Another movie with Tom Cruise in a scifi genre..I'm digging it! Want to vote on what I should watch next? Click here! www.patreon.com/jamesvscinema THE FOUNTAIN will be uploaded Thursday! Enjoy the day!

oh man, the fountain is a trip

Should definitely watch the patriots if you liked the last samurai

[@john0constantine]

The fountain? Awesome, I love Aronowski's work so much. The Fountain is one of my all time favs.

[@hernankot]

U called it right..it looks like the mandalorian sime they used the san techniques...wrapping the sets with a screen and projecting background images creating accurate light atmosphere...u rock!

[@lanceyalonso3446]

kingdom of heaven

[@slaid3876]

I worked on this film! The lighting looks great because we used projections rather than green screen. So all the clouds/light was actually there on the day. Everything you see, the actors also saw while filming. Much like Mandalorian.

[@JamesVSCinema]

That’s awesome!! Working on this set must’ve been fun!!

[@slaid3876]

@@JamesVSCinema it was definitely a unique experience. I didn’t work on the whole show, just the parts they filmed in New Orleans (St Francisville actually). We filmed the scenes in the floating apartment, desert clone fight and interior/exterior Morgan Freeman hideout. I worked with props. It was so fun! Also Tom Cruise is a class act. Said hello and thanked everyone for working hard. He did this every day.

[@ryanhalawani2637]

@@slaid3876 That's so cool. Can't imagine how amazing it must of been to work on this film. Also, how gratifying it must be to see it on the big screen. Also, I forgot to mention, but you certainly did a fantastic job. The probs in this film are fantastic and some of the best looking in any modern sci-fi film. I especially love the very sleek and streamlined white aesthetic of the drone and the gun.

[@cosmic7845]

The sounds of this movie are my absolute favorite, especially the drones.

[@antoniozapanta5524]

You are not the only one dude, Olga Kurylenko is just breathtaking. BTW, It's a good thing you mentioned "The Mandalorian" because that clean look you are talking about is the same technology they used in the Disney series. They used the same virtual set which uses LED screens instead of your usual green screen background. The difference is that with the virtual set, they can achieve natural lighting without using VFX and can also benefit from avoiding film location trips.

[@JamesVSCinema]

That’s for that!! Loved that they used that here too!

[@TimothySnowman]

It wasn't quite the same. It wasn't LED screens, it was all front projection, but it was absolutely the predecessor for "The Volume" used in the Mandalorian. There's some great BTS footage for this movie: kzbin.info/www/bejne/m6qrqHefr69grqc

[@michaelsegriff3362]

For lots of Olga, check out the STARZ series Magic City.

[@curtisbailey78]

@@JamesVSCinema See Timothy Snow's reply below. It wasn't *quite* the same as in The Mandalorian, but a similar overall idea.

[@mycroft16]

Well sort of. What they used here is a very early precursor of what they used on the Mandalorian. The wrapped scrims around the house set and then they went up the mountains in Hawaii and shot 360 degree footage of sunsets etc and played THAT footage back with projectors onto the scrims. It was not interactive in any way. They could design sets with it. It just provided real atmospheric lighting. What they did on Mandalorian is orders of magnitude beyond that. Using Unreal Engine to create real time lighting and interactive projections to match motion camera moves. So when the camera moves left, the projected scenery moves right. Mando's tech is freaking 3 levels beyond next level.

[@MrIamabazaba]

Hey I worked this project. Was really dope watching you react so positively. As an artist we rarely get to see how people feel about our work, so thanks for making this one!

[@romainleguillerm1913]

Director also did Tron Legacy, unique visual and good use of CG. Also, they used Vray as render engine, which is mostly used for car/industrial commercial, giving it a different vibe.

[@Mauther]

An insanely underrated movie. If you watched this on a laptop, then you have comitted a most grievous sin. I would highly recommend watching the behind the scenes. There is far less CGI than you'd think, and as others have pointed out, they are using the same tech they would later use on the Mandalorian. The advertising for this movie really hurt it. First, they advertised it as an action flick which it is clearly not. Second, they were not gonna ignore Morgan Freeman in the advertising so they ruined the first plot twist. The poem they keep repeating is Babington's Horatius: Then out spoke brave Horatius, the Captain of the Gate: “To every man upon this earth, death cometh soon or late; And how can man die better than facing fearful odds, For the ashes of his fathers, and the temples of his Gods,

[@mnemonic1363]

Yeah they're the best I've been putting people on them for years so disappointing they aren't more mainstream

For whatever reason bits of the soundtrack remind me of Mass Effect, which is on point considering it's a scifi video game with similar visual design.

God it's so fucking gooood!! My favorite scenes are when Jack is setting up the drone as a bomb - the camera panning around him and the drone, switching back and forth between that and Morgan, and close ups of Tom. SO GOOD! And obviously the scene at the end, "How can a man die better, than facing fearful odds? In the ashes of his fathers - and the temples of his Gods." So. Fucking. Good.

