Dude it’s 2024 and it still the best damn make up and acting EVER!!!

I’m glad Mawhonic survived his brutal would-be death in the Boonta Eve Classic, only to settle into a lifestyle equally as treacherous as a NY cabbie in the late 90s.

Robert Picardo played Meg Mucklebones in _Legend_ from 1985. "Blech! Foul tasting Fairy!" Then Meg turns on Tom Cruise. "Well, come to meg...JUICY BOY!" Before that, he was Eddie the werewolf in _The Howling_ "Take it. Call it a gift. Come on, bright boy..." (Kevin Smith later grafted those lines in _Dogma._ ) Robert Picardo said that masked performance was very liberating. You can see how much in the way Eddie Murphy 'cuts himself down' after he turns into the old Jewish man. The same happens when Colin Farrell becomes the Penguin. So despite the differences between liberals and conservatives, who is ready for Halloween? Get your false face and be free.

"He's our connection. He's the connection between that fantasy that George Lucas is creating that people are just going to have a blast with this summer...and Pepsi!" (Tim Heidecker could not have pulled out a better line.)

Got to love they think that the connection to pepsi and star wars means alien that makes fun of star wars fans and he loves pepsi. No wonder this didn't work. This is mighty number nine levels of stupidity

A true master. The Howling. The Thing. Total Recall. And... he designed the original Robocop

Don’t let the fucking dream die

ശ്രീ. സാർ സൂപ്പർ നന്നായിട് ഉണ്ട്🙏🙏🙏

It’s ironic this shows up in my recommended thread just a few days after watching the movie.

Application vidéo?

Just listened to the opening and it was a mistake. It was supposed to be ILM’s make up department not model shop…

That is the coolest!

The thing horror film you can never forget from being a teen in 80s

Bro looks like my left nut

Cool interview for all the rabid Bottin fans out there! The guy was a giant in the film industry, then left on his own terms. Legend.

Rob did some cool films with Joe Dante. Amazingly talented guy.

Genius at work

That's so cool that Rick Baker is mentioning you. You deserve it.

I think that Rob did this at Henry's studio. Henry improved my work so much by just glancing at my portfolio. He told me not to think about texture. Get the forms right and make it dynamic. Being around a guy like Henry really improved Rob's work. Have you shown this to Rob?

Wow! have you shown this to Rick? The tribute pieces that you have done are fantastic , as is all of your work. I can't get over how Spielberg locked him out of the shop and absconded with all of the work he did. He's the reason I became a special effects makeup artist in 1981. I saw a photo of a guy who looked and dressed like me, creating work like no one had ever seen before. It gave me the confidence to start doing it, and I haven't stopped since.

i wish there was more Marphalump merch,, a figure would have been amazing 😭

😂

Did you remake the model?

So this was a remake of the model?

Cool clip compilation. Very talented guy. Wish each clip said which movie it was from though

When I think about great sculptors of the past like Michelangelo, Bernini, Reminsnider etc... They're so amazing on their own. But this really goes beyond sculpture. Its engineering, animatronics, makeup effects. They took an already incredible art form and made it their own and immortalised it on film forever. Thank you Mr. Bottin for all the amazing work and inspiring the next generations. We love you.

For a guy that young to work on so many great films (The Thing, Total Recall, Legend, The Howling) before he was 30 is insane. Calling him a virtuoso would be an understatement. Not only do you have to be good at sculpture, but also engineering and animatronics.

BOBBY B!!!!!!

where in the world did you find this footage?

What was this interview originally from?

2:44 sorry WW2 this was the happening of the century apparently.

I love drinking Pepsi™️

Excellent!

he should have received so many more awards for his work. Star Wars, Legend, Se7en, The Thing, The Howling, Mimic ...

Awesome.

This just popped up in my feed, I was watching this commercial the other day while editing a video for my channel, wanted to use a small clip but couldn't find a high quality version. I just made a scale model of the Episode One pod racing Pepsi Machine. Stoked to find this channel an see some of the background work into the pepsi ad campaign.

Gracias!!! Rob Bottin es un Maestro 💚🖤💛

He has been the protégé of Rick Baker who was the protégé of Dick Smith, isn't it beautiful ?, generations of genius, sadly stopped by CGI.

Why haven’t Disney bought him yet?

The faceless apparition appeared in House on Haunted Hill 1999 remake.

too bad my left speaker isnt working

Reminds me of Red from “That 70’s Show” 😂😂😂😂😂😂.

Great job. You nailed it. :)

this video is a work of history and art.

Thank you for helping make marfalump. He has brought me much joy

Kind of wish marphalump was an unlockable character for Star Wars racers

Where is this from? Can't find a Making of' on any DVDs!!

There was a sequel being made for E.T. that would've featured evil aliens looking for E.T. that are described as sinister versions of his race. I'm guessing that since this movie turned into E.T., this character would've been those evil aliens

I'm guessing they might've used these for the bad aliens in the cancelled E.T. sequel
