"Frazetta: Painting With Fire" Trailer

[SuperMemzzz]

He is amazing yes but not the best!!!

[wiidiwii]

@SuperMemzzz then who is?

[SuperMemzzz]

@wiidiwii I don't think anyone is...art is very subjective to say that. Technique or spirit? What are we judging here. I love Broms works a lot as well for example.

[pe6obutilkata]

For me he is the best painter who ever lived.

[CMPUNK404]

= FRANK FRAZETTA WAS AND WILL ALWAYS BE THE BEST PAINTER OF HISTORY, A TRUTH AS BIG LIKE THE ARMS OF CONAN =

R.I.P GREAT Master, long live to Fantasy and Sword and Sorcery !!! :D

[TheCybernaut75]

@CMPUNK404 Frazetta inspired me to do my own art. To my muse thank you Frazetta for giving my imagination the kick in the ass it needed.

[jam24ux]

I have been a Frazetta fan since 1967. He is the best of the best.

[introducing68]

@jam24ux Damn right!!!! I am 42 and I have been following his work since 1975. Frank was and still is, THE GODFATHER, THE GRANDMASTER AND THE MAESTRO OF FANTASY ART!

[haliloa]

MOOBS = Mam Boobs

[GyvonJ]

[pgf95]

@GyvonJ Alex ross FTW! (im just kidding!)

but they are both great!

[GyvonJ]

@pgf95 i AGREE!

[Adeltraut]

he is certainly one of the artists we might remember from the 20. century

[fadarrell]

He is one of the main reasons why I do what I do....I've loved his work since I first picked up a Conan Paperback....I love his work and try to draw from it every time I pick up a pencil, pen, or paintbrush,

[sixdin]

1:04 oh yeh rip frank

[dremelinskov]

My dad was friends with Frank and his family, and I remember going to his estate as a kid, meeting the master himself, and hanging around his museum with his wife, Ellie, just looking at his stuff. And what stuff it was. RIP Frank, thanks for being such a good friend. And that's one hell of a lake you have in your front lawn, too. Say hi to Ellie for me, she's there with you now.

[actarusmlt]

R.I.P dear Frazetta! You are always in our hearts! :(

[fadarrell]

this man's work inspires mea to this day....RIP Frazetta......I work on my illustrations with you ALWAYS in my mind....

[wendileona]

Yeah, no CGI, ever, can top the work this man did. I mean, since I was a child, his work gave me such an emotional impact on all kinds of levels, still does. I hadn't known of his passing, his work has a life of its own, it will carry his spirit. Thank you Mr. Frazetta for the inspiration.

[starlite111111]

Never another will touch the magic of Frazetta's visual and feel

[locombianisimo01]

RIP

[ArtistZamira]

R.I.P Frank!!! you were a true inspiration to me!!!

[njblack73]

I was in a bookstore, maybe about twelve years old, when i saw the cover on a paperback book that stopped me in my tracks. There was something about the power of the image that had me rivited. I bought the book because I liked the cover. The book was about some ancient warrior called Conan. That incident made me a Conan fan as a kid, and a Frazetta fan for life. R.I.P. Frank.

[introducing68]

I met Mr. Frazetta, his wife Ellie and Frank Jr.......they were all very kind to me. RIP Frank Frazetta and Ellie Frazetta!

[dan77man]

JUST TO SEE THIS MAN's talent was like winning the lotto, MAY YOUR SOUL REST IN PEACE.

[LordSeverian]

Frank Frazetta was as much a badass in real life as the characters in his paintings. he was the GREATEST fantasy artists of all time, and every working artist or illustrator today owes him a huge debt. NO ONE will ever come close to his raw talent or ability.

His legacy will last forever...

[LordSeverian]

R.I.P Frank Frazetta

[livery9]

massive respect!

[chaozengine]

Without Frazetta, comics would still be considered '"funnies".

[judith703]

R.I.P. I mourn my loss.

[dae3xt]

lance, I didn't know you uploaded videos on youtube.. I just subscribed..

[cha5]

Painting With Fire is one of my favorite films on my DVD shelf,

R.I.P. Frank

[EvilGeniusJay]

truly an inspiration and master of his craft...one of the greatest painters of the 20th century..a huge loss to the art world..RIP Frank, you live on in your artwork forever

[cdahl9]

Rest in Peace Frank you were a inspiration to many artists and fantasy lovers around the world..

