Top 20 Worst CGI Movie Effects of All Time

Who are you, dad? Welcome to Mojo and today we're counting down our picks for the 20 Worst CGI Movie Effects. Hey, those people on that bus are being attacked by those birds. In this list we will see respectable attempts to achieve something big. screen CG that completely failed and was unconvincing intentionally horrible cgi will not be included what is the

worst

example of cgi you have ever seen make sure to let us know in the comments number 20 the death of russell franklin deep blue sea now that you have He seen how bad things can get and how quickly they can get that way.

Well, they can get a lot worse. Samuel L. Jackson deserves better than this. This sci-fi horror

movie

is about a group of scientists searching for a cure for Alzheimer's which results in the creation of super intelligent sharks so you know there will be some cheesy fun but this is just unforgivable let's join in and we'll find a way out of here, which is certainly a surprising death, it's just ruined. From the look of this shark and the clearly cg jackson, the computer squirt of blood only adds to the fakery, making the jaws released almost 25 years earlier look much better, what could have been a horrific scene , on the other hand, leaves people laughing number 19, basically everything we do in justice league.

I'd never seen a $300 million

movie

look like that, with that kind of money we expected literal magic. Instead, we got a movie that constantly looked like a cutscene from a video game. On the one hand, it's very obvious that most of the action was filmed on green screen (we saw more convincing green screen work in 1999), there's also the fact that both the cyborg and the steppenwolf looked really incredible and this last was particularly offensive, no this is also unrecognizable and finally there is the infamous case of Henry Cavill's computer generated face. the one that everyone made fun of and rightly forgot the justice league was totally dead look now that's cold that's a betrayal i feel stung by that breath number 18 the social network we can't think of anything more useless than spending money on breath cgi I think I thought of something outside, it's 20 degrees outside in a scene on the social network Mark and Eduardo is talking outside in the cold, which resulted in a ridiculously distracted CGI breath, people faced a stampede, right, yes, but it wasn't because they saw pictures of pretty girls, you can go anywhere on the internet and see pictures of pretty girls on the DVD.

Commentary director David Fincher explained that they actually filmed the scene in the freezing cold and he wanted to honor the actor's commitment by adding a little breath bad bad decision I can't feel my legs we would have preferred nothing at all it's not like no one cares It would have mattered that the scene was breathless is a glaringly obvious flaw in an excellent and beautiful film, we will split it 70 30. 70 for me 30 for you for putting up the thousand dollars and taking care of everything in the business. your 17th CFO. han just meet jabba the hutt star wars episode 4 a new hope special edition has been waiting for you the classic star wars is not without its flaws, well that's not entirely true, at least this scene isn't was in the original 1977 version, it wasn't until the 1997 theatrical re-release that audiences saw this scene for the first

time

and it was further enhanced in the 2004 DVD release, suffice to say audiences weren't exactly thrilled, Even When I Was Approached, some

time

s filmed in the '70s with a human playing Jabba, the scene was cut from the original release, but George Lucas reinserted the scene two decades later with a CGI Jabba.

They all seemed highly artificial next to the human Harrison Ford. Many of the

effects

from the '70s looked better than this new Jabba. Did you seriously think that having Han digitally walk on Jabba's tail would be a good way to deal with Jabba's revised design from Return of the Jedi #16. mary jane the scooby-doo monster something is wrong with his eyes in this adaptation of Live action from 2002 from the famous Scooby-Doo animated series Scoob and the gang traveled to an island to investigate strange happenings in this scene Mary Jane is riding ATVs with Shaggy and Scooby when her head hits a branch, causing her to his face becomes monstrous, with green eyes and elastic skin.

