Massive respect captain D!
After years of watching your videos it’s a nice feeling being featured :)
Great breakdown as always!
Good job @Macro Room
You did a fantastic job!
BUSTED
I think he will get pinned
Nice job!
Captain goblin king was a personal highlight.
- a British boy with a ridiculously expensive phantom.
Aren't we all
Heh gotch u
heeeeeeeeyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy whaaaaaaaaattttsssssssuuuuuuuuuupppppppppppppppp
Even had a helper behind doing the juggling for him just like the original. Bravo!
@@bleepbloopblahp Jeeze i didnt even catch that. I love the captain but I gotta think the guy handling Bowie's balls got the better deal
Nice breakdown. I’m always amazed by the amount of work you put into these videos… both the analysis and presentation of findings. I can’t get enough of them. 👍
Hi Captain Hands! eh, I mean, LockPickingLawyer!
Ditto
It's cool to see huge RUclipsrs casually sliding into the replies on Captain D's videos. It's nice to see RUclipsrs enjoy each other's content.

LPL, can you pick a nose?
I love how CD makes the explanation look like he had access to the raw footage 🤯
It takes so much more effort to create the RAW after it's post :' D
Beyond impressive!! O Captain my Captain
Jack we need a CD parody, bring the shamwow jack back
Or maybe a song, aa a peace offering so that you dont get rotoscoped out of the world
HELLO!!! I want to spend time with celebrities. Just kidding. GAGAGAGAGA! I only want to spend time with my two girlfriends and record videos for RUclips with the 3 of us. OH YEAH. Don't hate me for living the best life, dear jack

HOW DID YOU KNOW MY NEXT VIDEO CAPTAIN?!
Your next video was 23 years ago ?
It's because balloons, it makes sense.
Incredible
Why so many verified channels?
@@vanceoz4080 coz, Cap D is every RUclipsrs favourite
A new CD video! It's about time.
I see what you did there. Clever!
hi verified human
Ah yes, puns.
Says the pot to the kettle.
hehe time
I just noticed that in the scene at 2:44, there's a guy behind the Captain who's actually doing the glass ball juggling. There's doing a brief Labarynth homage, and then there's also homaging the way the original movie did the same thing! (David Bowie couldn't juggle like that, it's a guy behind him stickin' his arm through).
lookin for this comment haha
It's Alan the intern! You can see him wearing the same shirt at 12:15
I didn't know this bit of trivia, but it makes sense how the waving of the arm always felt suspect to me, like it felt disjointed from the body as it wasn't at all reflecting the inertial changes or whatever.
Very nice catch and shows how slight of hand works. We perceive wide views, but our focus is actually a tiny point that makes everything outside it less obvious. I don't think our brains could handle it if our eyes did focus clearly on everything we see.
Holy crap, never noticed this, good catch. Captain D puts so much more than we deserve into every video, they’re all works of art.
Just reading all the top comments...Captain D truly is the RUclipsr's RUclipsr. A Bowie-impersonating god amongst men.
Even you're here man. Truly Captain D is everyone's youtuber.
I see you everywhere. Are you trying to beat Justin Y.?
CD really is the pinnacle of RUclips craftwork. We are lucky to have him.
Captain Disillusion is on another level. Recently edited and posted my first video and wow I severely underestimated how long even the simplest of edits take. I can't imagine how long his videos take to edit, especially with the perfect time he has. Master of the craft!
@@cognitiveconsonancescience2937 I think it takes a month, give or take.
The day CD uploads it automatically gets better
hi verified person
The time verified person comments the likes automatically gets increased
Indeed
Barely, I just split up with my girlfriend
Yea
Guy on internet: Makes visual effect
CD: NO YOU'RE DOING IT WRONG, THAT'S SO MUCH HARDER THAN IT NEEDS TO BE
Also CD: Rotoscopes himself in the same scene behind shards of falling glass
He even took the effort of putting his reflection into the shards of glass that hit him....that's seriously insane attention to detail!
@@bmorenelson9262 My guess is that he just did that in blender-that way you get it basically included
Weren't you paying attention? The whole setup with the black background makes luma keying possible.
@@bmorenelson9262 Hey, that's his thing "having insane attention to details" 😉

