@The Legendary Overlord I don't think surfaces needed to have moon dust, moon dust itself was just capable of conducting portals. So certain surfaces that don't conduct need moon dust paint, but many of the plain concrete walls in portal 2 conducted portals without paint.
Wilo Polis the walls in the test chamber might be. But several concrete walls in the cave Johnson area, which would have been built before they had moon rocks, still conducted portals. A handheld portal device isn’t super useful if it needs one type of specially designed walls to work.
Le plus dingue, c'est qu'il n'ai posté que ça en 12 ans. (Je suis persuadé que Dantrachtenberg à eu du boulot ensuite mais je regrette qu'il n'est pas exploité YT plus que ça)
@Lalrivunga Hnamte I don't think so. Example, when you ride a bike and increase the speed, there is many force and pressure at front that will make you slow down. Even when there is no or low pressure or force below you when you falling from the portal, there may have a vacuum state below and above you that make you slow down if not float.
@@rosmah8925 do you even know what terminal velocity is? its the maximum velocity an object/human/etc can reach while free falling, there is no vacuum state as you'd be travelling through air not a vacuum chamber. Idk where/why you came up with that
3:07 "Do not look into the operational end of the device. Do not touch the operational end of the device. Do not partially or fully submerge the device in liquid."
Its actually “Do not look into the operational end of the device. Do not touch the operational end of the device. Do not submerge the device in liquid, even partially. And most importantly, under no circumstances should you...”
@@Chris_M-fn6yk Technically you're wrong too. It's actually "Do not touch the operational end of the device. Do not look directly at the operational end of the device. Do not submerge the device in liquid, even partially. Most importantly, under no circumstances should you..."
NOTE: If you use some of the broken subtitles (example, Russian) you can actually see that in the end it says "Do not take the portal device out of the laboratory."
@@zombified_pariah7720 While the second one is technically superior and objectively better - the first portal was something new and different that anything before that.
@@zombified_pariah7720 the original portal actually aged fine. The graphics aren't terrible, the simple plot is fun, and it being shorter makes it super fun to blast through
@@V55-y3z Look I have as much respect for Portal 1 as you, but I remember playing it back in 2014 and EVEN THEN it felt like something a group of like 10 people put together in a week compared to Portal 2.
not really, there are plenty of flaws to this. The effects are pretty low quality(For any movie), the actor was bad, the practical effects were bad. The fact that she mastered the portal gun in a few seconds is not a really good way to start something off... It took most people at least 30 minutes to understand how the portal gun works in game... Then again this is only a RU-vid video...
I only looked through the fan film about 3 times. but I think she noticed the stains on the wall where someone had put their hands on it repeatedly and thought to check it. It's similar to where she put her hands in the following scene.
No te rindas. La ergástula es oscura, la firme trama es de incesante hierro, pero en algún recodo de tu encierro puede haber un descuido, una hendidura. El camino es fatal como la flecha pero en las grietas está Dios, que acecha. JL Borges To english: Do not give up. The ergastula is dark, the firm plot is of incessant iron, but in some corner of your confinement There may be an oversight, a slit. The road is fatal as the arrow but in the cracks is God, who lurks.
fat cat In Portal 2 the world was destroyed, so that could be a reason. But I am sure that they wanted her as a test subject, same with the games also.
This is one of the first videos I saw as a kid that inspired me to follow my dreams. Thanks from the future for your contribution to art, film, and storytelling.
One little detail I think is really creative is that when she fires a portal, the wall cracks around the portal. It's a really subtle detail, and it didn't appear in the game, but I really like the sense of realism it lends. Well played, filmmakers! Well played indeed!
“Hello, and again, welcome to the aperture science computer-aided enrichment centre. We hope your brief detention in the relaxation vault has been a pleasant one, your specimen has been processed, and we are now ready to begin the test proper. Before we start, however, keep in mind that although fun, and learning are the primary goal of all enrichment centre activities, serious injuries may occur, for your own safety, and the safety of others, please refrain from: (random gibberish) Stand back, the portal will open in 3... 2... 1...”

