Hello listeners, Join us this week as we continue into the oscars, with a nominated movie from 1991 starring the one the only Kurt Russell, Backdraft. This was a movie hidden in the radar for some…
But this did have a quite...
Well, I should just go ahead and get this out of the way because we still are, like I said...
I forget to keep saying it, but we are still in Oscar seasons.
Our season.
We're not going to do any more seasons of this after.
It didn't win any, but it was nominated for three different Oscars.
And that was for Best Effects and Sound Effects Editing, Best Effects for Visual Effects, and Best Sound.
All of them, I feel like, for the most part, are well-deserved.
The visual effects, you know, they were okay.
You know, for this to be 91...
I mean, I know, like, there's a couple of bits I was watching this, Evan, and I was kind of like, that fire doesn't look like CGI.
And that kind of looks like the actors are standing, like, right next to that fire.
But, yeah, there was a lot of it where I was like, fuck, that looks real.
It looks so real.
Yeah, they did really, really good stuff in it.
Yeah.
You know, and like when the fires were like shooting back into the house, I was like, oh, that's really neat.
Like how I guess they're probably, you know, editing the video to where they're maybe like rewinding it to the sims.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
Which is it's always a cool little thing if you can do it and do it well.
They had it.
Pretty good editing, you know, to put things together like this.
