this looks shit now but back in the day this was the bees knees
Wow the deleted scenes is kinda creepy tho lol😂
This looks insane
3:32 look at that silly skullcrawler in the background ^-^ what a little goober
3:12 is that a spider? LoL what is that?
This is some pretty strong violence for the time.
Great job, dude! That’s such a smooth animation!
Great job man!!
There's also a great moment on the DVD in which Peter Jackson's company recreate one of the movie's lost sequences; the spider pit scene. Using the same crude techniques, these modern filmmakers found it to be a huge challenge and that really says something - James Rolfe 2007
How did they survive from the impact of the fall😅
They fall into thick mud
That Styracosaurus was piiiiiiiiiisssed.
"There are a few photos in the OBie scrapbook of a single triceratops in the jungle; nothing as complex as the CREATION chase."
Steiner also said that all those scenes were present at some earlier point when he viewed it. "OBie did love his triceratops families, didn't he? I asked Marcel about the triceratops footage that was shot, but he didn't recollect anything (except building models)."
Well there seem to be a couple of reputable sources that talk about the scenes. : Edgar Wallace's diary entry about observing shots that equate only to the spider pit sequence. Bert Willis description of filming snakes wrapping around a stuntman to replicate tentacles. Also a "slop test" from a camera set up and a few BTS images. "Max Steiner said that the scenes were gone (Pit, Kong ascending and descending Skull mountain, etc) when he got the print to score. I suppose it's possible that the test audience saw it with a temp (stock) score thrown over it?"
Max Steiner told interviewers that he never scored the scenes because Cooper had edited the scenes out, so how would anyone have seen the pit? Of course, that didn't stop Ray Bradbury from insisting to me - at a dinner party at Ray's Pacific Pallisades home - that he had seen it. Ray seemed very skeptical but respectful of his friend's assertion. Don Glut might remember this. As for Max Steiner not scoring the pit sequence, there is no score for the Allosaurus encounter either, which only increases the tension at that point in the film. It very well may be that the pit sequence was filmed without a score as well. Murray Spivack's notebook, dated July 19, 1932, lists the following sound effects, "men landing in mud", "log and men landing in mud", and "insects-lizards-spiders".
"In late January of 1933, Cooper told David O. Selznick that KING KONG was ready to be previewed in its finished form. Selznick set up a preview in San Bernardino. The film played well until it got to the scene when Kong shakes the crew members off the log into the gorge. At the bottom of the gorge the men are attacked and eaten by huge insect-like creatures, and as loud as the dying men were screaming, the audience was screaming even louder. Some audience members fled the theater outright. Many who remained kept talking about what they had just witnessed, which had gone beyond anything else they'd seen in the film thus far, or in any other film. The graphic nature of the scene distracted the audience so much that they didn't pay all that much attention to the picture for the next several minutes as many sat in the theater talking about what they'd just seen. Feeling that the spider-crab sequence stopped the film cold, Cooper cut it out the following day at the studio. O'Brien was crushed, believing that it was the finest work he'd ever done, and even Cooper agreed that it was magnificent, but it was just too good. O'Brien had outdone himself and created a scene that was greater than Kong himself." (excerpt from "Hot Blooded Dinosaur Movies", by James Van Hise, 1993.)
"My understanding was that the footage was cut from the film before Max Steiner scored it; no audiences (including Ray Bradbury) ever saw the scenes. On the other hand, RKO execs in New York who saw the original test reel wrote about seeing the spider pit. Darlyne O'Brien told me several times that OBie regarded the sequence as his finest work." This is the only surviving slop test print documenting an actual cut; the other surviving images - all from the OBie scrapbook - are behind-the-scenes photos, not frame prints. Possibly taken by the crew's new 35mm Leica still cameras.
There is documentary evidence that Murray Spivack and his crew created sound fx for the triceratops (that might of blocked off the log) Bert Willis describes shooting footage of snakes wrapping around stuntmen to simulate the tentacles of these creatures. Edgar Wallace describes watching the shooting of two stuntmen standing on a rock fighting off creatures that would later be added by cinema technology. I think all of the log fall movie imagery we now have is from a much later shooting version.
Cooper cut the scene before it was scored, and the sound mix was not finalized until the score was recorded. Spivack discusses in interviews at the time balancing the total sound effects with the score.
According to studio correspondence, Stacy Woodard was hired in mid-January 1932 to shoot "some microscopic animal shots" and "some shots of a fish sequence" for "possible use in the proposed picture Kong." It is not known if any of Woodard's footage was used in the final film, though it seems likely that this footage was designed for the deleted spider crab scene.