> Runtime: 12 minutes, 57 seconds
Ah yes, the Alan Becker scale of Quick. Though I won't lie, I love a bigger helping of Captain D. As always, great breakdown of VFX and hilarious commentary.
can’t even imagine how much work goes into each video
@@vanceoz4080 because his content is fire
whats up checkmark
@@vanceoz4080 Why keep spamming this pointless comment?
@@Grim_Beard ikr
Some guy: spends a whole lot of time and work to make some pretty nice VFX shots.
CD: recreates each and every shot, the original footage, the guy's set, adds even more stuff and visuals that need precise rotoscoping/masking while providing a detailed analysis and breakdown of everything.
It's insane how much work CD puts into these, seriously, there's nothing quite like it.
Yeah and then some people would just react to this video and say its awesome and then get some money from literally doing nothing
@@cyberseai9305 The youtube foodchain
Your thoroughness and attention to detail is truly beyond normal human capacity. It's like watching you take apart a crime scene and recreating the events in real time. Great Video.
whats up checkmark
Yes indeed
@@vanceoz4080 think it just moves high rated comments up and people with a following get high rated
@@vanceoz4080 Every social media platform does it
And every single second of his video has so many little details animations and editing done to it. I wonder how long each minute takes him to make.
This is some insane work. We can’t imagine how much time was put into it. Very inspiring!
Lmao 2.5 million subscribers and no comments, I find that funny
Lol
11:36 - I _love_ that Cap added in his own reflection to the table. Utter genius!
Plus the amount of time he spent rotoscoping the watch chain, and glass, in the forefront of his image
No wonder he is a RUclipsrs’ RUclipsr.
I nerded out hard when I caught that.
The fun is in the specifics.
He also added flashing lights to his face from the left and the right when the bulbs exploded.
Edit: This is the top of the cake. These two effects can be seen only for 2-3 video frames. Pause the video when he comes up from behind the table and use "," and "." to step frame-by-frame. Watch the lightbulbs exploding and the light changing on his hair and face at the same time. Unbelievable.
I absolutely love that your "Quick D" series is anything but "quick" - but the result of at least 200+ hours (more?) of painstaking work and a meticulous attention to detail. I feel like I'm watching an early Simpsons episode here - there are gags, visuals, and references crammed into every other second. I love it!
Bravo, CD - another fantastic video as usual :-)
This Quick D is actually longer than the last regular debunking episode.
I had a great time watching this video, but I wonder if other people know WTF is going on. he's "machine gunning" people with information.
I know, his channel is so underrated!
One of the most amazing things to me is the recreation of the original shots, which is often harder to do than the VFX explained in the video, and CD actually does it better, too, with less visible artifacts.
For example, look at the segment starting at 7:51 again and keep in mind that CD did not have access to the footage without sprinkles in the jar.
I'm pretty sure the "I'm missing it" gag @2:14 is actually taken from the chili cook off episode of The Simpsons, aka The Mysterious Voyage of Homer.
I appreciate how, in order to show the "unedited" takes, Captain had to edit the edited takes so the edit looks like the unedited take, giving us a double-edited re-edit de-edit using different editing techniques to reverse the original editing techniques used in the original edit. You could even re-analyze his analysis to determine how he re-edits the edits to de-edit them!
For example, in order to show the dropped watch in "real time," Captain possibly had to take the edited footage, manually matted the pocket watch from the slowed video and re-time it with the full-speed background to digitally replicate the original footage from before it was digitally altered, possibly even doing it frame-by-frame. Of course, the table was still in sync relative to the watch, so it was still home-free. Not to mention all the times Captain has to edit out the backgrounds of things, including the similar-coloured shirt to the pocket watch, which still couldn't be lumi-keyed.
The value in these videos is more than just the masterful analysis, there is also the masterful re-edit de-editing that he has to do each time to expose the hidden secrets! Any obsessive hobbyist can spot tricks, but only a master knows what tricks it takes to undo the tricks used initially.
Say edit again.
This should be the top comment. He probably had to do 10x of the Editing/VFX work to do the analysis. I'm sure the de-editing helps him do the super-human analysis though.
I like your funny paragraphs, VFX man
Challenge: drink a shot every time he says "edit"
Nah, I bet he just asked Ben for the original footage
I'll never understand why people say science _removes_ beauty. Isn't this whole thing so much more interesting than "it's magic"?
Magic is the same but without editing I guess
@James Cooper i would want to be really good at vfx rather than having superpowers, since life's gonna be boring with superpowers.
🛸
@James Cooper I'll take the one that exists lol
Personally I feel it is just as fun and interesting. Half and Half.
He doesnt just do analysis, he straights up replicates what is shown, and that is truly amazing
he creates the real version from the edited version, and we dont even notice if we dont try. its amazing!
@@mathportillo that’s what I was going to say! It’s awesome!
I think some people forget these aren’t actual behind the scenes, CD has to make it all. Utterly insane.
Yeah been thinking how the hell he manages to get back to unedited footage, but guess he sources all the materials and reshoots same scenes, its damn impressive, specially since i know how much effort goes to just basic editing.
@Miles Doyle what?
@Miles Doyle Eh?
@@voidling2632 All preaching is spam.
@Miles Doyle lord satan texted unto me on my iphone in my bathtub, right after i had been thinking that i oughta have a talk with him about my leaky bathtub, and he said "your bathtub dost leaketh, go thee to thine plumber" i was shook.
Only Captain Disillusion can achieve this magic dance of entertainment. Thanks for the educational labyrinth, with jokes and knowledge at every turn.
The attention to detail, in all his videos, is just divine. French chef's kiss.
Love your music. Canon is still my favourite album.
nice
*NOW PLEASE RELEASE A NEW TRACK BACK ON MONSTERCAT*
Honestly, most of this goes over my head. But it's extremely clear to me that CD really knows his stuff. I'm in awe every time I watch his videos.
HOLY SHIT OVERWERK
I love the quiet squishing sounds when he penetrates the books
5:25 that "Why are balloons?" and the "No" in the thumbnail was spot on and made me laugh more than it should have.
"23 years ago" lmao
8:45 "What's that thing?" gets me. So dry >XD
+1
Is it a real video?
@@pushkarc28 sadly no
When the video is done, I just sit here and think about what I just watched. What a magician
And since he doesn't have access to the original footage, just "re-creating" backwards those scenes takes at least 2-5 times longer than the original creator has spent. Just think about the block tower, for example. For 24 frames of tower falling you have to create a CGI tower that looks the same and then animate it - that's really hours of work for 1 second of footage.
I usually watch CD videos to the end and then try **really** hard not to think how much time it takes to make them.
@@vanceoz4080 Stop spamming for attention.
I imagine he took from one of the greatest Magicians and Sceptics of our time, James Randi, seeing as they filmed an episode together.
God damn your videos are good
Get him as a guest already
This some Goat on GOAT action here
James thinks the fox maiden from robin hood is hot
How are you not verified
Satan darn your videos are ok, keep up the ok work. Can't wait for the matrix rev vid.
"But anyone can generalize" i actual love this joke i almost didnt notice it the first time
03:02 "Anyone can generalize." Under-rated writer, that Captain.
A nice literal “smash cut” to go with it as well, two jokes for the price of one
You also see it in little details like complimenting the sound quality while "debunking" the video. Not a lot of people remember that sort of thing when they're all caught up in their grand new script but dude's a decent person first and foremost and I appreciate that, it shows.
Heyyy it's Nathan Rich the China's b-[demonetized]
@@BichaelStevens Nathan Rich is cool 😎

