    As a 7'0" former actor who would occasionally double for similarly sized athletes or celebrities and did his fair share of creature and sfx work, Martin must have had the patience of a saint to wear that much hot, itchy, uncomfortable gear up to 14 hours a day for 10 years. It helps knowing you're part of something special but I hope the pay was worth it, too. In any case, thanks for giving one of us a little spotlight and praise.

    What I find fascinating with stories like these, the practical solutions with small touch to hide the imperfections usually hold up longer or pass completely under the radar for most people.
    Till just now I had no idea they used a body double and assumed it was all forced perspective.
    The other example is the Thing (1982) and the Thing (2011). The ‘11 is like vapourware, whereas ‘82 is a classic.
    I think there is a warmth to practical effects that make them more believable, a ‘lived in ness’

    • @Keyecomposer
      @Keyecomposer Місяць тому +5

      I actually still really enjoy The Thing (2011) I think despite the fact that the practical effects made for it was CG'ed over is unfortunate but i think its still a very faithful prequel, i love watch it and '82' back to back.

    • @seigeengine
      @seigeengine Місяць тому +23

      There's definitely a certain reality to practical effects that is much harder to emulate with CGI. Real physical things behave as you'd expect in complex ways, whereas CGI only does the same with a bunch of work. That said, practical effects can also go this way, like the empty beverage cup that's been a meme.
      Ultimately, both are useful, and can do things the other struggles with.

    • @Nthsey

      Oh, here we go again-the worship of a guy for doing his job. Let’s not pretend this was some grueling, superhuman feat. He wore a costume. Sure, it might have been hot or itchy, but guess what? People do physically taxing jobs every day without basking in internet adoration. Construction workers bake under the sun for hours, miners crawl through literal dirt and darkness, and nurses are on their feet for endless shifts dealing with much more than an itchy suit. But yeah, let’s give this guy a parade for being "patient."
      And the "part of something special" angle? Spare me. Hollywood's "special" is just another way of saying "big money machine." As for the pay-if it wasn’t worth it, he could’ve walked off set and saved his martyr routine for something meaningful. Thanks for the "spotlight and praise," but maybe let’s reserve admiration for people doing actual hard work that doesn’t involve catering to Hollywood's bloated ego.

    8:05 I was waiting eagerly to see something of the sort. As someone experienced with fullbody suiting, head covered etc, but with far, far less extra costume layers ontop, it already gets unbearably hot as you breath your own warm air inside. Drinking cold water via a tube or straw becomes a necessity. I'm also all too familiar with the reduction in vision and hearing that comes along. All of this filming under a heavy suit with animatronic parts must have required immense effort and commitment from Martin. They are often overlooked actors like those inside the costumes of C-3PO or Chewie, sadly, but have my upmost respect.

    RIP Robbie. That was a great video! Did Mr. Bayfield get credits for all the movies? I loved Robbie in many movies, from Potter, to GoldenEye, to even a little film called Krull. But From movie one he brought heart and fun to the Potter movies. Now Robbie lives forever both in the movies and with a great ride at Universal.
