    As a Ultraman fan, Bin Furuya still performs in suit in stage shows, he's never actually retired

    @joosterrr Місяць тому +250

    Apparently, the oranges slices are because whenever he goes "Big" and reverts back, the Vitamin C is suppose to make the "fatigue" or "dizziness" better.

      And he was also super weak because his body had burned thru the glucose super fast

    Your montages are the coolest and most unique parts of your video other than the in-depth detail into cinematography. This one especially was pretty funny.

    The Orange slices is in reference to what kids eat at soccer games. If marvel was unable to get spiderman for this movie, the scene of tony and Peter would have been replaced with caps team kidnapping scott during his daughters Soccer game.

    Huge shout out to The Iron Giant. Very little VFX but it's my favorite Giant of all time.

    • @AFishInPajamas
      @AFishInPajamas Місяць тому +3

      It's the fact that he's animated as a 3D model yet seamlessly incorporated into a 2D environment and made to look 2D himself, as well as animated so smoothly during an era when 3D animation was still quite new that makes him such an animation marvel.
      Also heh, *huge* shout out.

    Really solid video.
    I was hoping to see the Lincoln memorial statue when it comes to life in Night at the Museum: The Battle of the Smithsonian. Also the first Night at the Museum has a bit of an homage to Gullivers Travels, with Ben Stiller getting tied down by Jedidiah (Owen Wilson) who's one of the miniatures.

    The orange slices bit was because as Giant Man, Scott's body burned fuel exponentially fast. So he became super weak and needed food, like orange slices. It could've been any food but I guess he was trying to eat healthy.

    Hank Pym mentions orange slices help the trip back to normal size (if i remember correctly) which is why Scott says that in Civil War. In Endgame he is also seen with orange slices, I believe after Hawkeye gets back from testing the quantum realm traveling device. Even in Ant-Man: Quantamania after Stature (his daughter) shrinks after going large for the first time, exclaims "and I'm really cravint citrus!" Its just a running gag with him in the MCU

    @brevin630 Місяць тому +2

    Just want to clarify something, Bin Furuya, while he was the original suit actor for Ultraman, and does still sometimes perform as him in suit, he is NOT the current man inside of most modern Ultra suits. You also worded the video kind of weirdly when it came to Ultraman's history. It's not like Iron Man changing his suit every movie, but rather, each Ultraman is their own, separate being and character. It's like how not every Power Ranger is Mighty Morphin, or how not every Kamen Rider is one guy
