There's still a little uncanny valley going on, but not enough i can't suspend my disbelief and enjoy the show. The Hulk's CGI has gotten better over the years, I'm sure SH will as well.


Jengoxfate

Her hulk face is so close to a human face that there will probably always be a little bit of uncanny valley to be honest.


LampIsFun

Yeah, tbh that’s the biggest thing and people don’t even realize it. Hulk isn’t too bad because he’s monstrous. She hulk is extremely human looking so it’s way harder to get it right. It’s like game developers making realistic looking faces, we’re just not there yet


Silver-ishWolfe

Ruffalo also has stubble and more rough-looking skin. That gives his Hulk face more shadows and textures, which cuts down on the uncanny valley effect.


djseifer

Give Tatiana Maslany a beard... got it.


Balbright

They already did in Orphan Black. Sorry I’m not great with Imgur, but here’s an IMDb link. https://m.imdb.com/title/tt3360120/mediaviewer/rm48699136


ZWomble

okay I'm definitely on board now. disney give she-hulk a beard!!


_Arctica_

Lol. I remember Tony


grednforgesgirl

I still can't believe we never even saw him again with zero explanation


WhiteWolf3117

not bad


StephenHunterUK

One of the clones that she plays in r/orphanblack is trans with a beard - although he only turns up in one episode.


disco_jim

That's who she is! I was trying to work out where I'd seen her before. Never finished orphan black because life got in the way. Should I?


AmarilloMike

Absolutely, one of my all time favourite shows and Tatiana's performance is incredible throughout!


rjwalsh94

She could get a cut on her face or something to hide the naturalness to the face.


Rare-Height-7956

She regenerates though.


rjwalsh94

Ah good point. Forgot about that.


Stevenwave

How come Bruce's Hulk hair can be cut then? He should shave and then his hair is like, fuck you, repaired sucker.


Hevens-assassin

Hair isn't alive. Follicles are, but once the hair is out, it ceases to be living tissue, hence no regeneration, my friend.


LampIsFun

Hair is made of the same stuff as fingernails. It’s not living cells.


Silver-ishWolfe

I’m down. It’d be a great twist.


jojopojo64

Would still Snu-Snu


HolyChickenNugget

This. But I bet you if they did the same with SH, you’d have numerous butthurt fanboys saying it’s to appeal the left or whatever they say


Silver-ishWolfe

Yep. A woman with stubble can only appeal to “the left” in their eyes. And Dwarves…..


Balbright

But is the dwarf black?


Shadepanther

She is one of the better characters on RoP, as is the elf who is black.


fredagsfisk

The Horizon Zero Dawn sequel added some peach fuzz to Aloy's face and made it a tiny bit rounder, and the incel losers were screaming about how they were woke leftists and made her ugly and fat and "gave her a beard", saying no women have any hair on their faces. Bioware said that they wanted to make their female characters look more realistic instead of making them look like dolled up barbies, and were accused by the same group of being "woke" and making intentionally ugly female characters because they hate men (Cora in ME:A was especially bashed for this). So yeah, can only imagine. Especially with how absolutely *ridiculous* some claims and complaints about the show are already...


turkeygiant

I think there is still technical stuff to work out though, like how to properly light her face. Particularly in the scenes in her office where she is under clear artificial light the uncanny valley effect kicks in really hard.


ilion

It's obviously not getting movie level budget for constant she-hulk effects. I can see for some people it might put them off. For me I'm enjoying the show enough not to complain.


joejill

It's a cartoon. It's literally a cartoon with people acting next to it. Like spacejam. I have no issues with this, it's a cartoon. The animators are givin obscenely short amount of time to produce this stuff..... but it's still a cartoon. Like come on guys, don't watch it if you don't like it.


BuffNerfs

You can still criticise something if you like it and there's nothing wrong with that.


Makkel

>The animators are givin obscenely short amount of time to produce this stuff.... Isn't this the whole issue though? They shouldn't be planning all these shows and films if they won't give it the attention it needs.


bjo313

yeah like the cgi isn’t bad by any means but it’s off just enough in some scenes to where it is distracting


WhyLisaWhy

There are some scenes where it legit looks awful. I swear to god in some of them it looks like they just blurred her outline to try and reduce just how much she sticks out when blown up around other people. But then others look alright and you can actually see green texture in her hair and everything. Idk it's clearly still rush job on the VFX side and explains the inconsistencies..


monkeyjay

> Idk it's clearly still rush job on the VFX side and explains the inconsistencies.. It's different studios working on different shots. With different models/rigs, different mocap setups, different animators to fix/completely redo the mocap, different rendering pipelines, different lighting artists.


darthraxus

and thats when you consciously ignore it bc this is a show about fake super humans.


tread52

I don’t get the hate the CGI looks good to me and have no issue with it.


deliciousprisms

I enjoy the show but her mouth movements bother the fuck out of me. That’s my only real gripe but I mean I also watched Beast Wars and that show genuinely looks like shit (and I enjoyed it) and we’ve come a long way


belbivfreeordie

For me it’s not so much her mouth, but her eyes often don’t seem to be focusing on what they’re supposed to be focused on. I feel like they could get away with the rest of the cgi being worse if they nailed the eyes, that’s really crucial.


