Adam Savage Tours Peter Jackson's Movie Prop Collection!

[@tested]

Watch Peter Jackson show Adam Savage his original King Kong stop-motion armature: kzbin.info/www/bejne/m3rFiqaPpr-rhrM

[@mjfeuerstein]

legends among legends. epic.

[@WilliamSwift123]

Idk if you have adams contact info but please if you can let him know that the panda suit is not from just some commercial its from The Amazing Panda Adventure that came out in 1995 starring Stephen Lang, if he could let peter know that would be dope. It was one of my favorite childhood movies kinda sad shes just sitting in his collection lost and not actually loved by someone who truly loved the film. I hope you see this message, it would really be a shame to have The Amazing Panda continue to go Unknown and forgotten.

[@axjagfilms]

Daleks and Vogons

[@SerHuntsReviews]

This video needs to be called a prop "Hal 9000" viewing. Not a tour of Peter Jacksons studio.

[@spurgo]

yeah - was sad that we didn't see the dinosaur :(

[@jsullivan2112]

Was just thinking the exact same thing.

[@HariSeldon913]

Seriously. The gold Dalek was prominently featured in the thumbnail and it wasn't even mentioned.

[@doddsino]

@@spurgo God creates dinosaurs God destroys dinosaurs God creates man Man destroys God Man creates dinosaurs Man creates HAL HAL destroys man Dinosaurs eat HAL

[@dimitreze]

Now we want a 2 hours video, thank you.

[@codyt821]

AMEN! It's a freaking treasure trove of movie goodness in there! Just wow

[@lifted-Don]

Yes cuz 7 mins on a damn camera lense wasn't to fascinating

[@breakingames7772]

Why? So we can spend 2 hours looking at a lens, a rope from Indiana Jones, and a shoelace?

[@dennisjansson6239]

Agree. I wanna see every movie & tv prop Peter Jackson has & wich movies & tv-shows they come from. 💙

[@samtompk]

That wasn't much of a tour. More of an extended look at one movie's props...

[@torpedohippo8493]

Pretty much just like all other Tested "tours"

[@WereCatf]

"Adam Savage Tours Peter Jackson's Movie Prop Collection" -- What, he only fiddled with the HAL9000? That's not a tour! I mean, it is a very cool piece and all, but from the title I thought we'd actually get a tour, seeing way more props than that.

[@two-face1041]

Nita Vesa part 1

[@thehorriblebright]

Nita Vesa Could be a tested premium thing.

[@Trickshot72]

Way too short. Needs to be at lease twenty four hours long.

[@minusxero]

Whoa now. Whoooooooooooa. You're being a bit ridiculous. Twenty-four hours is nowhere near the minimum for a video like this. I'll settle for nothing less than a week-long documentary of everything here, with in-depth history of the prop, insights into the build, and personal experiences involving the movie or show or whatnot in question. Hell you could do a day-long video on Peter Jackson's Dalek alone.

[@WereCatf]

Hell, I'd actually watch that!

[@SuperGamli]

This is probably part one, of many

[@youenn8168]

We need a big trilogy of adventure discovering all of this. I heard this dude is pretty good at it !

[@Trickshot72]

Atticus Hahaha..........With luck it would be in my Christmas stocking.

[@1kaaa]

4:03 I legitimately thought that girl in the background was a human prop.

[@awmperry]

1kaaa Great horror movie-style reveal, though. :-D

[@darkmerrygoround]

i was thinking "where's that girl from" then she starts blinking and walks away :)))

[@seigeengine]

So, moral of the story, if you ever get rich and have a prop collection, hire people to stand really still in it and then suddenly move.

[@Somethingafw]

haha you are not the only one.

[@Bish186]

1kaaa I nearly wrote this. Im paused at 4:03 lmao!! She blinked I was like oh that's a real woman 😂

[@3volved]

"Adam Savage Looks at Peter Jackson's Hal Movie Prop"

[@paperclip9558]

3volved exactly. What a click bait.

[@two-face1041]

3volved it's only part 1

[@MsStonedAgin]

Yeah, for as cool as it is, the Hal prop is relatively small and simplistic; I don't think they should of spent so much time lingering over it. Wish we could of looked over some of the other props.

[@RobertAnthonyPitera]

The thing is that actual props, let alone hero props, from 2001 are so freaking rare that it's amazing to see them at all. Most of the props, sets, costumes and models for this landmark 1968 film were purposely destroyed by director Stanley Kubrick to keep them from being used in other movies. Recently the Aries 1B lunar lander came up for auction and was purchased by AMPAS for $344,000. But I totally agree this has to be multiple parts - and I'd actually pay for a Tested sub just for that. I mean when have you ever seen Thunderbirds hero props?!?

