  • Love that.Great Idea i think!!! Baaad for Us uuuh because we are Apes;D

  • I wish there would be a Sphere 2 film...

  • @1IamLegend1 me too... This movie is so underrated

    Big flop? bad reviews?

    Honestly i think that a lot of ppl just didnt have the mental capacity to understand it cause its a movie u have to pay a lot of attention to..

    PPL dont get it and naturally say "it sucked"

  • I remember having hot flashes watching this.

  • Normen- an alien being who has been stuck down here for over 300 years , and hasnt had any emotional contact with another emotional being.

    Harry- whats your point

    Normen- what happens when he get angry.

    that part sent chills down my spine.

  • now that i think about it....it didn't feel right being in the military and doing lsd, i thought it might take my strength and menatl/physical abilities away from me and a fear of getting caught.

  • i don't remember telling this story but i came in on leave from oki and took lsd and watched this movie at rob's house.....that i do believe is the last time i took lsd!

  • "I Am Happy"

    Lol.!!

  • I don't why some people don't like this movie, but I think it's one of the greatest in sci-fi genre.

  • @harrison28514 i agree... its my fav movie of all time!

  • I loved the book. The movie was true to it for the most part. Wasn't the sphere silver?

  • Pandorum is so much better

  • Aww, you missed the best part - IMO.

    TED: I'll bet if you put a laser micrometer on this, it'd be a perfect sphere.

    Perfect to a thousandth of an inch. That's a message in and of itself.

    HARRY: Really?

    BARNES: What do you mean?

    TED: When Pope Benedict asked Giotto to prove his worth as an artist Giotto drew a perfect circle, freehand. Perfection. It's a powerful message.

  • Amazing I just read the book and it is a very good adaptation... that Jerry is really freaking

  • The space ship is a HUMAN ship from the future.

  • I just finished the book and really the movie is much like it but I thought the book was better

  • oh this was total mindfuck back then.

  • Even after knowing what will happen I'm still thrilled every time I watch it. No horror gave me this feeling!

  • The book was much better...

  • DAMN! the movie has much more to offer

  • how can they tell its american

  • Anyone else wish that Michael Crichton were still around to write these great, super-imaginative Sci-Fi novels? What a talent that guy had!

    R.I.P.

  • The book is 100 times better, they should have saved themselves the time and never made this

  • 2:33

    

  • @SlyNicolai BAD THINGS

  • One of my all time faves and will forever be! in my opinion its right up there with the Alien series (which i absolutely love just as much). dustan hoffman is the man, and so is jackson, and sharon is just the bomb, she rocks face.

  • RIP 90's movies :'(

  • Great book lousy movie.

  • personally i believe it to be one of the greatest sci-fi films ever made not because i watch it constantly but just from the originality and skill, not to mention it's obvious influence on subsequent films and even video games.

  • there wasn't any squid snake anything they were only the people's fears because the sphere gives them the halucinattions and when harry sleeps he dreams and makes the people's fears come true

  • @lumberjum555 Harry wasnt jerry jerry was his dream self did you even watch the whole movie? The sphere granted them all REAL power

  • you know why this movie is so awesome its because it is hard to understand like they said that that U.F.O was crashed under water for not a long time but it was actually underwater for 300 years Norman said that and like harry was actually jerry

  • what site can I watch this for free?

  • This was on today! It was pretty awesome. I had never seen it before. Anybody know how it did in theaters in 1998???

  • @Bobbysboy ....check out wikipedia....it said that it did absolutely terrible in theaters

  • bentotheclarke the squid is not the alien. The alien is the sphere that gave Harry and others the power to manifest things like the giant squid.

  • 2.58 so is the alien a squid? anyone know the answer?

  • @bentotheclarke No..there is no alien...It's somewhat about manifestation.

  • carlos: there is an alien, is the sphere, and it gives you the power to manifest anything you want:::even your more terribly fear or nightmare

  • @darkstarkc99

    The whole movie is about the sphere giving the humans "the gift" The gift of being able to manifest anything one pleases

    The squid was just Harrys manifestation, there wasnt any physical being, except other than the sphere itself which must have come from somewhere in space where the Americans eventually picked up

  • @darkstarkc99 Yes there is a alien, proof: Samuel L. Jackson character: Whaterver is in that sphere is out and free to act...

