Captain America 3 - Civil War TEAM SPOILERS

Yeah, de-aging stuff is probably better for stuff like this or how it was used in Tron, where it is part of the plot, rather than for a whole film.

Well, Tron 2 was easily the worst de-aging effect ever, but yes I agree, it should be used sparingly when it's necessary.

THAT'S how they did it? I just thought they found some kid who looked like him.

Nope.  They actually filmed his part of that scene in 1985.

It wasn't great and it wasn't a great movie, but I feel it made some kind of sense to the plot.  If it is just to make an actor look younger in a non-flashback seems like it would be an odd decision and feels like unless there's a larger point to it, it won't be used to make franchise leads look younger (especially since in most cases, age becomes part of the plot).

That was about a decade ago though

[Johnny Unusual]

6 years isn't really a decade.

[ScottotD]

Feels like it was longer ago than that but that's still a long time for special effects

While I'm kind of glad the de-aging thing became a topic, I did want to reiterate my for the whole Indiana Jones thing.  I was just trying to make some light humor.  However, I did see a story about the process, and that there is mention that many celebrities (who renamed nameless) do "digital facelifts" like this for films all the time, and that much of the time nobody even notices; small wrinkle removals here, zits airbrushed, the whole nine yards.  The big issue comes when people meet the celebrities in public and go, "Wow.  You look...um...did you ALWAYS have a giant mole, right there, in the middle of your eyeball?"

I had been drinking, so when I saw this scene, I thought Fandango had turned on Less Than Zero for some strange reason.
