"Remember this one cool scene where you have a closeup of the protagonist from this cool movie? Guess what, there was already another closeup scene in a different movie!!!" - That's how this whole video sounds like.
The closing scenes fr Blade runner used footage Kubrick shot but decided NOT to use in The Shining. It's even mentioned in the making of documentary Dangerous Days. Ridley contacted Kubrick and Kubrick sent all the unused film of the landscapes to Scott overnight. Was something like a dozen reels of footage if I remember.
Ridley never wanted those outdoor shots. The movie's supposed to end with the elevator doors closing and does end that way in the "Director's" and "Final" cuts of the film. So I think it was less about being out of money and more about not wanting to film the shots to begin with.
What about the protagonist calmly walking away from an explosion they created (with the explosion behind them)? That has been ripped off several times. Which film originally displayed that idea?
My day thus far, lost my bank card, can't withdraw nor go grocery shopping, I am friggin starving, got stung by a hornet on my forehead, skin on my palm got scraped off, now I can't hold on to anything, hit my head on a wooden cupboard and got a mild concussion.......a really good moment better come soon, cuz fuck my life.
I'm just surprised that it didn't get to the Untouchables scene and have the narrator say: "Brian DePalma: ... Pretty much everything he's ever done was ripped off of somebody, whether it's Hitchcock, Eisenstein, or Antonioni. Have a good day."
Silent Running 1972, Star Wars. 1- The camera shot pulls back slowly to show the scale of the ship the Valley Forge. Star Wars opening scene the camera slowly pulls back to reveal the scale of the star destroyer. 2-Freeman Lowel wears a monks robe to reveal himself to be a good guy, like saint Francis. Star Wars Kenobi wears a monks robe to show that he is a good guy. 3-Huey(robot) makes repairs on the outside of a space ship. R2D2 makes repairs on Luke Skywalkers spaceship. 4-Both movies end with a bang as the Valley Forge is blown up at the endof the film. So is the death star blown up. 5-Huey(robot) R2D2 both robots can't speak, but can make noises to communicate.
1) The scene Boogie Nights “copied” from Goodfellas was “copied” from the Soviet film I Am Cuba. 2) The Baby on the staircase sequence that “might” have been copied by Brian de Palma was *certainly* an homage to the Odessa Steps sequence in Battleship Potemkin. Which is *definitely* the more iconic scene. Thank you.
You're saying the lord of the rings scene is "stolen" from the wizzard of ozz? If I wrote a movie with a serial killer in it, am I stealing from every other movie with a serial killer in it? Recognizing someone in front of a car? are you serious? Thats stealing a scene?
Orion Red this is really good info. Arronowski bought the rights from some scenes of the Perfect Blue Anime in order to be used for Requiem for a Dream and the he copied the whole scenario made few changes and created Black Swan....he still denies copying the scenario..but truth is..he did. Perfect Blue is also a Japanese film.
We covered The Hidden Fortress for two weeks in a film studies class. Speeder/X-wing battle? Yep. Big Bad Guy changes sides last minute? Yep. Royalty disguised as peasant? Yep. Tall slender peasant and short fat peasant? Yep. Are they quarreling constantly? Yep. Is the tall peasant obsessed with gold? Yep. Is there a hidden treasure/secret weapon that can turn the tide of the war? Yep. Old wise-guy who is loyal to the Royal Person? Yep. George likes this old film, so no doubt he borrowed.
Intertextuality is what they are called. The X wing fighters scene going through the trenches of the Dead Star was also taken from a WW2 movie called The Damn Busters.
Don't forget the swordfight between Uma Thurman and Lucy Liu,which is a 1:1 copy of the movie ''Lady Snowblood'' or the death scene of Candy,in ''Django Unchained'',which is ripped off from ''2 Companeros'',by Sergio Corbucci or basically the entire plot of ''Reservoir Dogs'',which is ''stolen'' from ''City on Fire'',by Ringo Lam.Also,the winter scenery in ''The Hateful 8'',is ''inspired'' by Corbucci's ''Il Grande Silencio''.
