I thought I was going to puke from laughing so hard at that

[@zatoichi1]

Kevin nails it every time with the Golden Corral new slogans 😅

[@DarkfireTaimatsu]

I will say this for the puppetry here: When they want you to think the yeti is living, it's unconvincing at best. When they want you to think it's dying, however, it's surprisingly corpse-like!

[@KairuHakubi]

Also to be serious, there are a ton of moments where I have no idea where the puppeteer could be hiding, and this is clearly a low-ass-budget movie, not the kind of thing where they could have ALF-esque trapdoors all over, right? Even if they did, we got unbroken shots of it moving while being held and then placed in a new spot where clearly someone is now moving its arm.

[@GuukanKitsune]

@@KairuHakubi In plain sight. The puppeteer is whatever actor is currently HOLDING him. Ever notice how in those instances, the actor interacting with him ALWAYS has one arm out of shot behind him, and in those instances the only movements he makes are his eyes moving from side to side, blinking, and mouth opening and closing? He has the same kind of mechanisms as a ventriloquist dummy for head-turning and the eyes and mouth, operated via a handle and lever system through a hole in his back, likely the same for simple shoulder-based arm movements. Everything else that moves, such as expressive movements or toes wiggling, only does in close-ups where they can hide the remote face servo control cables out of frame. The ventriloquist dummy for long shots, the more expensive animatronic reserved for closeups and moments where they can set up obstacles. Even sometimes they use the dummy for longer shots (the kitchen sink probably had no bottom in it with another puppeteer they transferred him to waiting when they were cooling him off) It's at its most obvious when he and the little girl are 'hiding' from Grizzly in the Somehow Opaque Leafless Bushes and when the family are huddled together in Grand Central. In both instances, both the daughter and the mother respectively CLEARLY have an arm right up his back. As for all the times nobody's holding him in a longer shot, such as the skateboard? Nothing at all moves except his eyes blinking, indicating radio controlled servos there and an otherwise dead mannequin. Or else it's definitely a MARIONETTE or a person in a suit when they can fudge the scale.

[@KairuHakubi]

@@GuukanKitsune i forgot all about servo cables. i was thinking of shots where he's like, on a chair in her room, or seems to be doing stuff uninterrupted while being picked up and put down, but maybe I was just distracted by his hideousness

[@GuukanKitsune]

​@@KairuHakubi Sometimes, like when an actor picked him up off the table and put him in the sink, they take him from a hidden puppeteer (He was placed near the edge of the table with his back out of view, and the table has a cloth drape.) take over puppeting him themselves, and then when they put him down they're transferring him to another hidden puppeteer (We never do see the inside of the sink they set him in, after all, likely it just had a hole cut in the bottom of it for the puppeteer down there.)