[skotiFD]

He is the Greatest Fantasy Illustrator of our time

We Love you frank.

Your work will remain timeless my friend.

Thoughts and Prayers to your friends and family.

You inspired us all!

[jmstudio]

This is an amazing film about a gifted genius. If you get the opportunity, take a little time and watch this gem. RIP Mr. F. Paint on BABY!

[miketrappart]

A master, good bye Frank

[SatansMullet]

I just heard he died :( we will all miss you Mr Frazetta! rest in peace

[JagdWehrwolf]

May he go to a better world where the plains are vast, jewels to steal a-plenty, and enemies and monsters fall at his feet, as well as the beautiful women... Another of great heroes of our youth passes... :'(((

[kayser152]

R.I.P to the legend! His influence lives on! Frazetta was the greatest fantasy/comic artist to EVER LIVE.

[HATZELL]

Frank Frazetta is quite irreplacable.....he will be missed!

[palsaradise]

Jackson, Milius, Miller and Cameron still haven't touched the cinematic splendor of this man's work and probably no one ever will. RIP to the goddamn legend.

[TheDailyJournalVideo]

Jackson, Milius, Miller and Cameron still haven't touched the cinematic splendor of this man's work and he never laid a hand on camera. RIP to the goddamn legend.

[Jmurray5150]

A really sad day, it's starting to sink in. Feels to me like when we lost Elvis, then Scott, Bonham & Lennon (a rough 1980!) and Jack Kirby ...

[jamiecoursey]

RIP Frank! You are missed already!

[grafight]

A sad day indeed, for the loss of the Great Frank Frazetta, but also a time to celebrate his long life and monumental body of work as his great legacy to the world. We'll miss you, Frank!

[Najos1]

R.I.P Frank Frazetta.

[satanslunchbox]

=FRANK FRAZETTA WAS THE BEST=

R.I.P. February 9, 1928 May 10, 2010

[MrDoriefs]

a true legend who will be sorely missed by us all.

[HBomb81]

Here's to the legend.

[alfsal67]

R.I.P. Frank, who passed away today sadly. Highly recommended film also.

[dan77man]

frank frazetta bad ass no one like him , his the greatest artist to walk this earth.

[videojeff01]

hello? what about that opening sequence with the animated Conan? that was fucking awesome!!! one of the greatest pieces of animation I've ever seen!

[meesterschilders]

placed into my playlist of Frank Frazetta, thanks

[JuanStrongZ]

YYEAAAHHHHH!!!!!

[hellbys]

FRAZETTA IS THE BEST!!!

[mrmolinodelahoz]

I love the masculine sensuality and heroicism of this art.

For me it represents our physical lives in a constant battle with death.

But the process doesn have it´s vivid moments.

Great anatomical understanding beyond almost anyone in history.

[Wartonite]

Neal Adams said what?! Now I gotta see this film!

All joking aside, the main stream art world discovered comic artists too late. How can they understand Frazetta without the context of EC and the impact of Wally Wood and others? What do they know about Alex Nino, BWS and Jeff Jones?

[mittROMNEY666]

@Wartonite

those other guys you mentioned are not in frazetta's league

[JustineLaLoba]

EC fans have a saying...Wood is good but Frazetta is betta....

[thejimm2009]

i love this documentary,,,it's a must-see for Frazetta fans. I watched it over a year ago on IFC and am glad i recorded it. thank you for the posting, cinemachine. in2theabyss and i were just discussing this docu a few hours ago. ( i knew you'd like it in2:)) . warduke just took the words right out of my mouth...Frazetta's works are magical!

[in2theabyss17]

I have admired and worshipped Frank Frazetta as my favorite fantasy artist since I was 6 years old. His museum was temporarily here in Florida but sadly Mr. Frazetta moved back to Stroudsberg, Philadelphia and took his paintings with him and opened up an even better museum...I hope to go visit it soon!

[mrmolinodelahoz]

@in2theabyss17 My parents lived in Stroudsburg and find it difficult to believe that any artist with this exciting creativity would choose to live in such a dead boring place.

He must live inside his imagination and not Stroudsburg.

