@@casjansen4733 haha! You must ve seen a lot more films than me. Seriously, I could imagine, what do you mean by "boring". Nevertheless, just love knowing the artists featured by this series. I'm not aware of them before, or only too little, perhaps I'm just an outsider in this case ;)
Not many of you know this but this guy once rammed his Jeep into a burning car just to save some people trapped in a Ford product next to it after a horrible auto accident.
Ralph I am but fan of your work but the reason why Chrysler sucks is because mechanics like me get to keep fixing your products. They just keep breaking and having problems. Just being honest man.
The movie is excellent, but I have a strong dislike for Ralph. There's definitely something off about him. I feel some kind of narcissism. He has a history of making his wife cry, and what's even more surprising is that she seems to accept it as normal. Can you imagine if the tables were turned and his wife made him cry? Would he think that's acceptable? I'm quite certain he doesn't handle criticism well. It's hard to believe that he's the designer for Viper. I doubt he can produce anything of value. I stand by my words, and we'll see in a year if he's capable of creating anything worthwhile.
@@austriadiamolo WTF you allow yourself to talk in such a tone? Am I your friend or what? Learn to communicate normally and then go ahead with your questions. In short, go F yourself. I guess such speech is more understandable for you. Is it clear now?
At 5:22, completely disagree with him on "hating directional wheels". The wheels in the sketch behind him have so much more character and that "sense of movement" while still. Seems like he was the only one in that group that "hated these wheels". Straight spoke rims are great, but those have been around for literally decades.. The world is ready for tasteful change..
First of all, this is not a documentary about design. I didnt see a single detailed sketch animation on screen. Its about the story of how one man “made it”, how he makes millions of dollars and you dont. How he is so much better than you. How much your life sucks but you watch this documentary anyway so Netflix makes money. No. I refuse to fall into this despicable trap Netflix puts me in as a viewer. We reject cinematic content that mocks us for our simple jobs and our ordinary lives. Negative 5 for this documentary. And the pathetic 200k views even after 2 years of release means many many people agree with me. PS. I only ended up watching this crap after falling asleep watching Bill Nye answer science questions when the autoplay ended up here when I woke up.
No matter how good you design american cars they will always retain their reputation of shit cars. Americans have always made low quality cars compated to Europeans (especially German) and Japanese and they invested heavily in advertising persuading people how "great" they are.
The best part to me is how he wrote to Chrysler back in the day. Lee Iacocca is such a visionary leader, young Ralph is a good example of how Lee's leadership cultivate the future of car industry. The drive and loyalty of Ralph is something no money can buy.
Damn! This brings up such emotions. I want kids to see that there are pathways in this world that you might not now exist and you have to seek them out. This will be on my playlist for middle school art as a career/pathway/person of color success story. This really reaches me deep down! Thank you Netflix and Ralph Gilles for giving us INSPIRATION to move forward.
Under Daimler Chrysler, the brand Chrysler has introduced more cars then ever before. Chrysler 300C, PtCruiser, Crossfire, Pacifica, Prowler, Aspen, a new Sebring, two new Minivans Town&Country. Chrysler has put out the most beautiful concepts during the Daimler Chrysler era, so it really upsets me to hear in this documentary „that something was off with Daimler buying Chrysler“. If Daimler wouldn’t have bought and invested in Chrysler, I am sure Mr. Kerkorian would‘ve conducted his planed hostile take-over. I am 100% confident that Mr. Gilles knows this. Also many Chrysler, Jeep, Dodge vehicles are still based on Mercedes platforms because they are actually good. What Fiat has done to the design of the Jeep Cherokee, the Renegade, the Chrysler 200, the Chrysler Pacifica and even the design evolution of the 300, is one big disappointment. Go back to your concepts from 1990‘s till 2007. I KNOW Chrysler can pull it off again. But offering ordinary looking cars like the current ones will not help at all. Bring back the 1950‘s inspired car designs, bring back the beautiful Chrysler brand logo and it’s stunning wings from before 2010. But I am very happy that they did not transform this concept from this video into production. The design is unattractive in my opinion. However, I had a glimpse of hope as I saw the design for a planned full-sized Chrysler SUV, rumored to be called „Chrysler Atlantic“. There has been concepts drawings online of one green-white SUV and a smaller one in the background with a stunning silver from grill and beautiful round fog-lights. That design is stunning of the golden brown concept with this beautiful chrome front grill. This design will turn heads, that is the design customers want, that’s a design Chrysler needs to be back in the position of building cars that are so unique and stick out with beautiful art-deco design cars. Please bring back Chrysler!
