We will forget dozens and dozens movies with cgi graphics, but Robo still remains classic.

Good writing, edgy social commentary, dark humor, compelling premise… all the stuff that today’s dumbo CG movies lack

@kennethc2466 3 месяца назад

All these wonderful artists, set builders, puppeteers, etc...all replaced by a computer program used to make video games. CGI movies should be called animated movies, NOT films. Modern kids think Marvel movies are 'art', and Dracula, Lawrence of Arabia, Ben Hur, etc are 'boring', and 'ugly'. We live in a world were art is not valued anymore, even by the consumer.

@@kennethc2466 You’re right about a lot there. To be fair, a lot of masterpieces were considered boring and dumb when they were released. The Magnificent Ambersons by Orson Welles for example. Now considered a masterpiece. The studio actually re edited it without his permission

@@trashyraccoon2615 The film was nominated for four Academy Awards, including Best Picture, that year. It also won in National Board of Review Awards, and New York Film Critics Circle Awards. I'd hardly call 'considered boring' as the consensus at the time.

Dick Jones falling out the window is probably the worst effects shot from the entire decade. It'd be interesting to know the rationale behind using a foam puppet vs. a stunt double against a green screen. Someone must've really loved stop motion.

I still amazed watching this, for that time... and love the 'clunky'ness of the animation. Also agree with the current tech would replace StopMotion alltogether, but somewhere in my mind; that old stopmotion would still have it's charm. And ED-209 will become reality one day, like Knightrider is basically covered in automobiles these days; videocall, turboboost, articulating spoilers, self driving (!) and whatnot.

@Psycandy 3 месяца назад

worked on a TVC with Robo in 2019. IMHO these guys are geniuses, legends of an altogether different order. I also work in-camera, also experienced the joy of compositing with emulsion and equally moved into CG as quickly as possible. I feel it is a great loss to the craft, to the magic of storytelling and spellbound audiences, that practicals are vanishing, mattes, miniatures... but also know that 98% of the work is in camera and some 2% post, so all digital does is speed everything up but that's about it

@16:39 Yeaaa... Stop motion in predominantly Live Action films like RoboCop are probably a thing of the past and barely missed albeit still kicking ass and taking names in pure Stop Motion Movies like the 2016 Kubo and the Two Strings. Still tipping my Hat to Phil and his work on RoboCop 2 with RoboCain... Pure Sex-Appeal how they animated that monster which made appreciate it even more when I played the 2023 RoboCop: Rogue City with its atrociously bad choreographed and animated final Boss Fight sporting an unnecessarily unrecognizable move set for that Enemy when compared to the Movie.

@Buck3366 3 месяца назад

Seeing the Dick Jones model cast you can now see how ridiculously long the arms were. What an awful looking thing it was that only went on to make a bad effect look worse. They should have just cut that fall scene completely and just had Cox go through the window backwards and cut away with him screaming as he fell off camera.

@Dr.W.Krueger 3 месяца назад

They explicitly wanted the fall in a wide shot. Back then you would usually get the actor back for that part, put him in a harness in front of blue screen and pull the camera back on a very long track(30 meters and more). That apparently wasn't an option so far into post at that point. It is what it is. 🤷‍♂

@ToyFiend 2 месяца назад

A masterpiece of a movie, ruined by that ridiculous Dick Jones puppet falling. Verhoeven should have cut that shit out and inserted a practical shot of dude splatting on the street or something. And only 1 year later, Die Hard did the same shot by dropping Allan Rickman from camera and it was perfect.
