Five minutes into episode 1 of “The Acolyte”: it looks like a show shot with a $50 high school play budget. What a disgrace to both Star Wars and Disney.
@gruber it’s worth sticking with it for episode 5
@caseyliss @BenRiceM @gruber that, and maybe turn on filmmaker mode on your TV (or turn off all the motion smoothing stuff)? It never looked cheap to me tbh. I quite like that they are doing something new and enjoy it a lot more than Ahsoka.
@janwedek @caseyliss @BenRiceM You think this shot looks like it’s outdoors?
@gruber @caseyliss @BenRiceM you said “first five minutes”, which IIRC is the bar scene fights which I don’t think looks cheap to “be ashamed off”. That said, the forrest scenes did bother me neither tbh. Episode 5 was quite good regardless. Environment looked better than in the final Obi Wan Darth Vader fight.
@gruber @caseyliss @BenRiceM also, from that screenshot, you like have all the oversharpening etc of the TV on, which makes such scenes look way worse.
@gruber well sure. If the setting is a gorge.
@gruber
Yeah I haven't had that thought once. Not sure what you are referencing. The scene in the photo looks good to me.
