    Now I understand some of the effects behind one of my favorite DVDs.

    I’ve met the gentleman that bought and restored the chair after its use on the film.
    Before his passing he would cosplay as Loveless and attend cons in that chair.
    It was a gorgeous piece to see in person.

    The plastic hammer with the steel shot inside is called a "Dead blow hammer" .We used it in machining to make sure part was seated in the vise.

    Makes me want to watch the movie again, just to see the effects!

      Indeed! Even if the movie isn't that great (I love it tho) we got to admit the effects were amazing! That giant spider blow me away when I was a kid.

    The town that burned down was on a film ranch in New Mexico south of Santa Fe. About two thirds of it had gone up. This is the same place they used for the First Thor movie, they paved the main street and put modern facades made of foam on the buildings. If you look in some scenes on the side streets you can see they are dirt.

    I got a massive laugh hearing Lorne throw Wild Wild West under the bus within the first 10 seconds of the video, haha!

      I always watch most movies in seperate parts. Even the worst movies can have moments that inspire. SFX and sound being great examples. But, you can't fix a bad script, directors and... actors. #MyBad

    The actual film clips using the special effects they described would have added a lot to this video.

      If you have the cash to pay for the licensing fees... I don't want to be sued by the studios.

    Seeing Kevin Kline in drag made me feel funny. This movie is worth watching for the unique production design and special effects alone.

    The film really isn't that bad, with a little more work it could have been great. The special effects are really good.

    The weighted rocks is a good idea. Shame it was completely hidden under the pyro smoke.

    I love your videos, but can you leave the pictures on screen for more time? I have to stop the video to admire them, let people talk over them. Thanks.

  • @blenderpanzi
    @blenderpanzi 3 роки тому +1

    I don't think you can't even see the rocks landing on the ground in the movie. Such a shame. :(

    I found this movie entertaining, it’s not as bad as people say. Certainly not one you’ll watch again and again, but worth at least one view.

    Wasted his time making the rocks not bounce, the movie doesnt show them hit the ground

    • @piercefilm
      @piercefilm  3 роки тому +4

      When you work on movie effects you have to be as realistic as possible. You don't know what the director or editor will use later. Much of the time all of your work ends up on the cutting room floor. But you've been paid!