[in2theabyss17]

@mrmolinodelahoz Well, he said he wanted to take it to the p[lace where he raised his kids. He has always owned property there but I guess he saw fit to make his museum in that special place. Yeah, the museum was here in Florida temporarily while he was having the new one built in Stroudsberg. Maybe he does live in his imagination. Alot is going on being that his wife just died in July 2009 and his son Frank Jr just broke into the museum with a backhoe and tried to take 90 paintings.

[warduke]

The great thing about Frank Frezetta was he never wrote thought provoking books, never did anything musical or was never the leader of a country or anything like that. Yet I've been inspired by Frezetta paintings all my life since I was a kid to always achieve the highest goals in my personal life. Whatever it's a physical, mental, or spiritual goal his paintings always motivated me in a way that words or deeds could not. There's just something magical about his work!

[fatlover007]

I love Frank Frazetta's paintings. He is my favorite artist.

[JuanStrongZ]

...-UUUFFF!!!!... Este documental es digno del máximo artista del genero fantástico, este hombre es una leyenda... que gran video, muy épica y emocionante la presentación!!!..

[SkyfireTheFox]

I saw this film on cable and both it and Frazetta Rocks. I'm getting the DVD!

[Spideysenses67]

Hands down the greatest illustrator of all-time. Breathtaking paintings all from his imagination. He had the unbelievable desire to learn and became a god. Such an inspiration to me as an artist.

[shniddles]

FF Rocks. Hard to believe he used to do artwork for "Lil' Abner".

[Goldowolf]

Beautiful art! Great video!

[chazz916]

frazetta is god in art.

[xenoghost01001]

Oh fuck yeah! I so love his Deathdealer series! Deathdealer is the shit! oh Simon Bisley too.lol

[sociablyclussy]

There is one Simon The Biz Jaguar God Oil where his blue artery in his chest is so damn cool ! That painting looks like Frazetta did that piece. It is so good. Mike Hoffman is my favorite Frazetta Stylist. I have his "Swinging Dealer" Dealer has the high ground and a goon get his head chopped off pencil $300 ebay free shipping !! Bitching cool ass!!!!! The Onearmbiker knows the shit!!! 420

[theultimateninja]

what the!? i need to go out and buy that!

[onins228]

omg how does this dude paints? the real thing or digital? however he does it, he's effin great...you're my boy frank! rather, im your boy...lol

[NeolightAnon]

He's a traditional artist and did a lot of work back in the 70's.

The guy is a savant, and just pwned the entire fantasy art scene. He's the guy who made conan who he is. Great fucking artist and an inspiration to most illustrators.

[sociablyclussy]

He was born 1928. Comic Artist at age 16, first in America. Walked with holes in his shoes in the early 60's no one would hire him, his art too old fashion. America would not know real at if it bit them in the ass. He paints his best painting at age 81 left handed after a many stokes. Computer bullshit my ass , you must of grown up on Pokemon ! 420 His Grandson Jacob ,The Frazetta Prince is working his ass off the be the man like Gramps ! His only Jesus art in this video , awsome. 420

[onins228]

amazing! hahaha....could you just chill man? i was just asking...now i see how ignorant that question was...lol

[onins228]

and yeah...i did grow up on pokemon an i hate it...

[sociablyclussy]

We love this art everything is cooool !!! 420

[Drummer1285]

JOHN CARTER FTW!!!!!

[CookiezSC]

Frank Frazetta is the king of us all fantasy artists!

[animejoao]

hail to frank, when you die heaven and hell looks like his drawings. hail to a great artist.

[sociablyclussy]

Those Hell paintings were done in the 60's fast as he could shake a stick about 6 hours. Fucking Amazing !!!!!!!!!

[JJM741220]

Gath of Baal is the pimp

[Fantasyinmusic]

that was awesome

[superzaff]

One the best artist!

[80085u]

that song is on oblivion

[hurdl3thed34d]

nope

[MWWILSON1]

Frazetta makes the best when it comes to this type of work.

[Orklord90]

Conan and his women is the best arts he had done!

[ReneeNme]

All hail Frazetta!!

[FuzzyDuck]

By the way, is the music in the trailer original and composed for the film, or from something else? I love it! It's so fitting.

[LOLR0FLMAO]

@FuzzyDuck Not sure, but it wouldn't surprise me if it were scored by Frank himself!

[FuzzyDuck]

Great film, and a phenomenal artist. This trailer always gives me the chills.

