Behind the Scenes: Kung Fury Short Film

[@ether92]

Take note, Hollywood. This is how you make a movie. With heart, friendship and love for the art. LazerUnicorn deserve all the praise and support they can get and I'm glad they managed to make such a great movie. Here for a greater sequel.

[@davidthomas9190]

ether92 You're not wrong. My fave movie of all time is Aliens, when you watch documentaries about the making of that movie you find out the cast were all sent on marine boot camp training and by the time they shot the movie they were a close knit team.

[@alexanderwizard763]

exactly! the difference between a movie that has a heart and soul made with passion vs a movie made only as a cashgrab

[@thequalitycomedian7842]

I pray that King Fury 2 isn’t ruined by the big budget, if it’s as fun and weird as the short it should be great. Plus, you’ve got a ton of famous actors from the 80’s making an appearance so this is just gonna be a nostalgia trip for the ages.

[@cksskc412]

David Sandberg will direct the next film too, so I really doubt that it will not be great, or even greater than before

[@ulrichkalber9039]

sometimes a low budget is a good thing, the Italien western movies had very simple music because they could not afford an orchestra. That way the music was not as bombastic as in the high-budget hollywood-productions, but the Emotion was much better.

[@hazardeur]

@@ulrichkalber9039 Dude, many of the western movies had some of big budget composers like Moriconne etc....

Not gonna lie, Kung Fury has been and continues to be the catalyst to a big chunk of my bandcamp collection. No joke, you guys absolutely nailed the 80's aesthetic, and then went above and beyond with an otherworldly story, amazing cinematography, and the Hoff. Holy shit, how you guys managed to reel him in, I have no clue but well done, well done on all fronts! Kung Fury is Legend 👌

[@SMILESZ2]

They understandably they couldn't put all of it into a behind the scenes like this, but there's so, so much more stuff that we all could hear. I think the big, big reason they chose to do Kung Fury 2 THEIR way and not the Hollywood way is because all the memories and experiences they had during the making of KF1 is... Invaluable. Can't fucking wait for King Fury 2, the few things you told us about it back then still has me so goddamn excited!