I remember seeing this when it first came out and really liking it, but now that I see it again, it bothers me that there are human guards. I know it adds to the sense of urgency, but the beauty of the game is that you're basically alone. It's still very well done. Shout out to The Totally Rad Show! My life hasn't been the same without it.
@@SyzygyNoon I'm pretty sure it's just the fact it will blind and/or vaporize your eyes. It's an experimental device and I wouldn't be surprised if it had side affects like that considering their bouncy gel eats your skeleton away
One of the best short films i have seen! They got the character of Chell down perfectly! She is very resourceful and extremely stubborn and doesn't give up, just like the game! 12/10!
Yeah, I just figured Glados would’ve made a weight joke about this woman, seeing as she’s totally ripped. Something like “if your ears weren’t covered in fat you would still have a face and no tumors in it”
Imagine hearing "Test Champer 1 Complete" in GLaDOS's voice before she hit the deceiving wall with her fist? Oh the chills that could've been. What a great short film. Must've worked so hard on this!
ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-OLqk4aqpXlQ.htmlm2s You have been detained in the relaxation vault for NINE......ZERO...ZER...ZERO...FOUR...ZERO.
All the non-portal fans seeing this and not knowing what's happening, then there's the portal fans just like **Laughs in moon dust** Edit: Guys, I accidentally inhaled it what do I do.
Oh yes. But it would be so much better if it was just one human person, all the sinister humor from the game, and no unnecessary romance. (or maybe a very humanoid robot that the main character would Stockholm syndrome for, only to realize again and again that their companion is a robot and would never return their feelings - but a Hollywood writer would go for the cliche "It was GlaDos all along! But you saw that coming from second one!" So it'd have to be... Valve, I guess. Or financed under a strict set of conditions so it stays true to the source material. I think everyone's tired of the "we know she's the love interest the second we meet her - oh and now they're having go out with a bang sex, sure." tropes... and would welcome something like Portal on the big screen. If I ever pick up on animation or filming, pinky swear I'll make Portal my exam project...
You should watch The Signal. Lawrence Fishburn is in it. It’s better than the trailers make it out to be. If you haven’t seen a trailer for it. Don’t watch any because they show too much.
I love this short because portal 1 and 2 are my favorites games and series of games and the short is so fricking good i have to say thats the best video of 2023 even tho it's been 11 years old
Some of these late recommendations seem normal considering they only pop up after I've searched for similar videos (like when you look up a specific motorcycle crash and suddenly every crash video on RU-vid is recommended). But I've looked up a lot of Portal videos and this is the first time I've seen this one recommended. Come on RU-vid, get better at reading my mind!
+On EDM Cloud 9: with no spoilers, I can say: its not about what happens, but how you feel after play and see the endings. The entire game you play while is in the middle of a cutscene, like if all the game was a movie and instead of watch, you interact with this movie, so the end causes you "chills moments", not because the conquest, but because what happened between the beginning and ending of the game.
When I saw the ending, I thought it was bad blue/green screen, then I realized it was a simulation. Beautiful shortfilm. Im excited for. 10 Cloverfield Lane
But there's no sense crying over every mistake, You just keep on trying till you run out of cake, And the science gets done, And you make a neat gun, For the people who are still alive.
I think that this is the first time this video has come across my feed since it first came out. The fact that the director of this would go on to direct media that would become major parts of pop culture absolutely astonishes me. Hell, even the way he put such a dramatic spin on what was just a puzzle game for people E-10+ is amazing. I love seeing the work of people who are now household names back when they first begun.
I think if there was ever a Portal movie it would be about GlaDOS and how she flooded the enrichment center with deadly neurotoxin and the movie would feature a band of scientists trying to outrun the gas by going through different chambers and using the portal technology but they all die one by one in different ways. One falls into a goo pit, one by fire, etc. Until one is left. Ratman.
Yes! Finally!! It came back around in the algorithm and I'm again blown away at just how much they were able to squeeze in with zero dialogue, amazing work!
