Gravity fight scenes in inception filmed by Christopher Nolan جنون المخرج كريستوفر نولان في الاخراج

That's what I love about Christopher Nolan. Want to make it look like they're in a spinning hallway? Spin a fucking hallway.

It really doesn't mean that much. CGI can cost more than pratical effects

[@Speedo1391]

Avatar had a budget of 240 Million. CGI drives up the cost more than something like that (if your're comparing proportionally), but yea, still expensive shit.

[@jayeshsinha1653]

Well I think this is really awesome and in the comments everyone has been praised enough, but I would like to give a special shout-out to the extra that JGL (Arthur) fought in the scene as I think his special effort has been totally forgotten. Like JGL, he underwent the same training and put in the same effort inside that spinning corridor and all in all his contribution in making that scene so great cannot be forgotten. So kudos to whoever you are.

[@CaptainOfGames]

Marvin Campbell is his name. He also did stunts in many of the recent James Bond movies.

[@moody4624]

He is more than an extra. He is a legit stuntman

[@chinmaybaitule1581]

I appreciate Christopher Nolan to direct this painstaking scene without CGI. Also, kudos to Joseph Gordon Levitt to do this challenging role.

[@Howlingburd19]

I honestly have a lot of respect and appreciation for Nolan on his stance of staying much more loyal to practicals instead of relying too much on CGI and digitals. One of the few people who still do that. The only CGI that was used was digitally getting rid of the wire work in the anti-gravity shots.

[@bencurtin573]

Good thing Nolan didn't direct Man of Steel, he would probably ACTUALLY destroy a city, as well as a different fucking planet, in order to make it seem real

The actual filmmaking process behind this scene is absolutely genius O.o

[@sarahknight6627]

That's amazing how they did this scene. Not really a big fan of CGI it's been over used for everything in movies; live action special effects has more a realness than CGI. Sometimes the best special effects is using the mind's perception that creates an optical illusion.

[@mohamed36057]

You are extremely right .. Nolan has confirmed in a Comic con interview that he hates too much CGI on production .. and that's one of reasons why Nolan's Sci-Fi movies is much different than the others

[@estivel15]

I agree. In his last movie "Interstellar" he only used CGI for things he couldn't do with practical effects.

[@Teekoness]

Have you seen the latest Mad Max film? They used almost all practical effects with the only notable exception being the Hurrican scene.

[@CS2K23]

@@Teekoness yeah loved mad Max totally...I wonder if there is any other better action cinema in the world

[@grahamvandyke]

THIS is special effects. I'm so sick of CGI in movies.

[@5nefarious]

Well, CGI is still really effective if you don't have the money to create an entire world. I think what you're sick of is _bad_ CGI; giving the artists less CGI to do would probably improve the quality of the CGI as a whole.

[@grahamvandyke]

aismartie14 That's very true. The problem I have with CGI as a whole now is the fact that it's so overused to the point where half of all action scenes now are digitally created. The human eye can tell very easily when something isn't real, which makes these scenes so mindblowingly amazing to watch.

[@DarthVader-ib7tl]

I agree!

[@ErizotDread]

aismartie14 I think CGI is most effective when it's not overused. Like any tool, it can be overused, and when you see it constantly, it can take you out of the experience...I find for me, it's especially noticeable when CGI is used for whole environments, rather than just some effects and enhancements. No matter how good the graphics, the eye can tell it's not physically real. It has to be subtle, otherwise I get tired of it, especially when it's used in 90% of movies today. My 2 cents, anyway.

[@DarthVader-ib7tl]

I remember the when movies used to look real and didn't have to rely on special effects. Movies like back to the future used it in scenes like the time travelling scenes, etc. You know, pretty sparingly. That's why I loved the original trilogy of Star Wars, and Indiana Jones, especially the face melting scene, they used wax. If it was made today, it would be a fake looking cgi piece of crap.

[@shawnmendes4700]

Wow! Huge applaud to the producing team. Never thought it was done for real.

"My dear kuttichathan" did it in 1984 ,26 prior to inception at 1/1000 th of the cost

[@aseshmandal8120]

Both of the directors were inspired from Stanley Kubrick so no difference.

[@hvip4]

Is it important to do all this in camera? I don't think so, and the 99% of audience watching the movie once probably won't even realize (I didn't). But it's just so cool having a director who want's to do it just because it can be done. When you have a director like that, the action just has more *weight* to it, whether you realize how it was done or not. If you just do CGI, it's difficult to keep it tasteful, it's difficult to make the actors react properly to your CGI environment when they have a motion rig strapped to them and it's hard not to overdo it. Doing it in for real just makes me appraciate the director and the crew more and it's a good marketing for them.
