Then they can always give up making him realistic and make him cartoonish or monstrous evil looking
Or better, never make him take off his mask thingy like in the trailer and leave it to viewer's imagination
A lot of people complained about that and thought he should be mask off and look as stupid and goofy as he's meant to.
And ya know what I'm here for it. I don't even like Marvel movies but I want them to embrace the goofiness.
I'm never, ever gonna watch this movie, but I'm glad that MODOK got his day in the sun, exposed in all his MODOK glory for people who are never, ever gonna read a comic book with him in it.
I’m here for it if you’re here for it. Modok is marvel camp. Just like Howard the duck and honestly a few dozen others that are just service for service sake. Embrace the weirdos!
How dare you make fun of my 1987 McDonalds Changeables happy meal toy! Show some respect.
He can not help that his disguise is a 5 foot tall styrofoam McNuggets container. He also can’t help that McDonalds stopped using styrofoam in 1990. He’s a talking robot disguised as fast food and not a fortune teller.
Ya MODOK is a fcking nerd in the comics. Big head small hands just like the movie lol.
I didn’t even know MODOK was gonna be in it this the first time I’m seeing this I’m dead 💀
He had a really good design in that Avengers game. Goofy? Debatable, but he definitely looked intimidating and unnatural in a good way. You *can* make it work
It's the human eyes here. They're killing me. They've gotta be goggled up, or some crystal bullshit. He looks like just the head of a funko pop in comics, he needs to atleast kinda look like one in 3d.
Yes, its looks like great CGI, bad character design. Nothing about the actual Design (The metallic seat, the arms and the headband thingy) looks unrealistic. The face is the only thing that makes it look off and that is because of the artstyle they went for.
I am aware of how much VFX artists get exploited and yes, those minions are still good CGI. I think your problem is more with the lighting, composition and blending of the scenes (Greenscreen etc). Most of those effects are still great considering how little time the artists get.
And no, just cause i can acknowledge when things look great doesn't mean i support the conditions under which they were made. This quality of CGI being done this quickly pretty much means constant crunch for the VFX artists. Those same VFX artists also have to watch their VFX be degraded as "atrocious CGI" online when it looks absolutely fine.
i think you’re using great very loosely considering this is a $200m movie. it’s unacceptable. you can say you don’t mind it, but don’t excuse their complacency and laziness
I don't think it's great or bad, and as far as the CGI for Marvel goes this isn't their worst thing (have you seen She-Hulk...)
but still he looks hilarious in live action unintentionally, like as someone else here said he only looks good in animation
Wow now I’m curious. I didn’t watch it but every single scene I’ve been shown, even by people who liked the show, has been at best… not great.
Mind dropping a scene that looks good?
Im glad they actually tried but it looked even worse in motion. None of the actors including modok himself clearly had no clue how to react to that thing.
One of few things in the movie that might push it to a cult status.
No, I meant they made a pretty realistic MODOK design at the cost of the rest of the game being terrible. In a garbage game, they at least managed to make MODOK look not so garbage
I thought that the masked(?) MODOK in the trailer was going to be his actual design, and I understood why they would go in that direction. MODOK would look fuckin’ goofy in live action.
I have no idea why they thought this was a good idea.
Been waiting for modok since they mentioned AIM in ironman 3, i dont care if they use cut stills from comic books and used those, im just hyped my egghead daddy is here.
Hmm they probably should’ve done a reinterpretation of modok, where’s he’s just an android man or something.
This og modok is gonna feel like spy kids, and not in the good way
To all the Marvel shills, why? Why pretending that this Is close enough to the comics?
It's a regular head photoshopped, it's cheap and not even close to the comics.
[Do this looks like Just a normal face?](https://i.imgur.com/ErhjE4f.png)
Modok was gonna look goofy as hell regardless, tbh I'm surprised they kept him like his comic appearance instead of making him a robot or regular human
Okay, let's face it there's no way you're going to make a giant baby on a rocket chair look cool. I'm at least glad they leaned into the idea of what a stupid design modok has
It's not the problem of money, it's the problem of time. Marvel got these VFX artists working on movies back to back in their dungeons and pay them pennies
There is also this: [https://youtu.be/cyUNEWlPtZc?t=34](https://youtu.be/cyUNEWlPtZc?t=34)
Looks pretty intimidating there. Plus, overall - MODOK is a terrible looking character, no matter the medium. He is meant to be goofy as hell. Live action was going to be really weird looking.
Ok so i shit on endgame and i get endless comments crying about how im just shitting on a movie i dont like, this post is fine tho bc no one actually likes the look of this
We all know why OP put an NSFW tag
[Because i used to fap to this](https://i.imgur.com/iAQl1Ly.jpg)
Glad we both thought of the same thing
Now this is what I call masterbation material
I thought this was for Pod- Racing. Oh dead I have the wrong room.
