Author Topic: Star Wars digital CG artifacts??? Joe Redifer unregistered posted 05-30-1999 04:05 AM              I have noticed the following several times while watching the same scene on a few different prints of Star wars Ep 1. It is near the beginning of the film, where Jedi Liam Neeson and his apprentice Obi-Wan Kenobi were running through the forest and all of the animals are running around as well, fleeing from the oncoming machinery. At one scene where it shows some animals quickly moving from the left side of the screen to the right (they are a little blurry) I can swear that I can see digital blockiness and perhaps even digital motion artifacts (similar to MPEG or DVD video -- both have tons of crappy digital/motion artifacts). Anybody else notice this? I think this is really bad for a "major" motion picture!
