Something about Phil's creature design for Star Wars. They looked like they had a soul. I mean they could be obviously alien and intimidating, but you could almost feel a consciousness behind them. Must of been the eyes or something.
I can agree with that actually I would go even further to mention that his creations where believed because of their looks thay had in a sense of a used "living aged" quality about them.
Good point. They look like they had a growth period in their life, maybe had scars, wrinkles, sun damage, etc. so that added to the unconscious story we tell ourselves; saying, "This exists." And I think that is often lost in CGI. If I watch, say, a modern superhero movie I fee like I'm watching a cartoon with some live actors. I watch _Empire Strikes Back_ for example and I feel like "this IS somewhere in the universe." @@apphappy3796
@@stevenuseda6317 Well you know what I would like see is a little "Chicken Walker" that was ever sooo briefly shown in "AT-AT" Walker Rebellion battle on "Hoth" now that would so cool to see again.
Great interview!
thank you!

Well said. They all have a real sense of character and history to them

To this day it's bugged me why they've never fixed the flipped shot of Boba Fett in Jabba's palace even in the special editions
same here
Great interview as always
thanks, Jay! Much appreciated!
The Rancor coud have been a rejected design for Martinfly from The Fly 2.
Interesting comparison!
