I really hate CGI, but everything was done with CGI in Lucas area is much better than any live action thing (like clones) that the disney has done.. The Ahsoka show is the first which almost crosses the line and almost looks as good as the CGI clones, but it is still not perfect.. But in disney area Ahsoka is the first that has believable lightsaber fights and movement at least (and it does not look like a fanmade all the time) edit: please leave it at 66 like :D

[@BactaAddict]

@@marco002the phase 2 clones in ahsoka look really good, otherwise it’s really not that great. The phase one troopers are an awkward blend between animation and live action, Rex has his bicep armor pieces on backwards, his pauldron is way too small and arguably the wrong kind of pauldron anyway. But I’m still happy to see him in live action

[@jwil07]

Yeah, CGI for me all the way. I like all clones don't get me wrong but they have to be uniform and the live action ones look weird in some shots. Some have backwards armor, on one guy the helmet looks too small, etc.

I've always loved the look of the CGI clones. They look so much better and more intimidating

[@YodaOnABender]

The fact that none of the clones in the prequels were real and were all cgi still amazes me. I don't know why but I think cgi works a lot better for the clones, the same way it works better for characters like Master Chief. Live action just comes with so many imperfections that can come across as looking sort of fan-made or plastic that cgi doesn't.

[@Zooka128]

I mean the fact that every clone movement is individually mocapped helps a lot. It's very easy because all of their movements are real, they're not animated by someone, they're all motion captured and then they just rig the models. Even when you see the clones loading into the cruisers, they could have easily just repeated the same animation for most of the clones but if you look, they've been rigorous with their mocapping and lots of the animations are unique to each clone. It's one of the things that I dislike about like Rebels for example, because most of the movements are so artificial-looking that I just can't really get into it.

[@nazberg445]

Real clone troopers are better on account of reality. You are better immersed in the world and not put off by the almost video-game-cutscene look of the clones. The cgi troopers just looks rather cheap and tacky

The troopers not standing together in Ahsoka makes sense in a tactical sense. Soldiers don't group up together, just makes you an easier target. The spacing between them in the scene would actually be incredibly close in real life.

Please tell me I'm not the only one who prefers the old CGI clones. The live-action ones are fine but the armor looks like literal plastic, especially when you can see it (kinda) falling off in some shots like it did in the new Ahsoka episode. The CGI at least makes it look real and like it fits the wearer, which makes sense since the clones are all literally a single body type.

[@Mat-hr1dg]

I'm not gonna lie: I had no idea that anyone else other than Temura Morrison played the older clones in the sequels. The younger versions look so much like him that I'm honestly amazed. Also: The CGI back then was so good that aside from the group shots on Kamino and the boarding of the troop ships during the end of aotc I didn't know they were CGI and the only times where I ever had a suspicion that something didn't look right was during Yodas command on Geonosis in the commanding station to shoot down the ships and with Yoda AGAIN in Episode 3 on Kashyyyk. Those 2 clones beside him just didn't seem right. But at the time I thought it was improper use of Greenscreen and CGI Yoda being the target for grounded visuals. I had no idea at the time, that all of them were CGI and honestly in SDR you can't tell. There were actually scenes in the Prequels that looked better on well upscaled DVDs instead of BluRay because the upscaled image still looked more believable than the actual high res native image. That being said I think most of the scenes the clones still hold up well. I never found them to draw me out of the movies and funnily enough I still meet many people that have no idea the clones weren't actual humans but CGI.

[@shao5136]

yeah and dont forget the movies came out 2002 and 2005. They where just ahead of the time. I believe strongly that george lucas made the right decision back then to use CGI for the clone army. The CGI of the clones could even be further enhanced if they would have sticked to it. Imagine how they would look today with the CGI of nowdays technology...

[@G31M1]

I think that becomes very apparent in the Ahsoka Series ahhah

[@Real_History]

I remember reading somewhere that Lucas realised after Attack of the Clones that these 'highly trained' clones didn't really look like they were all that highly trained at all, primarily because they were animated by, well, animators who had no military experience. Hence the standing around shooting from the hip all the time. So he got some former military guys in for Revenge of the Sith to do the motion capture and it really shows. We actually see them moving and fighting like soldiers that know what they're doing.

[@superluigi9490]

I have so many thoughts on this. I love the consistency they have with the clones with live action vs animation. All animated clones and even Boba and Jango Fett on some occasions are Dee Bradley Baker. Danial Logan played kid Boba in live action and Clone Wars. I think he was even adult Boba in Lego Star Wars. Dee was even the clones for Battlefront 2 2017, which was awesome to hear. But all future appearances of the clones and Boba in live action (and a few games) was Temuera Morrison. I love that. It separates them, but not at all too much. It’s a great consistency with media. And with Battlefront 2, new and old, he’s Boba Fett. Connects to the movies and shows, AND separates Boba just enough in game to not just feel like another clone, but truly one of his own, but still connected. Best move they could’ve done to connect all the media together. My thoughts feel scattered with this comment, but you get the idea.

Let’s get technical. In return of the Jedi, it’s said the old man with the beard is Commander Rex.

[@itsheresy]

I was a critic of the obsession with only representing the clones as CGI, but after seeing them in Ahsoka, the Lucas era clones are clearly superior.. In Ahsoka we had overweight clones, short clones, taller clones, it was silly... especially early on in the clone wars they'd all be identical, not just whatever random extra was thoughtlessly put in clone armor waddling around in-shot. Disney just doesn't have the attention to detail, or willingness, to fill background characters properly.

[@erika_itsumi5141]

most of those, Overweight clones, thats there actual armor that they themselves built. that's why it still fits but the proportions are off did you really think disney made actual clone armor for extras???
