Marlon Brando as Jor-El

[eobb1]

They went through all that effort and amazing cgi trickery just to have his face stuck behind a giant blurry ice pillar.

What a waste

[TheRevJonnyNemo]

This is even better than creepy young Jeff Bridges in Tron 2

[3finsurf]

Search 'Jor els Wisdom' on iTunes for the Superman Soundboard App. Featuring Marlon Brando!!

[kookookachoo85]

6 people remembered him

[h4ck3rk14]

you do not remember me

[mrBoston891]

they went through all that trouble to put him in there for half a second?

[Mybeckham7]

Wats the name of the song?

[coolrob2157]

What is the music!?

[coolrob2157]

I really like the music! Erie sounding... Kinda gave me goosebumps!

[HerrKryo]

its the leitmotif of the t-x in terminator 3

[coolrob2157]

How do you know this? I cannot find out...

[kingrexrex666]

i wonder if they could model me sucking a dick....that would be a good way to keep me out of polidicks.....:-)

[TurtleHump]

Shame the movie was balls.

[dkim68]

Damn. All that hard work. A beautiful model of Marlon Brando. Perfect texturing, etc. So realistic you'd think he came back from the dead. So what do they do? They put him behind a bunch of crystals so you can hardly see him. I would've rather they made him a floating head-type 3D hologram or something. So we could truly admire the work of Rhythm & Hues.

[jayce79]

@dkim68

I think the should have had a big Projected head like in the original , and a slight reflexion or whatever on the crystals as well.

[EmpireStrikesOut]

"whats the song from? i like the beat "

Sounds like Terminator 2, but is probably custom.

Fuck this shit rocks.

[tlatol12345]

El tema musical se llama "Hooked on multiphonics", de Pete Anthony y Marco Beltrami

[hogh20]

whats the song from? i like the beat

[dastardlydude67]

That was one of the most ingenious and risky things any producer in Hollywood could have ever done. Funny how risky things are what makes those producers successful in the first place... oh yeah, and their genius.

[thanqualhighseer]

i wonder how long it will be be until you can take all of the work ever recorded by brando and created a audio libery, then made a programe to mimmic any word,sound,lip movement and facial expression.

[bluesrunthegame]

You don't need an audio library; a few clips for format analysis will do just fine. Check a piece of software called "Praat".

[uruseiranma]

Still, what they do here looks much better than what was seen 13 years ago with 'Forrest Gump.' The lip replacements and manipulations when you look at those now, seem rather 'poppy.'

[Potrimpo]

Agreed. But then again look at what they had to work with back then.

[jflores85]

he turns from a clown into a bunny in 15 seconds

[sipitiripiti]

a la mierda que copado, le habran pagado a brando? no creo porque esta muerto. mas vale que haya salido en alguna otra escena, sino cualquiera

[dowling1981]

he looks like the bloke wot was in The Godfather

[DingitDuck]

I hope Brando returns in Superman: Man Of Steel

[EmperorWilly]

So they go through all the trouble of making the 3D Brando head as realistic as they can, with textures, hand-painting, etc., and what do they do with it? Hide it within a crystal that distorts the image and has enough glares to undo all the effort that went into making it. What a waste.

[DingitDuck]

I agree, in part. I think the reason they went through all the trouble of recreating his face in 3D, was to update the quality of the footage. Think about it, the film is 30 years old, & would be a huge contrast between the quality of film today. They would have to hide his face much more if they, in fact kept the original footage as it was.

[koldproxy]

@EmperorWilly that's because it's called "professionalism". making every single small detail perfect :)

[flamehead92e]

hi

[retread01]

I don't think it looks all that great, which is the fault of the artist, not the technology. His bottom lip looks wrong and unlike Brando's real lip and the top lip has some strange shine on it. At no point does the final product look real.

[queenanthai]

Oh, technology.

I still want a flying car, though.

[dpakolypse]

i think we found the new club hit "you do not remember me"

[pouceeter]

IMF too

[pouceeter]

reminds the "wag the dog" (1997)

PS:"Why does a dog wag its tail? Because a dog is smarter than its tail. If the tail were smarter, the tail would wag the dog."

[igoopy]

awesome man

[dazedNdisorientated]

...dude...thats some scary shit rite there man!

[Zaranyzerak]

In a word....wow!

[gerardway]

WHOA....

[rafaelsgomes]

Technology is giving us the alien tallent !

[VendettaMan]

Technology is really catching up with us.

[Quixote]

Wow.
