Spider-Man No Way Home CGI Vs. The Real Scene

CGI in Future Marvel Movies

CGI often becomes a hot talking point among moviegoers, with a lot of debate about how good or bad it is. When it comes to Spider-Man: No Way Home, it has received a fair bit of criticism online for having CGI that fans claim to be lackluster. However, as this video shows, the VFX teams are able to pull off some fairly impressive feats. When viewers were sitting in their respective theaters and watching No Way Home, most people probably had no idea that it wasn’t a real costume.

It is important to remember that technology is always evolving. Computer-generated imagery in 2022 is much more advanced than it was in 2002, and it will continue to get better as time passes. For example, projects like The Mandalorian use a rather new method of filming known as The Volume. It is a massive device that is designed to reduce the number of green screens, and it allows filmmakers to create an environment that looks nearly lifelike.

Upcoming MCU films such as Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania and Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 are reportedly putting The Volume to use. However, even though it does away with environmental CGI, it wouldn’t help with something such as a Spider-Man suit.

At the end of the day, CGI will have a place in MCU films for years to come. It is likely that some sort of advanced technology will come along at some point and take its place, but as of right now, VFX teams are working as hard as they can to bring a product to the big screen that looks as realistic as it can.
