Worst Digital Character of all Time.

[Captain America]

This piece of crap.

I was highly disappointed in Letterier's Incredible Hulk. There are some shots where it looks as though they didn't even try and render the CG; i.e the shot where he's about to kick Roth's character. Aweful. The design of the Hulk himself is better than the 2003 movie, but ILM did a better job rendering Ang's Hulk.

 

[S.A.A.D.]

Ang Lee's super lame looking and super painfully fake looking Hulk,and The Scorpion King.

 

[Golgo-13]

Scorpion King too.

The fact that The Phantom Menace was over 10 years ago and people still cannot let Jar Jar Binks go, tells me A LOT about people.

 

[Bim]

For me the Alpha Zombie from I Am Legend.

Honorable mention to the Scorpion King though, dear lord that was really bad CGI

 

[Captain America]

It's a pretty close one between jar jar and the alpha zombie for me. Both characters hurt their movies big time. Although "I am Legend" could have been saved a bit if not for those rubbery ass zombies

if someone took a big stinky diarrhea dump in your eyes, and then made you snort puss from an infected skunks butt you would still hold a grudge after 10 years too.

This is not a frame from the film, that's a statue.

I knew you'd do that! lol
Well Dobby was the first on screen successful use of subsurface scattering. No Gollum wasn't, Weta didn't do it right until the ROTK.

 

[Mace Dolex]

the scorpion king CGI in close up is bad. when in the 80's they showed fake puppets in close up..............it was not bad?

The Yoda puppet used in ESB and ROTJ was more believable than all the CGI characters from the prequels.

 

[:eek:]

The monsters in Stephen King's The Langoliers...

 

[Mogwai]

jar jar. he needed to be toned-down.

It's not like their obsessing about him randomly. People are being asked who the worst digital character is. And he's a pretty common answer.

People are still complimenting Gollum after nearly a decade as well. It goes both ways.

''It was also used to simulate the skin on Gollum in Lord of the Rings 2 & 3''

I voted for Jar-Jar, more based on the fact that he was a horrible character. The CGI was also cartoonish, but not really the worst I've ever seen.

As for the I Am Legend zombies, Scooby Do and Garfield...their CGI designs were atrocious. And Ang Lee's Hulk, I thought, looked pretty silly.

But really, there are even worse characters that should have made this list, at least in terms of appearance. The Scorpion King for sure, also the Mummy himself whenever he was all (or mostly) CGI.

Most of the new Transformers in Revenge of the Fallen looked like crap. They didn't necessarily look fake... but most of them were a complicated mess (especially Devestator) and it was often difficult to tell what the hell you were looking at. And ALL of their personalities sucked.

The designs weren't terrible, but I'd have to say that all of the characters in Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within sucked. Every single one had the personality of a toaster oven.

The alien and the Dr. Smith monster in Lost in Space were awful. Actually, everything in that movie was awful.

I don't see how Dobby is bad CGI. Unless your critiquing how hideous he looks or how annoying he was. If so I agree. He was an annoying ass creature. But I do think thet did a wonderful job rendering him into the film.

@ venomvspidey, here's a good and fair answer:

that's how he was supposed to be, it was the way he acted in the books too

first i will writte that i think Yoda in ESB is a fantastic character.

but fact is that he looks like a 100% puppet. he looks like puppet. he looks 100% fake. but i didnt care in the 90's when i saw the movie for the first time.
