first shot: real prop with keyed UI panel. second shot: VFX version on the suit model.

as someone who consumes a lot of entertainment or as a creator, how did the VFX in the Flash (2023) seem to you? The movie has been delayed, changed director, writers and been reshot extensively. If this is the result it’s at least interesting to see shots like this in a $300+ million summer blockbuster. I also feel for VFX workers who had to do crunchtime and come up with passable solutions like this because of the unrealistic deadlines hollywood execs came up with.

    The simple display on his watch seems fine to me. I thought it was a decent movie. Acting, CGI and storyline were all okay. Not great, not terrible. I’d like to see more originality in Flash movies/shows but for mindless entertainment it was alright.

      Yeah I thought the movie was kind of enjoyable – definitely seen a lot worse come out this year. And DC did well with the humor aspect for once.

      But I disagree that the CGI was ok. It was really bad imo.