[@awmperry]

Robert Anthony Pitera Yeah, more of the Thunderbirds would have been nice.

[@volrath__]

I could watch these guys talk props all day! Please do more from inside Peter's cave!

[@Floyd1138]

all those props and we get to see like 5 :(

[@theomerca1371]

Can see a lot on those pics taken during the interview : www.tested.com/art/movies/588144-photo-gallery-peter-jacksons-movie-prop-collection/

[@reallymiish]

Ah, ah, ah...you didn't say the magic word.

[@stangoings4160]

PLEEASE!!!

[@Damstraight68]

Adam savage tours one prop from Peter Jackson's collection

[@ripvanstinkle]

I'm going to need about a dozen more videos from Peter Jackson's collection.

[@two-face1041]

ripvanstinkle there's more coming

[@All3Web]

A 2001 guy here- Hal's "eye" was steady state and did not blink or vary in intensity. Also, the silver tool was to gain entry to the "brain room" but not to do the disabling - that was another tool. It's documented in one of my 2001 books that the tool was an off the shelf tool adapted for use on the film.

[@alexstrouse6333]

the lady in the background scared me lol i thought she was a manican

[@mangobooom1]

Alex Strouse she scared the hell out of me!

[@visualdragon]

I was just about to post that! Creeped me right out. LOL

[@hallie6921]

Alex Strouse I had to view the comments to see if anyone was freaked out like I was.

[@MrIpodlover12]

Lol it's norm's wife danica, and yeah it was creepy

[@TheBushdoctor68]

*mannequin.

[@WMfin]

Would like to see more.

[@snesnerd3988]

no

[@WeirdSeagul]

they can split this tour into 300 episodes :/

[@manchesterunitedno7]

Would you like to know more?

[@tomboz777]

I'm from Buenos Aires and I say show them all!!

[@theomerca1371]

Yon can get about 140 photos of his props on this site www.tested.com/art/movies/588144-photo-gallery-peter-jacksons-movie-prop-collection/ :)

[@TheKangarooBeard]

Adam Savage Tours Peter Jackson's Hal 9000 computer from 2001: A Space Odyssey.

[@ReeceConrad]

FYI, I watched some scenes to confirm that the light on HAL does NOT blink at all. It's a steady glow as he talks.

[@StubbornProgrammer]

Thanks for looking that up. I remembered it being steady but I don't trust my own memory!

[@RogerLB3]

I remember being creeped out, not only by that super calm voice, but the red staring eye. Never blinking, as if we were looking into a palantir.

[@johnthemachine]

yea the whole concept is the unblinking emotionless eye matched with the calm unnerving voice; a subtlety PJ sorely lacks in his films. which makes sense now that i hear he loves 2001 and didnt remember/pick up on that

[@SecretSquirrelFun]

Thank you for confirming how the light behaves. Much appreciated 🐿🙂

[@tetepeb]

I have never been so jealous of another person then i am of Adam right now, first he calls Peter Jackson his friend! Second he has meet Peter Jackson and got a tour of his private collectiom! When i was nine years old me and my older brothers watched a pirated-vhs-version of Bad Taste with like Bulgarian subtitles so we duct-taped over them on our Tv because we couldnt help too look down on them because we where used to reading subtitles because we are from Sweden. After the film it hade the "Good Taste made Bad Taste" documentary where you follow Peter as he shows early films, marquetts and stuff from the making of Bad Taste and how he and his mates made the film. Watching that made a huge impact on my love of movies and sparked me too wanting too do it myself, sadly i have not gone on to make movies but i write scripts as a hobby and it brings me much joy in my other pretty bleak life. Love Adams collection, love Peter Jackson, his films and his "behind the scenes" features on his dvd´s and blu-ray´s.

[@lulluedge9457]

please for the love of god give us more of this

[@stevenr6397]

why is this video not abot two hours long!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@steinfliege9912]

Steven Rollings trueeee

[@darjeeliing8579]

because two hours of messing around with a hal 9000 prop would be very boring.

[@GuyWithAnAmazingHat]

Feels like the tested crew was too in awe with the collection and forgot to record stuff. Too bad Adam doesn't watch Doctor Who, that Dalek is in great condition at the back.

