the scale doesn't look off to me, but I can see what you mean. the shape of it is similar to some kind of pod for a single person. probably just pattern recognition
The scale seems off because the style choices suggest functions they can't have at the suggested scale, and because the technology making the scale possible is invisible - so instead of being amazing and daunting it just appears goofy large
Yeah it looks kind of like an alarm clock that you'd keep on a stand next to your bed, it has that sort of style of small modern electronic gadgets, like Apple products. So it seems like it should be just a few inches across.
But this is supposed to be a giant spaceship? Can anyone tell me why the sense of scale looks off?
What do any of the parts do? That looks like a regular sized window, feet, and maybe a handhold. The shape makes sense for a one-man capsule. At the supposed real scale, none of that has any meaning except the feet which are absurdly tiny
It's because the surface is all smooth like a single small object instead of being full of numerous fiddly bits that would compose such a gigantic ship, like Star Wars destroyers.
This, there are no greebles to suggest something huge and realistic. It just comes across as idealized concept art pasted onto the scenery.

I don't think it's the lack of greebles. The other ships(the ones coming out of the water or the giant one in space) are similarly smooth but don't feel small. This just looks like a small alarm clock.
It works for me if i look at the soldiers. Gives me the exact feeling of looking at book covers as a kid. Took me right back just now to being in the bookstore seeing one of the 'Dune suchandsuch'
Even in the film it looks odd. A ship of that scale should cause some atmospheric disturbance(like displacing clouds, blowing up dust) to give it a sense of scale.
It's because there's no texture and everything looks to be on the same plane. Midwits say he did it in purpose to make it look more "alien". That's just a pathetic excuse. It's bad CGI and Villeneuve has a track record of being inept at showing perspective, depth and scale.
Maybe it's the shadows? It's not casting large enough shadows for the ship of its scale or it could be that the overcast skies don't allow for large shadows, idk.
Clouds on the mountain in the background, it's foggy, but there are no clouds or fog obstructing the audience's view of it. There should be shadows of clouds on the smooth surface at least. They did a poor job of incorporating this structure with it's surroundings.
It’s a story about how Islam is right and the NWO and the feminist cult both (sort of) get btfo by the prophet
There’s also a minor message about how we shouldn’t rely on gasoline but that’s another topic
You should stop watching movie adaptations that are made by producers who think the public is moronic and instead read the books made by an author, of the original work, who assumes his readers are competent

It's a no-ship. A spaceship that's invisible to prescience (e.g. Guild navigators).
No isn't you wiki moron, no-ships won't exist for another 3000 years

You're not funny.
Is that what Jamie said when he kicked you out of Mythbusters, Adam?
Villeneuve has only enough imagination to design minimalist ships and structures
the ground looks too flat and shiny for such a scale
you have to click the picture to enlarge it
Because Greig Fraser is a hack
>Can anyone tell me why the sense of scale looks off?
Yeah, I can help out; you need to see a fricking ophthalmologist. Your eyes are proper FRICKED.

It only made sense after I looked at the soldiers but the feel of it is just off.
because the same composition works of that's a one man pod and those are weeds by the water and not full grown trees
and the mountain?
the mountain could just be further away
>and the mountain

>looks off?
No? You probably watched too much Dragon Ball.
It's because there's no texture and everything looks to be on the same plane. Midwits say he did it in purpose to make it look more "alien". That's just a pathetic excuse. It's bad CGI and Villeneuve has a track record of being inept at showing perspective, depth and scale.
Criticism of this film's visual style is like shooting fish in a barrel. At the very least, let's have some fricking color.
Villeneuve's shitty foggy flat grey aesthetic is passable in cityscapes but he absolutely cannot do landscapes or negative space, really.
Maybe it's the shadows? It's not casting large enough shadows for the ship of its scale or it could be that the overcast skies don't allow for large shadows, idk.
Clouds on the mountain in the background, it's foggy, but there are no clouds or fog obstructing the audience's view of it. There should be shadows of clouds on the smooth surface at least. They did a poor job of incorporating this structure with it's surroundings.
That's a good point. It should be obscured by some fogg at the top.
Fog in the background but not the foreground makes something that already looks small appear even smaller. It pushes the object to the foreground.
Are the shadows on the ground accurate for a ship of this scale?
villeneuve is just a soulless nolan, complete fricking hack whose work I will never watch again
>this thread
And this is the problem cg will never be able to overcome vs. practical effects. Aspect and lighting effect.
Which CGI slop is this?
season 2 of Foundation. They spent all the money on episode 1 of season 1.
Can you not see how small the people are? moronic esl
>Can you not see how small the people are?
I already did which is when I realised it's supposed to be a large ship
. That's not enough to sell the illusion of scale midwit. It just looks like there are even smaller toys.
also the camera is placed up in the sky, making the perspective seem as if the thing is geing viewed at eye level
Dunc is an evil WEF movie

easy. The legs are too small.
Should I watch it or just more goyslop?

Makes sense, thx anon.
