.
I didn't get to the film where that happens to Tony Stark lol but thx...
There is a way too much cgi in The Hobbit
special effects will never replace a great story and great acting
does anybody know here..youtube channel that give any tutorial on how to use or to make CGI video?
Ur voice makes it perfect
No wonder 90% of the Hobbit looks fake. I understand why they went that way but it's so different from LOTR that looked much more real.
Reality at another level.
Music is aggressive too much. But video is good.
6:23 - Thorn NOT Throne ;)
Can someone explain the Smaug dragon from The Hobbit?
There's this dragon who likes gold. Okay. But what does he do with it? He can't eat it. He can't buy stuff with it. So ... insofar as I can tell, gold to Smaug is what wood shavings are to a guinea pig - bedding.
Or am I missing something?
good
big budget = perfect effects? Explain the movie "Red Notice" then:-)
Make a video about John Wick
I'm sure many want to know how the stuntmen survived from this series🙄😂
How is the VFX creating character moving Technic
