Well, Dumbledore's grave didn't annoy me as much as the overabundance of Harry with his knickers down.

I went to see the Deathly Hallows tonight. I liked it, it was better than the sixth movie. Though, the CGI in some areas could've used some more work. And the needless fanservice was needless.
And speaking of bad CGI... I also saw the trailer for Green Lantern. Kilowog still looks like [parasitic bomb].

Avatar was a very pretty animated movie. Hackneyed plotline with a predictable ending, but still very pretty from an artistic standpoint, I agree with that.
What's worse is that the render didn't even move right, so I doubt it was mo-capped. The lighting was off, the render lacked solidity, the model's weight maps looked to be shifting all over the place... I'd expect to see that from a second year animation student, not a big budget film. Kilowog looked horrible. If I had the time, space, and materials, I could prolly do better with duck tape.
You know how it is these days. They want CGI and Motion Capture instead of working with things that are actually there, either because they think they have problems (Storage? Actually getting the damn things moving?) or because they don't want to put the time and effort into making it. Its sad, I'd rather be more freaked out by the special effects being robotic over them being poorly made CGI that creeps into that Valley of Uncanniness.

<TrakNar> I asked Green Tentacle if Zuckuss can lose the ankle bracelet yet, and he said that Zuckuss may still need to wait for the next probation hearing, but he'll ask around. In the meantime, I'm still making niggly little changes.
<Goodwood> That mangy git.
<TrakNar> That's what the Gand gets for getting caught with contraband.
<TrakNar> CAVITY SEARCH! *snaps on gloves*

<Goodwood> [tornado fang] the TSA.
<TrakNar> Remember to take deep breaths, and most importantly... Try to relax.
<Goodwood> "It's pretty hard to relax when you've got your fingers up my ass, sweetheart!"
Oddly enough, I'm discussing the status of a featured article and how soon I could get the review tag nixed from it.

Hm. I saw a couple clips from Green Lantern not too long ago, and caught a glimpse of Kilowog. He was CG. I wanted to cry.
There was no reason why Kilowog had to be CG. He could've been done with animatronics. But, no, he's CG. And he's not even decent CG. He's crappy, poorly-lit, cruddy framerate, misused sim-cloth, gimbal-locking joints, animated by amateurs, we-blew-our-entire-CGI-budget-on-the-ring-constructs-and-had-to-out-source-Kilowog-to-the-SciFi-Channel CG.
Pisses me off. Kilowog deserves better. Kilowog deserves animatronics, foam-latex, and a guy in a big suit.
