That's a good point. Nate Send a noteboard - 04/05/2011 05:32:14 AM
I know CG has improved to ridiculous degrees, but I still cringe at the thought of CG direwolves. But whatever works best, I suppose. Thanks for the interesting information.


The critters they have masquerading as dire wolves at the moment are already pushing the bounds of credibility. They just have none of the ferocity that they're supposed to have in the books. The director did all he could with quick shots and dramatic music, but neither of the dire wolf "attacks" looked like anything of the sort. I'd love to see the wolves get some CGI scariness thrown their way.


If they could make them realistic, I could be down with it. You're right that they haven't been very direwolfish and intimidating yet. I just hope their CGI department would be up to the challenge, because I wouldn't enjoy being thrown out of my suspension of disbelief by poor interaction between actors and CGI wolf, or by unrealistic wolves.

*sigh* You had to go and make me check, didn't you? Ghost is in Episode 2, but not 3. - 04/05/2011 01:14:51 AM 767 Views

I hadn't considered that possibility, but it makes sense. - 03/05/2011 11:07:48 PM 931 Views
haha, I was actually thinking that'd be a good thing. - 04/05/2011 01:25:26 AM 832 Views

I think its a good idea to CGI ... if it looks good. - 04/05/2011 06:47:28 PM 869 Views
I wonder if CGI is preferable to creative camera angles. - 04/05/2011 09:26:47 PM 945 Views