[@robadams8057]

Yeah, I wanted to see the Dalek.

[@kevinreinhardt1]

When you have a jurassic park raptor animatronic but spend the entire video showing off a robot eye.

[@thehandlesticks66]

fuck ass off, HAL is way cooler

[@RainyDayCollectibles]

Damn, when you get called a "Fuck ass" you know the day isn't going to be worth starting.

[@adryelyel1794]

I swear I was just waiting for him to move on to the raptors from JP3 and he kept on going on and on about the HAL 9000 eye's red dot gimmick, like what the fuck it's just an eye calm down Peter Jackson.

[@matthewlivingston3168]

The thumbnail was cooler than the whole segment.

[@CarlosFontes]

This made me almost cry. Peter Jackson is living his best life and you can tell it all makes him so happy

[@collectingsoulz1435]

Not much of a tour.

[@Gerald5000]

I'm sure there will be more.

[@nyrangersfan6325]

Gerald5000 there better be, or else we'll riot!

[@Virtual_brain]

This video should last 1 hour at least :C

[@2nd3rd1st]

Well, "tours" and "collection" are words that are maybe a bit too grand for what we see here. Let's go with "examins" and "item".

[@two-face1041]

2nd3rd1st only part 1

[@RichardMajor86]

It's not really a tour when you only look at like one thing

[@fakjbf3129]

I wonder if Peter ever considers that one day someone is going to have a collection just like this and they are going to have props from the Lord of the Rings in it because of the impact it had on them

[@mennoscholten6839]

How is that movie called from that creature at 0:17 that thing with a saw

[@UnstableVoltage]

It's a Scavenger from "Screamers" with Peter Weller.

[@mennoscholten6839]

thanks

[@nyrangersfan6325]

Fakjbf of course, Lord of the Rings is the best movie ever made! I have a few props from that film but nothing major like a sword or anything like that. Either just set dressing or background props. But I'm dying to see Peter Jackson's LOTR props! They better show that! Lol

[@Cydonia2020]

The specially made tool from 2001 is not the tool used to shut HAL down, but is the key Dave Bowman used to unlock the hatch to access HAL's 'brain' chamber.

[@call_me_mad1236]

I really wanted this to be longer - there were so many things in the room to talk about uuuggghhh

[@two-face1041]

Maddie - more is coming

[@BoshMind]

He has the Panda Cheese costume... Dear god...

[@louiswright8282]

There's more

[@McRambro]

Never say NO to Panda.

[@Fiskekakemannen]

Good to knows Adam got to tour the collection, like the title said... Would be alot better if the video captured some of the tour aswell, and not just one item.. :)

[@two-face1041]

Bjørnar Haugen more coming

[@lostinspace2390]

almost 2 minutes in and they're still stuck on Hal 9000's eye

[@lostinspace2390]

2 and counting

[@lostinspace2390]

4:20

[@PhatMan96]

Anyone else think the girl at 3:50 was a prop?

[@Nexus42]

She looks around and walks off, pretty sure she's not a prop...

[@PhatMan96]

true, but i was staring at her for a few seconds trying to figure out what movie she was from, and then she moved.

[@Slider2732]

She was from the movie called 'Life'. The scene is where a guy on the internet is watching a video and then sees someone he thinks he should recognise from a film...'should recognise' being the key element of the film. It's all similar to the woman in the red dress from The Matrix. On reading a comment to his thoughts from a total stranger, several things about 'Life' click into place :)

[@EXTREME-DIARRHEA-BLASTING]

JD Courtney I have diarrhea.

[@AleksandrMotsjonov]

her appearance was quiet creepy =)

[@XTpF4vaQEp]

7 MINUTES? Stop teasing me... Would like to se a 2 hours ver!

[@BLThackrey]

or the peter Jackson cut ( 9 hours in 3 parts )

[@thelavian4481]

+Lord B.L Thackrey LMAO!

9 hours of the eye ?

[@BlobVanDam]

This video is such a prop-tease.

[@TheQcMad]

"tours" only looks at 3 props. I wanted to see the jurassic park props :(

[@achuck4321]

There better be at least 10 more episodes

[@terrysilver5886]

SOOOOOOO much more of this please! This can't be the only footage you have of Adam and Petey Jackson

[@Jpetersson]

MORE! I could watch days of this!

[@JurassicCollectables]

great video please say you have plenty more of these. Id love to see/hear more on the JP3 Raptors. Animatronics last stand

[@Tallacus]

and some V Rex marquettes from king kong ;) well if I was him that would definitely be part of my collection

[@reallymiish]

Glad to see another avid JP fan.