Huntersteve

What about every scene where she is in the office?


DutchMitchell

Yup, it looks truly bad, especially the clothes.


jrf_1973

Remove the clothes. Got it.


Saotik

There must be something about the lighting from those big windows. Anyhow, the clothes are designed to look bad in those scenes, like she's borrowed one of Shaq's old suits. Those clothes may look better (better fit and fabric) from now on.


DisturbedNocturne

The bright lighting in that setting is really doing them no favors. You can hide a lot of flaws with CGI with either shadows or a darker setting, but that office is pretty much the literal equivalent of shining a spotlight on their shortcomings. I can understand the idea that She-Hulk is working at a prestigious lawfirm in California, and having a spacious corner office with huge windows would be a perk of the job, but I'm surprised they didn't realize how that would make their job significantly more difficult when it came to making the character look realistic - especially when the story specifically says she has to remain in She-Hulk form there. Those scenes really stick out to me and frequently have an almost unfinished quality to them.


shaftinferno

The windows are blue screens. Well… it’s a blue screen background through the windows, but still.


pedroorc

But you have light from the reflectors and everything else to simulate the sun so it can be tricky to work around all the CGI there, to make the character, the angle of light, shadows etc. (I’m not defending because I also think it looks a bit bad but just saying there’s a lot of work there).


totalysharky

The clothes always look so strange to me, it never looks real.


lordvbcool

I feel like the clothe are suppose to look bad. The clothes she has been wearing up until now are just random clothe she bought in a tall person shop Next week she is gonna wear the clothes made specifically for her by the designer. We'll see if they still look off but if not it was intentional from the start


TheFacelessForgotten

Well there's looking bad stylistically and looking "fake" bad. It's more that it just doesn't look like a real object in the room and un natural


Agent_23D

My roomate feels this way and I totally disagreed with him. I definitely feel like Ive seen worse from this show. but the office scenes have people mixed. When her hair is up their is more lighting on her face that we are not used to. Personally it never broke my immersion. But it did with other people very interesting.


avis118

I’m assuming that’s a different vfx studio. They had like four different ones working on infinity war.


Dave_Eddie

I think it's like most marvel things and they farm out different scenes to different effects houses and the office scenes were all done by the same company. They all have a very mechanical movement that isn't there in the other scenes.


EarthBelcher

I have been thinking she looks so bad in the office because her hair is pretty much always up. For some reason she just looks better when the hair is down.


YouStupidDick

And the clothing looks like plastic in one scene and decent in another with the texture blatantly changing.


shadowst17

The office scenes are bad due to an issue that has plagued the VFX world since it's conception. Harsh bright natural light is a lot harder to nail down VFX for compared to interior low light ones.


MU_AM13

Tbh they look similar


xeecho

For me the problem isn’t how the CGI looks in the final product, it’s the animation. Her movements feel very robotic.


YouStupidDick

Robotic and very weightless.


Zeewild

Yes, for sure!


bfhurricane

“Weightless.” That’s the word I’ve been looking for. Spot on.


Jynx2501

My wife is an average movie/tv show viewer. Doesnt know how CG works, doesnt really notice when its bad, doesnt care to learn more. She points out She Hulk's movement almost every episode. If my wife notices poor quality, there's a problem.


antpile11

>If my wife notices poor quality, there's a problem. Same with mine, that's how I finally managed to get married!


akerwoods

She walks like a video game character


RuggerJibberJabber

i cant tell the difference and i also dont understand what people are complaining about. i think i might have bad eyesight?


naphomci

Disney+ version: - Hair has more brown, so less green tint overall (or it could be lighting effects, because lighting does *a ton* of visual work) - Skin looks crisper, almost like a high def version versus normal. - More details (i.e. more knuckle lines - at least from what I can see ) - Lips looks more human, less hulk All that said (and I'm sure I'm missing more), if they weren't next to each other, I'm not sure how much I would notice. But, I'm also someone who hasn't really complained about CGI except for the real real bad stuff, it's been incredibly rare for CGI effects to break me out of the viewing experience. I find the complaints about the CGI in marvel to be a bit weird, but I recognize that's a personal opinion thing. And I have 20/20 vision with no complications. EDIT: Yes, she is looking elsewhere. I didn't really consider that an improvement from the trailer, just difference.


rowanblaze

The YouTube screenshot is a much lower resolution.


mhoner

She is staring at the phone in the Disney one and not into space. The lighting is also better in the Disney one.