Her green eyes look pretty bad, but it's the stretching of the skin that needs the most work since you can clearly see where she is. fisher's real face stops and the cgi takes over still this will probably scare kids at least yeah are you okay? oh you were great ghost rider of transformation number 15, this ip marvel was always going to be a complicated production with the skull on fire and all that seems a bit difficult to achieve with practical

effects

and the cgi needs to be convincing for it to work unfortunately the cgi was unconvincing despite the $110 million budget behind the film the first transformation scene is particularly disappointing the opening screams looks decent despite the awkward cgi smoke and cheesy fireball effects that fill the screen , but then we see the CGI burning skull and that completely ruins both the scene and the rest of the movie.

It doesn't look cool or scary, instead, it elicits laughs. looking for someone number 14. Shark Jaws Blast 3D Jaws is one of those perfect movies that didn't need a sequel at all, being Hollywood, however, they released sequels of increasingly lower quality, resulting in Jaws 3D reviews, It's hard not to shake your head. The whole climax of this movie starts off ridiculously with the shark floating in the water breaking the fake glass and breaking all the laws of physics by immediately stopping in its tracks and then we get to that amazing explosion that sees cgi blood and organs flying. towards the camera in an instance of 3D that is difficult to forget, but not in a good way.

Space monkey number 13 lost in space. This sci-fi adventure that follows the Robinson family as they migrate to a nearby star system was adapted from the 1960s television show of the same name, however the series probably had better special effects than this one. The main detractor is an alien primate. which is adopted as a pet and which also seems hard to believe it seems that the actors had little to work with and the integration could have been improved so much that it is difficult not to be distracted from the action of their scenes. This is an interstellar journey that could have worked with a higher budget. good girl pretty girl number 12 power plant overload escape the pliskin slowdown you are overloading the power plant recover only half of your budget.

The failure of this sci-fi action movie could possibly be due to overloading the special effects power plant. A sequel to the original 1981 escape sees the return of Snake Pliskin as he retrieves a dangerous device from In the City of Angels, this scene is particularly notable thanks to a clearly fake submarine and doesn't get much better from there, it's more crashing into the building is likely to make people compare it more to the effects of a cheap video game, not to mention. the disproportionately large and very fake looking shark, maybe they should have left the original number 11 alone, the red caped spawn in one of the most infamous scenes in the film, the spawn bursts through the ceiling and descends with a flurry of his red cape and let's not beat around the bush. the cape doesn't look right and points to the filmmaker's defense, this was 1997 and wavy elements are notoriously difficult to animate, but it's still there and they did it, so it's fair game and it's not like the spawn is made at a low price or for which it was produced. between 40 and 45 million dollars what's wrong with you jason you don't recognize your own work that's nothing compared to modern superhero movies but it's not a small budget the film has its fans and its merits but the visual effects are certainly not one of them number 10 bond surfs a tidal wave dies another day to draw the line in this bond movie a super villain uses a giant satellite mirror to reflect solar energy in iceland this beam of energy is used to break a glacier and forces bond to sail Far from destruction in a massive tidal wave, is it any wonder Bond rebooted after this, even by Roger Moore's silliest standards?

This scene is pretty ridiculous, it could have been some good cheesy entertainment if it wasn't for the CGI work. was released in 2002, when large-scale CGI work was just starting to take off, and despite the film's $142 million budget, they couldn't even come up with a convincing green screen effect. It didn't impress then and it certainly doesn't now. Global warming is a terrible thing number nine anaconda snake attack 3 descendants here is the same snake from this made for television horror movie title that leaves us in stitches the sound effects actually sound kind of good and the first person shots They establish a decent sense of terror, but that terror quickly disappears as we get a better look at what they're trying to pass off as a snake, even though it's supposed to be intimidating.

We can only laugh at the video game-like lighting movement and lack of realism when giant snakes appear. It may be scary for some, but we don't think it really was for many people who saw this movie number eight The Claws of Wolverine The Origins of X-Men Wolverine with the X-Men name behind the movie It seems like a fact that there would be some cool sci-fi oriented special effects. here, but sadly that wasn't the case for this fourth installment of the series, instead we get claws that look like this and cgi that only takes us away from the story that much faster the claws clearly don't come out of Wolverine's hand , but instead of superimposing actor hugh jackman's actual hand, we should also mention the last scene, which makes little sense and doesn't fare much better.

