    I work in the film industry in the props department for almost 20 years now, and you would be amazed at the cost of creating a new newspaper. You can’t “just grab one”. Every name and photo has to be cleared, if you can’t clear a photo, you have to hire a photographer to shoot the photo, which involves an actor, costumes, props, a set or location and then an art department person editing it, laying it out, coming up with stories included in it, getting it printed, multiple copies.... Unbelievably a newspaper can end up costing $5000. So, do you create a newspaper or just grab the old gag one everyone uses?

    Jack Nicholson was in the original 1960s Little Shop of Horrors as the guy who loved getting teeth pulled so the same tools being used on Jack in Batman from the Little Shop of Horrors musical remake is almost an easter egg.

The only difference is that Cracked produces videos that are still funny, where as Buzzfeed videos have NEVER been funny, or clever, or insightful, or frankly the least bit accurate, or intellectual as much as they pretend they are totally smart & stuff.

    First they used the fake paper to avoid showing copyrighted content. With time, using that paper became a tradition, and a bit of an easter egg for movie enthusiasts. The girl in the photo was the wife of one of the guys who worked at the prop company print shop. And she's alive, by the way. I know her.

    Also, couldn't you cracked guys have gotten a better picture for Power Rangers? I can still see the Fox Kids logo.
    Fox Kids was just fucking great, wasn't it? Power Rangers, Jackie Chan, Spiderman, Batman: The animated Series, Animanacs. Man that was my childhood right there.

    • @k9commander
      @k9commander 9 лет назад

      ***** Yeah but due to time travel, the alternatives where riddled with danger. If Jen stayed in the past, any kids they had would risk getting together with one of Jen's ancestors. Even if they didn't stay together, she risks herself getting together with one of her ancestors. If Wes went into the future, his descendants (Jen's ex-boyfriend and red ranger of that century) would be erased from the time-line. The truth is, their romance was doomed to fail from the beginning. Before you say Jen could have been the one he was destined to be with, his future wife from the future, remember that she dated Wes' descendant. That means her ex-boyfriend would also be her (unknown amount of) great grandson. I wasn't smart enough to understand the complexities of time travel when I first saw the show so I was bummed when they didn't kiss. Now, I'm happy they didn't. Still a great season.

I took the job without knowing what the movie was, and when I showed up I was so excited to be working on an adaptation of Heinlein's book. I started looking around the shop, thinking I was going to be building big Powered Armor suits like in "Aliens". My heart sunk when I found out that the mobile infantry was just going to be a bunch of guys with flak vests and helmets. Like in "Aliens".

      @Phoenix2312 8 лет назад

      +BanazirGalpsi1968 I think that may have been 'Discounted' as the studios not only reused Robbie, but they also made the each series... In addition, rather than being a reused prop - It was a reused Character.
      While Robbie the Robot has since gone onto many Cameos in Movies such as Gremlins, its normally a Homage to the past so therefore probably does not count...

    Wait technically couldn't bosk (the star wars alien) be the doctor? I mean the doctor can come back as any species of alien. And he is able to travel through time and great distances (a long time ago, in a galaxy far away) So maybe that prop was intentional, and they both exist in the same cinematic world. And the doctor was helping the empire because he thought they were the good guys.

      +paperheartsnreal1s That's not true. The Timelords absorb biodata when they regenerate and if they do it around other species enough it can change their appearance to match. Lord Cardinal Zero once regenerated as a bird for example. It happens super rarely though since most Timelords don't spend enough time around other species.

    I take no issue with the Ghostbusters wanting to do an all female team, but what I do take issue is if they did an all-female team just to do an all-female team. That's what it felt like they were doing. That was the first time I heard about the new GB movie. Which means the producers seemed keen on ensuring the viewers knew that they were adding to their diversity checklist.

    • @k1n6n07h1n6
      @k1n6n07h1n6 9 лет назад +5

      I get why we need diversity. As a society, we NEED diversity, otherwise it would grow boring and everything would be lame, but it needs to be fluid. I honestly can't see Melissa McCarthy being a Ghostbuster, but because people love her so much, (not me), she gets wedged into a GB role. You let artistic creativity flow, the outcry for diversity wouldn't be needed, but because movies are a business, artistic freedom gets a backseat.

