I have worked with at least one of the Hollywood guys that had worked on some of the Star Wars, but more on Iron Man. He worked on building a set for a movie, and would actually go to a local thrift store looking for as much junk as he could find. A calculator that had a printer in it when glued to a barber shop chair that has been flipped upside down is now a pilot's control module. Cheap plastic paint trays spray painted with a metallic like paint then glued to particle board is now the ships blast armor (looked better when the paint tray had grooves in it to help the paint off your brush). The back half of a kid's golf caddy painted with a more metallic type paint, glued to a wall is now an air tank. It was pretty amazing to walk through this set and realizing that the stuff that was used was really cheap garbage made to look expensive. It was AWESOME!! I miss that job so much!

3:25 Fun Fact: The cat was a stray in the backlot of Universal. Marlon took a liking to it and used it during 1 of the rehersal scenes. It looked so natural they decided to keep it in the film.

Oh, well that adds more depth to that joke off of Shrek 2 when Pinocchio was wearing a thong while he is doing a little bit of a Tom Cruise Mission Impossible moment.😂

I read that John Rhys-Davies (Gimli in LOTR) was allergic to the prosthetics they made him wear which is why it sometimes appears as though one of his eyes is squinting, but he stuck it out anyway. Didnt they film the three movies over the course of 2 years? Thats a long time to put up with allergies like that! Props to JRD!!

I played a cop on TV for two seasons, and most of our lines were easy enough to remember, that we'd shoot and move on, but we were also allowed artistic merit to make the character more realistic. For long sides, we would glance down at them. David Caruso was notorious for reading his sides in CSI Miami. That's why he was always looking down.

When "Life of Brian" by Monty Python was being filmed in Tunisia, the lead star, Graham Chapman, was the staff physician when not on camera. He mainly treated dysentery and scorpion stings, so I can dig how Harrison Ford must've felt.

Don't forget, too, that Tom Cruise often stood on boxes while filming 'cause he's so short. At least Michael J Fox owned his shortness!

The early days of the cinema were filled with things that today we would never do. It's amazing what a little bit of knowledge and time can do to perspective.

Another thing that happened in candy man was that to get the entranced reaction from Virginia Madison, the director hired an actual hypnotist to hypnotize her. The director would then use a key word to bring her back into a trance like state for shoots. This continued until one day Virginia forgot an entire day of shooting and the no longer consented to being hypnotized. 14:19

John Wayne also smoked like a chimney, drank like a fish, and ate large amounts of particularly health-questionable foods. He'd already had a lung removed from cancer, so who knows what should be blamed for his eventual demise.

Brando: “Real people don’t recite from a script having a conversation…it’s unnatural”
Real People: “They don’t read from cue cards in a conversation either.” 😂🙄

The Wizard of Oz is such an incredible movie... but that's mainly just the fact it was even made, because it had so many issues, problems, deaths and injuries. It's a horrible story, so the fact that something so good came out of it is pretty remarkable.

In “The Exorcist”, Linda Blair was strapped to a bed that would shake frequently to make the iconic demonic movements. But the rapid force fractured her spine, which means the screams of terror where *real.*

It's so sad what actors went through just to make a good movie. Thank goodness we're more aware of these dangers now

I’ll never watch a Tom Cruise movie the same way again
😂

MAN!
The Wizard of Oz had so many production problems!
The first guy who played the Tin woodsman had to quit because his makeup made it so he couldn't breathe, the lady who played the Wicked witch of the west got her face burned becaue of her makeup and a badly timed explosion!
And now I find out that the snow was made of ASBESTOS?!
What the heck?!😰

What I want to know is, why did they use real locks on the tank for Isla’s stunt? They could have attached the chains on her wrists to Nothing(!), and the locks on the lid didn’t have to actually lock. If something went wrong, which it did, she could have instantly bailed. And they could have used a safeword signal to get her out.

I always look for recognizable items in sci-fi movies that they try to pass off as future tech. It actually happens quite a bit…

The cat in The Godfather wandered onto the set while they were about to shoot. Brando picked it up and started petting it while the scene was being shot.

I'm glad Buddy Ebsen recovered from inhaling the aluminium powder in the Wizard of Oz and it didn'tput him off later in life he played Uncle Jed Clampett in The Beverly Hillbillies.

15:34 I love the sad marshmallow man in the bottom right corner.

I also love it when the marshmallow man runs away in terror.

I love your show and keep up the funniest home videos.
