>>685394Star Wars was miniature models and matte painting and fireworks, no cgi at all. The first Star Wars movie with some cgi was Empire Strikes back.
What made it look so good was the Dykstraflex camera system.
>>685394because are miniatures, not CGI, dumb nigger.
>>685397Didn't the Lucas remakes use cgi.
>>685394George lucas hire team A space odyssey.

>>685421this was made recently by this Youtuber you retard.Read the comments.They also used to make cartoon graphics back then that were supposed to look like CGI though, eg for TRON

>>685394How young are you jesus fucking christ
Why are sgi machines so aesthetic? I miss the concept of bespoke hardware and the closest we will get these days is fpgas and shit like this
>>685429there is a fucking reason for the only 'real' cgi in this movie being wireframe/vector graphics because there was absolutely nothing in 79 that could have made filled let alone textured polygon graphics within reasonable time
>>685405A hilarious amount of it, people always make fun of the special editions for that very reason.
oof
>>685435Is 14 teraflops considered a lot? A titan v has 110.
>>685405Yes and it's extremely fucking jarring. We didn't really need stormtroopers riding dinosaurs in the background. Didn't really need a super cllosy digital flyby of the city on tatooine and the worst crime of all, we did NOT need CGI x-wings when the originals looked so damn good.
