2001 is definitely one of my favourites of his. It paved the way for so many sci fi movies

Fully analog. The people who made those movies were artisans and it sucks because those skills are lost now. Nobody knows how to do those analog special effects anymore. It would probably take a very capable team a decade to re-figure all that stuff out.

Unpopular opinion: analog special effects >>>> digital fx

Oh definitely. The first two alien movies for example. And prometheus and covenant. Way better in my opinion because the xenomorph is a tall skinny guy wearing a well made suit

Yes, agreed. In 2001 I couldn’t believe how good the apes looked even though they were guys in mechanical suits. But looks way more real and interesting than animations.

Have you seen The Thing? Some of the best analog special effects of all time imo

No I haven’t. I wanna watch it soon. I think ypu mentionned it to me already

It is so good. The music, fx, plot. Love that movie.

It’s downloading as we speak 🫑

Enjoy πŸ‘‘

Looking forward to it. Thanks πŸ‘‘

The Thing was so, so ahead of its time. I rewatch it like almost every year.

That creature is absolutely disgusting! πŸ˜‚

CGI would never be able to make something like this. It looks like it was made recently

It really is incredible and incredibly creepy. Who the fuck can think of those things?πŸ˜‚πŸ˜©

Yeah it’s a masterpiece. And something that won’t ever be recreated.