Shut your yapping
Famous fantasy author Ray Bradbury insisted until the day he died that he vividly remembered seeing the spider sequence at an early screening of King Kong in the 1930s. However, many experts dispute this, because Bradbury didn't move to LA until he was 14, and the film didn't have test screenings outside California. Even Bradbury's close friend Forry Ackerman has said many times he doesn't think the lost sequence was ever screened for a paying audience. Famous Monsters published the spider photo in ~1962, it was a revelation. Forrest J Ackerman said the scene was only in preview prints and was pulled because it "stopped the show".
In the final version a Two-Legged Lizard replaced the spider climbing up the vine which was filmed for the previous version. The original sequence was meant to be in the 14-reel cut, but was removed when the reel was cut down to the 11 reel version. As claimed in the THE SPAWN OF SKULL ISLAND, co-written by Orville Goldner.
Most of the scene was cut from the film changing to the sailors falling to their instant deaths. It was achieved with dummies falling photographed with a camera running 8x normal speed to create a bulk effect in the slow motion of the impact. Weights were placed in different parts of the dummies to make them bounce in a desired way when impacted. Murray Spivack did the voices of the falling men, like the shipwreck sequence of The Most Dangerous Game.
The spider pit is a gorge that the crew of the S.S. Venture fell into by the actions of Kong. The same set and miniature appear briefly from an entrance shot and side shot at the top of the cliff showing the log within The Most Dangerous Game (1932).
Spider pit Type: Natural, Gorge Pit Inhabitants: Great Spider, Trapdoor Spider, Pit Lizard, Two-Legged Lizard, Crab Creature, Octopus-Insect, Snake
This was brutal holy cow.
I love how that giant lizard roars like an elephant
I love how he added the Triceratops to give them a reason to run the other way, in the original movie it was like "oh no, the Brachiosaurus is seventeen miles behind us! What will we ever do?"
Thats a styracosaurus
I highly refuse to believe that this sequence was never filmed, of course it might’ve been destroyed and that’s why it hasn’t turned up but maybe it’s somewhere out there that’s sitting inside a rusted film can
Only pictures but the film is hella deteriorated
Yeah, the tight shots and close ups give it away. The effects are spot on, but you can tell the transition due to the modern camera work and editing. I know everyone is praising this, and I too find it impressive, but let's stop pretending that this is seamless.
This scene plays out nearly the same as in the novelization of the film that was released around the same time (1932-33), I don't see why PJ couldn't have just gone to that for reference.
Spider pit Spider pit Looks like you fell to deep shit Try to run, you can’t hide You got meat and we must eat Look out You’re in the spider pit
このシーンを加えたブルーレイ&DVDの発売はありますか?
what did you use for the wall with the door?
Very good❤
I recently listened to a podcast for this, my first and and for me, the greatest fantasy creature/adventure movie ever. When O'Brien screened the full movie for test audiences many of them lost their minds and freaked out over the spider pit scene, so he was forced to cut it. And it wasn't saved anywhere... so thank you Peter Jackson for going to the pains of the recreation for us all.
There was never a Spider Pit scene in the '33 King Kong that was scrapped.
I think the stop motion here is a bit smoother than the actual movie
Although this scene never actually existed, it is pretty cool to see what it could have looked like if it was indeed made for the film.
Oscar 🥇 goes to primordial Adventure
3:33 I love the detail in the background creature that later we seem trying to bite Jack
Reflex or non reflex?
Reflex.
@@animateangus how much did it cost
Skullcrawler
nice
The spider actually give me a little scare 😂
There are some parts of Gensokyo not even Reimu dare go near…
The shot of Kong reaching over the log with the actor in the same shot is insanely well done, it’s so seamless.
The characters are clearly falling to their deaths. It's kind of funny to see them waking up in the new footage after slamming into the ground so hard that they bounced!
That's because we weren't originally supposed to see their bodies hitting the ground. The spider pit scenes were originally interspersed with Kong moving the log, so each man would fall in one at a time and then we would see them attacked by the bugs, then we cut back to Kong who knocks another man off the log, and so on. When the spider footage was deemed too scary by a test audience, the scene was re-edited so that the men died from the fall instead. This "deleted scene" simply compiled all of the planned spider pit shots together, and not necessarily in the proper order.
Too bad the resolution is so bad
I have it on my to do list to make one of these... with the authentic vintage Ray Harryhausen look :)
