'1884' Terry Gilliam presents '1884 Yesterdays Future'... Animation test..

[galloway62042009]

I could watch a movie like this

[mikecane2008]

The host was motion-controlled CGI? The audience and crowd were actual miniatures?

[moonbeamchaos]

terry gilliam...the"demented american" of the pythons. hip hip---hooray!

[Ephisus]

Really interesting style

[Audrey7648]

Love it!!! More Please!!

[sneakyrabbits]

looks much better than that other trailer

[xxtiaan]

did gilliam have anything to do with this or is the title just to drag in vewers?

[MrReded69]

I hope they really do make this movie!

[galolito]

not quite up to Zeman.

[TubbiusMaximus]

Anyone else reminded of H. G. Well's The First Men in the Moon from this.

[SB111058]

@TubbiusMaximus

Yes, and we are talking to our Lawyers over Mr Wells blatant rip off of our idea...

[shitchops]

I am on acid right now and i have no idea what just happened..  beleive it or not

[AnkoraFeonix]

@shitchops I'm not on acid atm but I can relate to your statement. I just came here coz I love Steampunk and I love Terry Gilliam!

[gizmonator25]

wait..what? How the devil?? ehm..hello? doe anyone know how to get back to 1848?

that blasted dr. grimm always! he said he was sure this time! oh well...

[MaximusTheHeretek]

So...exactly HOW is Terry Gilliam involved in this?

[shitchops]

@MaximusTheHeretek good question sir !!!

[AngryVGFur]

funny thing is, a steam-powered space shuttle is actually plausible (in zero gravity, at least)

[SB111058]

That would be nice...

[Pynaegan]

Please, please, please,.......

please, please, PULEEEEEEEEEEZE, let this not be a hoax or a false hope. May it truly come to pass in the form of a feature length movie. And may it be SSSSSOOOOOoooooo good that they never follow it up with a part two there by cheapening the former masterpiece.

[pizidoro]

Release date 2012:

imdb.com/title/tt1801025/fullc­redits

[tetrisclock]

So Terry Gilliam did this?

How does the description match up to the actual video though? Is this only a preview? If so, where can I find the full picture?

[3089280288]

The London underground originally used steam engines.

[ovician]

Anyone else get recommended this after watching Last Exile? Great recommendation Youtube. I'm ok with this.

[504jec]

It's funny how we always predicted to have flying cars every 20 years since the 1400's

[uotiug]

I worked on it !!!

[zillaje]

i've never seen anything like this.  i love it.

[VivaNewVegas]

Well. We're not quite there with out steam powered space craft. Not quite. As for the moon becoming a colony of Great Britain, well, their ego's are too big already.

[geomonicdotorg]

I have one critique for this - the 'futurists' of yesteryear generally assumed that the "gadgets, contraptions and vehicles of tomorrow" would be as artistically and ornately advanced as the technology. So, whereas the futurists of the 1950's and '60's all pictured everyone in the future wearing shiny mylar jumpsuits, the Victorian and pre-Victorian futurists envisioned all things technologically advanced being richly baroque. Including fashion designs. I did not see that in the characters.

[thehumangunstore]

The moon allways was a colony of " gwait bewittin

[EntertainmentUnhinge]

Absolutely Spectacular animation as always. Truly a great talent.

[Evan1151]

Wtf did I just watch?

[legolas5743]

I like the style a lot, but the video seemed to end up nowhere. It didn't have any push or driving force. But again, kudos to the style, man.

[Mentocthemindtaker]

Oh, wow, this is so amazingly absurd.

I love it.

[RandomStrategy]

what type of animating is this called

[NineInchRear1]

This just looks amazing & gives me tons of ideas for my next steam punk model project:).........hope it does get released.

[MajoraProject]

So is this still in production? whats the deal?

[2d3Danim]

@MajoraProject : not yet in production, but soon... this was only the trailer, in which we were able to test technical stuff for later. Now, we're just eager to begin !

[SB111058]

Frankentsein?

[TheWolfMan1941]

@SB111058 Hell. Yes. A Frankenstein reference!

[NelsonStJames]

@SB111058 Very good. It's good to know that some people still watch and appreciate older films.

[rickydick4805379]

Frankentsein reference anyone? lol

[MrMichehl]

Super ! ! !

[BOOOZB]

But god is stupid anyway . Why did it create Jews ? which makes all of his creations useless for all other Peoples . Some revenge against his mother or ?

[BaneOfLannister]

@BOOOZB ...wow...

[BOOOZB]

It's funtastik images , but , I can't believe man will fly with steam baloons !! If god want us to fly , it should have built us with natural gas generator inside us ,and , er ,hmm yeah , he did it for some guys, may be , but anyway they can't fly either. I love this topic , it's an easy way to dismantle & point out what stupid peoples have done with our science ?

[MajoraProject]

this made me laugh so much. love th emusic

[RansomBackus7]

Terry Gilliam has done a lot of steampunk: Baron Munchausen, Brazil, Erik The Viking, Time Bandits...to name a few. When I think of steampunk in movies I first think of him.

[TheEPICtrainrider]

Well that was seriously entertaining. Great Job sir. Here's a cookie.

[iamreptarhearmeroar]

FANTASTIC animation. A wonderful book that has a steampunk, path-not-taken- surreal- tone is The Arival. It has no words, but the illustrations are amazing.

[RoscoesRiffs]

And now we know to whom we may attribute that "Face on Mars." Thank you Victorians, and Long Live the Queen!

[Telektroscope]

@RoscoesRiffs

Amen to that I'd say ! ^_^

[spcglider]

Does anyone know the purpose? Is this a pitch reel item that Terry G is currently trying to sell a studio on?

[zenbeer]

fun to watch, wish the story were longer.

[wosuh]

eh, this is a joke, right? watch Steamboy.

[MikeTaylorLives]

@wosuh

It's a Terry Gilliam work. You know, the guy who did the animated bits for Monty Python and went on to produce "The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus"? It's a joke in the sense that it's deliberately silly, but Gilliam treats his work quite seriously.

[wosuh]

@MikeTaylorLives

as a huge Gilliam fan ever since Brazil, i am just seriously concerned. he definitely should check out what's been done in Steamboy, a bit childish yet beautifully and masterfully executed animation.

[KarlBSpi1]

Thanks! Great video. I wonder how much work is needed to produce an animation like this.

[jnelson4765]

Terry Gilliam doing steampunk. A childhood dream I never knew I had has been fulfilled.

[panamagirl73]

Yes! YES! YESSSS!!!!! Steamtastic!!

[pollobionico]

Simply Miasmic!

[musketeersteveliddle]

great animation, looks like bschoe2 is a jealous muppet who aspires to produce such work, but realises he or she does not really have a clue where to start :)

[SB111058]

@musketeersteveliddle

I recon you hit the nail on the head, sir...

[SAFbikes]

@musketeersteveliddle start by doing some stop motion with an action figure or claymation

[musketeersteveliddle]

@SAFbikes had to look right back, my 1st post was over a year ago :)

[TEudmunki86]

i liked how they borrowed ideas from an annoying orange.

[bschoe2]

total shit. fuck steampunk

[OasisFae]

That was adorable! Loved the animation. :)

[TheInvisiblePanda]

boring



[NotAnotherClinton]

Bravo sir.

[bkruschwitz]

When is the movie coming?!?

[ed2bob]

This is beautiful.

[EMBEEization]

nice

[maxevry]

Amazing! So charming, wondrous!

[mysteron007]

Great Stuff , Keep Puppets and Models Alive :)

[adamhowe2409]

This looks amazing! I can't wait for the final film!
