[@tara-bc6oe]

This is one of the best channels on youtube

I went to the see this movie once a week when it came out. Only movie I've ever seen over and over again in a theater . One of the best movies ever made. The family seemed like mine😀

[@ThomasLuca]

More pictures need to be made like this nowadays. Miniatures, Make-Up, Mechanical Effects, RC Animatronic Characters, Rod Puppets, etc. We have a few in Development.

[@ThomasLuca]

BOSS FILM was great. Thank you Richard Edlund and the gang! (APPLAUSE) You made a lot of pictures great with your Movie Magic.

amazing coffee machine !

[@GothCad]

Mark Stetson isn't just "a great boss" and "a great guy to work for" (which I can nonetheless certainly vouch for, having personally worked for him). He's also one of my favorite people, period.

How long ago was this and what was your job?

[@wayneclayton5426]

That floating platform I thought was Vader's chamber at first, but it's Skeletor from He-Man isn't it?

[@piercefilm]

Yes. He-Man was being made around the same time at Boss Film.

[@decibelfilm]

The swords and rifles in the department group photo at 00:57 are from He-Man too.

There were miniatures in Poltergeist 2? Who would’ve thunk it??? 🤔🤔🤔

[@calessel3139]

This is such a great channel!

[@piercefilm]

Thank you!

[@steffenbach3580]

Are you planning on shooting new interviews? A lot of the guys are older now and have probably more stories to tell? Still, every upload is appreciated! Great channel, amazing content. Thank you!

[@piercefilm]

I will try to get more interviews with German model makers soon.

[@piercefilm]

Friendly competition! Edlund did the first Poltergeist at ILM before starting his own company in LA.

[@shainewhite2781]

Now we know why Boss Films never won as Oscar. Lol!!

[@ThomasLuca]

[@GENFX303]

Me : CGI sucks. 🤐
Me : Except T2 and The Abyss. 😲

[@Clay3613]

Shame this movie suffered from horrendous slapdash compositing for many scenes.
