Season 4 Lost in Space episode 1 prototype animation. What could be done if Lost in Space were created via CGI. Enjoy! Check out my other Lost in Space videos.
This was great! Wonderful soundtrack choices for each scene. Lost In Space could really work well as a CGI series -- they can keep all the retro design aspects, never have to age the kids, and the aliens can be more than a guy in a carpet or silver paint!!!
Love it! Personally, I could watch an entire series in this format. You especially had Don West down to a T. I liked how the dust kicked up after the Chariot stopped.
Mr. hamilton are you responsible for all thse incredible CGI's??? You are a genius! I"m not that crazy of CGI's--but your s are tastefully, invenfully done--you also include the original voices and great original music . That shows me you have a sensitive care for the original TV series-- THAT is intelligence--and makes your cgi's fun to watch!!
Actually, the idea of this video was completely surrounded by West "decking" Smith. Then I built the rest of the video around that. Thank you for the comment.
Phil, I just have to say that you are doing amazing work on these videos! I love LOST IN SPACE more than human words can allow me to express, and it is obvious that you do, too! I was 8 years old in the fall of 1965 when the show began appearing on CBS on Wednesday nights at 8:00 pm, and now, I can't imagine life without the show! Thank you for all the effort you have put into these CGI episodes! I watch them almost every day!
You ARE my hero!!! To finally see Don just deck Smith was my dream for SOOO long!!! I also had this idea for a series of videos, “101 ways to kill Dr Smith”! (All those times Smith used Will as a human shield, the monster, or enemy just gently moves Will aside, then clobbers Smith)!! But mostly, it would be Don doing the deed!! Also, John should get a few kills, for all the times Smith put the kids in danger!!
Excellent work! If this could be done somehow that it would be either a weekly series or something to that effect would be absolutely incredible! Job well done sir :-)
This is totally great first time I seen this I would love this the whole series you can get this on DVD if anybody has any information out there please let me know
Well done , I really enjoy your work , it brings suck a smile on my face to see and hear new vintage Lost in space episodes, I’m sure they take a lot of work to do, keep em coming and thank you for keeping the dream alive.
it was worth the few ninutes of my existence to watch. the faces were amusingly unsettling. sure id watch it again even though dr smith wasnt roughed up near enough. he had much much more comming
Very Impressive! though i am not entirely sold too much on computer animation,this touching tribute to "LOST IN SPACE" was well made,and done quite accurately! being a Die-Hard fan of this vintage TV series,this is seriously great treatment,esp. with the original John Williams music intact-keep up the great work!
Ohh, so close. Best CGI LiS yet. Maybe in a few more years you won't be able to tell if its real or now. This version will make a very nice PS2 game. Please keep up the great work!
@hamiltonpl That(Dino tail slap) would have been great. I sent your work to a friend in London, he loved it and wants more! Is there more we can see? You did great. "Oh The Pain! The Pain!" LOL
@angel55676 It's interesting you say this about the faces. I did try very hard - HOURS of work researching straight-on and profile shots of the actors from the TV show. But recently, I decided if I had to do it again or continue this in any form - I would likely use the faceroom in POSER with existing face texture maps- they will look better. All I need to do is have them "resemble" the character and I think it will be fine. My best faces are Don, Smith, and John. tks for the comments.
Pretty darn good! Although Don never would have slugged Dr. Smith. Threatened but never hit. Just wouldn't have happened. For all its faults Lost in Space had good values and a young man would not have beat up an older man. That is why no one can make a new Lost in Space...today's values (or lack thereof) would shine though. Lost in Space is part of a decent world that has sadly passed into history. Today foul and coarse are the best we can hope for in entertainment.
@Shawnster65 i know i've heard, and seen, more than one thing as to LIS's demise (i think it was June Lockhart who said the show could have gone another season)..i do remember each of the 3 seasons being 'very different' from each other..in terms of NBC picking up Batman, maybe it's a good thing they didn't - i don't think Adam West has lived it down yet..haven't seen 'a whole lot' of Batman, but every time i see Adam West, this is were my mind goes...
@Shawnster65 one point i forgot to mention was the 'belief' that LIS could have gone for another season; but the proverbial handwriting was already on the wall..in the TV Guide of the time, there were four affiliates listed for LIS, and by the end of the second season, two had dropped it..there were only 24 eps,CBS pre-empted it more often (also pre-empted locally for two weeks (between a network pre-emption)..if they were trying to destroy the show during its third season, they succeeded...
how did Guy Williams and Jonathan Harris' vocals get added to this video, when they both passed on before this could made? Unless the dialogue from both was spliced from random dialogue uttered from previous episodes? The Robot's, too (cos Dick Tufeld is likewise no longer "available"? :(
@bigbowser101 it took me awhile to realize that the majority of episodes from the second season of LIS were played strictly for laughs - the competition being Batman's phenomenal popularity during its first season..it's been stated that LIS 'lost its direction', this, imho, being the reason...
I used to watch Lost In Space when it was telecast and repeated every damn year during the early and mid 1970s until I saw Star Trek in colour at a friend's place in 1976. From then on I became a Trekkie.
@bradhig Look up the multi CD set - Fantasy Worlds of Irwin Allen and I think LALA Land label has a 40th anniversary Lost in Space CD set too. Good luck.
Wasnt there 2 times when the Robinsons were going to or threaten to leave Dr Smith on a planet while they left.One time in the first season "Attack of the Monster Plants". Second time in the third season "the Space Destructors".The first time I think they wanted him to think that they were going to leave him because he didnt pull Jon and Don out of the quicksand.The second time John was going to really leave him because he almost turned Will into a cyborg.But Smith conned him into not doing it.
@PiroozAzDirooz Well the Monster DINO was really careful - plus that would have been one more thing to animate. I wish now I had made his tail slap that tripod up in the air - landing on it's top with a puff of dirt!!
I swear the way judy looked walking out of the J2, her face 😂 nonetheless I love your work, this looks absolutely similar. Why weren't you able to make the sky look more similar?
