I liked how they pointed out "9 seconds in 7 days..." as if to make him feel bad, bur no... It just illustrates the reason why VFX house have dozens, if not a couple hundred, artists working on several scenes at any given time and why post production can take up to a year to finish up.

I heard that the producers were very concerned that the 80's movie would look still look good on VHS and the 24" TVs we all had back then, so possibly that made the big box effect preferable. I quite like the effect TBH, it wasn't a tired visual cliche that we'd all seen before and it looked OK for the Dune universe which had some tech that was miles ahead of ours... but had also iirc outlawed any sort of digital computers. It looks kinda analogue.

Love it! I always adored the shield sequences in 1984 Dune and you guys nailed the feel of them here. And those cardboard ones? Totally gonna cosplay that at a comic con! As for updating an old effect, one of my favourites has always been the Enterprise warp drive and how each film and TV show tackles it differently - almost like a different actor getting to play the same role, but with the same key attributes, in this case, stretched ship, rainbow trails, vanishing point pop. As a teen I liked STII and STIII the most, possibly thanks to ILM's model work, but looking back now, ST TMP is probably my favourite. I thought it was a bit OTT at the time, but I really like it now. I think a satisfying warp is about striking the right balance between spectacle, grace and even a bit of nature. Oh yeah, and a good whoosh sound effect is mandatory. Keep it classy Corridor!

[@sophisticatednebula4236]

I was thinking about the problems Matt was dealing with, and I'm wondering if approaching the project with a classic animator's mindset would've helped. I do 2D animation and I can tell you with a lot of confidence that going frame by frame isn't the most efficient when you're dealing with solid shapes. If I had to approach this, I'd use "pose to pose", followed by breakdowns. If anyone from Corridor is reading this I'd love to hear about why some of these decisions were made!! Great work either way!!

[@sophisticatednebula4236]

@niduoe stre On FILM that too!!! Pure torture

[@ikannunaplays]

I've used the pose to pose method and it's the fastest way, when the transition from one pose to another doesn't quite look right you just add another pose in between to correct it. In some places you may find you need a pose for every frame but those moments will be far between the bulk

Pose to pose is indeed the best way to animate frame by frame, if you messed up somehow, you still have the main poses to work and reference with

I still think y'all should do a version where you see the view from inside the shield. If we see that much visual distortion from the outside, there should be a little bit of projected distortion frim the inside. You could even play around with it through creative liberty and decide whether the character insude the shield can see their opponent's shield the way that the audience does, or if the view from inside actually softens the harsh crystalline properties of the opponent's shield. I dk, maybe I'm thinking too far into it, but it could be a cool concept for a video

All this did was make me really really need to see a collab between Corridor Crew and Film Riot. Please make that happen. Maybe have both crews do a dance off to the Turbulent Displace Man song...that would be the most fire thing ever.

[@unmannedav]

Agreed!!

[@deadman-zc5ro]

14:55 turbulent displacement song we got a Film Riot fans here

I just got the chance to watch the newest Dune. Still needing to see the original. This was cool to see. Great work!

[@TheQuetzalcoatl76]

Very nice video, i loved the old cubic shield effect, it was very original!

[@Concreteowl]

I actually like the Lynch shields, they remind me of Marcel Duchamp's Nude Descending a Staircase No. 2. Sadly they don't hide the obviously replaced stunt actors but it is unique.

[@sablesoul]

I actually love Lynch's shield design. I definitely don't think they are for Dune but it's one of the few concepts of future combat that really does seem foreign.

[@derPetunientopf]

Onestly i think it looks horrible in the old movie but i have nothing else but respect for the artists. Even though its such a slow process to create those scenes, the fights are still fucking long to just watch the end result.

[@SabbaticusRex]

I agree . Especially when everything just looks so 'samey' these days . These kids are being condescending and elitist about a groundbreaking process that took over a year to make back when all they had was 1980s tech .. AND the work was unique unlike every single project these guys do which is just pop culture and movies re-done . So much respect to those original artists .

[@incog.nyto.]

@@SabbaticusRex Bro... it makes the scene objectively difficult to read. The movements, the actors' faces, the tension, all of it hidden behind layers of weird blocky reflective shapes. The idea was a crazy one, and props to the original artists, but making art is also realizing your own mistakes, no matter how much time you sunk into a project. These 1984 shots might have been an incredible technical feat, it does not make the film better for it.

[@SabbaticusRex]

@@incog.nyto. I suppose them just making shield sounds with their mouths would have been better .

[@SnifferSock]

@@SabbaticusRex They could have just made them glow like every other old sci-fi and spent their budget elsewhere...

[@Neruomir]

I did notice in the new movie that it's kinda hard to tell what the shield does or what it can or can't do or when it's on or not. Kinda important as in Dune laser weapons create nuke explosions when hitting a shield and shields attract worms etc.

[@vmoutsop]

Thank you, I’ve been saying that a lot of the original is better than the new version and you guys are the only channel that like the original also.

[@bonelesskebab2041]

It would be GREAT if you guys did a tier list of the hardest VFX shots ever achieved in movies! This Dune effect would definitely be on the top 10 or maybe 5 for example..

[@jakobvanklinken]

It's pretty difficult to quantify such a thing. How do you compare two shots and decide which one is "hardest"? What if one was made by 2 people and the other by 150? Or one was practical and the other one digital? How do you account for the fact that what might be difficult in 2008 can be a lot easier with newer softwear in 2009? By that logic, weren't all the hardest vfx shots in the 30s and 40s, because they didn't have any of the tools we have today?

[@interdimensionalsteve8172]

Checkout The Movies That Made Us on Netflix, the Jurassic Park episode. Sounds like they sure did some crazy sh*t :)

[@temporalcooking1918]

Please do a modern version of The Last Starfighter final battle and Death Blossom sequence. Totally love that you all are revisiting the 80s and revealing the level of effort that was involved in creating special effects in movies 35+ years ago.

[@machina_spirit]

The dramatic sound effect when Matt said it just one shot was really good lol

[@rubeng370]

43 second opening would have won the Oscar instantly if those effects were in the movie
