Hmm.Quoting amberlita (view post)
There's something really off about CGI Jeff Bridges.
Bulging cheeks, maybe? Or maybe it's just the damn orange lighting.
He looks cuddly. There's no other way to describe it. You just wanna pinch those puffy cheeks and go "cuddy cuddy cuddy cuddy. Yes, who's a good boy, who's a good boy eh?"

Well it is supposed to be his son, yes? So I'm okay with him looking a little different.
It's the eyes, too. They didn't get his eyes right.
What? No. His son is played by Garret Hedlund.Quoting Skitch (view post)

Although, actually, the second Clu was made when Flynn returned several years after the first Tron. So it makes sense that they look different.
Movie Theater DiaryQuoting Donald Glover
If it were just confined to the game, that would be fine, I could put it into my head as an "avatar" that isn't quite as detailed as it should be. But it's just so weird to see the CG Bridges tucking the young Garrett Hedlund into bed.
It's the cheeks, the jaw, the eyebrows, the generall puffiness of his face, and the unpexpressive eyes tucked so deeply into all of it. And once it's all in motion, the movements just don't seem to move or react fast enough to come across as an actual human personality (or even a well-done, falsely animated one, for that matter).
Hopefully it's still being rendered and refined and the footage looking the way it does in the trailers is a result of it being released months before the locking of the picture.

Watching the trailer for this before Inception got me so damn excited. I had a big fat grin on my face the whole time.

Different or not, it still just looks bad.
Poor CGI work there. Which is too bad because it's an effect that requires Avatar-levels of photorealism to really work.
"All right, that's too hot. Anything we can do about that heat?"
"Rick...it's a flamethrower."
I think it looks terrific.

I don't see how. It looks like a very typical CGI human face - plastic-y, doesn't move right, doesn't emote properly.
Unless they're cleaning it up a lot before the movie is actually released, I'm no impressed.

Indeed, but this really looks bad. I don't see that effect working.
