I was at Expo 86

This is a long shot, but where did you find the uncompressed frames?

This video smells like cigarettes

I was there on my way to tempory duty at a CF NORAD RADAR STATION. It was great. Fish swimming around the glass floor of a dance floor. I now believe this was.animal abuse. Dreadful theme song. HORRID !

I was 22 and attended the fair with my folks in June of that year. I recall the theme was based on how transportation technology had advanced. We went through the queue for the monorail and before we were ready to board it broke down. So we walked around more and ended up leaving the grounds and got lost. We took the train to circle back to the expo and it ended up breaking down inside a tunnel. The train was packed with commuters and visitors. I quickly learned claustrophobia was a real thing and told my parents it’s best we exit off. Suffice to say, it took us a long time to return back to the fair’s main entrance. Not a fun experience. So much for the advancement of transportation! But, a group of cute guys drenched with cold water coming off the Log Flume asked me if I wanted to ride with them. I think they saw me watching the ride with scrutiny wondering if I should brave it getting soaked in frigid water on a chilly day. My mom found it humorous but I turned them down as I had never been on a Log Flume that had such steep drops that gets you completely drenched.

One of those titles you would grab along with a new release as a deal back in the days of video stores, and one of the many great movies I found in the $2 a week section. Other good ones the slipped under the radar at the time. Up World(A Gnome named Gnorm?) and the Vidiot from UHF are a couple I can think of

He sounds like the warden from superjail. I wonder if they were influenced by this guys stuff. lol

I was 17 and I rocked and swung one skytran cart like a school bell to almost 90* from level, what I didn't notice was it also swung the next 3 trans 1/2 as much down the line, scaring the bejezuses out of the old people ahead of, and behind me. They pointed at me as I came into the next station and said... THAT'S HIM, HE'S THE ONE!!! The security detained me until the angry old people were gone. They ended up giving Expo86 trinkets, and a few free tickets to a few upcoming events. But did tell me not to do that again, because getting a tran unstuck from the safety catch track would have taken hours to get the thing going again.

A wonderful time during Expo 86 👍🇨🇦

Mike and Cindy make such an ideal couple.

This is great! I love this movie! I have never seen such originality and it's done with so much fun! Mike Jittlov deserves all the praise in the world. This is a much better movie than the ones in the theatres right now.

Last time i saw lady Die in person .

Thank you Mr. Wizard...🧙‍♂️

This movie was legit the holy Grail of VHS tapes when we were young it had no title card on it cus it had been removed over time but this tape had changed mine and my circle of close friends it had just inserted itself into our existence directly in the midst of our lives when we had decided to travel to other worldy experience by ingesting copious amounts of super powerful blotter acid and this movie legit changed our lives

This is genuinely better than the superspeed effects created today.

Some of the best stop-motion I've ever seen, and such an eccentric production.

I loved Expo 86, great memories!!

I used to live and work in Hollywood and I wish I knew somebody like Mike

Proper use of Capsela ; )

I remember watching this movie as a kid and absolutely loving it, thank you for the wonderful nostalgia trip

To think I was a 21 y/o male working in Bentall 4, as a clerk in a corporate setting. Downtown was bustling in those days! Through work we were able to buy a season's pass for $100 via payroll deduction.

The Pied Piper kidnapped children and led them into the forest to be eaten by the rats because the villagers didn't pay him for getting rid of the rats. Danny Kaye should have picked a better character for International Children's Day than a kidnapper and mass murderer of children.

I went to Expo 86 three times, I rode the Scream Machine three times in one day, the average wait in line was 2 hours, so around 6 hours standing in line and 6 minutes total riding the coaster. It was worth it. My dad helped install the motors & cables for the two SkyRides, those gondolas in front of Science World and the other side of the Cambie Street Bridge, he got us free passes to the opening day ceremonies, I was somewhere around when Chuck & Di were, I saw them on their boat from the McBarge, a McDonalds on a big boat, didn't see me or anyone I know in the video though.

So effin' lame.

Bellbottoms in 1988. Mike sure was trendy.

I couldn't find this movie for the life of me.. my mom got this VHS when I was little and I remember seeing the cover art and couldn't ever remember what it was called. 35 years later and I found it lol

So many great memories. Spirit Lodge and Rainbow War knocked my socks off, and the fireworks were just amazing every night. Thanks.

God this brings back memories and a little tear The 80’s 🎉

This is brilliant always thought this would be an amazing movie today!!!!!

Better speed run than The Flash.

…I was 21, and my friends and I had a 3 day pass. It was safe and clean in Vancouver. We had the best time, and it is one of my favorite memories. I miss those days. 🇨🇦🩵🙋🏻‍♀️🌸

Pre global warming days - look how cold it was in August backcin the day

This must be the most ambitious amature film before "The Rings of Power"

I've been looking for this movie for 25 years - bless you

Thank you for your efforts to preserve this film, just a crying shame there are no subtitles available. :(

Spectacular

He should have done the special effects for Santa Claus the movie 😊

I remember seeing this film as a kid and it still takes up a portion of my brain to this day, so glad I finally searched for it, little gem of a film

Meta before Meta!

Another great Robbie Song!

1986 was the year of Expo 86 in Vancouver and Vecna in Hawkins. Imagine if they co-existed.

Steam Expo was the best.

Nothing to do with Expo 86 but it happened in 1986. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/hJikibOd0Muoo2g.html

Yeaaaaaaaay! I wonder what Mike Jittlov is doing today?

Thank you so so so so so so much for posting this :) ❤

God I love this movie!

Famously the opening day was also the day princess Diana fainted during her tour of the Expo site. I believe it took place near the China pavilion

*THIS* is the film that inspired me to start creating my own content (I can hardly call my work "film") Thanks E-Clips for restoring this!

This movie feels like it’s encapsulated so many things from my own life. I can’t help but feel I should’ve gone to LA to try to make movies. I guess I could still make independent films and put them on KZfaq.

seem just like yesterday going to Expo 86 I was 17 38 yrs later wow... where did the time go
