It's difficult to wrap my mind around such a massive and intricate movie prop. I agree with a previous post, they should give tours, it would be a money maker. Thanks for sharing this place and the history of the events.

[@ExploringtheUnbeatenPath]

Thanks for watching! Perhaps one day! I know in other countries they do this :)

[@mattmattelig]

it seems like this movie set was built better than the new high rises being built in some of the ghost cities. Thanks Bob for another great adventure.

[@ExploringtheUnbeatenPath]

At least the architecture of the buildings are much cooler. Really loved this style. Thanks for always checking out :)

[@robertbraun7155]

That was my exact first thought. It's mindblowing.

[@hahomy]

Great video Bob really enjoyed this 👍 thanks for sharing 👍 amazing that they built all that just for a movie , and even weirder that there was war one side and life goes on on the side , brilliant video, very sad though really xx

[@petershen6924]

The 800 was a great movie. During the production, the current communist PRC government had a problem with a scene of raising the flag of Republic of China (which is the government in Taiwan today). But that was a significant event of the battle. Eventually, that scene was reduced to minimum. But it caused much delay to be released.

[@wymmyw8744]

of course they would.. any country would.. even more so in an important scene like the one shown in the movie.. same thing would happen to confederate flag in the US.. i bet it would be ok to depict it falling in any country but not if the movie depicting it standing on the ground like that..

[@petershen6924]

@@wymmyw8744somewhat agree. However, there is another aspect to this story: the uses of Confederate Flag in official settings by Southern States were, for at least a century after the Civil War, tolerated by the federal government as a sign of reconciliation. US military bases were named after Confederate generals. National guard units from Southern States proudly presented themselves as former Confederate units and put their Civil War battle streamers on their flags. Chinese traditions, on the other hand, tend to justify the legitimacy of the current dynasty by demonizing the previous one.

It was a fun explore! Thanks for always checking 😁 Next one is a power station

[@jepolch]

@@ExploringtheUnbeatenPath When I was a young teen my friends and I would explore this abandoned power station in our town. I was huge and deep. The turbine hall was flooded but you could still see the tops of them. We started to climb the chimney, but the iron rails were rusted and breaking and there was no cage to keep you from falling. We didn't climb it. Some of my best memories!

[@ExploringtheUnbeatenPath]

@@jepolch Sounds amazing. I really love eploring these big massive industrial sites. There's a lot to see. And those chineys are very dangerous to climb yes, glad you didn't.

A lot of decay for the time it was abandoned, but a very nice find indeed Bob.

[@Metalstacker]

Wauw, wat gaaf om dit zo te zien. Leuk ook met de extra info, maar dat komt natuurlijk wel goed met een film die over de geschiedenis gaat haha. Shanghai was in die tijd wel heel mooi :)

[@ExploringtheUnbeatenPath]

Prachtig ja! Parijs in 1900 was bijvoorbeeld ook prachtig. Tegenwoordig is alles een stuk minder mooi helaas. Bedankt weer voor de comment😁

[@klintharder2155]

What was that tunnel mock up in the middle of the room @13:21 . Did you go in it and take some video? Maybe used as a tunnel scene in the movie...???

[@whybotherha1021]

I watch this movie..epic af...i didnt know it was all set. damnn.

[@ExploringtheUnbeatenPath]

Crazy right? I loved the movie too!

[@petershen6924]

2:03 the building was not overrun by Japanese despite of overwhelming firepower because it was located in an odd location. It was right next to Shanghai International Settlement, which was under control of western powers at that time. At the time when precision munition was not invented, collateral damage was a very high possibility, so Japanese Army limited its firepower on the building. That was why the building stayed in Chinese hand for so long until supply ran out.

[@ExploringtheUnbeatenPath]

Yes, I explain that too :)

[@robmoonlite961]

Epic!! Thanks Bob wow

[@petershen6924]

This is really a surprise to me. Since China's entertainment industry loves making "sci-fi" WW2 productions. This is really a great movieset for such propose. But I am glad the owner of this place did not make it available for such propose. Those "sci-fi anti Japanese" TV shows were of so low quality that serious researchers and last remaining WW2 veterans condemned.

[@yin3331]

The United States can make sci-fi anti-German superhero dramas.It's more exaggerated and unrealistic than the shows made in China.

[@richmondlau5945]

didnt know about the movie. going to go check it out

[@viperscot1]

[@bender7565]

Huge balls Robert! There are certain countries where I am concerned about violating something I don't even know about. China is on that short list, didn't see it posted but I don't think that would give you cover in China. Well done and I love the episodes where I am nervous for you.

[@ExploringtheUnbeatenPath]

Thanks again Bender! I guess I'm in less trouble than in the USA in most places when I get caught to be honest. And in some places I will have big troubles in both nations :')

[@Cadadadry]

I can't stand all those buildings beeing unused and decaying over time. Why ?...

[@rickarnoud5770]

Because it's build all just for show... as fast and cheap as possible, those buildings are not designed to house people in them so they are useless... But i understand your opinion about it, its just a waste of land and lot's off money... in my eyes a gov only should give permission on term's so it's useable when they are done, but ye it's the money that matters nothing more, it's crazy that this is even legal, they just filmed the movie earned there profit, and took there expensive film gear and just abandoned it to letting it all rot away like it is just some dust...

[@TattooedTraveler]

Damn it, I missed the premiere, that was my favorite Chinese movie as well.