The amount of effort in these videos is always breathtaking. Amazing work, Captain!
Now we need an otamatone captain disillusion
WAH!
We don't deserve the Capt.
Soon he will prove you are made out of VFX, Sully!
No real man can play the otamatone so well!
Wah wah wah wah?
The captain doesn't really push his patreon on his viewers all that much, so I'll take it upon myself to inform anyone who reads this that he's only a mere $20 off from his patreon goal! The reward tiers have some really nice looking benefits too, so if you're at all interested in supporting the channel monetarily, it's worth checking out!
Im broke man, here take my like. And oh, I pressed it 2 times just to be sure.
@@BM-su7kc why are you saying like that? op just asked nicely
@@Ashish.1.1 just joking.
This guy is smart, resourceful, has an incredible attention to detail and hilarious!! 😂
Captain D showing the "behind the scenes" on someone else's footage is endlessly impressive and satisfying.
I would just like to reassure Alan the Unpaid Intern that his Flight of The Navigator video was completely epic. This is why he doesn't earn the big bucks.
Barely people, somehow legal
@@StraveTube nice ref
Captain's reflection in the table at 11:36 is almost just mean by this point.
wow good catch
2:50 I like where the CD-explaining-luminance-keying part isn’t shot with luminance-keying; CD’s using standard blue/green-screen (evidenced by the slight haloing on his hands when he moves them quickly). Very nice, well done.
I was wondering why the green screen wasn't perfect in that scene!
Every time you upload it's a good day.
good enough day to upload a video? please man
Yeah inferno 😁
did you know he uploaded on 9/11. was that a good day? no. so...
@@michaelwesten4624 What happened on the ninth of november?
Indeed.
Such a shame CD doesn't get all the hits. I absolutely loved the Flight of the Navigator video. It was timed perfectly to share with my family as well, but I guess I should assume they didn't watch it, from his view count haha.
It's a pretty long video with less humour, so I get why people didn't watch it so much. In fact, I only watched it once myself 😅
Maybe I should do it again in a while
Yeah that Flight of the Navigator video was a damn masterpiece!
Dude, same. I told my parents about it so... they watched the actual flight of the navigator movie instead. Rip.
I think RUclips algorithms reward more frequent content over quality content, which is quite unfortunate.
That video is one of the best produced, edited amazing videos in the history of RUclips.
Gotta watch this several times to see all the carefully crafted details ... OMG the work CD puts into these!
your pfp... tricked me?
Probably why it’s been like a year since the last one….
Him and his epic team
How have you commented 21 hours ago?
@@SplattyPB same question
The only channel watched by the big guys on RUclips with millions of subs. Which makes Captain the best RUclipsr
That subtle rotoscoping flex at 11:32, entering the frame himself before the locket finishes animating. The explosion of the bulbs even lit him up while he was there!
Even better, his own subtle reflection on the table. Now that's attention to detail.
He does have a solid black Tee on so probably not as tough.
@@JD.Knight That's not how that works really. But the original video still has black background there so youre half-right.
@@JD.Knight ?? that doesn’t matter. What matters is the original black background, it was an easy luminance key, the glass shards in his face is more impressive
OMG! I didn't notice! Very well done!
these videos are amazing! Every time you say "caught in the reflection of the glasses" i'm like "OHHHHHH" 😱