These efforts certainly don't match such a high-budget movie number 7, aging effects, legacy of tron ​​back in 1982, tron ​​burned a path and became one of the first Hollywood blockbusters in use CGI on a large scale almost 30 years later, tron ​​Legacy was released and proved that it still had a long way to go. Interestingly, the problem was not the digital world, but simple. human faces who are you dad jeff bridges was rejuvenated for the movie and the results are not the least bit convincing isn't this something you look the same oh, a lot happened, sam more than you can imagine veer into the uncanny valley ?

They look a lot like video game faces superimposed on the real actors, which they essentially are. This might make sense within the context of the movie, but it doesn't really matter, it keeps distracting number six, freddie the caterpillar, freddy vs jason, the last thing we expected from freddy. vs jason was a hookah smoking freddy caterpillar, but what do we know? The Caterpillar appears to bill the film's resident stoner, and while the scene is clearly meant to be silly - that's not forgiving of the CGI work on display here - nothing about Freddy's Caterpillar looks good. especially when he reaches behind himself to grab a water pipe out of nowhere, the move is unconvincing and made even worse by sharing the screen with a human actor and just when you thought it couldn't get any more ridiculous, the caterpillar forces itself to herself.

In Billy's throat and the visual effects work is scarier than anything else in the film. Parallax Number Five versus Green Lantern Green Lantern with a $200 million budget and the DC name behind you, you'd think we'd get some decent special effects, think again. parallax, the main villain of this superhero movie looks horribly ridiculous and fake, and it doesn't help that Green Lantern himself looks like a video game character half the time, they even had to use computer effects for the mask of how Jordan dresses when he becomes the Green Lantern it's not bad, couldn't they have just given him a real mask?

Lead actor Ryan Reynolds himself has teased the film's effects, albeit in the voice of another superhero, but that has to count for something and please don't make a green super suit. or animated number four the attack of the langolier the langoliers this television miniseries released as a movie on home video and based on a novella by stephen king about a group that finds themselves in another dimension should have a terrifying ending but its cgi completely takes us out of horror, not only did the langoliers themselves look completely ridiculous like monsters, but you can actually see the pixels and raw animation, even the track turns cgi and looks like an old pixelated PlayStation game.

Eating the scenery could also use some work, as it's more like simply erasing the scenery rather than eating it. The master of horror deserves better,Good sir, look at that, what is it that attracts them to Mr. Toomey, but where Mr. Toony was number three? lou kang's transformation mortal kombat annihilation based on the famous video game series that shows people literally tearing each other apart this martial arts movie is sure to be a little cheesy this particular scene shows the animality of lou kang in which he shapeshifts into a creature to take down your opponents unfortunately looks as unreal as it does impressive, you come prepared but it's not good enough, the actual transformation looks incredibly fake compared to the real actor, but the real beast, although supposed to be intimidating, just looks ridiculous, it almost looks like paper against the background, actually they might as well have done it that way and saved something. money number two birds shock and horror birdemic we're not going to say this is the

worst

movie ever made, but there's no denying the fact that several people have certainly said it, so bless James Wynn for trying, although I think they are eagles, what the hell?

Around the world, this romantic horror film has been compared to the works of Tommy Wiseau and Ed Wood and most critics have taken complete offense to the film's visual effects, Burdemic was supposedly made for just ten thousand dollars. and is shown complete with bird sprites that don't contrast well with the larger image and move in extremely awkward and unrealistic ways if you're going to make a movie for ten grand. dollars do something original don't try to do what alfred hitchcock already did decades before hey, those people on that bus are being attacked by those birds before you continue, be sure to subscribe to our channel and ring the bell to receive notifications about our latest videos.

It's a shame too because the introductory silhouette shot looks really cool and menacing, and then moves. We love mummy movies, but this is hard to forgive. Do you agree with our selections?