[tavokoti]

well this is getting really weird but frazetta rules !!!!!!!!!!

[onearmbiker]

Only God is a better artist! God was the first artist, everyone else in a copy cat. Fire and Ice is the best cartoon ever. The Vegas painting,not my favorite subject. It shows the best of his ability. Perfict, it should be used in the Vegas Commercials! I love the ones were his paints as fast as he can shake a stick. The neanderthauls , Wizard and the demon, there is on Dracular paint done super fast. WOW!!!!

[Orklord90]

i like the Conan arts and Women arts!

[itzjoeymac]

LOL... you seriously underestimate THE RAW POWER of the EUROPEAN JUGGERNAUT. And you are a sad paranoid GEEK.

[cha5]

I've bought the DVD of Painting With Fire love it, I really want to see the Frazetta museum sometime, I wish they could set up some kind of exibit at this years

New York Comicon being as it's just across the state line in Pennsylvania, Wishful thinking I guess.

[onearmbiker]

Frank Jr. is a lazy ass piece of shit coward. A lazy ass golf pro. Frazetta said Frank Jr. had the gift. Frank Jr.'s art is beautiful. Too fucking lazy/dumn ass. They would not have shit if it was not for Miss Ellie. Frazetta is a stupid business man, but the greatest artist that ever breathe air. That's what I learned from this video. Buy it today! Buy Frazetta prints. Support Frazetta! Frank Jr. could of been a college art professor and subduce all the girls, what a loser! Art knowledge gone!

[Sigfrido1986]

Sure, man. You can start drawing right now and show the entire world how should him have lived his life...

...fss

[kull20]

i have most of his art books, he's the best!

[marguedas]

Frazetta kick ass 4 ever!!!

[marguedas]

Frazetta kick ass 4 ever!!!

[Almuric7]

Frazetta is probably the best we're going to ever have for Fantastic Art, he's the real deal: no copying photo's here. You could put the Egyptian Queen (or many of Frazetta's best) beside a Great like Da Vinci, or Vermeer, and it wouldn't look out of place (though sometimes the subject matter would). How many Artists of today can you say that of?

[itzjoeymac]

Frank Frazetta is indeed awesome for one-shot fantasy but JACK KIRBY is a far greater conceptualist AND his art manages to have more RAW POWER.

[Spideysenses67]

Nobody's artwork has more RAW POWER and than Frazetta's

[ReneeNme]

Salvador Dali Spideysenses67 ? I'm not saying one is more powerful than the other, they just happen to be my two favorite artists / painters.

[Spideysenses67]

O my bad then. I wonder who would be more important to their genre, Frazetta to fantasy illustration or Kirby to comics? I guess it has to be Kirby however Frazetta has been cited by many artists from different areas as being an influence to them

[onearmbiker]

Why does everyone use Boris and Frazetta in the same sentence? Greg Hilderbrandt is much more better painter/designer than Boris. Boris is a Perubian cartoonist. Brom is better than Boris. Julie Bell is the best female artist in the world. Her water colors are the shit. If she would only break off from his style. FREE JULIE BELL! Boris is tacky perfect cheesy. Frazetta art is no photogragh! FRAZETTA SPOILED ROTTEN!

[TheHsza]

true master

[112358132133]

frazetta is the god of fantastic art , fuck boris vallejo!!

[ReneeNme]

We love ya Frank..you are a Master.

[rampage000001]

Frank is da man! Love his work beyond any and all. He is the Godfather!

[metobeque]

holy crap... frazetta is the shit. long life to the man!

[hemilcarius]

frazetta's art is just amazing

[roargathor]

I was at his museum this weekend. The paintings are absolutly phenominal to look at. They jump out of the frame. His wife is an awsome woman too.

[madqueenmadb]

Frank is one of the few artists whose work hits you like a ton of bricks. Every museum needs several Frazettas.

[wcbombers21]

I really believe that Frank Frazetta is thee best artist ever period! and why I say that think that frank has never used pictures all his drawings and paintings are from his imagination, and when looking at them they diffidently spark worlds of wonder in your imagination god bless Frank. and Thank-you god for giving us such a gift!

[rastan696]

Frank Frazetta must have gone through a lot in life though, to create such amazing pictures, as is evident in his work in Fire And Ice.