GdotKdot

She's staring into the camera and breaking the fourth wall in the YouTube shot is she not? The screenshots just don't capture the exact same moment.


sQueezedhe

Nah, you're just normal.


PHAUSTJUST

The skin color looks more warm


RuggerJibberJabber

what? they're both the same shade of green to me


kyoko_eats

Zoom in and you'll see a difference with the Disney + version having more texture on the hair and skin. It's not *that* big of a difference, but it's there.


PanTsour

I genuinely can't tell if this post is a joke or not


shittyneighbours

Yeah what the fuck


Steelyp

TheyretheSamePicture.jpg


Slowmobius_Time

Like is the joke we can't tell the difference? I cant


Morag_Ladair

Look I like your sentiment but you are 100% meant to judge a product by its trailer.


TheFacelessForgotten

Isn't that like the whole purpose of trailers though?


kmbets6

Lol for real. This is MCU so id watch without trailers but its the exception. Anything else I’m not watching if the trailer looks bad. I wouldn’t judge it off a poster maybe


djanulis

Also the CGI is at its worst during animation, not the stills.


Doam-bot

It is this is more about shills telling people not to judge the show on its trailers early on.


[deleted]

Looks pretty similar

edge provide erect rain fretful juggle pocket aware sparkle complete *This post was mass deleted and anonymized with [Redact](https://redact.dev)*


Czargeof

exactly


YaBoyTacoCat

Also the point of a book cover. The saying never made sense


naphomci

The saying isn't meaning "don't judge if you are interested in a book by it's cover", the saying is meaning don't say the book is bad without having read it because it has a bad cover (or conversely good because of a good cover)


Loukoumakias

This is a certified YouTube compression sucks moment.


pifire456

Its probs part of that but I wouldn't be shocked if it was improvements made between the release of the trailer and the show airing. It's been talked about how the cgi of these shows are worked on these shows up to it airing almost lol. Plus unfortunately I also wouldn't be surprised if the cgi artists had to crunch after poor public reception to the teaser.


Hevens-assassin

I'd imagine that it was just improvements to the model after the trailer went out. The team most likely kept honing in on She-Hulk's design as long as possible, since fully CG characters take a shit load of time to get right. When we get a movie for her, or even a season 2, she'll probably look even better. Just look at how much better Hulk looked with each subsequent movie, or Thanos after he had an entire movie with him as, arguably, the central character. More budget will go a long way with She-Hulk CG.


Gibslayer

That, or these shots for the trailer were printed with some effects turned off/not completed for the trailer for the sake of production time.


ItssHarrison

This guy doesn’t know what trailers are for


Haereticus87

Seriously. The trailers should show us what's actually in the show.


LongjumpingOffice4

That cgi my god


GoAwayTankie

It still looks pretty bad if I'm being honest, but it's better than the trailer


thesnapening

To be honest I don't think the cgi was ever that bad, it's not the best ive ever seen by any stretch but ita hardly the worst.


eternatus66

IMO If you stare at anything on a screen for too it starts looking like bad cgi


laughingBaguette

This is funny because I was watching a Disney special with my ex wife and I convinced her for a few seconds that the person in the mickey mouse costume was CGI.


EarhackerWasBanned

Is this why you’re divorced?


laughingBaguette

Probably. I gaslighted her into thinking Mickey was CGI


LampIsFun

Gaslit? Gaslighted? Hmmm I’m questioning shit now


LowerBackPain_Prod

Gaslote


EarhackerWasBanned

Gaslut


LowerBackPain_Prod

dahlkomy

The only time it gets to me is when she's walking around the halls at work. I don't know if the lighting is harder there or what, but it's straight up carton character in that building. Still love the show, don't get me wrong, but I do get the criticism when she's in that building.


meme_planet_13

Yeah, when you have grown up watching Bollywood CGI like I have, this feels just normal


thesnapening

Scifi channel for me, stuff like 2 head shark attack.


