My Dad had this on VHS and I loved watching it every so often...that special effects team deserved the Academy Award, I'm glad to hear they won. Joe Dante created some wonderful quirky movies, thanks for sharing this!
Great job interviewing Mr. Dante! That man honestly influenced and shaped much of my childhood wonder. You are very fortunate to have had this opportunity.
@JoeDante
Thank you Joe!
Amazing special effects wish they would put a 'making of' featurette on bluray or something
I LOVE this movie. Why isn't Joe directing movies of this quality today? Get in touch with Amblin, Joe. Pitch ideas back and forth. Let's do it!
Directors also have agents. It’s rare for a director to get hand picked by a producer or studio. And you see that producers these days, demand “young fresh, filmmakers with knowledge of CGI and who can and will rush productions”. Old directors like Joe and Spielberg, know that a film is only as good as it’s production time. They want to be working with the actors and try out ideas and rehearse.
That’s frowned upon these days, because it takes time. Where principal photography lasted 4-6 months in the 80s. It’s now 6-12 weeks. The agents know that these men, would not want or could do those schedules - which frankly are insane! That’s why movies these days feel flat.
@@CallousCoder You nailed it ! principal photography used to last from months to a year. It is down to 5-6 weeks. That is the primary reason movies today look like bad TV episodes…even when hundreds of millions have been spent on them during post-production l. That is the reason I stopped going to the movies. I used to love going to the movies !
@@gokhanersan8561 and post production also is reduced to 3 to 4 months. That’s the reason why I don’t work in VFX anymore. And before that I did SFX, you don’t even have time anymore to create a nice gag. And so every movie looks the same and I agree with you. I too hardly ever go to a movie.
@@CallousCoder I hear you, man.
He’s been working on a movie about Roger Corman.
Great interview and a great insight on pre-CGI special visual effects. Oscar well deserved!
I'm not even a third of the way in and I love this interview! The special effects in this film, even by today's standards are absolutely top notch. CGI, even today, lacks that feeling of looking or seeming real. The way they portrayed cells, to the heart valve, the stomach, etc. were just phenomenal.
Legendary director
Amazing director!
Would of been better if there were full screen shots of the what was on the laptop as you just can't see it
I so wanted to see this movie in theaters! As a fan of Gremlins and Explorers I read every article in Starlog magazine about it. I tried to convince my family to go see it, but instead they wanted to see "The Living Daylights" (which I also enjoyed, it was my first Bond film.) Unfortunately Innerspace came and went so fast I never had the chance until it came to the video rental store in widecreen VHS. Thanks for this interview, he seems like such a nice guy.
Why has this not got more views. The hell.
This movie’s effects were so good. Used to scare me especially the eyeball part. I adored the cast though ! Excellent movie
As a guy who also did SFX (practical effects mainly for live TV, which adds a different demand) and VFX, I have to say that CGI tends to look better. You can really finesse everything and time is the limiting factor and not your materials and physics. But practical is so much more satisfying. Just the other week on this channel I decided to show silent ice and safe glass. A filmmaker requested it and this channel is basically about engineering. And I figured this is engineering as well. And even though this was just mounding a few pieces of rubber into ice cubes. It felt good to do some practical effects again after 3 years. And the reaction that the director/producer gave when I dropped them off. Is not the same reaction I get when I deliver a vfx shot. Then again, I also had rows with directors and producers, where I had came up with a solution that they didn’t like because it didn’t fit with their vision. But we are limited to the technology with (especially in that case) live effects that have to sell the illusion of someone have a special gift/power and a celebrity who’s not in on it, undergoing that mentalism experiment. And you need to hide the magic from the audience and that celebrity. And it needs to work in a hot studio environment, where the props needed to be lifted on stage and be ready during a commercial break.
So options get even more limited, annoying us as SFX/prop makers and them as TV makers. With VFX, there’s less stress on set. Like Joe said: “they just need to shoot the pakte.” In worst case add some strategic trackers and record the f-stop, distance, fps/shutter angle. And shoot some clean plates. So VFX so bring some calm to the set. Whereas SFX is always stress. And ironically the more productions stress, the more of the gags will fail.
Great stuff!
i really want a 4k special edition of this movie
I don't know if it's a remaster or anything, but the version for rent on UA-cam looks terrific -- far better, at least, than the version that played on Comedy Central nonstop in the '90s.
i tweeted joe dante once, i told him that i drew a summary of this movie, and one of the drawings was dennis quaids butt. (edit: there was a scene in innerpace where dennis was naked, so i drew that scene.)
Love the trailer music from The Goonies 🤣
19:36 yeep I remember that scene 😥😥😥 brah this movie terrified me and it still does I actually had a bad dream about this movie last night, I still can’t really watch it now being grown. I have phobias of the inside of us. It’s sad cause it’s a wonderful creation of god but being in this system makes us afraid of many things. 😢😢😢😢😢😢
do you know where the 2 full-size inner space pods are in 1986 i worked on building one of them,at warner found one on the backlot of warner all electronics stripped,lights chair,oxy tanks top hatch was gone it was pretty much destroyed, haven't found the other one ,did you ask mr dante about the props????
Wow
Reboot Innerspace , it’s been over 30 years! It would be amazing with todays tech.
Good director with a broad imagination
When I was very young I would ask my mom can I watch the movie with the man inside the body
And when injected Inside Martin short Quaid said am I inside bugs or what? My mind surprisingly was not thinking Bugs Bunny I was thinking bugs as in the crawling type.
So funny how Joe is even directing an interview. “Best if er first watch the trailer”
And “you did introduce me to a degree”. That’s directories for you. Screenplays like these are rarely written these days. Action comedy is a dying breed 😔 as are directors as Dante, Zemeckis, Hughes and Spielberg.
Sorry this didn't do good at the movies because I love this movie .
Why isn’t Joe Dante directing?! Or Brian Palma?! Sorry, but GenEx directors (my generation) aren’t cutting it for me. Boomers are still unmatched at 70+ age.
