Great thread Ash.

Re: Behind The Scenes (Bandwidth Warning)

Superb work Ash, loving these pictures.

I very recently got my hands on the old "ILM: Art of Special Effects" book which is an amazing book covering ILM's work on their 80s films. I've only briefly perused it so far, but would definitely recommend. Lots of neat pictures too. One thing that consistently surprises me is the extent of use of matte paintings back then (and still now I guess) in films I never thought were anything but mostly real. Indy and Co. walking up to Pankot palace for example.

Re: Behind The Scenes (Bandwidth Warning)

Technically, they could have been in the 'cool pictures' thread as I put a few in the early pages (including some posted above) but having it's own thread is cool too. I know what it is liking wanting to have your own thread that you can post things you want people to see smile

Re: Behind The Scenes (Bandwidth Warning)

Vol VI ~ Big Trouble In Little China (1986)
One of my old favorites. I was a little surprised how little "behind the scenes" stuff there was from the making of the movie.

Kurt Russell and John Carpenter.

Pace change from monsters - some set photos with my favorite director, Tsai Ming-liang.

Candidate for best set photo of all time. From The Wayward Cloud.

I Don't Want to Sleep Alone

I Don't Want to Sleep Alone

Some exciting new thing. Might be called Story of a Young Boy.

Re: Behind The Scenes (Bandwidth Warning)

Thanks Paulou, I've never heard of Tsai Ming-liang before. I'm interested in checking out his films. What movie of his would you say is the best to begin with?

Re: Behind The Scenes (Bandwidth Warning)

Ash, his stuff is almost comically difficult to find a way in. All of his features thus far have all followed the same group of characters on one timeline varying from direct to indirect sequels to one another. Goodbye Dragon Inn stands somewhat alone and might be the most accessible, and if you like it, go back to Rebels of the Neon God and go forward from there.

They're extremely slow and meditative, but after a couple they start to reveal themselves and become profoundly affecting.

And whatever you do don't start with The Wayward Cloud.

The movies can't really be spoiled so much as experienced, so if interested, feel free to read:

Not quite "behind the scenes" but something happened behind the scenes for this to happen...

Yeah, and of course the most iconic matte painting in the Indy franchise... the Warehouse.
