    I dont know how to describe this, but it feels like every single person in your office fits in perfectly. It doesnt matter who is on screen, everytime they go off, I'll be like "Dang I wish this person was on here more".. Sam and Niko, I hope you are very proud of the team you've put together over these years!

      I agree, but remember they are playing characters on screen. Themselves, but outsized.

      (Enough people have moved on from Corridor, however, that if there were issues we'd probably have heard about it by now.)

    Hi, I'm a muppet performer (I play Dr. Teeth’s dad Gerald Teeth Sr.) and NY Henson shop builder. Marionette puppeteers performed Kermit’s and Piggy’s bikes. The bikes and puppets were rigged to a controller connected to a crane. The wide of all the bikes was done by connecting all the bikes. You can see the connections if you look closely enough. We still do a lot of practical puppetry FX in our films and TV shows. However, since everyone expects there to be CG, it gets looked over as a digital effect.
    A great example is the show Donkey Hodie. In it, a puppet juggles. There is no VFX. All practical and in camera. I started my professional career as a VFX artist, so I can say that in TV/Film puppetry, the same saying exists. If you didn't see the effect, then we have done our job right.

    You guys should make a video where you do "VFX" shots, without CGI. The 45 degree mirror, forced perspective, etcc etcc. Not just to see it in action, but to see what goes into it and how easy, or difficult, it actually is.
    Edit: my brain suffered a minor case of sudden flatulence and i wrote VFX instead of CGI. It has now been corrected.

    You might have mentioned that the reflective glass technique was known as the Schüftan process. One of of the earliest, in-camera compositing techniques in Cinema history. It actually had its roots in the world of stage magic (as did many other early effects). Georges Méliès, known as the Cinemagician, started out as a stage magician and brought a lot of his illusions to his films.
    Metropolis still stands as one of the most astounding works of cinema ever.

      Thank you for mentioning the Schüftan process. While watching the video I was thinking that they should've at least acknowledged the process name of the, for its time, incredibly Innovative technique. You would think the guys, especially Niko who is very thorough and knowledgeable, at the Crew would have done some extra credit research and mentioned it.

      "A Trip to the Moon" by Georges Méliès from 1902 is widely considered the official real first sci-fi movie. I don't really understand why they claimed it's Metropolis. If the movies were close together in age, I would not make much difference, but Trip to the Moon is 25 years older!

      Remember how people talked about the Star Wars prequels like they were the worst movies ever made, when really, come on, they weren't THAT bad? The Clone Wars actually IS that bad.
      - Film critic, Eric D. Snider[49]
      Entertainment Weekly listed Star Wars: The Clone Wars as one of the five worst films of 2008[39] with critic Owen Gleiberman saying,
      It's hard to tell the droids from the Jedi drones in this robotic animated dud, in which the George Lucas Empire Strikes Back-at the audience. What wears you out is Lucas' immersion in a Star Wars cosmology that has grown so obsessive-compulsively cluttered yet trivial that it's no longer escapism; Because this movie has bad lightsaber duels and the lack of the original cast, it's something you want to escape from.[39]

      Star Wars Clone Wars film The only Star Wars Razzie
      On Rotten Tomatoes, the film has an approval rating of 19% based on 172 reviews, with an average rating of 4.2/10. The site's critical consensus reads: "Mechanical animation and a less-than stellar script make The Clone Wars a pale shadow of George Lucas' once great franchise."[35] This constituted the lowest Rotten Tomatoes rating of any Star Wars film; all nine theatrical films ranged from 51% to 95% and the made-for-television Ewok films and the Star Wars Holiday Special garnered higher ratings, although their averages encompassed far fewer reviews.[36]

      That's physically accurate in theory. The energy needed to move the car is way more than that needed to move a human body, so it's entirely possible for enough energy to be transferred to make the body move faster than the car. Like when a bowling ball hits the pins.

      @@TheAshenvictor It is mostly the spin that makes that happen. The surface of the bowling ball has a speed on top of the speed of the ball itself, and the pins are accelerated to that combined speed. The first spectator who is thrown up by the car looks wrong because the car is spinning the wrong way for him to shoot upwards.

    Not only does it have a great blend of practical and cg elements, it was also the very first attempt to show dinosaurs as living animals in a documentary rather than as movie monsters. Plus if you can catch them, there are definitely a few shots where the dinosaur models clip through themselves. 😂

      I mean it has the tension of the wires as well, you can definitely see it getting dislodged. It wasn't a head on impact with it so it's very probable that it would have ricocheted like that, someone mentioned higher up in the comments that the scene was based on a real crash.

    • @rome8180
      @rome8180 25 днів тому +8

      I can certainly believe it bounced off the pole. What I can't believe is that it was that high up on the pole or that it would bounce that far off of it.

    • @cr8xtremeCaRnAgE
      @cr8xtremeCaRnAgE 25 днів тому +3

      I would have agreed to the point of poles being as trees, but the strength of the pole would be highest at the base as it has earth for stability and the poles become weaker in strength at the tip where wires are.
      The wires that are attached are just attached with bolts and not soldered or wrapped around the pole for grip and provide elasticity
      The car - Ferrari 335 s is about 880 kg curb weight. Not being a scientist here but I definitely believe the car weight + the added momentum with explosion could have easily overcome the structural integrity of that point of crash on pole breaking it down.
      I mean I am also speculating this based on the movie shot(which seems to be exaggerated from what I read in other media)
      May be the Corridor Crew guys can work out the mathematics and physics using their simulator 🤩
