    One of the things I loved about the design in Gareth's Godzilla was how cleverly he traded off two things. On one hand, Godzilla needed to be the largest he'd ever been, almost like a mobile mountain and suitably slow, but to balance that this Godzilla had more lateral rotation than he'd ever had. You see that in the shot where he's demonstrating the use of the rooftops to get scale and then panning up; each segment of Godzilla's body is smoothly rotating, almost snake-like. It's a great way to balance the issues introduced by the new scale, but also a way to defeat the character's traditional stiffness due to the old rubber suit.

      It's a repeated pattern with Disney. Even with Luke they had such a good doppleganger and they chose the CGI/deepfake route. I wouldn't be surprised if Gareth revealed that he'd prefer a replacement but they told him to go with CGI instead. Smells to me like how a clueless suit would think. "If we can just use the original actor let's just do that!" with zero idea of how hard it is or the moral implications and the like. I wish non-artists were not part of these creative decisions, except for accountants to keep them in check.

He’s been Luke for over 40 years, it would be EXTREMELY difficult to just accept a new face playing him, especially since he plays both the young AND old versions of Luke in canon. They tried the recast route with Han Solo and we saw how well that turned out… first flop in Star Wars history.

    Gareth Edwards is a genius when it comes to vfx, but I wish producers would pair him with a similarly wise screenwriter, because his worlds suffer from the nonsensical stuff the characters do, or that happens. There's gotta be a happy compromise between having the freedom to add boats in trees etc when appropriate, and following a tight narrative frame with the kinks worked out, so it doesn't break our immersion. It's hard to justify a scuba team stealthily emerging from the water when there's a giant fucking blue beam directly behind them, as in The Creator, for just one example. The man is a visual wizard though, with an incredible work ethic and a deep knowledge about how to achieve the desired look, and that deserves massive respect. I hope he (well, they, cos he had a team for The Creator) gets that VFX Oscar, and that Hollywood then pairs him with one of those (increasingly rare) amazing screenwriters.

    I would love to see you guys react and discuss various driving scenes. I just rewatched Spielberg’s War of the Worlds and never noticed how bad the cg looks outside of the van as Tom Cruise drives away from the initial attack. It reminded me of old rear projection techniques, but with cg. Cars seem to just appear in and out of nowhere.
    I always appreciate when filmmakers take extra time tying the actors to the moving backgrounds. I would love to see more examples of good and bad driving scenes.

    Nice one Corridor Crew! Gareth Edwards has truly mastered the art of visual effects (in his bedroom), using it as a tool to tell compelling stories rather than letting it overshadow the narrative. His ability to find creative workarounds and prioritize the story is both inspiring and commendable. By focusing on the heart of the story, Edwards has shown us that VFX is not just about spectacle, but rather a means to enhance and deepen our emotional connection to the characters and the world they inhabit.