  • @bentotheclarke the squid is a product of harrys mind because the sphere gives thw power for imagination to become real

  • @bentotheclarke there is no alien in the entire movie in fact when you watch it you will be thrown for one hell of a loop.

  • @bentotheclarke kk thanks everyone i bought the film watched and liked it.

  • @bentotheclarke i think the "alien" is basically just the power that they discovered, the power to make their dreams come true. it was an alien technology of some sort that landed there but in the end they realized that the human race was not ready for it. but there r no actual 'little green men'. wen u think bout it, very much a human thing of course , the psych thing- about the power of the mind and wat we're able to convince ourselves of, n how we get lost in ideas that can seem so real.

  • @bentotheclarke no the alien made the squid

  • @bentotheclarke The alien is an unkown being that created the squid

  • @bentotheclarke no its a jellyfish

  • Is the part right after 3:57 from the actual movie?

  • @ivanhidayat It's all from the film except for the font

  • ► The sphere is a basic form, it contains a new content and a container.

    Forget the sphere....................:) Be Free ♥ Be happy ♥ . Be the prosperity of yourself and so ourself.

  • OMG! I don't know what compelled me to click on this..but you posted it on December 12th!!

  • @maxwesty That is quite a coincidence isn't it? I wouldn't have guessed the significance before. but now It's very interesting. It only reinforces my view of "Things happen for a reason" :<))

  • one of the problems with the movie, at the end of the trailer with the countdown, beth was unconcious and she started the explosives timer so i dont know why she was worrying so much....in the book anyway. they should have followed the book more.

  • Comment removed

  • great movie

  • 0:15 "What did they tell you?" That is singer Huey Lewis.

  • @matt484991 Hmmm, I don't know....I guess it does look like him.maybe it is

  • i loved this book. i must've read it three or four times by now. great trailer

  • @Frogger1093 Thanks so much :<)

  • 3:34 SAMUIL HAD A DREAM HE WAS WHITE...

  • NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO ON NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NONO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO

  • I only watched this movie 4 hours ago.GREAT MOVIE...WAS IT FICTION?yOU DECIDE.......

  • 11:11:11

  • The book is amazing

  • So...Theres a "Cube" movie, a "sphere" movie... Now we need "Triangle" and "Squere"!!!

  • @Frieddaze420 Ok!....If you insist!...Deleated!.....Moron!

  • epic movie that will be viewed in future history as metropolis is to us today

  • One of my all-time fav sci-fi flicks and watching this I want to see it all over again, great work man!

  • @Hyperluminal Thank you :<) I'm Glad you liked it.

  • Sphere was a good film, its plot twists really made you think.

  • i hate this movie

  • @Jason026P Then It doesn't make much sense to watch the trailer to a film you hate, Or did you just feel the need to post a silly comment?

  • The movie was really awesome until the very very end where the sphere just disappeared... that was a little gay.

  • Dude, AWESOME!

  • @filmscores Thank you :) Glad you enjoyed it

  • i love the scene where Harry (Samuel Jackson) says 'You know, We're all going to die down here'

  • Yeah..that film has some great lines :)

  • One of my fav movies.If only there were more movies like this...

  • @Vrisak93

    lots of movies likes this, do some research. try imdb's related video's.

    some titles: sunshine, knowing, event horizon, twelve monkeys, the abyss, the book of eli and so on

  • @Angelslayer007 Tnx,ill look up these titles

  • Michael Chriton Formula:

    -humans make/do something cool using technology

    -a team of specialists is called in to check the shit out

    -it seems like cool shit at first

    -then it fucks up

    -people die

    -we realize that technology is bad, but human error is worse.

    Michael Chrichton is sweet, don't get me wrong, but, fuck. As fa as the movies go, Jurassic Park, Andromeda Strain, Westworld, Sphere, all pretty much exactly the same.

  • Haha yeah, kind of the same as HG Wells eh?

  • I was a read a book two times and wach movie about 10 times, it's so awsome, I LOVE SF

    Michael Crichton was a genius

  • michael crichton was a genius.

  • If you think the movie is good, you will be amazed by the book! Sooo much better, the book is amazing and I enjoyed all 371 pages!

  • @chessdude3 Agreed.

  • My theory is that this movie is the sequel to Event Horizon.

  • HOLY MIND FUCK. never thought of that, need to watch these movies in order now.

  • You are right. These movies are a little bit similar.

  • Sequel? I would say prequel.