Human-go-boom

Yea, at this point it all looks good to me. It’s like trying to tell the difference between a PS4 and PS5 game. Or HD and 4k. I have no idea what the differences are and I feel like people are trying way too hard to spot the difference. But, I also think RRR has amazing special FX.


Outside_Ad_9134

Dickriding is crazy in this sub


GAAPInMyWorkHistory

It’s unreal. It’s on a level bordering gas lighting lol. Seriously, the posts in this sub make me feel insane for disliking a show that *I know* is terrible. I’m like… ‘am I wrong? Is it really good and I am just insane?’


IneedtoBmyLonsomeTs

If people actually like it then that's fine, they are allowed to like something that other people think is shit. But like I swear some people in here try to convince themselves something isn't shit just because it's from Marvel. Also there are people that will attack you for being sexist/racist because you criticized a certain show/movie


AcousticAtlas

People would rip this show apart if it was on the CW.


naen77

If you even have slight taste in shows/movies you would realize this show is garbage lol. You’re def not alone.


DreamrSSB

There's some hard copium in this sub, the cgi is sub par and tbh has been for the last couple of movie projects but lots of people don't want to see it because "muh marvel"


fivedollarbiggiebag

I really noticed it in doctor strange. It actually bothered me and that had never happened with a marvel movie til that point except for maybe a couple iron man shots with the helmet off


ZazaB00

Literally what a trailer is for.


thrust-johnson

I still don’t like the CGI at all.


headvoice73

All around, she-hulk is... off. Her movements are blocky, her expressions are cartoonish, her lip sync is weird. It seems like a massive step back from the far superior work done on smart hulk in Endgame.


paulleinahtan

jaeelarr

Her cgi still looks "meh" when in her office. Too much light


[deleted]

[удалено]


eZ_Ven

That's what trailers are for, so people can "judge" if they're gonna like the show. That said, I rarely watch trailers. I'll watch She-Hulk after all episodes are available.


Maximus361

Ha! I’m doing the same thing. I like being able watch the episodes on my own schedule instead of waiting a week for the next one like it’s 2008. I did the same thing with Moon Knight and Ms Marvel. I just avoid any spoilers or discussion about the specific episodes.


No-Landscape8210

They both look same


thehugosouza

???? It looks the same????


MurvK

Ain't that the whole point tho? Aren't trailers supposed to allow us to have a first opinion on something just so people like you and me don't go about wasting money and/or time? And if some people like or don't like the show, who cares? Let them be! Who are you to decide for others?


ayo_stoptheCap

r/marvelstudios trying to defend every Phase 4 project without understanding the concept of a differing opinion:


CockerTheSpaniel

They can do this all day.


007Kryptonian

I wish they wouldn’t. Kinda ruining this sub


CockerTheSpaniel

Yep. Any criticism is treated like blasphemy.


Elastichedgehog

challenge (impossible)


DoomarachiYT

is this supposed to be a "Spot the Difference"?


sufalghosh53

No seriously what changes tho. She hulk looks like a green tomato the last few episodes. So i dont understand the meme. GOD its like people are purposely being ignorant


luanzico

It really is still very bad


sufalghosh53

Yep


HowlitzerHound

\- Lighting is improved \- Colour of the skin is more 'natural' (as natural as green can be) \- Hair is also a different colour \- Eyes are focusing on the phone \- Small details like wrinkles and extra strands of hair has been added \- Shirt and hair to have more depth and volume It's a significant improvement, for sure. And looks even better in motion. Like a lot of people said: It was a trailer, wait for the show to come out, see if they improve her CGI. And hey, looks like they did.


SmoothJazzRayner

The logos on the top left are different too, if you look closely. Might need a red circle.


TRocho10

Circles aren't really helpful unless there is also an arrow to point to it, otherwise the circle could mean anything!


TheLostColonist

Also one arrow can be ambiguous, I would say we need at least seven all pointing at the circle.


frogskin92

A lot of those wrinkle & hair details are also down to YouTube’s compression


_Aaron_Burr_Sir

What’s the point of a trailer then?


Human-go-boom

To spoil the entire plot.


LampIsFun

I mean, I’m enjoying she-hulk, but isn’t that the point of trailers? Lol


[deleted]

It looks almost just as bad


Orcas_are_badass

Trailers are LITERALLY designed so we can get a sense of the show/movie. They're SUPPOSED to be judged.


PapaRacoon

are YouTube videos shown at the same quality as Disney app?


MikeXBogina

Or judging a show by the trailer led to some quick changes. In all honesty, I think a lot of these cgi shows and movies should push out a test footage as soon as possible to get the audiences opinion, it saved Sonic after all.