Also Jerry Maguire

[@n0body550]

Imo rainman is hoffmans movie

[@TheGavrael]

@@n0body550 You're definitely right. I show this film to Special Education Instruction classes. Cruise is 'all of us' who grow over the movie and Hoffman is LD persons who are still capable of function (varies by person). The film is a fanstastic example of empathy and acceptance. Not Cruise's best performance, Last Samurai or Magnolia take that cake, but perhaps the best film he is in.

[@eval7952]

[@JamesASharp]

I saw this film while it was in theaters. Not bad at all. Great reaction bro.

[@blackeyeole]

locations are real , vehicles are real , the bike was operational. the plane also moved in all directions. the light at the "house" was from a 360 camera on a mountain that rec 24/7 and the they made surrounting monitors that showed that 360 recording

[@jeffthompson9622]

I forgot that Melissa Leo was in this as the teleconferenced supervisor. She transforms herself into so many characters in so many movies! She was memorable in "Winter's Bone," which starred Jennifer Lawrence before "The Hunger Games" made her famous. It certainly led to her casting in that series.

[@mycroft16]

The director, Joseph Kosinski did Tron: Legacy as well. Which also has the very clean look you're noticing here. It's a style of his for sci-fi. The man has a gift for stunning sci-fi visuals. He also started in commercials which is probably where the commercial vibes came from. Those insane drones... for me it's the sounds they make. The sound design feels like it is really coming from them, echoing and reverberating.

[@tonatiuhnino3711]

Do the Revenant next.

[@ChrisMaxCisneros]

@Karl Zaraiva its like Birdman on Steroids

[@PaulOdontknow]

You're slowly working your way through the Andrea Riseborough oeuvre without realizing it. She's truly a chameleon. Hopefully you'll get to Possessor and the series ZeroZeroZero at some point.

[@kingfield99]

Not only Olga Kurylenko but also his team-mate in this movie Victoria (Andrea Riseborough) played Stalin's daughter in TDOS.

[@niallrussell7184]

I never felt like they needed to flesh out the scavs. Alien with absolutely overwhelming firepower turns up, wipes out humanity and the survivors have to hide under a rock, biding their time. Amazing VFX, but story is just a mishmash of Moon/Terminator/Matrix.

[@BlackbirdSJ]

The reason it might remind you of Mandalorian is they used the same technology with that background curved screen thingy

[@loveoffilm4327]

Yes, bout to say this was one of the first uses I can think of that used that tech

[@Krondon-SSR]

in 2013?

[@JamesVSCinema]

Makes sense!!

[@john0constantine]

About the CGI: you should watch a making of. They used back projection for the sky base, that is why it looks a bit like Mandalorian and that is why the lighting looks so cool. the entire surrounding is back projection.

[@Ady-rt1yu]

The Director of this movie was a VFX director before he directed feature films. His only other full feature before this was Tron 2, and the VFX in that was also stunning.

[@AndyRohleder]

One of the most underrated Movies ever! The Cast, the Music, the Cinematography, the Story, THE ENDING! This Movie is just beautyful!😁❤️

[@Bodneyblue]

Has to be one of my favourite sound tracks....adds so much.

[@ricchoder2983]

Hands down one of the best sci-fi movies so simple yet so big the cinematography the score it was great

[@starbrand3726]

It's funny that you compared the effects to the Mandalorian. They actually used similar effects. The woman looking out of the window is actually looking at a huge screen with the sky projected onto it. This is why the lighting looks so good because it's actually there and not just added in post. That's why you can see the sky in the reflections around the rooms. Tech 049 was the only one that found the oasis which is why the other Techs didn't go there.

[@michaeljonathan2899]

the reveal of them being clones, and the theme song at the end blew my mind like a stick of dynamite

[@jamesburns4456]

The Director had made this from a graphic book, that he wrote.

Next TC movie: Jack Reacher (the first one)! With Robert Duvall, Rosamund Pike, David Oyelowo and Werner Herzog

[@jeremyv3470]

The drone sound was my text notification for years!

[@foxxcop543]

The same composer who worked with Daft Punk on the score for Tron: Legacy. The main theme of this score is by M83, primarily Anthony Gonzalez who collaborated with the more “indie electronic” aspect of the score. Joseph Trapanese helped compose additional music, arrange, orchestrate, and conduct the score. Joseph Trapanese deserves to get more attention!

[@joschlunde]

Kosinski’s visual style works so well with sci-fi, and while I’m sure Top Gun will look great, it’s a shame he couldn’t get ‘The Black Hole’ or ‘Tron 3’ off the ground.

