The Russo Brothers on Monday surprised all Marvel fans when they dropped the first trailer for ‘Avengers: Doomsday’, which caused a frenzy on social media. While the previews have blown millions of minds and the trailer has helped sell all the top-grossing tickets, a section of viewers have criticized the look of the film for its “unfinished” and “unpolished” CGI.
Fans point to ‘unfinished’ CGI
As soon as the trailer dropped, social media sites were flooded with negative comments about the film. One fan wrote, “The VFX and visual quality of #AvengersDoomsday looks odd and unpolished. Some of the close-ups look like a green screen with no edge cleaning and lighting!”Another viewer echoed the same sentiment, saying, “I still feel like the VFX in some of the scenes in Avengers Doomsday seem a little lacking, definitely some work is needed to improve it. We have time for the film to release in December. Other than that I’m looking forward to it. “Another comment read, “Avengers Doomsday Trailer 1st impression: OKAYISH. Maybe because of the pre-leaks. But I have to say that the VFX & CGI are not up to the mark. In the era of AI, Seedance 2.0 makes better videos. Let’s see, maybe they will fix it until the movie hits the theaters.”Another said, “Very average trailer. Doesn’t give you Avengers vibes. VFX looks bad. What’s going on with the CGI?” while another added, “Doomsday visuals don’t justify the budget”
The pictures of ‘Avengers: Doomsday’ will change
Not everyone was worried about CGI, with several fans pointing out that scenes in blockbuster movies often continue to be edited until shortly before release.Another user wrote, “The Avengers: Doomsday trailer just dropped and yes, the VFX on the Thor/Doom showdown needs work, but the scale of the deal – the X-Men meeting the Avengers properly for the first time – makes it hard to care about the little unfinished shot. December 18th can’t come soon enough.”Many have noted that past Marvel previews have shown insufficient visuals that are polished before the film’s release.
Indian fans compare it to Ramayana
The controversy was popular among Indian film buffs, many of whom compared the trailer to the recently released ‘Ramayana’ trailer, praising Nitesh Tiwari Directed and produced by Namit Malhotra for his shows and VFX.Fans took to social media to compare Hollywood and Indian films, especially following the positive response to the ‘Ramayana’ trailer.Several Indian users have commented that ‘Ramayana’ looks good despite the fact that its images have only been seen in the first trailer and the trailer that was leaked before its release on July 24. “Ramayana’s one minute trailer looks funnier and richer than the #Doomsday trailer,” one fan wrote. Another wrote, “I don’t think the Ramayana VFX will be any worse than the latest Doomsday trailer... If you know, you know… It’s bad as hell and they tried to hide it with several things. I’m comparing cart to cart right now.”Others went further, with posts that read, “People aren’t lying when they say Ramayana Trailer >> Doomsday Trailer,” and, “Anonymous opinion: 144p #Ramayana leak > 4K #Doomsday trailer.”Another said, “I have seen Indians criticizing our film and liking The Odyssey and Avengers and what not, when they had many faults. But there is not a single word of criticism. Criticizing something is good, but you have to show the same attitude of a Hollywood movie as well. Doomsday pictures do not justify the budget.”Another source said, “People don’t understand what the film is selling. Ramayana itself promised great VFX and made its visuals its USP. If you set those expectations, the audience will judge you accordingly. And let’s be real, no one is saying that Doomsday CGI has left the world. “