[@reallymiish]

Holy crap dude your channel... SUBBED.

[@TheQcMad]

JurassicCollectables I LOVE DINOSAURS

[@JurassicCollectables]

Ah thank you! I subbed yours back :D

[@absolute_erwin]

Creepy girl at the background 3:50

[@Straylight4299]

What's creepy about having a cute girl on standby in you mancave? Wait - that sounded wrong...

[@xorumin]

I was pretty sure that girl was a prop

[@GlennVanspauwen]

It's Danica, Norm's wife :-)

[@Straylight4299]

Glenn Vanspauwen Lucky guy :)

[@megatryn]

That lens actually looks quite stock. The bit on the back protrudes into the body of the camera and one had to lock the mirror up to shoot. This was the only way they could do such a lens without aspherical lenses inside. This might also be why the flashlight seems focused as one puts it right up to the back of the lens because the film plane i.e. focus point is right up to the lens, only allowing for the shutter to come inbetween. If I remember correctly, Mr. Kubrick, was quite the photo gekk, and this lens was quite rare, so he might have had a say into this choice. But that's just speculation on my part.

[@Gorbyrev]

My favourite movie maker of all time - more please! PJ is a proper enthusiast's enthusiast.

[@MrDukeSilverr]

omg they are friends, how cool is that?

[@silverbackwrites]

So when do we get a full tour of Peter's prop collection?

[@oAPXo]

Came here for the Dalek, left with disappointment.

[@soppdrake]

oAPXo Procrastinate!

[@RetroBret]

Same.

[@pixelcrafttutorials7181]

Same

[@lennonscat]

I find it hilarious that these 2 spend so much time on the HAL prop and are so intrigued... With a lens and a light..... Peter Jackson is such a wonderful talent making and building his props and steady cams in the early days with Bad Taste..... To see them studying this prop for over 2 minutes is just ironic..... Love it

[@Art_911]

I think the general consensus is.. More please :D

[@two-face1041]

James S only part 1

[@dylanpritchard4981]

I could listen to Adam Savage and Peter Jackson talk about props and gadgets and films ALL DAY

[@BroboBrain]

Not much of a tour but still a great video.

[@Dingdongtime]

Did I just watch Peter Jackson bond with Adam Savage over one of the actual Hal 9000s from Kubrick's 2001? Yes I did.

[@matt09ward]

please tell me you filmed more than this

[@kevincozens6837]

I hope we get to see a proper tour of the collection in an upcoming video.

[@gergalurg]

Tour? You use that word, but I do not think it means what you think it means.

[@johannesdolch]

How is this video 7 minutes long ? I see at least 7 hours of talking material in the background. Adam you really have to do more stuff with Peter. He is such a terrific guy.

[@JenHurler]

I wish this vid was like 40 minutes long. What a warehouse to get lost in!

[@sebastianstraubel8852]

Please, tell me this is just a teaser for more to come?! Damn, I'd even pay some money to see HOURS of Peter Jackson and Mr. Savage talking and showing off this treasure collection. There was so much I spotted in the background... lots of Phil Tippet's stuff, the Zuul maquette (or actual stop-motion puppet), items from Stan Winston former conference room. Jaw-dropping stuff! :-D

[@wadeslovick2815]

1:14 You gotta get a fleshlight of some sort.

[@robh8156]

5 minutes on HAL? Please make more of these. There's so much more to explore!

[@papaquonis]

Omg, that's the panda from the panda cheese commercials! They're hilarious, I absolutely recommend looking them up!

[@papaquonis]

Never say no to Panda!

[@chrisvighagen]

PapaQ Turkish advert that won an award for its unique style. Love it!

[@papaquonis]

It's actually Egyptian afaik. But it deserves all the awards it may have won!

[@chrisvighagen]

Hey, your right, sorry about that. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Never_Say_No_to_Panda

[@InXLsisDeo]

There is also a full size Dalek.

[@tylerlynch6491]

Peter is such an awesome geek with a real passion for cinema. A true favourite director.

[@FreazyTek]

wow,very interesting but i think i speak for all of us if i say we wanted a longer video.Will there be another video?

[@Kayakasaurus]

Show me the dinosaurs!!!!

[@louiswright8282]

Show me the Dalek!!!!!

[@AndyM65]

Edit ..... Adam Savage Tours 1 prop

[@yunggypsy7462]

I bet there's so many gems in that collection, PLEASE DO MORE!!

