It's amazing that they had to literally pay someone to CGI him opening his eyes because he just flat out refused to open them.

God drat that movie was a train wreck from start to finish.

Is there some sort of story for him being an rear end in a top hat in blade 2? I remember watching it and thinking it wasn't terrible, then I saw blade 3 which was one extended advert to buy an ipod.

While it's not saying much, I think that Ryan Reynolds' character in 3 is fantastic.

I tried to google this and it linked me to a cracked article and then I got distracted but could you explain this further? Why did he refuse to open his eyes? Was it nap time?
It's in the director's commentary. Goyer's only comment is "The other thing that happened in this scene is that Blade opened his eyes, and on the day, Wesley did not open his eyes.” From memory he's asked why and he just says "I don't know, he just wouldn't".

Patton Oswalt has some great background on the filming which puts it in perspective https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i8rCtzKA9tQ

The AV Club did an interview with Patton Oswalt that talks about it too.

quote:

A lot of the lines that Ryan Reynolds has were just a result of Wesley not being there. We would all just think of things for him to say and then cut to Wesley’s face not doing anything because that’s all we could get from him. It was kind of funny. We were like, “What are the worst jokes and puns that we can say to this guy?” And then it would just be his face going, “Mmm.” “Smiles are contagious.” It’s so, so dumb. [Laughs.] That was an example of a very troubled shoot that we made fun. You have to find a way to make it fun.

I think there's just raw footage of Reynolds doing all kinds of hammy ad-lib poo poo, talking to absolutely nobody, for them to pick and choose the best parts from and add a Blade "reaction shot" to later. Wesley Snipes simply refused to come out of his trailer and was high during the entire shooting of Blade 3.

For a lot of people T2 was the first time they saw an actual video of exactly what a nuclear weapon was capable of. People saw the mushroom cloud video, generally, and knew what nukes were and that two were dropped but nobody really had a good mental image of just what destruction on that scale actually looked like.

Then...that movie got made.

Some of them saw The Day After, but it just wasn't the same.

I can only imagine Snipes was actually in some kind of drug coma and therefore they had to CGI his eyes open.

I've been sitting here for 5 mins trying to think of a joke to make but I just realised the animators of Mass Effect already did it for me

I do wish that Wolverine movie hadn't hosed up Deadpool because I really liked the idea of Reynolds having his own Deadpool movie to joke around from start to finish.

One thing I can never hack is entirely CGI'd car chases. They just feel like watching a bad videogame. I also felt that way about the CGI wide-shot battles scenes in the LotR films - I wanted to mash ESC.

In further controversial opinions, The Terminator is cooler than Terminator 2.

All I see is delicious coffee. You guys are weird.


vvv

It's crema, a component of espresso that is basically the oils/fats in a coffee bean mixed with air in a frothy, fatty matrix. So it's structurally very similar to ice cream, really.

On one of the DVD releases there’s a commentary with James Cameron where he laments how Robert Patrick’s junk is supposed to be obscured. He says something along the lines of “I have somewhere a $10,000 check that says ‘digital penis removal’ and you can still see his dick in the scene somehow.”

Something like that probably came down to the shots being done late in post-production. From what I’ve heard, a lot of lovely effects work happens when things get super-rushed in order to make the release date.

Content!

Yeah, one of the reports that came out of the filming of the movie was that Snipes literally wouldn't shoot any scene unless it was completely necessary for him to be there. So basically any shot that isn't a close up or has him talking is a stunt double with a CGI face.

More along the lines of Snipes thinking he was too important to be bothered, and he told David Goyer to quit directing; the director told him he should quit acting instead, reiterating they'd already done most of his close-up work already, so they could do everything else with his stand in.

That SUPER freaked out Snipes Blade, so he became even weirder to deal with.

My favorite part of "The Day After" is the disclaimer at the end that states 'an actual nuclear war would probably be much worse'. If you really want to shoot your weekend to hell though, watch "Threads".





Adding to Snypes-chat, wasn't there a movie where when he was called in to do ADR, he did his entire dubbing in a Jerry Lewis voice so that the movie couldn't be finished?

It still amazes me that I didn't realize the t1000 was using 3 arms in the helicopter scene until maybe a year or two ago.

It's when he's chasing them in the chopper, not in the above gifs.