[@everausten]

Andrea Riseborough (Victoria) was also in Death of Stalin (Svetlana), and she was in Birdman as well (Laura). She's such a chameleon! ✨💛✨

[@DanielRodriguez-eh1qd]

[@TheUnknownDungeon]

I saw this movie with my girlfriend two months before she passed away. This movie brings bittersweet memories

[@SuperFurry68A]

The sound design in this movie is insane. I absolutely loved the sounds the drones made. They sounded so menacing. I know a lot of people don't like Tom, and that's okay, but I personally feel that this guy was built for science fiction. Both this and Edge of Tomorrow show how great he can be in this kind of role. This is such a great story. A very simple one, but one that's delivered almost perfectly. The scene at the end when Tech 52 meets his daughter is so amazing. The score to this movie is absolutely incredible. I've been a huge fan of M83 for many years now, but their collaboration with Joseph Trapanese knocks this one out of the park. Their "I'm Sending You Away" track is one of my all-time favourite pieces. Oh, and don't even get me started on how amazing the visuals are. Is the movie perfect? Hell, no, but it's still one of my favourite science fiction movies of all time. James, I don’t think you’re geeking out at all!

[@thomaschristopherwhite9043]

You know why this reminds you of the Mandalorian? This is one of the first movies to use projection mapping which the Mandalorian uses for everything. That's why the edges are so clean. Everything is lit by the virtual set instead of that weird haloing when you comp out a background

[@muuuzaklistener]

this movie’s soundtrack is insane

[@SmartCarGuy]

This was filmed mostly in Iceland. The scenes showing the sky around the station that they work out of, were real filmed shots from a high-level observatory in Hawaii, which is above the clouds, and then projected onto screens around the set!!!

[@ryanhalawani2637]

@@stuartspencer2161 🤣🤣 that would be fantastic. I can just imagine him standing at the door of the ship as its slowly descending to the alien world and then jumping out and screaming "DIVE!!". Also, he's an actual explorer who has gone on expeditions to Antarctica and the jungles of Burma in search of a rare orangutan so yeah would definitely be helpful.

[@MichaelSHumphrey]

One of the best things about this film is rewatching it. You’ll notice all the actor’s subtleties. Like Becca remembered more and had the same dreams as Jack. Also, I have a fantastic story about seeing this film in theaters, as there was a little boy and his father sitting in front of us. During the pool scene, when she jumps in naked, the boy goes, “Whoaaaaaaaaaa dad…..did you see that pool?!?” We all lost it, including the father.

[@Stumergeist]

I saw this movie when it popped up on a streaming service just looking for something watch and was blown away. It's a great movie and is completely slept on.

[@angrykermit3192]

I thought they went a little heavy-handed with the "Are you an effective team?" thing and it was kind of a dead giveaway that they were aliens.

[@xen0bia]

It's code words to determine if the team is deteriorating (from getting memories back) and needs to be pulled out - i.e. exterminated - and replaced by new clones. It makes sense that's in there, and a hint that something is off.

Oblivion is a criminally underrated movie. Especially the soundtrack is one of my favorites. And the visuals are amazing, I love the broken moon in the sky and that shot revealing what looks like a rock ravine to be the gap between the dirt-covered skyscrapers of a city. I agree that it would have been great to get more world-building and lore, it probably would have made for a great limited series. Funny you mentioned Glados. I always got a lot of Portal vibes from the film, maybe because of all the white aesthetics and rounded shapes...

Also, the design of the robot drones and even the TET itself are absolutely fantastic.

Jack's house in the sky was a full size set, not CGI. They'd gone to a Hawaiian Volcano and filmed HD sky for ages, morning noon and night. This was then projected on set so the house was lit naturally when filming. CGI replaced by real world effects. The thing I really loved about this movie was the coherence and consistency of the TET design aesthetic. Look at any "army" or major organisation in history, their design/iconography is consistent.

[@specialedition3585]

The tech that made the mandalorian actually came from this movie. The precursor to the “Volume” was made for this film.

[@kroberts8866]

It's a shame you aren't getting the Director's commentary with Tom Cruise and the Making of clips from the old BluRay/DVDs. This film was the ground breaker for the tech which became routine for Mandalorian. Which makes Oblivion a milestone for sets like the Abyss was for objects.

[@sntxrrr]

The visual design on this movie is fantastic, you can clearly see the director had a background in architecture. But as others have noted not at all like the virtual sets of The Mandalorian, it was a bit too early for that. It was mostly 'traditional' FX with beautiful on location shots and smart set design. The video backdrops they used on the set of the apartment can be seen as a stepping stone towards 'the volume' as used by The Mandalorian though.

It's not the CGI, it's not the Lighting; it is the acting and the writing. Olga Kurylenko was also excellent in James Bond - Quantum of Solace. She can really pull the heartstrings. She looks like a younger, thinner Catherine Zeta Jones.