3:07 "Very good! You are now in possession of the Aperture Science Handheld Portal Device." "With it, you can create your own portals." "These intra-dimensional gates have proven to be completely safe." "The device, however, has not." "DO NOT TOUCH THE OPERATIONAL END OF THE DEVICE." "DO NOT LOOK DIRECTLY AT THE OPERATIONAL END OF THE DEVICE." "Do not submerge The Device in liquid, even partially." "Most importantly, under no circumstances should you #############”
"Now, most test subjects are asleep for a couple months. You've been under for.. um.. quite a bit longer and it's not totally out of the question that you have a minor case of, um, severe brain damage. Now don't be alarmed. But if you are alarmed, try to, um, hold onto that feeling as it is the proper reaction to be told that you have brain damage."
At the 5 minute mark I was like, "oh come on all that amazing work put into it and you guys rush this greenscreen scene?!" but seconds later I was deeply humbled.
That was good, but if he ever directs a full length Portal movie, I just hope they don't make it that serious. Instead stick more to what Portal is. Less humans, more robots, more humor, more Glados, more Wheatley.
I would it to be about what role Aperture Science has in the world. As of now, they're extremely mysterious, unexplained and seemingly without real purpose. like, who are they developing for, and for what purpose?
@@michaelpunch5707 holy crap! 10 Cloverfield Lane, an episode of Black Mirror, the premiere episode of The Boys, and the upcoming Prey movie?! He's moved so far up since this fan film
@@tntalchemist JJ Abrams is producing, and they've already talked about it being in the works. anything can always fall through, but I'm hyped. Even if hes not the writer, im happy to be getting a Portal movie.
I remember watching this for the first time yesterday. I've been watching RU-vid for like a decade now. The almighty & benevolent Algorithm ™ did not see fit to bless my recommendeds with it until then. 🤷♂️
@@thechargentarge1341 yeah, I started watching regularly in 2009/2010 & held off on making an account as long as I could (eg, I didn't subscribe, I bookmarked) until I got my first smartphone in 2014, since I needed a Google account to use it. *not that it f⛎cking matters because 7+ years falls within the range of "like a decade," as "about a decade"* *NOT THAT I'M CALLING CALLING YOU OUT FOR A F⛎CKING PEDANT*
she wouldn't have been able to even get out of the first room with that portal gun if it wasn't for those guards, since there is no space outside that room for her shoot the destination port. After all, it's a pretty tricky device since the destination must be accessible from the side of it's user
This was a triumph I'm making a note here HUGE SUCCESS It's hard to overstate my satisfaction Aperture Science We do what we must because we can For the good of all of us Except the ones who are dead But there's no sense crying over every mistake You just keep on trying till you run out of cake And the science gets done And you make a neat gun For the people who are still alive I'm not even angry I'm being so sincere right now Even though you broke my heart and killed me And tore me to pieces And threw every piece into a fire As they burned it hurt because I was so happy for you Now these points of data make a beautiful line And we're out of beta, we're releasing on time So I'm GLaD, I got burned, think of all the things we learned For the people who are still alive Go ahead and leave me I think I'd prefer to stay inside Maybe you'll find someone else to help you Maybe Black Mesa That was a joke, ha ha, FAT CHANCE Anyway this cake is great It's so delicious and moist Look at me still talking when there's science to do When I look up there, it makes me GLaD, I'm not you I've experiments to run, there is research to be done On the people who are still alive And believe me I am still alive I'm doing science and I'm still alive I feel fantastic and I'm still alive And while you're dying I'll be still alive And when you're dead I will be still alive Still alive STILL ALIVE
Ultimate Monkey Okay. Well I think "the cake is a lie" is better because it's a metaphor that alredy fits this scenario. There is no need to substitute it for "freedom" to make it clearer, since that destroys the silly metaphor and just becomes a fact. And a fact is rarely funny on it's own, unless it is the fact that ducks have corkscrew shaped penises. He should have said that instead.
Ultimate Monkey Did you know ants don't sleep? So when they climb up under leaves in the rainforest and hold on with a steady grip, other ants will avoid them since their brains probably are infested with a behaviour altering fungus, making them a ticking spore-bomb :)