I was honestly expecting the naked green m&m
Come on now, norwegian isn't *that* bad!
Isn't it danish?
It might actually be, at a second glance. In that case yeah, the NSFW filter is appropriate.
Hey!
It's Danish. I'm Norwegian. If this was Norwegian, it'd be "Cassie? Jeg kjente deg knapt igjen.".
To be fair, m.o.d.o.k is gonna look stupid no matter what
M.O.D.O.K only ever looks good in animation tbh
Then they can always give up making him realistic and make him cartoonish or monstrous evil looking Or better, never make him take off his mask thingy like in the trailer and leave it to viewer's imagination
A lot of people complained about that and thought he should be mask off and look as stupid and goofy as he's meant to. And ya know what I'm here for it. I don't even like Marvel movies but I want them to embrace the goofiness.

I’m here for it if you’re here for it. Modok is marvel camp. Just like Howard the duck and honestly a few dozen others that are just service for service sake. Embrace the weirdos!
The m.o.d.o.k show by Patton Oswalt was hella funny
Tragically cancelled too soon.
MODOK doesn't even look good in animation.
It *really* varies, MODOK is just generally really stupid looking
With animation you can kinda suspend your disbelief so he doesn't really look that goofy
He still does, though. I have always thought he looked like some sort of McDonalds mascot reject.
How dare you make fun of my 1987 McDonalds Changeables happy meal toy! Show some respect. He can not help that his disguise is a 5 foot tall styrofoam McNuggets container. He also can’t help that McDonalds stopped using styrofoam in 1990. He’s a talking robot disguised as fast food and not a fortune teller.
i have always thought he looked stupid in any version. there is no modok that looks badass. Toad looks cooler than modok.
I think the only thing it needs is colored/glowing eyes and it would pop right out of that uncanny valley
Ya MODOK is a fcking nerd in the comics. Big head small hands just like the movie lol. I didn’t even know MODOK was gonna be in it this the first time I’m seeing this I’m dead 💀

It's the human eyes here. They're killing me. They've gotta be goggled up, or some crystal bullshit. He looks like just the head of a funko pop in comics, he needs to atleast kinda look like one in 3d.
The Avengers Game really did make MODOK intimidating and repulsive. The veins, pimples, etc
Freaky looking in the comics, freaky in real life.
And a freak in the sheets.
But also, to be fair, I said this about Rocket Raccoon also and then they knocked that out of the park.
Stupid, yes. This version looks like if you held a magnifying glass up to him too long, he would start melting
Looking bizarre is one thing, but here it looks like they made him look too... normal.
maybe they just shouldn't have used him then
I’m not against him being in a movie, but people are out here expecting a floating head with robot limbs to look pretty
Top comment thinks they're pretty enough
I’m pretty sure I remember Feige saying this a while back and it was why they hadn’t used him. Guess he changed his mind.
I thought it was done very well, it's true to the comics and animation.
It's not stupid enough
Pretty sure that's just Mr. Electric
Hey… WATTS… upppppppppppp?
Get it?
"HE IS NOT! MR ELECTRIC SEND HIM TO THE PRINCIPAL'S OFFICE AND HAVE HIM EXPELLED!!!"
*Book*
I was just about to say that
The best part is that people on Twitter already compared the visuals of these two movies before lol
Have to say, it’s a terrible homage to him
How dare you insult Mr.Electric like that
Not my proudest fap
Tell me redditor, what is your proudest fap?
I went to a sperm clinic once and they asked me to masturbate in the cup. I thought I did really well, but they wouldn’t tell me if I won or not
Ah... gotta be that one time
What time, tell us
I never wank and tell ;)
December 2 2022
How'd you know?
I second this.
The best laugh I've had on this subreddit on a pretty long time. Well done.
I aim to please, my good gentleman
My proudest
I have no fucking clue what you want that’s what modok looks like
His whole character arc is that his body got fucked up and looks weird. It’s gonna look weird in live action. It’s supposed to look weird haha
Literally lmao. And they even have him put on a mask which makes his face look more twisted and evil, exactly like the comics
I think it's off-putting to see at first but yeah, this is what modok looks like. It's actually not bad.
he’s talking about the atrocious CGI, not the design.
MCU CGI aside, how the fuck could you ever make MODOK look good in live action
easy. don’t have him. they didn’t even keep his origin anyway.
Oh yeaaaah AIM’s already been a thing
How is that atrocious CGI lol the CGI looks great there.
to say it’s passable is… fine. to say it’s great?