[@joansmith69]

So with it being a Dalek there, that must mean that he's taken on the task of directing an episode of Doctor Who, right? RIGHT?!?!

[@2small4theMall]

John Smith I think it's already been comfirmed. But he probably had the dalek before anyway

[@Floyd1138]

6:25 Beethoven bust from A Clockwork Orange

[@moongiggler]

oh and by tours do you mean not a tour at all and just one item in too much detail and nothing else really covered at all? another great video guys :(

[@eddyk3]

First Tested video I have been excited to watch in months. Needs to be a 50 part series.

[@harrvey]

Wait, did Peter Jackson just say Flesh light?

[@ali-ej6rv]

You’re telling me all those Cool props aswell as a literal *Dalek* and they spend majority of the video on the eye.

[@cookiesontoast9981]

Well i was hoping to actually see everything... but cool video anyway

[@_Hal_9000_]

It was nice to meet you, Adam Savage.

[@pinguinamsuedpol2953]

Peter Jackson should do another exhausting movie trilogy soon... he really decreased weight when filming the Middle Earth stuff... look at him now...

[@_Hal_9000_]

Please more. I need a closer look on that Hal!

[@baze_personal]

Or you could show the collection instead of a minuscule piece.

[@seanmaib8229]

When you put a propmaker for a movie and a filmmaker, this is what you get! Way too awesome!

[@Toxicrafa]

OMG at 3:50 I though that girl was a prop until she blinked !!!!!

[@G8GTJav]

Wish there had been more. His collection looks amazing.

[@dylanstump3566]

Somehow LOTR wasn't brought up.

[@thehandlesticks66]

God forbid directors have interests other than their own work.

[@pepper_garcia8248]

As soon as they backed away from the case and saw a little bit more of the props in the background, I'm like I SEE A DARLEK!

[@PirateSometimes]

more excited about seeing his prop collection than meeting Peter Jackson?

[@TheDropForged]

Mugiwara Ricky well Adam did say he was his friend.

[@angelabird8481]

I could live in that room for the rest of my life and still be fully entertained by all the pieces in there

[@lordcrumb07]

Adam came to New Zealand? damn, would have been awesome if he did an autograph signing.

[@ThomasMeatball]

Could've come to Armageddon for a Q+A!

[@AClown]

lordcrumb07 yeah New Stealing because y'all steal everything

[@joeyhopkins2999]

that was the shortest 7 minutes of my life!!! WE NEED MORE!

[@nekro6897]

Tour? More like a super infocus documentary about a plate with a light on it.

[@bigtank2185]

IS THERE MORE TO COME FROM THIS COLLECTION!? Sorry for yelling, it looks like an amazing collection! :)

[@reizayin]

0:27 I was sent here by a man that would have said a "wide angel lens."

[@williampollard8347]

The blinking must b n ur head. The light is stationary when HAL speaks. This is such a strong visual n the film. Such power.

[@piperdoug428]

Peter needs to get back out there and start Silmarilion, he's starting to get a bit soft in parts again, lol. sorry Mr Jackson.

[@ELKFILMZ]

It's so awesome that these movies inspired him to have successful career and now with the money he made he is buying the same props that inspired him, now that is passion my friends.

[@MrFloppyHare]

Not quite a "tour", though.... :-(

Nikon fan here: The extended back of the lens was actually needed for the lens to work properly. It was only compatible with cameras with proper mechanical mirror lock up, like F3 or F4. Today you can easily use the lens on a mirrorless cameras like Z6 or Z7 or any other using the right adaptor.

[@HRRRRRDRRRRR]

Gotta grab that fleshlight!

[@Seraphim121212]

Frank ... so I'm not the only one who heard that.

[@AClown]

Frank New Zealand accent

[@HRRRRRDRRRRR]

kevin Rudd Wow really? I totally had zero idea.

[@AClown]

Frank well now you know, little guy!!#LackOfADickMakesYouSadAndPathetic

[@mya_the_fangirl6317]

OH MY GOSH I WAS JUST WATCHING THE HOBBIT YESTERDAY. This is awesome!

[@Tegs009]

I love how quickly Adam has a flashlight ready

[@bombaya85]

What if, Tested made this a series? Adam Savage tours (insert celebrity) prop collection? That would be awesome!

[@jimwillis4873]

so amazing, what an opportunity to see all that history.

[@Wixhael]

Am I the only one who sees the Dalek? My respect for Peter Jackson just went way up.