It suddenly occurs to me that that scene from LOTR also slightly resembles the scene from Butch Casidy and The Sundance Kid too. The one just before they jum off the top of the waterfall, you know.
In Captain America: The Winter Soldier, the Russos took inspiration from the scene in Star Wars when Han Solo is getting tortured, and they put it in the movie when Bucky Barnes is remembering and also getting tortured. The thing they added to it was taking off Bucky's shirt.
undoubtedly, it has been pointed out, but The Two Towers (movie) is based on The Two Towers book which is part of a series created by J.R.R. Tolkien in the 1930's as a childhood bed time story. The series (excluding The Hobbit which was published in 1937) was published between 1954 and 1955.
I have watched The Wizard of Oz and all 3 LOTR movies more times than I can count. I can't believe I never noticed it before, but before the narrator mentioned Wizard of Oz I could totally see it. I don't know how or why I never noticed it lol
The end fight of X-Men origins of the Wolverine ripping off Star Wars The Phantom Menace end scene Both sequences start out with a group of people trying to get somewhere stopped by a powerful villain with two blades that have to fight two main characters Both villains get cut in half and fall down a hole
Return of the Jedi copies a sequence from a Star Wars ripoff film called Message From Space. The scene is where Lando on the falcon leads the group of rebel A-wings to destroy the death stars' core. In message from space two ships fly into a hatch of a capital ship without any forethought and maneuver through corridors and evading enemy ships from behind then reaching the main core and destroy it.
It's impossible to make a "good" movie without taking inspirations from older "classics" I myself dont mind this because it makes a good movie but there's a huge difference between "stolen" - "inspired"
Oftentimes, a director "steals" something from another film as intentional symbolism - like copying a shot to purposely call attention to the idea that the characters in that shot have similar character traits. Paul Thomas Andersone will tell you that he has zero problems copying from other films. He's the type that wouldn't mind saying to the face of the director he copied from that he did so - not to be a jerk but because he genuinely does it as an homage. But you'd be hard-pressed to find anyone that'll claim that Paul Thomas Anderson's aren't original; it's not what you do but what you do with it...
I always wondered why she didn't just stab him in the face or neck when he stuck his head through the door to say "Here's Johnny". He was completely vulnerable.
The clips from the old films aren't long enough to compare to the scenes from the new films. I don't understand why in your UA-cam video you would show an entire scene from the newer movie, and sometimes only show a single frame from the older film. I can't appreciate the similarity between the two films unless more of the old film is shown. This could be done without lengthening the overall length of the UA-cam by showing more side-by-side comparisons. For example, from 0:41 to 1:01 you could have had visuals from triumph of the will and start wars playing side by side instead of Star Wars only. Showing clips from really old films is relatively less likely to spark copyright problems than showing clips from newer films, and you were perfectly happy to show clips from newer films, so, I don't think avoiding copyright infringement was the issue.
Nice ...when I saw Reservoir Dogs with their colour names it reminded me of a movie called Day of the Wolves where all the Bad Guys where known to each other by numbers only so that they couldn't squeal on each other if caught . And if you don't know the movie they were robing an entire town !
you forgot the hidden fortress , and several starwars scenes. horse chase (the hidden fortress) and speederbike chade (return of the Jedi ) most notably
Big difference between "inspiration" and "stolen".
seems like screen rant has been running out of ideas or just getting lazier
The comment seson has changed
ɷ I Haveeee Watchedddd Thisss Movieeee Leakedd Versionnnn Here : - t.co/e6QlTccFx6
That avatar of yours is too cute.
It really should be a crime
I know
Obviously Screen Rant doesn't fully understand the meaning of the word STOLEN.
true!
They also don't know how to pronounce "Potemkin".
Hardly anyone outside Russia does.
Amazing movie scenes that vaguely resemble other movie scenes.
the 3 one was only similar by a car stopping at a traffic light lol.
I'm not even sure you can make a unique movie anymore, since every little thing will be investigated
i dont agree with the rebel nazi thing, that's just how i would see a ceremony be
Actually that one is true, but it wasn't "stolen" as Screen Rant claims
thunmbnail and end of civil war are alike too
You just don't want to believe that you've been a Nazi lover all along!!

I don't believe that 'The Untouchables' carriage scene is more iconic than Battleship Potemkin.
More like the other way round.
Yeah, it's possibly Sergei Einstein's best movie
i think you mean inspired by
"Hi Stanley, it's Ridley...I'm outta time and money, so was wondering if I could use...." YEP - STOLEN. :/
Ridley never wanted those outdoor shots. The movie's supposed to end with the elevator doors closing and does end that way in the "Director's" and "Final" cuts of the film. So I think it was less about being out of money and more about not wanting to film the shots to begin with.
That's a serious stretch for the Star Wars one
Characters hiding behind a rock? RIPOFF!!!
The framing is almost identical, man.
More the camera angles and positioning
@@ryanmoore6259 haha, I'm sure you're right. I don't even remember this video
I ate breakfast this morning, I guess I stole that from breakfast at Tiffany's
THE MOVIE TITANIC STOLE FROM THE REAL TITANIC!!
There is a stark difference between "stolen," "inspired by," and "paying homage to."
What about the protagonist calmly walking away from an explosion they created (with the explosion behind them)? That has been ripped off several times. Which film originally displayed that idea?
that's because cool guys don't look at explosions!
#2 is wrong! It was there in the book, described with eerie detail. Peter Jackson followed the text... So how is that stolen?
5:30, you pronounced 'potemkin' fantastically wrong! Hahaha
You forgot one... about 90% of Force Awakens was ripped off from the original
Hope you feel good today and if not I hope you will soon ❤️
Didn't expect that, thanks, I'm sick asf
Thanks Its Just Jet Lag
thanks, I am feeling better...
My day thus far, lost my bank card, can't withdraw nor go grocery shopping, I am friggin starving, got stung by a hornet on my forehead, skin on my palm got scraped off, now I can't hold on to anything, hit my head on a wooden cupboard and got a mild concussion.......a really good moment better come soon, cuz fuck my life.
when i saw the untouchables, i was thinking at the time - 'have i seen this scene b4?'
nice homage, de Palma. both were great movies.
Look up the word 'homage' and then rethink your career.
Great video
Um Tolkein wrote the scene of the hobbits over looking the area and army walking into Mordor quite some time before Wizard of Oz was made
so he wrote that scene. that very scene in the two years between him starting the books(1937) and the year Wizard of oz was released (1939)
Bruh, do you even know how time works?
heroes looking over a hill top to see the bad guys has been in books and lore forever. Its not a 1930's original.
at least parts of the lord of the rings Tolkien says he came up with during his time in the trenches...fighting a war..
Totally disagree with the baby carriage scene in The Untouchables, Battleship Potemkin is one of the most iconic movies of all time..
Type "star wars minus williams" into the search...you will NOT be sorry ;)
I am not sorry.
Thank you for that. I nearly spewed my green tea all over my computer.... it was worth it.
Haha that was cringy
Thank you very much for that lmao.
Dude, thanks.
Transformers Dark of the Moon and The Island - chase scene
whom did he steal it from exactly?
Michael Bay stole it from himself lmao
he didnt steal, he re-used it... coz a stunt man died or something, he didnt want to re-shoot.!
Have you heard of something called homages?
I have to admit that this one was pretty interesting.

I'm just surprised that it didn't get to the Untouchables scene and have the narrator say:
"Brian DePalma: ... Pretty much everything he's ever done was ripped off of somebody, whether it's Hitchcock, Eisenstein, or Antonioni. Have a good day."
Geez... you really mascaraed the name PO-TEM-KIN.

Thank you.
It is not stealing… it is "quoting". Big difference. It is conscious and it is appreciative of the original.
You're saying the lord of the rings scene is "stolen" from the wizzard of ozz? If I wrote a movie with a serial killer in it, am I stealing from every other movie with a serial killer in it?
Recognizing someone in front of a car? are you serious? Thats stealing a scene?
here is johnny : was improvised!
0:40 the world war 2 is not a movie screenrant
"Triumph of Will" is a famous Nazi propaganda film by Leni Riefenstahl and not war footage. So, Screen Rant was correct.
how can they ignore all the stolen scenes from Akira Kurosawa's films...and where is Arronowski stolen scenes
Good question! Maybe since most of those were practically remakes?
Orion Red true, maybe that's the case, but Tarantino has used a lot of Kurosawa references...Arronowski still denies stealing scenes from Anime.
Orion Red this is really good info.
Arronowski bought the rights from some scenes of the Perfect Blue Anime in order to be used for Requiem for a Dream and the he copied the whole scenario made few changes and created Black Swan....he still denies copying the scenario..but truth is..he did. Perfect Blue is also a Japanese film.
Erisa Desu
Which Black Swan?
Orion Red the film with Natalie Portman and Milla kunis and Winona Ryder
I like how the narrator completely ignore the fact that Uma Thurman is wearing an homage to the iconic outfit Bruce Lee wore in his very last film.
The lord of the rings scene is from the book, not from the wizard of oz. The scene set up is similar but not necessarily taken from it.
It's doubtful that Jackson stole the scene from the wizard of oz. they may be similar but not necessarily purposefully done.
Star Wars is way more than just the ending. It's basically a space opera version of The Hidden Fortress.
We covered The Hidden Fortress for two weeks in a film studies class.
Speeder/X-wing battle? Yep.
Big Bad Guy changes sides last minute? Yep.
Royalty disguised as peasant? Yep.
Tall slender peasant and short fat peasant? Yep.
Are they quarreling constantly? Yep.
Is the tall peasant obsessed with gold? Yep.
Is there a hidden treasure/secret weapon that can turn the tide of the war? Yep.
Old wise-guy who is loyal to the Royal Person? Yep.
George likes this old film, so no doubt he borrowed.
there are many more films that star wars was inspired by... however, I will say that the death star assault all but plagiarised dam busters...
Heck the space battle is based off "The Dam Busters" and "633 Squadron", the former a true story and the latter fictionally based on many.
the trench run and battle is pretty much shot for shot Mosquito Squadron there's a video on UA-cam where they've switched audio.
soddof And the dialog and target from The Dam Busters.
Glad "Battleship Potemkin" got its due.
Ironic screen rant is talking bout stealing
Intertextuality is what they are called. The X wing fighters scene going through the trenches of the Dead Star was also taken from a WW2 movie called The Damn Busters.
You can't say "stolen" and then say he got the directors permission to use the footage...
im sorry, but some of these are just scenes that are similar. 'stolen' is a fucking stretch.
I think that was the point. Done on purpose.
Don't forget the swordfight between Uma Thurman and Lucy Liu,which is a 1:1 copy of the movie ''Lady Snowblood'' or the death scene of Candy,in ''Django Unchained'',which is ripped off from ''2 Companeros'',by Sergio Corbucci or basically the entire plot of ''Reservoir Dogs'',which is ''stolen'' from ''City on Fire'',by Ringo Lam.Also,the winter scenery in ''The Hateful 8'',is ''inspired'' by Corbucci's ''Il Grande Silencio''.

finally... a good video
You're really grasping at straw with this one. I switched off after 2 mins.
I think that the Bruce Lee fight scene after which the "Kill Bill" scene was modeled was actually in "The Chinese Connection", not "Fists of Fury".
Three words - clutching at straws.
Min 5:50 Nope is more likely the Game of Death from Bruce Lee
The suit she is wearing is a homage to his character in that movie but you already know that probably lol
+Vincent J. Newman yeap :P
I don't think you pronounced a single word right the entire video...
In Captain America: The Winter Soldier, the Russos took inspiration from the scene in Star Wars when Han Solo is getting tortured, and they put it in the movie when Bucky Barnes is remembering and also getting tortured. The thing they added to it was taking off Bucky's shirt.
