Quote from: ThisBethesdaSea on Dec 04, 2011, 04:51:54 PMI honestly don't even know what the big deal is in terms of a physical matte painting or a digital one. I've been BLOWN AWAY by digital backdrops that were/are so stunningly beautiful in their perfection. If I'm wowed, I'm wowed, it doesn't matter what the medium is. Gollum is another WOW for me and absolutely proves how amazing CG can be if used perfectly.

Gollum, whilst a digital leap forward, still didn't convince at all, though it might have helped if I could understand what the tit was saying.

Quote from: JKS1 on Dec 04, 2011, 04:24:42 PMI do remember an obvious 'CGI looking' wide scale (overhead i think) shot of The Colosseum in Gladiator and being unimpressed because it looked just like what it was.....CGII just couldnt recall the scene you mentioned, and I'm pretty sure it wasnt this one.
Quote from: Gash on Dec 04, 2011, 09:56:18 PMYes, that's the shot I was talking about. Also though it should be pointed out that the overhead view of the Colosseum that's been mentioned is actually still the built sets in Malta, augmented by CGI rather than a pure CGI shot.