  • @quantumOflux well that depends, did michael write event horizon. he did one hell of a job with JP and LWOJP.

  • event horizon is basically a haunted castle in space (the writter said this), the sphere is about the corruption of the human mind and that if we were given a gift that could cure all our ails- it would end up killing us as we cant stop thinking bad things. if anything- this film is like Solaris.

  • @quantumOflux Actually, what they find in the bottom of the Sea is the spaceship they sent out in the future to investigate black holes, but since they never told anyone about the Sphere and time travel, the computer calls it an unknown entry event.

  • Wow, awesome quality this was a great movie. Nice job making this!

  • Thanks, glad you liked it

  • amazing video! michael and hoffman are brillant here. the others too

  • thanks

  • Michael Crichton R.I.P ;( this is my fav movie...

  • Unknown Entry Event

  • fear the unknown, respect the superiority

  • Im curious what is the music soundtrack playing in the background?

  • It's a bunch of songs I edited together..something from X-ray dog,steve jablonsky(transformers)..and a track from this film.

  • Im a little curious to know if the same problems exist with bluray and only way to tell is to ether rent this not that Im sure its on UK bluray? Then take it to store and compare the region 2 DVD because if the same dodgy green colour exists Im staying well clear from bluray.

  • 3:42 noticed the blue colour around the white! Well youd never should see that in the cinema version as this is video version. Its common on most films that have white lights with blue coloured backgrounds.

    T2

    Titanic

    The Abyss

    Sphere

    The list goes on and on

  • Interesting....You sure know your film specs....I bet you have a wealth of knowledge....some film producer would be lucky to have you on the crew....Thanks

  • No LOL just like watching and listening like the rest of the folks.

  • @IntermittentSprocket Aha! But why is the blue colour there? How come?

  • Like the editing at 0:53s (spacecraft) as that line isnt in the film at this point but it fits nice with the lip movement. I was Sphere nuts a few months ago must have watched it 2 times each night of the week.

    The six-track isolated discrete Dolby stereo mix sounds really cool on this film, but dont they all

  • Thanks...Sharp eye...and good knowledge of the film....Impressive.....I always loved this film,no matter what the critics say....Thanks again

  • I used to be projectionist so I have shape eye and golden ear.

    Im adding this to favourites list I like the music its tense.

  • what editing software did you use?

  • I use "Sony Vegas 9" for my video editing and "Sony Sound forge Audio Studio 9" for my audio editing....They are simply Awesome programs and I highly recommend them both.

  • yeah, well i use Adobe Premiere, but still, I can't import the intire movie... how do i import it? i mean; i know how to import, but it wont when its so long. i think.

  • DVDFAB...to rip it from the disc then you can import the VOB filesinto the program or you can convert them. I use Magic video converter but any will work...It still only makes individual files but it makes it easier to work with...mpeg streamclip will render the entire file..this is a free program.

  • all of your trailers are great. I haven't watched the movie, but i just read the book. It was really good.

  • Thanks very much basil...I love the acting ability of Dustin Hoffman....one of the reasons I watched this film...and then there's the genius of Michael Crichton. A winner all the way around..thanks for your kind comment.

  • This is a great movie and you did great on the editing. Thanks for the upload.

  • Thanks very much Kcoola, Glad you enjoyed this....one of my better trailers. but always room for improvement.

  • I saw this movie last night. It made me happy :D(despite the commercials)

  • omg the queen!!

  • Thnaks, great vid. I love this movie, especially the actors/characters. It has a real scifi feel to it

  • Thanks Idmw6...I'm proud of this one..I like to think this is one of my better trailers,...I'm glad you liked it..... Dustin Hoffman Is one of my favorites. Thanks for your kind comment

  • Nice job. I'm a big fan of Michael Crichton. I have Sphere, but I haven't read yet. I'll make sure to watch the movie once I read it.

  • Thanks,Glad you liked it

  • That was brilliantly done! It takes real talent to edit that fluidly.

  • Thank you Maxwesty...I"m glad you enjoyed this. I love making my own trailers for films,I'm just glad there are people like you to share them with..Thanks for your kind comment

  • i read this story in a book

    and its not so different its almost perfect the same they really got the story what is bieng pictured...

    Writer of the story is Micheal chricton

  • 3:33 I almost died laughing

  • WOW! Really?....Interesting......Wh­y this part?