Its not the look that's important its engines transmissions the hart of the car iam professional driver never driven Chrysler dode till i bought dodge caravan 2013 it brakes down every week amarican piece of junk
I feel the same way most of the cars shown just weren't beautiful in my opinion especially not the concept car. looking like a generic sci fi sketch, like a toy, a plastic shell without any substance
One of my fav careers, I`d love to be an auto designer; Chrysler has some of the most beautiful designs ever, the 90s concepts were so iconic you could almost see them on the streets; the 300 first gen with chromed side mirrors it`s a fascinating car to look at; but the real bugs affecting their image is quality, I hope in the near future they`re capable of getting out of it to become a succesful brand, a lot of us think that way, great review, and Ralph congratulations, one of the best designers!!!
I think what he means is his designs have to be looking towards the future because if he is designing based on the present by the time the car comes out it will be outdated
Chrysler has had SEVERAL "dodgy" products... still continues till this day. They also have some of the worst looking cars in the last 20 years to be on the market.
The problem of Chrysler is, the company didn't have the initiative to make two door sportcar just like hyundai did. You know the sportcar, transcend through time, year, And it still kickass. Every normal carguy every year falling in love with basic two door sportcar. In our country Malaysia 🇲🇾, the keicar that had four door never feed our taste. Recently, our national car manufacturer Perodua, launched the basic version of mini hatch car named Axia, The problem is, their never debut any mini hatch that came with two door just like fiat 500, austin mini@mini cooper and daihatsu mira. And i love to mention, recently, Hyundai got launched the '74 N concept, resemble the '74 pony. Personally, it really kick my mind.
Outside the USA, there are very few people who admire the design of modern-day US cars. US car manufacturers honestly have no idea where their design to go in the next 10 or 20 years. US car manufacturers are really slow at designing new cars even if most of their cars look so outdated and obsolete. On top of that, you can talk a lot about quality issues of US cars
Wow! Born the same yr, learned from the same cars, parents from JA tho, born artist, wanted to design cars too! I remember when I saw the 300 in '03, Revolutionary!
so proud to know, he is of Haitian descendants, as Cuban Caribean I have huge admiration for our French Black neighbors, hard-working people and gifted
I will go in the opposite direction of this video : I would like to see again a simple butter box like the K car with crank window , rubber mat & no infotaiment . People need a simple car to get from point A to B .If as a bonus it would be reliable the first time and sold for under 15,000 dollars it could be a hit like 40 years ago. As proof I see a lot of hyundai Venue ( under 20k $ ) which reminds me of the chrysler hit just before the k cars : the Omni & Horizon with the same roof line & doors .Those cars showed us that the design was not that important .
Some of his old drawings Chrysler should look into making into cars. The new concept car looks better as a solid color. Looks like an electric car. I'm not that great on how it looks, but I understand that it's designed with the concept of the interior becomes a passenger space in it's entirety. And that the car is designed with that affecting the overall look because if it looked like a car that you pictured as a car that you drove, it would be at odds with designing a self driving car. Enjoyed watching his journey.
I see his talented hard working team, but he failed. He went to mille miglia to look for good car proportions, how is it possibile that his car has none with nearly 5meter long wtf. Fail
