- Plastic army men engage in combat.
(7/26/11) Thanks for the comments. I'm not very active, but I'll try to answer a few questions I've seen:
- I got the plane at a Wal-Mart around 1996. I haven't seen another in a long time. I'm not even sure where mine is.
- Some friends from high school and I made this back in 2001. We used 12 frames per second so that video is a compilation of approximately 7,000 still photos.
- Shooting took place over a couple weeks, so it's hard to estimate the exact time. Generally one person manned the camera, one or two moved the pieces, and one shuttled floppy disks with the pictures to the computer. (We only had an old Sony Mavica.)
- We compiled the video with Adobe Premiere. We originally planned to add fire effects and muzzle flashes, but ran out of time. We added sound effects, text, etc. with that program.
- Likewise, we built the blue box with the intention of blue-screening the background, but it didn't work as well as we hoped. (See the takeoff sequence.) We decided it would look cleaner to just leave the blue background. We did use the blue-screen for the helicopter, though.
- We wrote a high level script that generally described each scene and what would take place, including approximate times for each shot. (E.g. "Squad wades to shore - ten seconds.") Before shooting each mini-sequence, we would finalize the plan.
- We shot scenes in the order of increasing likelihood that they would damage our box. We used plastic lining to hold in the water for the beach scene, but shot it last because we were afraid it would ruin our set. (It actually held pretty well.)
Overall, it was a lot of fun. I'd highly encourage anyone else to give something like this a shot. - Krátké a kreslené filmy
17 years later and i still vividly remember watching this vifeo for the first time.
Same bro, good old days

Ye
nice vid plenty of action
this is great for a video made in 2006 which was like a year after the birth of youtube
I remember watching this back in '06 man. Holy hell this is nostalgia.

OMFG! That was an awesome video. I especially liked the dirt changing colors and moving to signal an explosion. Kudos!
Fun video even if it was made 10 years ago. I couldn't make one. Wouldn't know where to begin a project this complicated. One thing I noticed in the opening sequence is it appears you used real grass glued to the helmets of the tan soldiers in the ambush. First time I've seen someone do that in a stop motion movie like this. Nice effect. Hope you can once again be active making videos like this. I'd like to see how you have progressed with your knowledge and skills.
Probably the best special effects of any army men video I've seen so far. Excellent!
man i'm only a minute and a half in and i think its brilliant great work guys!!!!
i still remember this video after so long
This made my day! Excellent job most awesome dudes.
Love it bro really do the best
I love this army video this is my favorite army video! Good work.

Good video man I still remember how much fun I'd have playing with my army men
Very old but still one of the best. I watched this as a kid when it was new, now I'm in high school.
I watched this in elementry school! im in college now damn time flys
Very very nice videos... great director ! :D
I like this it's amazing I wasn't even born yet but this proves old filming is still good
now THAT's an Army Men video.
I know.
Plastic Apocalypse is better.
I agree plastic apocalypse is way better than this
+Freaker that's because plastic apocalypse is made at a different time so it has different and better quality
geil gemacht!
Respekt!
mach noch mehr
that was great, good work
your like one of my inspirations! :)
Nice video, I look forward to more videos
lots of detail and good explosions i like it :)
All those poor men, those poor plastic men. rest in peace. Good job with the stop animation.
This was amazing
I really like how brutal, and intense the warfare is in this film sometimes. Very good :3
nice job! be sure to make more like that
=)
Yes!! this video is pure genius.
I Love It :D
OH DAMN THE NOSTALGIA!!!
Awesome job two thumbs up.
As of today this video has been on youtube for 4 years. Happy anniversary!!!!!!!
Nice work Fella!
Whoever made this...Nice work! This is going in my favorites file.
Seanodeco is right you should make some more army men videos. This one was great! :D
The begginning was insperational! full of drama, like where he ses: do u read? and the guys r dead. that was awsome, the entire vid was great too! this is the best army man vid ever!!! u have the 2nd most viewed army man vid
Still one of the greatest army men videos on the internet!
i wish i could be as cool as u, this vis was stinking amazing!
I got here from cracked. This video is awesome - I had all these army men when I was a kid. I miss them so much. :)
Remarkably well made actually.
Someone has ALOT of time on their hands. Pure awesomness.
Pretty good love the intro :)
The best army men film I have ever seen. Have you ever thought of working in the industry of film making?
10/10
great sound track and animation
I love it!!!
That was epic nice job
Well Done!!!
I remember this along time ago I was so young, I loved this.
this was so much better than the other army men ids =)
it was awesome, it would be cool to do something like that. good work.
Awesome job, that must have taken a long time and lots of effort! One thing though would be that that blue background you have behind a lot of shots is perfect for keying some nice realistic backgrounds in so adding those would make this movie all the more realistic and enjoyable! :)
awesome job
This was made before I was born
very nice! must have taken quite some time to make ... well done!
"You must retaliate with as much unnecessary violence as possible!"
Classic line :-D
This was 7 Years ago, this video was great back then but now not so great but it is a great video.
Absolutely Epic.
Great job. i also like how u didn't disgrace the men that are fighting or have fought in the Military. Nice work.
Awesome!!! I kinda miss my old army men airplane
Entertaining. Thanks for sharing.
Awsome video
WHATS WITH THE INTRO? 0.00 to 0.13
Good Job!
This is the best Amy Men video!

Badass! I still love to play with Army Men as well as the computer games! XD

Nice movie, I actually watched all of it!
Owesome!
this is the best thing ever
that is the best army men video ive ever seen. great job!!!
WOW The intro is awesome
lots of creativity that probably took a while good job though oh and flippovision nice name lol
Holy shit! The D-Day scene kicked ass!!! Omg that was *the shit
Is he ever coming back? If he is then YAY! I'm excited!
cool vid man
when i was 6 i imagined this kind of stuff and i never thought i would see it on youtube
Awesome! Either this flick has the best stop motion i've seen in a while, or you can really hide those strings! I'm inspired to make my own now!
Thats Aweosme!!!!
awesome!!!
1 word................AWSOME!!!
this is awsome...
how could u not know that..? good video!
I have to be honest, I kinda miss old school youtube. They don't make them like they used to.
Seriously I honestly agree with you, I am in utter disbelief at how youtube now resembles TV if anything, so hard to find passionate projects like this where it was just a bunch of kids having fun in their living rooms
I guess toy story wasn't making it up. Well done for capturing this on film!
awesome job man i always wanted to do something like that but never really was able to. 5 stars better than any movie i will ever make. make another would you.
hope every kid in the world gets the chance to play with some army men, dont matter if on playstation or real. they were the best! think i have still some of them
era un niño la primera vez que vi este video :;) soñaba con hacer mis propios videos asi, era una locura ver esta edicion en esa epoca
simply amazing 5 stars.
i watched this video 12 years ago,i cant believe how i growed up so fast