Does he have someone behind him doing all the ball tricks just like how they did it in labyrinth?
@Miles Doyle you have no power over me
You’d almost think he had access to the original clean plate files with how amazingly well this was put together. Great work!
Most vfx artists, even with the clean plates, couldn't pull it off.
Shirt: _Wrinkles slightly_
CD: Gentleman, we got 'em.
God this channel is so unbelievably underrated. The quality all across the board is so good. I wish content like this would see the success it deserves.
Every time I see your videos I take the "behind the scenes" scenes for granted, but then I'm like wait a sec, he doesn't have the actual footage, he “reversed” the editing. Really impressive stuff.
right?? we need a behind the scenes of his behind the scenes! how did he replace the sprinkles bottle with an empty sprinkles bottle
Captain D does a lot of research and actually attempts to contact original creators to see if they're willing to help educate on certain topics.
MacroRoom seems to be really chill and likes Captain D's content, so it's definitely possible he just handed the unedited footage to Captain D to use as reference material (maybe even helping his explanation too).
@@BetaDude40 I keep rewatching those parts of the video to try and figure out if that's the case and it's hard to tell. There'd have to be a lot of cloning but captain's very good at that so it's hard to say for sure. The scene with the normal speed stopwatch falling seems like it has some rotoscoping artefacts but then again it would be surprisingly hard to reverse the speed ramping on the original stopwatch to make the fall look natural without the original footage. I reckon you're probably right
The part where he shows simulated sprinkles?? Well he simulated them himself. For a half second shot he barely even mentions
@@BetaDude40IDK, he also did the same reverse editing for the superhuman tape measuring video. I think he actually painstakingly restored the footage to a close approximation of the raw footage.
Good god, your recreations and breakdowns are spectacular. Amazing as always!
That was a nice CG stopwatch double at 10:48!

the fact that you can recreate the original "raw" image with 3D modeling and simulation is so insanely impressive to me. You are a huge inspiration to me, thank you for making these amazing videos.
Wait are you saying the "real" footage are not some bloopers of the original creator ?

I actually saw the "Flight of the Navigator" video before this one. All 41 minutes and 21 seconds of it. You really did put your heart into it (loved how you went to the locations and saw the actual spaceship painted over). You're doing great Captain keep it up!
Yea it was easily one of my favorite videos along with his breakdown of back to the future
Yeah, I dug that one too
+1, the ”Flight of the Navigator" video is very good, it was incredibly interesting to watch a BTS of the film that I - not only did not watch, but even never _heard_ of - and still I was engaged for entire 45mins of it. And I was left a very warm feeling for people dedicated to their job for so much (CD being such a person, too).
Don't give up Alan the intern, we believe in you!
The poduction value in your videos is always really good but I feel with this video you added extra spice. I like the bit with the glass hitting your face. .... that sounds weird when I put it into words
Yeah, there is so much "spice" add in just the right ways. All the little sound effects really accentuate the elements in the video.
play mgi27
It's not even the spice that blows my mind, it's that they went through and fabricated all of the pre-VFX shots by working backwards from the final video. I didn't even notice at first, until I clicked halfway through that they wouldn't have had access to any of those raw shots. They were all fabricated just to make it look like a regular behind-the-scenes VFX breakdown...
Agreed
Why so many verified channels?
aww, poor Alan. That edition of VFXcool does deserve props (as well as the Back to the Future vids). Hopefully it's getting shown in film school courses where that content can be seriously appreciated - quality over quantity of views.
Why poor alan?
@@Dr.HooWho Because he did all the work and only got a middling reward from RUclips for the effort.