    • @bjmensz
      @bjmensz 9 лет назад +4

      Bichpants McGee this is how movies are made. you make things to make things. your criticism makes no sense.
      "what if we ghostbusters but with all women" or "what if we made an old western but set in space" are exactly how creativity _works_. the list of movies, often great movies, that simply take an earlier creative work and recontextualize with one conceptual difference is HUGE.
      paul feig directed bridesmaids, and probably likes working with all of these women. he wanted to make an all-female ghostbusters working with a bunch of women he's worked with before. it's not some weird mystery, and it makes business sense considering bridesmaids was a huge hit.

    • @zetram01
      @zetram01 9 лет назад +3

      Bichpants McGee Why couldn't you see her as a ghostbuster? There's no ghostbuster framework. The had two genius, a smart mouth shyster, and a blue collar go who's over his head. Really the only defining characteristic of a ghostbuster is being an utter outcast. Pretty sure McCarthy can play that. Not that I'm a fan of her work or anything, but really there's no strong argument to support the hate other than pure emotional backlash.
      Oh and on the point of making them all female just to be all female... So what? Why is this bad or irritating to you? Again... no logic/pure emotion.

    • @k1n6n07h1n6
      @k1n6n07h1n6 9 лет назад +5

      Because it is a fad. My point of being more fluid, why does it have to be all female? It doesn't have to be all male either. My problem, again, isn't the all-female crew, it's how the producer's seem to have been beating their chests at the announcement at how diverse they were when they weren't being diverse. They're still segregating, but instead of excluding the women so the focus could be on men, they're excluding the men so the focus can be on the women. Diversity would mean they have a mixture of genders and ethnicity. Isn't that what civil rights has been about all these years? Not to include one group only to exclude another, but to bring everyone together in a fair way? Even if they had a solo token male character, I'd be fine because that's more realistic. When has there been, in recent history, a work force or group of people that fit a solitary set of characteristics in people? That's why it feels like they're using an all-female crew just to have an all-female crew.They're cashing in on how P.C. the world's supposed to be today.

    • @k1n6n07h1n6
      @k1n6n07h1n6 9 лет назад +3

      bjmensz I get that, and understand that's how movies are made, but when you announce it and the only news I hear is that it's an all-female crew rather than when we can expect it, what the basic plot is going to be, or even any other details about the film, it was almost like those making it were merely patting themselves on the back because they had all women. I take no problem with the all-female crew, it's how those making it are acting is what I take issue with. I know I'm fighting a losing battle here, but I'm going to stand by what I say. Will the movie be good, I don't know. I'm not criticizing it, but merely making an observation that the reasons for making it are less about artistic freedom and exploration but to cash in on the recent push for political correctness.

    • @restlessnameless85
      @restlessnameless85 8 лет назад +1

      No one said it was a faithful adaptation. That is a completely different topic.
      On the topic of faithful adaptations, if you go around picking highly specific elements from a book and complaining that they are not rendered identically, you'll be mad about most adaptations. Save yourself the time, read the book again, and don't go see adaptations of your favorite books.
      The filmmaker is not beholden to the fans of the book. They're not even beholden to the author. They buy the rights and then they make the movie that they think works with their vision. It is an entity unto itself.

    • @restlessnameless85
      @restlessnameless85 8 лет назад +1

      Occasionally an author will get more creative control but that's the exception not the rule. The typical best case scenario is that the author will get first draft rights on the screenplay. The director can they ask for a rewrite or even throw out the script entirely. Then, on top of that, the studio typically has authority over the director and can replace him if they want.
      Kubrick threw out King's screenplay for The Shinning, even though he was a well known author, and Palahniuk didn't even write the first draft of Fight Club. And of course, as to the case in question, Heinlien had no creative control because he was dead. Can you imagine someone's estate bartering for creative control with a director?
      Not only do author's of novel have little creative control, writers of screenplays don't. A writer is under the control of the director and can be ordered to change the screenplay or be replaced entirely under most circumstances. Rights to the screenplay, like rights to the novel, are a commodity that is purchased.