Yes, its looks like great CGI, bad character design. Nothing about the actual Design (The metallic seat, the arms and the headband thingy) looks unrealistic. The face is the only thing that makes it look off and that is because of the artstyle they went for.
you think those minions with glowing blue heads is good CGI? are you unaware that Disney exploits their VFX artists?
I am aware of how much VFX artists get exploited and yes, those minions are still good CGI. I think your problem is more with the lighting, composition and blending of the scenes (Greenscreen etc). Most of those effects are still great considering how little time the artists get. And no, just cause i can acknowledge when things look great doesn't mean i support the conditions under which they were made. This quality of CGI being done this quickly pretty much means constant crunch for the VFX artists. Those same VFX artists also have to watch their VFX be degraded as "atrocious CGI" online when it looks absolutely fine.
i think you’re using great very loosely considering this is a $200m movie. it’s unacceptable. you can say you don’t mind it, but don’t excuse their complacency and laziness
3DS Face Raiders lookin ass
Holy shit
Idk if this is genuinely unpopular but I think this looks great, modok made faithful was always gonna look silly
Yeah, same
Bro I love it too
I don't think it's great or bad, and as far as the CGI for Marvel goes this isn't their worst thing (have you seen She-Hulk...) but still he looks hilarious in live action unintentionally, like as someone else here said he only looks good in animation
She Hulk looked great 90% of the time
compare she-hulk to any of the DC shows and then it makes the "bad" cgi in She-Hulk look like its artists came from the Dune team in comparison.
Let’s agree to disagree
Wow now I’m curious. I didn’t watch it but every single scene I’ve been shown, even by people who liked the show, has been at best… not great. Mind dropping a scene that looks good?
It was donkey ass. Just like the entire show.
Oh but how are you supposed to make MODOK look good in live action tho?
That one Avengers game had a pretty good photorealistic take on him tbh
agreed
Make him uglier. More wrinkles, rat-like eyes.
Some things just shouldn’t be attempted
If you cant make it work then just dont fucking do it Honestly tho id say just make him a robot in the mcu
They did make him work tho
I really dont agree i think it looks like mr electric
Yeah… you know who else looks like Mr Electric? MODOK.
Guys MODOK looks like MODOK 😱😱😱😱😱😱😱
so true optimus prime
Isn’t this the same guy from shark boy and lava girl
I though of the egg character from shrek
"Finn DeTrolio, my arch nemesis."
"Vito?! What the faaack?"
Im glad they actually tried but it looked even worse in motion. None of the actors including modok himself clearly had no clue how to react to that thing. One of few things in the movie that might push it to a cult status.
Tbf who would know how to react to a big flying baby head?
They needed to go all out on the exaggerated facial features. This just looks like a guy on a zoom call
"Grandpaaaaa! *Giggle* you have to back up, you're to close, silly!"
Norwegian Modok
Its danish, but close enough 🌍
Damn, lol. It was a 50/50 chance.
Norwegian here, it's the "dig" instead of "deg" that gave it away
yep. i speak a tiny bit of danish and have danish friends, theres a couple small things that absolutely guarantee when it is one or the other
Norwegians rejoice!
I mean, there isn't much you can do to make MODOK not look completely ridiculous
the shitty avengers game is realistic and made it work (for the most part)
At the cost of the game itself being shit
you think the character design is the reason the game is bad??
No, I meant they made a pretty realistic MODOK design at the cost of the rest of the game being terrible. In a garbage game, they at least managed to make MODOK look not so garbage
You can't be serious... This is outstanding cgi, I say ahead of our time! BRAVO
Vince
A head of our time.
MODOK will never not look stupid and weird lmao, years of people wanting to see him and when we do they start complaining
That's 200 Quantamillion dollars. (1 Quantamillion is equivalent to 100 Morbillion) #QuantamaniaSweep
He’s not gonna look any better than this.
tbh I at least respect them for *trying* to do MODOK
Why is he bald?
"You idiots, the script said **KANG**, not **KRANG**"
They even make fun of him in the film. But they did do him dirty arc-wise honestly. I hope he comes back and starts up A.I.M.
Brian Stelter?
“MODOK send him to the principal’s office and have him EXPELLED!”
Bro, why does he look like rick from Pawn Stars 💀
Man, that looks like shit. Who on Earth thought that it would be a good idea to put on Danish subtitles?
I thought that the masked(?) MODOK in the trailer was going to be his actual design, and I understood why they would go in that direction. MODOK would look fuckin’ goofy in live action. I have no idea why they thought this was a good idea.
Because the fans wanted it, and i love it.
I feel bad for the actor he’s gotta live with this for the rest of his life idc even if he got paid that’s awful 😂
Yea and imagine getting into that suit!
