look at that guy! nice to see ur face on a vid again :) and good reviews

Well, well, well. Who’s this handsome chap?

Interesting analysis! I agree that animation as a technique can not really be divorced from motion-capture, no matter how realistic it looks. It's the difficulty with trying to fit things into strictly defined categories. I think anyone making a film, especially a VFX driven film (but really all films to some degree), just use whatever clever or useful techniques they can find to get the desired images on-screen. That means fully mixing and matching artistic or performance techniques that get the best results. Like in the original Planet of the Apes, you could maybe argue that an actor performing through prosthetics is really a sophisticated, unique form or puppetry, or that puppeteers controlling an animatronic character (or a Muppet!) are really actors. as long as they get the desired results, the category doesn't really matter, though I'd argue that proper credit and recognition (and compensation) for everyone's work does matter. Should a stunt double or a hand model for specific shots be considered a "true" actor for that character? They certainly could be making important acting choices, just in very specific ways related to their craft. Sometimes an actor's performance on set can be transformed or completely changed through how it is edited, so maybe an editor in some sense is "acting" or at least contributing choices to the character's performance in those cases. We could also flip the mocap animation vs. performance capture question around: are animators really actors, actually? Hand-animated performances can be just as realistic or exaggerated, honest, emotional and human as any live-action performance. It's just a matter of how much time and skill an animator has, and how well they collaborate with character designers, storyboard artists, modelers, texture artists, etc. Films like Into/Across the Spider-Verse, Finding Nemo, The Incredibles, Beauty and the Beast, etc. are just a few examples. Animation is just a different collection of skills and methods used to create a character's performance in a movie.

Good video! I think mocap is definitely a form of animation, but one much closer to the "real"... maybe something in between. A hybrid type of animation, a bit like stop-motion / claymation which exists in real life physically while still being animation.

Excellent analysis. Out of interest do you think separations between the vocal and mocap performances (e.g. lawerence fishburn voicing the silver surfer whilst Doug jones physical play him) play into the idea of the cyber star or do they operate as extentions of the collobrative effort?

good video :) I've still got to watch fight club!

Great stuff! Wonderful analysis of the American Dream and how it comes about in this film :) well done!

I’VE BEEN WAITING !

Excellent analysis

Yeah it’s a great movie. I agree pacing was improved. Acting, cinematography is outstanding

Seems only fitting, that Oppenheimer was a big winner at the Oscars. Because when you think about it, what was the one thing that benefitted from the dropping of Hiroshima and Nagasaki? The 70-year old monster franchise from Japan, GODZILLA!!!!! Ahh, excuse me, Academy Award-winner GODZILLA!!!!!!!

I AM THE FRIEND THAT SAID THE THING LETS GOOOOOOOOOO

I really enjoy reading a book and then watching the movie adaptation -- and this film was a really good representation of the book "Elvis and Me."

Such a well balanced video! Your analysis of characters and comparisons with Nolan’s Oppenheimer is great

Great video! I learnt a lot about the themes behind Godzilla and I understood your comparisons. I especially liked the bit on perspective re: American vs. Japanese ideas of the war and its outcomes. Keep it up!

Wonderful analysis

Ok I am sorry Percilla is in no way a modern day or any kind of a princess. Elvis was considered the King Of Rock & Roll. He was a king of his craft. There is nothing that makes Percilla a Queen . Plus she is not a widow she is an ex wife who has lived of her ex husband all her lufe from age 14 and still is. Plus she trys to paint herself up as thus innocent little girl which could not be more wrong. Plus she has bashes still to this day but loves profiting from him and hus family. I can not take any of her words as gospel since she has said all these things since his death. He is not here to tell his side. Yet there have been plenty who were around both of them daily and dispute what she says. A more closer version to the truth is in the book child bride more then this damsel in distress load of lies that Percilla has created and Coppola bought into. Plus Elvis Presley interprise dud not stand behind this movie and did not allow them to use Elvis movie or other private things they have allowed for others. Percilla only brought in around 20 million at the box office. Where as 2022 Baz Elvis movie starting Austin Butler who did an amazing job and was robbed of the Oscar and the film got shut out with 8 nominations had around 300 million at the box office and this was coming out of the heals of corona19 as well. A truly real interesting thing to research would be to look at all the movies done about Elvis throughout the years and see where the Percilla movie ranks in sells. Plus the biggest truth no one woyld even know who Percilla was if she had not wormed her way onto his life. Do not feel sorry for her 1 bit but I do feel sorry for her son who has lived in the shadows all is life and treated as a dirty little secret of who Percilla never really talks about. No wonder he has struggled most of his life this is truths people like to ignore.

Enjoyed your take. I was glad to pick this up on physical.

love the colour analysis! looking forward to rewatching Unbreakable at some point and paying attention to these details!

This is a great exploration of Spaeny's performance! :)

Really clever! I like the comparison to Marie Antoinette, it seems very fitting and makes a lot of sense. Nice work :D

you're getting better bro, keep it up

The only super hero movie I’ve enjoyed since 2000… this movie is an Oxymoron…slow burn /realistic super hero movie of a gem!

bro how do you not have like 10 mil subs your goated

never seen this one (no surprises there...) but this video has made me want to watch it tbh. I like this kind of film, they always seem so refreshing compared to the, let's say, repetitive nature of modern superhero movies!

Thank you in advance! 0:53

Banging list!!! I need to watch more films…

Oppenheimer is the best film in decades of film making. There is so much to take in, we saw it 3 x in IMAX. Now we have the BluRay dvd, it’s streaming and on VOD. But none of this does the theater experience justice. Hoping for a re release!

Nice list! As you may expect, I've seen a whole 1 of these films, but some are definitely on my list for when I have more time in my life. You've convinced me on The Boy and the Heron + Scrapper!

ur killin it

Did they get a double for all those sick kick flips?

Great review, Evan! 👏 Thank you. Sounds like a really original film. I’ve put it to the top of my ‘To watch’ list now - can’t wait 😊🎞️ Chloe

It's not even 1 min, clickbait

I kinda disagree my guy, the only thing that was truly bad for me was Susan Sarandon's performance, which I can only describe as more wooden than a log cabin. The rest of it was just fine, certainly not groundbreaking, but definitely not offensively bad.

does victoria kord do a little justin hammer dance?

The versions of the turtles in this movie were different from the ones I grew up with, but the core of the characters and what made them iconic was still there. Even Super Fly was a pretty good villain. Overall it was pretty endearing, and fun! So I had a good time with it. Great review! Keep it up, dude 👍

Wow, this has to be the earliest I've EVER found such a well made video by such a well spoken YTer. Just 52 views and now I'll be your 22nd sub.

Bruh that Onerepublic song is a bbooppppp

I really enjoy this movie. Fun movie.

I didn’t really care for the movie that much. It had some funny moments but, I just think it’s a one time watch.

I wouldn’t say I loved it but, all the tech aspects and the acting is very good. It’s not something I’d buy for my collection but, I’d still say a postive score.

Absolutely agree! Just saw this yesterday and I'd give it an 8.5 or 9/10 personally. Really exceeded my already high expectations- though I do agree it can come across as a little preachy (sometimes that's what a mainstream film needs, I think) I loved how they resolved the Ken and Barbie storyline in the end :) Ferrell's character was a bit unnecessary, but not bad at all per se. Sort of subverted expectations about who the 'real' villain was going to be ! It was everything a Barbie movie needed to be and more.

you're dripping like a leaky tap in that suit my guy. (btw was I the only one who thought Emily Blunt was barely in it?)

oh no the runaway train from inception it's taken control of the pacing
