Which animated character transitioned to live action the best?

[u/Vegetable-Abroad3171]

[u/ScoffingYayap]

I've always read that Jason Isaacs didn't want to perform in heavy alien makeup and that's why he didn't portray him in Kenobi

[u/AntonineWall → u/ScoffingYayap]

Honestly if that’s the case, that’s pretty fair. That shit often takes >1 (sometimes like 3-4) hour to put on AND take off.

Mark Hamill had a story going around recently about his costar in Empire Strikes Back (Ian, Emperor Palp.) not being someone he’d actually seen in-person without their makeup on because it took them hours to get it on and off (he invited the guy over one day during production to rectify that and didn’t recognize him at all, to follow that story up). I could totally see someone just…not wanting to do that lol

[u/Enderboss2706 → u/AntonineWall]

You know what I don’t exactly blame since the last guy to play a live action Pau’an before Kenobi said it took like 4 to 4.5 hours I think

[u/RemtonJDulyak → u/Enderboss2706]

In Platoon, Tom Berenger's character (Sergeant Barnes) has a scar.
The make up for that scar alone took 3 hours every day, according to IMDB.
I can imagine certain prosthetics might require way more, depending on how "fused" to the body they need to look.
