Bad CGI

[Ninjadoom]

Anyone else think that the CG images of the building everyone was in was really bad? I mean I've seen so much better stuff in all the other episodes but recently the CG stuff in Atlantis has been going downhill, especially when they try to do images of a town or building or something.

It was bad. Game engines look better than that.

Like I said, the budget for this episode was used up on Keller's Boots. So they had to cut some corners in the actors and Visual effects budget.

I concur

[airrick]

I said the same thing.. I was like.. um.. that building looks cheaply generated

[jelgate]

Are you guys mad? I have never seen such great CGI in my whole life

It happens. Their are only some VHX guys and some scenes are more important then other

the tornadoes, alas, looked as bad as those awful CGIed dinos on various SciFi saturday night movies... not to mention the tornadoes were highly selective in not touching the building they were incredibly close to....

[AlphaWox]

It was lousy... I wonder why they didn't find some stock footage of something out in Nevada to film and drop it in. They did go on a road trip, and I don't recall any dialogue over top of the building shots.

I'd agree the CG for the building in this episode was crap, but I wouldn't agree that he CG in general has been going down in quality, is definitely been rising IMO.

[Hermiiod]

Their entire budget went to hiring Bill Nye and (as Briangate78 said) Keller's boots.

[Bobby]

the worst CGI i have seen for a while!

[Flyboy]

Mind you, I didn't think the ships in First Contact or Lost Tribe were that good either.

[Skydiver]

yeha, they were very poorly done. better to have shot nothing or to grab some picture off a stock photo site than to use bad cgi like that.

They weren't, I think they use a different vendor for the mid season episodes, the CG was mostly poor in BAMSR too.
