4️⃣ • Your own irksome / noticeable / poorly executed CGI Prequel scenes…

 

 
The first person to spectacularly miss the point of this thread and state ‘but the Prequels had more practical effects than the OT’ as some sort of whataboutery attempt to ‘defend’ the PT or to ‘derail’ the thread etc… has to pay me £100 - or watch 1 Hour of Jar Jar Binks Anthem video on loop for 24 hours! 😃

 

It is a little surprising given the quality of many of these CGI shots and scenes that the Prequels haven’t undergone their own ‘Special Edition’ over the years. Maybe they would have… if George had decided to make his own Sequel Trilogy instead of selling up; Lucas could have used ‘The Prequels: Special Edition’ banner in the way he used the Original Trilogy films to ‘Special Edition’ them… as a means to test CGI effects for his planned PT movies (+ making some ‘seed money’ along the way for them)? 😉
 

A Mini-Index…

 
0️⃣ • Introduction

1️⃣ • The Phantom Menace

2️⃣ • Attack Of The Clones

3️⃣ • Revenge Of The Sith

4️⃣ • Your own irksome / noticeable / poorly executed CGI scenes & CGI-affected scenes from the Prequels… (this post)

 
 
The above 15 topics for each of the 3 PT films are my own personal take on some of the many scenes that stood out to me. It is be no means a ‘definitive list’ or even a ‘comprehensive list’ of substandard / noticeably poor CGI issues in the Prequels…

Everyone’s mileage may very much vary on just what constitutes poorly executed/affected CGI in the Prequel Trilogy films.

Please add your own problematic / poor CGI scenes / irksome CGI issues / any scenes I’ve overlooked… in the thread, below…