Ok
I've spent most of the afternoon watching these explainers. Massive attention to detail. There are lots of little gem gags in there for the observant. These films must take ages to make. Respect!
The main thing is, our contenteer Alan is happy.
So much this
wu hu hu hu hu 😢
Even though this is ostensibly a 'Quick D', the detail, educational breakdown, and production value in this one are some of the best yet.
During the video, I actually thought I must have misread the title.
Gotta admit his VFX skills are the closest to perfect one can get. Having the eyes from old-school VFX and knowing what to look for makes it that much better. I hope he's commissioning his VFX skills to other creators, he'd make bank.
I would say, Don't accept anything less than triple A movies!.
After reviewing the footage I can finally say that they swung something at the milk jar
The way you reconstruct the "behind the scenes" as if it were the source footage is insane!
Unbelievable as always. Made believable. idk where I'm going with this but it nice video with nonstop funnies
You're good. Were just trying to mutually benefit

@@bookyle21 me2
I had never heard of/seen it before. i only watched because it was captain D
This is SO GOOD.
Pretty close to perfect which is why I'm kinda confused he didn't play the segments in normal speed before explaining each of them. I've never seen the original video and it was hard to follow at times.
@@ThatPianoNoob Not worth the copyright strike I suppose?
so soo good.
@@ThatPianoNoob the reason he does that is so you HAVE to watch the original video because he wants to give the original creator more credit
It should be mentioned: When Alan works in frame-by-frame mode to check his hunches on these analysis videos, his wit really shines: The embedded gags fly by, keeping this viewer smiling at the side jokes. Also, this playfully acerbic humor is quite unique to CD, and reminds me of an Eastern European sense of humor - a tinge of sad and angry, but always in good fun. Thanks for the work on this!
Fun fact - CD was born in an Eastern European country - Latvia. That could explain it. :)
@@ansissprugevics375 I think you mean Alan. Last time I checked, CD is not of this Earth.

Word! I often get that Cinco commercial vibe watching his videos
We're having a tairy greene film festival
That's what really good mac and cheese sounds like

I love how he tells not only how they did it but how they could have done it easier and better
I love how, when I watch a Captain D breakdown I'm like "duh, missed the shadow, left a reflection, wobbly compositing" etc but in reality I would never have spotted any of that without him.
The real "playing with time" is how you manage to explain the making of these videos so quickly and effortlessly! Meanwhile you basically have to reverse-engineer and reconstruct how they were made using only the end product, with no access to the original source material, which I imagine would require more work than actually making the videos in the first place.
There are so many incredible details and jokes in every single frame that I'm going to end up rewatching this dozens and dozens of times. Absolutely astonishing work!

I'm so happy seeing someone else who notices this kind of stuff
Shoutout to Alan standing behind David Bowie!
Such slick work as always Cap
I come away from your videos feeling like you put more work into them than I did my entire life and you'll title it like "lol this is just a quick throwaway vid nbd"
Huh, worlds colliding. I just finished binge watching your entire Witness series and I'm now onto Ori and Hollow Knight, and here you are. Love your stuff and you got a new sub from me.
What is nbd? Is that an acronym?
@@Orangeflava no big deal
@@eXponentia ah thanks. I hate acronyms. Why not just type the words? Doesnt take much more effort.
@@Orangeflava idk, personally I think it's nbd
Captain D really doesn't get the love and appreciation he deserves.
In other words: he doesn't get an infinite amount.
God I love how casually CD uses his own crazy vfx wizardry to explain vfx wizardy. Everything about this episode was fantastic!
“Quick D”
*Twelve minutes long.*
Thank you for the commitment and attention to quality, Captain. Watching this video it’s clear how much thought and effort went into it, from the recreations of the special effects used in the original analyzed videos, the cutaway jokes, etc. thank you for giving us quality content for free.
I love a long Quick D.
In comparison to his last video sure.. this is not "quick".
Dude you're NEXT LEVEL seriously. Just the hero of our time
If it's any consolation, watching your Flight of the Navigator video on a whim is what got me seriously interested in your channel. I've been binging your videos for the past couple hours because of it!
I like how Daily Dose of Internet made a super accurate description about the video: _it was created without any CGI._
So accurate that he distinguished CGI from other forms of VFX.
