Shitty Movie Details
1844 readers

Share your favorite movie (and other motion picture media) details, potentially with a shitty twist.
To be clear, this is a place for satirical and meta^2^ references. Not really the actual movie details, unless they're truly stupid or have strong meme potential/background. "Oh hai Mark" kind of stuff. Tho sometimes even these can span a good debate.
For maximum funni, include full name of the movie, its release date and all the detail right in the title of the post.
Try to avoid actual shit and other nasty stuff. Mark nsfw when appropriate.
For shitty videogame details, there's !shittygamedetails@lemmy.world
Regular rules of lemmy.world apply. Have fun.

Low key, this actually represented a significant breakthrough in special effects compositing for the time. While the doppelganger bit has been a staple of film SFX for ages, this was the first time ever that they managed to pull off seven of them at once.
Fuck terfs.
Agent smith in the matrix? Granted most where fairly static, but there were loads of him.
That specific effect was a CGI animated crowd (as well as a literal army of stunt doubles), made much easier by the fact that Smith was designed to be nondescript and easily duplicable. Add in some strategic blurs, shadows, and camera angles (not unlike the kind used in old monster movies and slashers to hide the Guy In A Rubber Suit), and the illusion will still pass.
The Seven Potters scene had a LOT of magic going on behind the scenes. Also, required one actor learning how to mimic the mannerisms and movements of six other actors.
Still, fuck terfs. I'm just a huge nerd about special effects.
"I look fantastic in women's clothes"
Lol.
And something completely unrelated:
