So glad you are enjoying the content! I try to give each video a sense of discovery, like we are unearthing some forgotten treasure! I love making these videos!
I don't know why this movie got so much flack. I thought it was a pretty good flick, and really enjoyed it when it came out. I still watch it from time to time. Your videos are really great as well. I subbed!
I never watched this movie until about 3 years ago, I thought it was so cool. Moved to Denver last year and just now realized that the shots were based on Denver. I walk right past the curved top building almost everyday
Hey that's cool Isaiah! Yeah, the film does not call a lot of attention to the fact that it's Denver they are swimming through, but once you notice it, it's definitely there!
I appreciate them using Denver but if that's the case then this scene takes place about 9000 feet underwater otherwise the Rockies would be clearly visible just 40 miles west as they stand at 14,000 feet. But movie magic and all that so it works haha.
I love your channel highlighting one of the most underrated dystopian films of the `90s and learning about the filming process is fascinating as an aspiring filmmaker myself!Thanks so much,my dude!:)
Fantastic video, like I said before, finding your channel and working through all your catalog of videos is great! Deep dives into niche subjects is literally the best part of this entire platform because of people like you!
Only just got round to checking this one out. Wow, I think it's a shame that more people don't appreciate the effort and creativity that went into the filming and set construction. I think it is so much better than they have done as much as they can without CGI also. I am a certified scuba diver with PADI but knew nothing about the astronaut facilities! and the city models by Stenson Visuals are stunning in detail.
Hey! That's really cool you a certified scuba diver! And I agree. The amount of planing and problem solving that went into creating old school special effects is astounding! Truly masterful artist. It so easy for modern film makes just to say "will fix it in post."
@@TheAtoll Thanks! This is one movie that deserved a sequel. I've wondered often what the Mariner is up to these days, whether or not Helen ended up pregnant with another ichthyosapien, or what other settlements the Mariner discovered on his journey. I expected there to be larger, city-sized floating settlements, not just atolls and barter outposts. Maybe Kevin Costner will reconsider making a new movie so we can find out.
@@TheAtoll The Universal Studios live-action show is fun. I got to see it back in 2012. I read an article where Kevin had considered a sequel at one time but has since abandoned the idea, claiming it was too late. I don't think so. I'd still like to see the Mariner return. Children of Leviathan was a great follow-up to the movie, but everything just stopped after that.
Yes, it would be very nice to catch up with the Mariner, even if in just comic book form. Waterworld has some great lore, and it is very ripe for being expanded on! By the way, Thank you for you subscription Elfrunner!
as i said in the other videos coments, i had no idea the city was denver, and i lived there as a kid at the time, and this was one of my favorite movies. But him swimming by chair lifts, dosnt make sense, all that stuff is about an hours drive, or more, away from Denver. No way youre casually swimming that distance.
Amazing video, well done! I have loved this movie since I was a young teenager when it came out, and I have recently watched the Ulysses Cut for the first time and fell in love all over again. Now I can't stop watching videos and reading thing about it, hah. I will definitely check out all of your other videos, thank you for putting so much effort into presenting these things to us!
Scenes like this had people talking and go deep (pun intended) about it because it was unprecedented. Today computers would take care of it. It's like a window in time where a particular kind of larger effort was put into certain scenes in certain movies, post primitive technology but also prior to profound computer power.
Totally! I love the compositing of blue screen live action and miniature backgrounds in this scene. Even though the perspective is slightly off in most shots, I find the overall effect more convincing then a full CGI shot.
@@TheAtoll I agree fully, I mean the gritty texture of a real life model makes such a better impression than a computer rendered one. CGI is too clean somehow. Also the underwater action shot pays off, there's tricks to fake it like strapping actors on wires and blow wind in their hair and slow the footage down etc but Costner needed to touch dirt underwater so not an option. And the perspective is excused because light is warped in water. It wasn't just to show off cinematic tech, it offered a sense of magic and mystery to the story. Maybe if a sequel was made (TV series I guess) and the people of the future manage to build a submarine to explore the old world underneath the surface, I can see the need for extensive computer animation.
I've wondered for a very long time they used for dirt under the ocean in that scene. You're the best dude I appreciate the work you put into this! In such great Lore.
@@TheAtoll something tells me something had failed to keep the sub in working condition and or eventually the reactor does fail and the crew, officers and captain do abandon it to start life as atollers once the scuttle charges sink their dying submarine.
Man, I have no idea. I think it came from a model builder's personal collection, but how amazing would it be if it was actually also used in that film as well!
Haha, oh boy. I am pretty sure Kevin Costner never wants to have anything to do with Waterworld again. I think his still pretty bitter towards this film.
@13:00 i see nothing wrong, in the idea that... the top of the tallest building in Denver reach 100feet to the surface of the ocean... in fact, from what i know of geology... there is no reason that the crust plates, could not have moved higher or lower in relation to the surface.. this could have affected other location on earth. some may have become Mariana Trench, so to speak.
Just throwing it out there. If Denver is at 1.6 km elevation and the end of the movie reveals only the tip of Everest remains Dryland, that would suggest there's some 6 km of water above the mariner. How is he not crushed by the pressure?
haha, yeah, there are lots of inconsistencies in water level depths in Waterworld. I think I might talk about it in more depth in the Great Deluge video, but regardless, yes, the Mariner would pop at these pressures. Is there an ability that deep sea creatures have evolved so that they can withstand these crazy pressures?
@@TheAtoll Considering the creatures that survive at those depths, but I doubt their evolved bodies would survive low pressure shallow water. Danger goes both ways.
I just have to say, love the content.... but, can we do something about your whistling S's? I listen with head phones and it's actually painful.... The whistle is killing my ears. Just a thought. Maybe one of the foam microphone covers or something? But definitely keep up the excellent work. 👌

Or why does he even own one, he can breath underwater!? Haha, I recall in the book it describing him and Helen building the Diving Bell together from materials on the Trimaran.
@@TheMrPeteChannel or perhaps it was meant to be a bouyancy system for hauling up salvage from deeper sites like the city, and its use as a diving bell was a secondary thing?
@@glitterboy2098this was essentially my thought as well, the diving bell is basically a Salvage basket, meant to hoist whatever the Mariner finds of value back up to his boat. It being transparent and able to be used as a Diving bell is just a coincidence.
I might be crazy but…. When he shoots that parachute thing in the air allowing them to go faster, I could swear I saw a face bottom left on the parachute. Just as it opens, around 1:04 on the video. Maybe a cgi inside joke or perhaps the first part of my comment…the crazy part lol

Yes, for sure. I lot of Waterworld's charm comes from all the effort put into those practical effect, sets, and costumes. They don't make them like they use too!

Haha, it makes no scenes. But sometime you got to look beyond these inaccuracies. Though, I would like to do a video on the great flood, because I think there maybe an in-universe explanation for where all this extra water came from!
Yeah, It would have definitely given us more recognizable landmarks. I'm trying to recall, has there ever been a movie that depicts New York submerged by water?
Yeah for sure! There seems to be a lot of logistics involved that aren't apparent until you start think about it, like the fact that no one can verbally communicate underwater.
@The Atoll I'm not saying the trimaran wasn't badass but think about it. The guy had access to what ever he wanted. Sure he is limited by his knowledge and experience so perhaps in his shoes I wouldn't have anything better but the ability to gather gather both soul and building materials has endless possibilities. As an example a man made an acre sized island by tying plastic bottles together. He could have started or enhanced atoll life to an extent that floating farms would be everywhere like the ancient Aztecs.
@@TheAtoll maybe by that time people are evolving enough to not be hurt by it and just some people are evolving faster like with gills. I wonder if there's anything that talks about that in the books? Like maybe there's a special gas in there like the stuff they use in the air balloon.
If you look closely at some of the models it appears that there apears to be shelters and even a rope bridge. Possibly one of the last holdouts of humanity on solid structures while the waters rose.
Aww, very observant! I had never noticed that!
Seeing that makes me wonder if those were the same people that were eventually evacuated to the Exxon.
It really did make sense that the underwater city was Denver (a mile above sea level) and that dry land was Mt. Everest. This film is underrated.
I know, great world building!
Impressive how much effort was put into such a brief scene. Seeing that the city was actually based on a real one also surprised me!
Yeah, it's really amazing to see how much time and craftsmanship went into making a sequence that is only about a dozen shots in all!

Wouldn't the nuclear-powered submarine still be radioactive? And why was it abandoned in the first place or how did it end up there.

@@TheAtoll something tells me something had failed to keep the sub in working condition and or eventually the reactor does fail and the crew, officers and captain do abandon it to start life as atollers once the scuttle charges sink their dying submarine.
