The story of the production of The Hobbit is that Del Toro had wanted to do the Hobbit for a long time and was told he could do it his way. The company that had the rights to the license was financially strained tho so they had to bring in alot of investors and give them alot of power over the project (Weinstein being one of them). After a year of production the execs got cold feet because Del Toro's vision was very different in tone to the ring trilogy and they were afraid it wouldnt make as much money as it potentially could. So they tried to meddle and Del Toro was either fired or left on his own (until nda's expire we probably wont know). The movie was at this point still produced in New Zealand but as there was no director to combat anymore the execs wanted to move production to eastern europe where movie workers rights were less developed. To prevent this Jackson came in and said he would direct if production was kept in New Zealand. He was emotionally and physically drained after the last trilogy and really didnt look forward to it but did it out of an obligation to both New Zealand and the world wide fans. Del Toro's preproduction was scrapped so they had none of the prep time they had with the original trilogy. Alot of crucial design decisions were made on the fly. They hadnt even decided how many legs Smaug should have AFTER he appeared in the first movie. It was also stretched to 3 movies because the contracts with the investors only entitled them to profits from the first movie so the production company wanted more money for themselves. This is why the pacing is way off. Execs were also afraid that Bilbo and Thorin's friendship would be interpreted and memed online as 'gay' (as Frodo and Sam had) so they demanded that their scenes were to be shortened and a female love interest would be shoehorned in to make the movie less 'gay'. Evangeline Lilly was already cast on the premise that she WOULDNT be part of a love triangle, so that was changed. This also meant that during production less and less scenes focused on the dwarves as the script deviated from Jacksons original. And this is only the short version. Now after the fact its obvious that a potentially great project was destroyed by greed. I really recommend watching documentaries about the whole debacle and let it stand as a prime example of how not to treat a franchise.

@ffnbbq 5 жыл бұрын

I remember when Warner and Peter Jackson threatened to pull production from NZ due to a union dispute, so the conservative government rushed in new laws to cripple the local creative arts unions and to provide funding to big budget foreign films. It was later revealed that the unions and Warner Bros had reached an agreement, but both the government and studios kept quiet, evidently to sow the seeds of public panic and hysteria, which allowed them to move forward with their end goal of union breaking. Everybody forgets THAT.

@Bhalforii 5 жыл бұрын

@@ffnbbq Actually Jackson was never for moving production but knew that if the New Zealand actors union got what they wanted then he would be powerless to stop Warner from doing it. The actors union was specifically trying to hold The hobbit hostage as a stunt to attract attention. You could say he had no choice but to get involved. The choices he had, as he saw them, was to either attack movie workers proposed extended right to unionize or see thousands of jobs be lost to other countries. Basically removing what actually attracted movie companies to NZ from the beginning (cheaper labour). I wont say I agree with union supression in general but the consequences he feared has happened before in other industries and countries.

The "Tappy Feet" one looks like either a remake or a rebranding of an OLD movie (1970s or 80s I think) called Scamper the Penguin. I watched it all the time as a kid, it's way older than Happy Feet (though Happy Feet is way better). (looked it up, the original was The Adventures of Lolo the Penguin, stuff got changed for the US, the movie is from 1986, the American "Scamper" version is heavily edited and yes Tappy Feet is the same movie with just some slightly updated cover art)

Funny thing though, The Adventures Of Scamper the Penguin was a movie that was rereleased in 2004, 2 years before Happy Feet came out. So they seriously took the title of the film that was a rerelease from 2004 for their film that came out in 2011. What the fuck.

They were seen on Amazon - they integrated their database into the Amazon store. Then amazon realised it was competing with their own streaming service/sales and killed it. But it ran for some time in a subsection on Amazon. Not sure why they bothered to be honest but I suspect it was just to get rid of their competition. And I think the clincher for that argument is that they immediately killed the gaming rentals when they bought it.

The Hobbit might have had a dragon, but they didn’t have Chef Excellence!

@AlisonBryen 3 жыл бұрын

The Hobbit also didn't have enough source material to make a trilogy. Sorry for the random rant. The Hobbit deserved a better adaption...and I say this as a huge LOTR fan. Edit: The addition of Chef Excellence would have greatly improved The Hobbit

I dunno about the adaptation, but the original novel Norwegian Wood is wonderful. It's extremely melancholy but oddly beautiful, like most of Murakami's works.

Here's a rough idea of why this video type is popular, Stuart: Google would have you believe that most viewers of a channel only watch a video if it's less than 15mins long and then just click something else like a low-attention span 5 year old. A good chunk of us though like to put on videos while we're doing something else; think of the people who binge-watch Netflix shows. More often than not, they're not actually watching the show, just letting it play. Long videos like this, with this inexorably "dull" content, are PERFECT for that kind of viewer. For instance, I like to just set your videos on autoplay shuffle sometimes while i'm playing games that don't require any real thought, like grinding in a JRPG. So yeah, there IS a reason these videos work. Please keep doing them.

@Blakbox92 5 жыл бұрын

Seriously I swear I hear "oh I'm doing a long video, nobody's going to watch this" from a lot of KZfaq content producers... but 20-30 minute videos just make sense, the average TV show is around 22-45 minutes long, after all. I'll take anything lengthy I can play while working, doing chores, working out, drawing or playing games.

Tappy Feet was originally just 'Scamper the penguin'. It came out way before Happy Feet and was probably just re-branded to boost sales. I loved that movie as a kid and remember some really weird songs being in it, including one about how seagulls are evil, and another about how if penguins get caught and put in zoos they wish that they were dead. I'm not saying it was good, or even tolerable, just that it's got some major nostalgia vibes for me.
