ddddeeee Posted January 5, 2012 Share Posted January 5, 2012 I have a pretty strong feeling that Transformers won't get in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoolioD1 Posted January 5, 2012 Author Share Posted January 5, 2012 But...why? The CGI on TF3 was much stronger than the other two. I think it's only behind Apes as the best visual effects work of the year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Room of Requirement scene had much more striking effects than Transformers 3. It is so much harder to alter fire, and the fire animals looked perfect in that scene.

CoolioD1 Posted January 5, 2012 Author Share Posted January 5, 2012 Really? That one scene sticks out to me as the main reason Potter won't win. It looked so obvious that they were greenscreened into it when they were on the brooms. Took me right out of the film for a minute. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looked so obvious that they were greenscreened into it when they were on the brooms. Took me right out of the film for a minute.Then what was the best scene for visual effects in DH2?Maybe the dragon, but the phoenix, bear, and snake on fire looked spectacular. I thought the only time it looked obviously greenscreened was when they were on the brooms. There was a second where Potter zoomed and it looked so fake, but only a second.Actually, you're right, the most impressive scene involving visual effects has to be when the forcefield gets burned down.

Travod Posted January 5, 2012 Share Posted January 5, 2012 What the hell happened with that scene? The brooms looked horrrrrrible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FilmBuff Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 Just saw Rise of the Planet of the Apes, the CGI Apes from that movie were incredible. Not just Andy Serkis as Caesar, but all the Apes in General. Definitely think it is the heavy favorite to win best visual effects. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnnY Posted January 22, 2012 Share Posted January 22, 2012 Yeah, I think Apes is the favorite too, but I haven't seen Transformers. I haven't seen Hugo either, are the visuals great in it? I mean, great enough to win this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jessie Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 Apes will win but I think transformers deserves to. The first two movies got snubbed so I'm guessing the 3rd will aswell. Potters C.G.I once again looked quite fake so I doubt that will win, haven't seen tree of life so can't comment on that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