[desotowright]

Franzetta is the god of art

[tintagel74]

hoffbabe that's a beautiful comment. you can't put it better than that.

[parrakm]

unreal

[foto101]

Man, I bow to him. He can have my children as slaves, if the master so wishes. hehe

[Kortoso]

That opening sequence is overwhelming.

[tavokoti]

I have the docum. REALLY COOL!!!!!! AND HES THE MAN!!!!!!

[stryfe1000]

Frazetta is awesome. You guys should see Fire and Ice. Very cool.

[elquetemonta]

gotta see this documentary

[Fawksian21]

Frank Frazetta is still alive and living somewhere in the Pocono mountains of my home-state (Pennsylvania). However, he's very old and I'm not sure if he still does any artwork. A museum of his illustrations just opened a couple years ago and you can visit its website online.

[sternforpres]

Bet your butt he still paints. Visit the museum in PA, I did and got a personal tour! The museum just opened in May of 2007. He showed me his latest painting, done with his left hand, since he cannot use his right any more.

[onearmbiker]

The Vampy/Lizard painting commissioned in 1998-99 Harris comics was done left handed. Vampy has a soft fuzzy look to her, absolutly stunning! The stone work on the floor is perfict art like the Vegas painting! My favorite Vampy oil. He is both handed now in the brain, using all of his brain. He's trapped in a decaying body. An oil painting takes 3 days instead of one. If evey artist made themselves both handed they would become better! It look me a year to feel normal. I wish I was born left.

[dmilvia]

the master!!!

[1alopezpr]

Thanks for posting this,Frazetta for me one of the best(cause there are so many),like:Boris,Julie,Elmore,­Islei,Joe Jusco(Vampirella),Alex Ross,Achielos,Luis Rollo,Milo Manara,Texeira,Petter Roseller,Sam Keith,Todd Macfarlene,Marc Silvestri,J.Gonzales(Vampirell­a),etc.

[rampage000001]

Frazetta is the best! Death Dealer is awesome as is all his works. Everything I drew I drew well! Wow. Canada loves you Frank.

[welshworm]

Im still waiting for this movie to come out in the U.K., in fact ive been waiting for about 33 years for this...looks like ill have to get it on NTSC.

[masacrist]

yeah this guy is a legend

[bratpet]

he's the greatest ever in the fantasy genre, I was blown away by the intro.. awe inspiring

[MadScout]

It's also on the Fire and Ice 2-disc DVD!!! Go to Blue Underground's website.

[Taranau]

Absolutely LOVE the "moving Conan" sequence in the opening!That's what Fire and Ice was supposed to look like...Easier to do,nowadays,than it was back then... Think of the possibilties.A Death Dealer movie that actually looks like moving Frazetta pictures...BAM!!!

[Taranau]

When I was a teen,in the mid-70's,I saw a black and white picture of Vampirella.She was the most beautifull woman I had ever seen,and she was just a drawing.Well,not just a drawing,she was a Frazetta!!! I have been a great admirer of his work ever since.I have five of his books.I'm thinking about this fabled DVD.Thanx.

[holeymoley24]

I saw it on cable and ordered it IMMEDIATELY! Awesome doc on my IDOL!!(I still gotta buy Fire & Ice, though)

[dsgm]

Frank is unequaled.

[rampage000001]

I agree with you dsgm. Boris has some nice talent that can't be denied. Vallejo is also ranked up high but Frank for me is #1.

[go73]

what a great trailer!! frank frazetta has been a huge influence and inspiration to me as an artist!! what an amazing fella eh?! thanks for posting this!! :)

[go73]

what a great trailer!! frank frazetta has been a huge influence and inspiration to me as an artist!! what an amazing fella eh?! thanks for posting this!! :)

[BuckyBit]

just think about it, if pixar would do a whole cgi-frazetta movie in the style of that Conan-intro...

[BuckyBit]

One MASTER to rule them ALL! My childhood would not have been the same without him and his work.

[Suboloc]

I got the DVd, anyone know where the easter eggs are on it?

Anyway Frazett's Conan is the ultimate Conan. EVER. All else now just copy him lol :)

[evacross]

Omg i have to buy it! thanks for posting!

[Stevers80]

I'm gonna go out and buy it on DVD right now!

[Burankhan]

This freaking rules.