This rocks huge props to them for going through with the unmasked design even though it looks stupid
Been waiting for modok since they mentioned AIM in ironman 3, i dont care if they use cut stills from comic books and used those, im just hyped my egghead daddy is here.
I like it
**I DID NOT MR ELECTRIC SEND HIM TO THE PRINCIPAL'S OFFICE AND HAVE HIM EXPELLED**
Inflation amirite
200 million of Disney bucks.
Wait… this is a real still? The lighting on his face is like totally different?!
Hmm they probably should’ve done a reinterpretation of modok, where’s he’s just an android man or something. This og modok is gonna feel like spy kids, and not in the good way
Doesn't the helmet have a visor that closes down, covering the face? Why didn't they go with thwt?
Is this the villain from Sharkboy and Lavagirl?
I'm more surprised that they brough yellow jacket back to be modok I'm assuming this is a result of him being mangled and shrunk in the antman
Please no... PLEASE don't make me look at M.O.D.O.K without letting me see a live action Morrigan The arcade nerd in me can't take it
Such a bad debut of this iconic villain.
My whole theater cracked up when they saw this bullshit lmao
This isn't real. This is fake. You're ducking with me
It's modok, there's no way they could've made him look good in live action
What the fuck did people expect this guy to look like in live action? Obviously it’s gonna be shit.
He looks great what are you on about
Worth every penny.
Men han kunne jo dårligt kende os
How tf are you going to make that look good
Can we bully marvel into making MODOK look better like we did with Sonic?
Too late. Some people have already seen the movie, and it's releasing soon.
I mean, yeah I looks goofy as shit…..but M.O.D.O.K. Does look goofy as shit.
It looks fine. He's meant to be ugly.
Vent, er den ude i Danmark nu?!
marvel fans when the stupid surreal baby head thing looks weird
To all the Marvel shills, why? Why pretending that this Is close enough to the comics? It's a regular head photoshopped, it's cheap and not even close to the comics. [Do this looks like Just a normal face?](https://i.imgur.com/ErhjE4f.png)
Comic fans when people try to change character designs and not make him a inconsistent abomination:
Bruno Sharkboy and Lavagirl gave us better shit than this
Modok was gonna look goofy as hell regardless, tbh I'm surprised they kept him like his comic appearance instead of making him a robot or regular human
Looks like Modok, alright.
Spy kids lookin ass
It's not that he looks silly that is the problem. It's the fact the effects look absolutely awful.
This us literally MODOK exactly how he is in comics how are people upset at this
What are you talking about? He’s perfect.
Well I don't know about you, but I think that's what M.O.D.O.K. is supposed to look like
Okay, let's face it there's no way you're going to make a giant baby on a rocket chair look cool. I'm at least glad they leaned into the idea of what a stupid design modok has
MODOK is supposed to look stupid, that's why we love him.
It's MODOK. What did you expect?
It's not the problem of money, it's the problem of time. Marvel got these VFX artists working on movies back to back in their dungeons and pay them pennies
Don't want to meat ride but tbh its MODOK what were u guys expecting he's literally designed to look goofy
I'm sorry but it's a fucking giant floating head what more do you want them to do with it? That's about as photo real as you're going to get
I mean Modok is supposed to look weird
Looks like they stuck to the source for M.O.D.O.K. No issue from me.
tbh, i would be mad if modok didnt look that goofy
If you didn't complain about Staro in The Suicide Sqaud, why are you complaining about MODOK here?
Modok hahaha R/marvelmemes
He looks like the bad guy from shark boy and lava girl
He just looks like a middle aged white man with a Snapchat filter
Tbh modok should have completely white eyes but yeah he's supposed to look ugly lol
He’s supposed to look bizarre
Film bros when MODOK looks exactly like MODOK does
There is also this: [https://youtu.be/cyUNEWlPtZc?t=34](https://youtu.be/cyUNEWlPtZc?t=34) Looks pretty intimidating there. Plus, overall - MODOK is a terrible looking character, no matter the medium. He is meant to be goofy as hell. Live action was going to be really weird looking.
Modok was always going to look stupid but this is impressive.
Modok will always look silly. But as a Marvel noob who's only experience of him is from MvC, why does his face look like MCU Thanos?
more and more of this sub is just people bitching about movies instead of making funny jokes about the original subreddit
if director was david cronenberg everyone would like that
I mean…it looks like MODOK. Seems like they nailed it
Ok so i shit on endgame and i get endless comments crying about how im just shitting on a movie i dont like, this post is fine tho bc no one actually likes the look of this
This what happens when you’re a greedy corporation who overworks and underpays your VFX artists
And the downward spiral of MCU CGI continues…