It's cool how you described homages as "stolen" so you'd get more clicks.

They say "Stolen" to get more views.
And use an image from a movie not on their list.
Anyone know the song @ 5:30?
I came to see Darth maul 😠
lol. me to!
how is darth maui stolen?
ive wasted 7 mins of my life :[
The yellow with black stripe suit that the bride wore in kill bill could pay homage to Bruce Lee as he wore that colour scheme in Enter the Dragon....
A person in a car sees someone in the crosswalk, Obviously stolen not at all a common occurrence.
Did it occur to you that whoever made Oz was a fan of Tolkein?
sorry dude Wizard of Oz was written in 1900. and screened in 1939. Lord of the rings published 1954.
The Force Awakens> Return of the Jedi. I don't care, you're not going to change my mind
did you know ninja's never existed before Naruto?
Wait, what? The Untouchables baby carriage scene is now more iconic than the Odessa Steps scene in Potemkin? Are you serious?
The end fight of X-Men origins of the Wolverine ripping off Star Wars The Phantom Menace end scene
Both sequences start out with a group of people trying to get somewhere stopped by a powerful villain with two blades that have to fight two main characters
Both villains get cut in half and fall down a hole
The scene from The Untouchables more iconic than the scene from Potemkin? Think again, folks!
ty for using the e.t. since with the guns instead of the walkie talkies.
"Stolen" is a bit harsh no? Definition of stolen (steal): to take (something that does not belong to you) in a way that is wrong or illegal
I wouldn't say stolen. I would say that they pay homage to those scenes. It's like a music group paying homage by playing a cover of a song.
Return of the Jedi copies a sequence from a Star Wars ripoff film called Message From Space. The scene is where Lando on the falcon leads the group of rebel A-wings to destroy the death stars' core.

HI
i want seven minutes of my life back.
Some are coincidences and some are omage.
I didn't know that Kill Bill Vol. 1 came out in the future!
That end scene of Star Wars IV was taken from the Hidden Fortress, where much of the plot line was also taken
I always wondered why she didn't just stab him in the face or neck when he stuck his head through the door to say "Here's Johnny". He was completely vulnerable.
because they were husband and wife. what the hell happened between your parents when you were a kid?
Meh...They were separated.By a door. Which he was chopping through with an axe. I think it's safe to say the honeymoon was over.

My guess is that the old films haven't been transferred to video that can be pulled easily from the web.
Mmmmm....very tenuous......coincidence at best. Poor video.
The whole Kill Bill movie is nearly copied from old movies.
That's funny because screen rant steals content all the time 😐
yeah 😒
Nice ...when I saw Reservoir Dogs with their colour names it reminded me of a movie called Day of the Wolves where all the Bad Guys where known to each other by numbers only so that they couldn't squeal on each other if caught . And if you don't know the movie they were robing an entire town !
the color names were used before in the 1974 classic Taking of Pelham 123
The Hitman movie. It actually used scenes from Dark Angel, the TV show with Jessica Alba
Rofl even with a video not having the prequels in it u have to hate on them, wtf.
Potemkin is pronounced Po TEM kin. Not PO tem kin.
Actually it's pronounced Po-tyom-kin.
"kung fu hustle"; the asylum scene to "the shining "
forgot to mention how the dance scene in pulp fiction was copied from the scene in 8 1/2
Jet Li's 1994 "Fist of Legend" has a fight scene that is scary close to the training dojo scene in "The Matrix". Both choreographed by Woo Ping.
Re: two towers - apart from that's pretty much exactly how the book describes events.
4:40
Jeremy Clarkson from Top Gear UK??

you forgot the hidden fortress , and several starwars scenes.
horse chase (the hidden fortress) and speederbike chade (return of the Jedi ) most notably
i liked the part with the darth maul lightsaber fight in this video
pause at 5:31 is that intentionally? wtf?! like seriously?!? 😂
Peter Jackson coming up with LOTR? Ok Screen Rant, ok...
