Did we need it? In the fight between computer animated Blade and Nyssa the movie almost turns into a video game.

It wasn't the greatest, but I think it was used sparingly, and usually in fast scenes where it wasn't totally in your face.
shareIt was pretty bad...but I have to say I was amazed by the Reaper's mouths
You're going to die. Oh no!
The reapers mouths opening were amazing yes. Also when Nyssa(sorry if I spelt it wrong) dies it looked amazing.
I watched the directors commentary, and Guillermo was saying how he wanted to kill the cgi department for the nyssa/blade fight lol. to quote him, he said 'they *beep* it up'. But besides that, the cgi on the reapers, like the others have already said, was truly amazing, it didn't look fake at all.
It reminded me a lot of the CGI used in "Cats and Dogs", especially the ninja cats scene.
shareI don't know what movie you guys were watching... The cgi is just as impressive today as it was then, and that's saying a lot
shareI like how they evenly mixed the CGI with natural fighting, particularly the final fight between Blade and Novak. Sure the CG itself sucked and you could easily tell the cut-off points, but at the very most it gave the fight a furiousness and elaborateness that made it enteratning, and I guess that's all that matters.
If you are a 100% fan of Judas Priest, proudly copy this and make it your signature!
Honestly he should have asked for a sample of what the scene would look like. It was way too damn obvious then and terrible now. But of course the reapers were perfect with the cgi.
shareOk the fight scene is laughable, but in 2002 when I saw the scene at the beginning when Blade jumps from a window like 300 feet high I though AWESOME.
share^ that bit was cool, I think most of the CGI in this movie was good to amazing, it was just the Blade/Nyssa fight that looked like a video game. I would seriously love for them to go back and redo that scene, and re-release the movie.
shareif thats what the director said then he is lying
as a director etc he would get to see everything before its even finished and gets to say if it needs changing
if he thought it looked bad he would of known while the film was being made
my guess is either at the time he thought it was good then changed his mind when the film was done OR they ran out of budget to improve the CGI and he did not want to admit it
The director doesn't always have final cut or final say in how the movie is finished.
sharebesides guys this was 2002 even then cgi and cgi models of people in films were not good lol

Can we stop for a moment and THINK?.... This was done in 2002...
Can we think of a movie which did a similar scene BEFORE Blade?
It was breakthrough technology back then (later copied by Matrix Reloaded which I might add, looked even worse), so cut the movie some slack.
I know, I had not seen anything like it in a major movie before Blade II and yes it looked kinda "weird" but I appreciated what they were trying to make. It was very ambitious, but so was the Jaws shark...Just cause it looks fake ass fhck NOW, does not mean it was great back then...
These kids have it too good these days.....