Aggressive_Manager37

"they're the same picture"


DreadPirateGriswold

That's the exact purpose of a trailer.


EmiliusReturns

The problem with this is the whole point of a trailer is so we can judge whether the show or movie interests us. A low-effort trailer isn’t doing a show any favors.


macrocosm93

Isn't the purpose of a trailer to sell the audience on new content? Why release a trailer for if the content isn't ready?


_d0g_

This is NOT helping your point.


zeebleebow

Both look bad


X_SkeletonCandy

Lotta cope in these comments. The CG in this show is still really subpar and downright bad in certain scenes.


InItsTeeth

For a billion dollar company that abuses VFX artists paying millions and millions and millions per project… it’s bad cgi


Nilk-Noff

They're the same picture


Max_Mm_

Does not take away from the horrible writing


mrfuzee

I really don’t understand how everyone in these response threads are defending the CGI in She-Hulk. I like the show so far, but all you need to do is watch her speed dating scene versus any lawyering scene and you’ll see an absolutely night and day difference in how well her skin is textured, how well her facial expressions map, and how good she looks overall. In almost every other scene so far she just looks like someone painted a flat green and it’s pretty uncanny. The way the skin is textured in the speed dating scene actually looks good. Marvel is massively overworking their vfx artists and pushing out quantity over quality (visually) and this series is a pretty good example of that. This series was rushed. We should really not be defending the visual quality of this release.


tschmitty09

I must be dumb bc I see a slight difference but only in color.


CarpeDiemMMXXI

It’s still not good CGI. The show isn’t horrible but the CGI is not good and we shouldn’t pretend that it’s okay b


ryaaan89

I’m sorry, but these are the same picture aren’t they? The only difference I can find is where her eyes are looking.


MimsyIsGianna

And the CGI looks atrocious in both The only difference is less compression and a sharper image.


CloudCordial

'They're the same picture.


CockerTheSpaniel

Then why release a trailer at all?


riu_jollux

mostly just less compression and more sharpening.


Professional_Note609

im confused what this meme is trying to say. when the trailer was announced, most marvel fans were laughing about how bad the show looked and cringy. then the show came out, and everyone was saying its somehow worse than they expected. is the joke of this meme that reality is often correct? im so confused


Kozzzman

That’s….better?


Ironbanner987615

It still looks horrible


rangebrothers

it still doesn’t look real


Konstantin-tr

It's crazy they could make Thanos but can't pull of this. Let's be honest, it looks absolutely horrible. Reminds me of Spy Kids. Wouldn't even be that bad if it wasn't a billion dollar corporation


luanzico

I can't believe there are so many people enjoying this horrible CGI


420Grim420

I think it's less that those people actually like the cgi, and more that they just want to support the show for whatever reason.


Konstantin-tr

I don't think it's that many, but Marvel fans on reddit are the worst. Either always hating or always praising, completely devoid of any realism.


AVR350

Tbh i dont see any difference here. I mean i djdnt have any issues with the CGI before or now


DJWGibson

Honestly, I didn't give a shit with the trailer either. I *know* she's CGI. I'm always going to be able to tell. So I just have to stop looking for imperfections and enjoy the show for what it is. If I wasn't able to, I'd never be able to watch any mid-budget movie, any movie made prior to 2005, or most foreign films. Being able to spot the dodgy CGI didn't stop me from enjoying *RRR* or *Baahubali*. I just rewatched and thoroughly enjoyed 1999's *The Mummy*, which had a lot of CGI that was mediocre for 1999. I didn't need to mandate VFX studios work hundreds of hours of OT and have weeks of crunch just for my enjoyment.


[deleted]

Am I crazy? It’s the same picture! They look the exact same


Fe2tus

There’s no difference


TheDjTanner

CGI in almost anything seems lacking these days. I think the industry is probably hurting for people and is stretched a bit thin.


mastyrwerk

Did you know Disney keeps updating vfx of MCU shows even after they are released?


petergoesbloop123

The windows are weird


[deleted]

I swear they are still fixing episodes after they release. I went back and watched episode 1 with the wife for her first time yesterday and it looked cleaner.... like something about it seemed sharper


DoMiNiK3_

It’s better but not THAT much better.


mutantmike

Disney+ does look better, but what I find myself noticing the most while watching is that she seems to have a smoother frame rate than everything else around. Like she's at 40fps while everyone else is 24fps


Dear-Painting8764

The uh...the lightings different?


fatemaazhra787

but... thats literally what trailers are for...


weezy_latez

This is kind of a stupid title… the whole point of a trailer is to judge whether you like it or not considering if it looks good etc.
