I think the difference is, is that footage of war in a movie about the war makes sense. But they're taking rememberable footage that was all over the news and putting it in a movie that doesn't seem to have anything to do with it. I can understand why it gives off an uncomfortable vibe.

@@fortyozsteak You see, movies make dramatic reenactments of tragic events. They don't take the real footage of people dying and losing everything and put that into their movie. At the end of the day, the actors in the movies get to go home. (Ideally) In this, they're showing an event where people are literally dying in the footage. There's a massive difference there.

I am half Lebanese, lived there for the majority of my life. By a draw of luck, I was in Canada when the tragic explosion happed. My sister was within the shockwave of the blast and I nearly lost her. U guys hit the nail on the head. I am all for freedom of speech and freedom of artistic expression, but this felt more like an artistic and financially exploitive shortcut. It is just in very poor taste and complete lacks the self awareness of what actually went down on that day. Always been a massive fan of you guys but actually speaking out on this makes me proud to be a long time corridor fan. Cheers fellas

@ryanthompson3737 9 месяцев назад

...so then what do you call corridor crew making likely thousands of dollars, when including other revenue streams, on this video after including that trailer instead of some other one? 1/3rd of the video was dedicated to that trailer.... it would be perfectly valid to assert those same claims for corridor crew. If using that footage was exploitative and for financial gain, corridor crew is also exploitative and did it for financial gain. Intention really doesn't change guilt since the end product is still someone making money from a disaster.

I'm sorry but you can't say it was never meant to be in the trailer. Clearly a calculated decision was made to release it. Things like this don't happen by accident, film creators are very picky about trailers and make no mistake this excuse is pure bullshit. Either they left it in the trailer because it was a cheap and fast way to make an explosive shock wave or they did it to create media and public attention as a cheap way to spread the word about their film. Don't be fooled, this is exploitation of death, pure and simple.

@@ligmaballs2022 There's a difference between Oppenheimer, which is non-fiction and biographical and using a real explosion, where 200 people died and 7000 were injured to prop up your sci-fi movie. This ain't no Schindler's List, bud. The footage wasn't used in order to respect or talk about the explosion, or the context or politics, it's a Disney fictional production. For the record, "escape from reality" doesn't have to be happy or cartoonish. Watching a story unfold is escape, whether it's a tragedy or a comedy. You have a very limited and broken view of what stories are supposed to be.

@@OkScaleModels No, and you don't have to be bothered by it. Some people are and they feel it's icky to have unsourced footage of a real explosion that killed so many people used on a fictional movie and paraded around for a trailer. Maybe you should speak to the families of the people who made it out of there, they will also have opinions about it. Japan wasn't super happy with Oppenheimer either even though it was non-fiction albeit very dramatised. You're welcome to have your opinions, other people with different perspectives and experiences will have their own.

@ScareCrow90 9 месяцев назад

The Beirut scene reminds me that they used actual news footage of the aftermath of the Oklahoma City bombing at the beginning of the first X-Files movie. Like not even overlaying a cg building. They had an office building blow up and collapse and the footage after the collapse is the actual footage of the federal building. I remember my parents getting upset that they did that.

@El_Rey_247 9 месяцев назад

It's the kind of thing that I have to imagine will age "well" in the sense that people will forget about the source over time and distance, and will therefore not be taken out of the movie when it happens. Personally, I'm more bothered with how bad the rest of the explosions in that trailer were, not even remotely trying to match the reality of Beirut. It's doubly insulting, at least.

@SnifferSock 9 месяцев назад

The weird thing is IF you're going to commit to using real footage, why put in the trailer?! Much smaller odds it's noticed in theater and by that point, you've already made your money off ticket sales. Using it as inspiration (for lack of a better word) I don't have a problem with, but CGI on the real footage... yikes. Only exception would be if you somehow got the people who lived there to vote on it and they could benefit from it, but that's pretty much impossible.

@chugg159 7 месяцев назад

There's nothing conceptually wrong with using the Beirut explosion as B-Roll in a movie. I say that because we've been doing it with atomic/nuclear bombs since their inception. Oppenheimer made headlines because it was the first movie in a long long time to attempt a practical explosion without the use of CGI OR Archival footage. So in other words, it's completely normal, and we've been doing this for 70 years or so. Oh and btw, Nagasaki is among the most popularly used. I will concede that while it's normal, it isn't necessarily right. You still have to be tasteful about it, and The Creator rides the line between with and without taste.

@justicefool3942 5 месяцев назад

There are differences though. Usually, at least with anything around nuclear explosions in general, besides Hiroshima and Nagasaki, there is no great tragedy behind it. It's just weapons testing. Then any scene with Hiroshima and Nagasaki, from what I have seen, so might not be all encompassing, those exist specifically to underscore the horror of those specific attacks. The scenes from those cities aren't being used as B roll for some action movie the way the Beirut Explosion is being used.

In the context of the sequence, he's technically being blown forward slightly as he runs. But from our vantage it looks like it's just a straight 90° throw. It's probably a little exaggerated for drama but not completely off. When I first saw that moment in the trailer, I felt the same but the more I watch it, the more it makes sense and fits the scene.

When Peter Jackson pitched the fall of Sauron's tower at the end of the trilogy, it was after the 9-11.

@helenl3193 9 месяцев назад

The main thing I remembered about Speed 2 was it was a bit of a flop that seemed to be mostly talked about because Sandra Bullock was tricked into doing it by the studio who told her Keanu had already signed on to it, so she signed a contract only to later find out they lied. That was also then a bit of a talking point for the press around The Lake House, a rom-com (I think, or maybe it was just a romance/drama, not a comedy) which is the only other time they've starred together

Their building had a direct view of the port. Using footage like that and just adding VFX on top is as you say, not ok on a moral level. They could have modelled an explosion or completely changed the city, but just putting a "coat of paint" on top, that seems cheap and disrespectful. Keep up the good work guys