  • my dad recommended the book for me and it was a great book.. he said i should watch the movie later because it was dissapointing

  • It's all in what you like i guess...I never listen to critics,or anyone else's opinion on a film...I always like to make my own judgement on things....I've seen films that got horrible reviews,that I found to be brilliant...Thanks for your comment.

  • Great Job with all your video`s Dark Star. Absolute brilliant editing. I`ve subscribed. Science fiction and the actual thing is so intoxicating. Never get enough.

  • Thank you Duchdrummer...I'm happy you enjoyed this...and the ending...you right...both ARE intoxocating

  • I definitely think it's a great trailer... It does give away A LOT of information about the plot. I always find that less is more, and really thought it stuck to that until she found the dead human on the ship. It all really depends on what type of trailer you are trying to make... if you are making one that summarizes a lot this is really great. But if you just want to tease at what happens, perhaps limit the amount of info you give the viewer...

    Great job though :)

  • yup! I agree..This was more for a theme challenge I was doing...It was a Thriller challenge..I just decided to make it like a trailer..but the human in the spacecraft was only a small part of the film and wasn't the main focus of what the film was about...I think I kept that part fairly secret....but I do agree with you...I probably did give away too much info for a trailer....thanks for the comment and the complement.

  • I don't know why this movie didn't do better... this movie and the Abyess are the only underwater movies I like

  • wrong time to release it perhaps...I don't recall when it came out.sometimes they show them with 2 other huge releases and.....well you know what happens

  • omg at 2:49. that must hurt like hell

  • I love this movie. Watched it for the first time yesterday. I think I bought the movie like 3 years ago in a five dollar bin at walmart and it just sat shelved. I wish I would have watched it earlier because it is one of the best movies I've seen in awhile.

  • Yah! It has an edge to it...thrilling and not a bad story either...I'm glad I could help you have a good movie experience.

  • Yes! One of my favorite Films. Congratulations for the video

  • Thank so much drVinilo..this was one of my better works..I loved this film..thanks for the kind comment.

  • Much better than the original, trailer, I need to see this movie again. I got goose bumps watching and listening to this, probably better than the movie itself.

  • Thanks bro..made this with you in mind...Always look forward to your comments..

  • Hey Darkstar, you put me a triller feelengs :-)

    WOW!! You have made a masterpice. Many compliments.

    My work it's at the beginning too. You have to wait..sorry :-)

  • I'm so happy you think I lived up to the theme with this video..I was worried for a while..I'm so looking forward to YOUR work..waiting will be hard but worth it I'm sure.

  • I agree with my fellow challenge friends: you are THE master of trailers!!! It's always a pleasure watching your vids. They are very professional and absolutely thrilling!!! They not only LOOK great, they also FEEL great! Suspense guaranteed... Every scene is just perfect and accurate! Magnum opus, my friend :-)

  • I am truly honored to have friends like you,and our challenge friends...thank you so much.You are all so kind with your comments..making these vids for you guys and watching everyones creation is a true pleasure.

  • You are SWEET! but trust me bro...my eyes...no ears! have been opened to a whole other world!....

  • I couldn't agree more with supsi and shpsfter! You ROCK at this stuff....the editing was TERRIFIC! I just caught the mvie..again about a month ago! And your editing is a marvel! GREAT JOB bro! Kept me glued to me seat!!!!...jan

  • thank you cinnamonnut..I was worried this wasn't gonna be thrilling enough to fit the challenge..You and our other group members are the reason my vids turn out the way they do..thank you all..your an inspiration.

  • Wow wow WOW! What impresses me the most is how you successfully merge the audio with the story. It would take me forever to find the right lines to push the story forward but you make it seem effortless. I guess this thing just existed in your mind and you quickly put it together and the result looks really professional. That HAS to be talent:)

  • A million thanks supsi.. it's like you said...everyone has their our own tecniques...with everyone having their own specialties,could you imagine what we could accomplish if we all did one together?.."acadamy award" i think

  • Wow! You are the trailer master. You could so do this for a living. It was like watching a mini version of the movie. I've never seen it before but I have to see it know. You definitely succeeded in creating a thrilling video here. You know, you are as good at make trailers as those who do it professionally for movies. I think you've missed your calling, Darkstar.

  • Thanks so much shpshftr..Your gonna give me a big ego..I love doing these challenges..The more practice we get the better we become..I might have missed my calling but I have the greatest fans in the world..YOU GUYS.
