Paid Members bAzTNM#1 Posted March 7, 2017 Paid Members Share Posted March 7, 2017 Dick Jones falling out of the window in Robocop, which we will all agree is an absolutely flawless film, until this shot   Must have watched "Robocop" a gazillion times and never noticed this. It'll be forever stuck in my head now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Egg Shen Posted March 7, 2017 Paid Members Share Posted March 7, 2017 Not CGI, but the original Terminator includes a couple of poor practical effects that were completely put of place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keith Houchen Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 The best falling from a roof one I saw was in Runaway, where Gene Simmons fell off a roof against Tom Selleck and shot back at him whilst falling. Yes it was Dar Robinson doing the stunt and I haven't watched it back in ages in case it wasn't that good in the first place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Sergio Mendacious Posted March 7, 2017 Paid Members Share Posted March 7, 2017 Everytime someone brings up Runaway I get horrible flashbacks to the robot spiders... I have dreamed about them off and on for nearly 30 years. The last time was only a week or so ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keith Houchen Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 Ah shit. I think that happened last time I mentioned that film Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Sergio Mendacious Posted March 7, 2017 Paid Members Share Posted March 7, 2017 It did, I think. I haven't ever been quite as bad as the first time my wife (to be, at that time) stayed at my parents house, and she was startled to find me on the landing at about 1am screaming about "The spiders!" and waving the duvet around. Â This time, I went to sleep about about 9pm, and woke up four or so hours later from a dream that I was convinced was real, where someone (Gene Simmons, I assume) poured a bucket of miniature versions of those spiders onto the bed. Didn't sleep again that night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â Yeah, that bit where he was fixing his hand looked a bit dodgy. Probably ok by 1984 standards though. Â Same bit copied in the Italian film "Hands of Steel".

Going off the trailers for the new film, the CGI looks a million times better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Surf Digby Posted March 7, 2017 Paid Members Share Posted March 7, 2017 Dick Jones falling out of the window in Robocop, which we will all agree is an absolutely flawless film, until this shot  I swear every time I watch the film his arms get longer. By the time Digby jnr gets to watch it he'll be like Mr Tickle.  This failure was apparently due to the model being built with proportions for a false perspective shot. They then shot it differently and he the model went, wherever I, did go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Bellenda Carlisle Posted March 8, 2017 Paid Members Share Posted March 8, 2017 I can't even see the words 'bad special effects' without instantly thinking of the surfing scene in Escape from LA, it's an automatic response   I hate bad CGI with a passion but I'm a helpless defender of bad practical effects, I just find them cool and endearing. I made the mistake of going to a sold out showing of The Terminator at the Prince Charles cinema so it was full of twats. I felt like swinging a fire extinguisher at the lot of them when this scene came on and everyone chuckled Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drkopen Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 The last Star Wars films attempt at resurrecting Peter Cushing was visually off and unnecessary. Â Hulk and The Incredible Hulk were both so bad I'd have rather they just did Lou Ferringo again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
