- Spoilers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
We get to hear from all the creators of ex machina how it was made and some of the director's insights and thoughts about the movie
I just really love this movie so much that I thought that people would enjoy watching this video about ex machina and how it was made I wasn't planning on monetizing this content and will not be, this is solely for the purpose of enjoyment
Nobody ever comments on how perfectly the music blends in with this movie. A great film in every aspect.
I downloaded the album where I thought it was that good 👍
Yeaaah, I wish I was watching movie when I was smoking weed back in days . Would be especially hypnotizing at the moment when Nathan says :' Fucking unreal .' (not sure totaly is it correct , but it happens when he got stabbed second time and walking away from Ava )
Totally agreed. One big part for me
You just did 😊
@@BushcraftEurope for real tho this whole movie hit different after a puff, especially with the music and set
I think this movie deserved that VFX Oscar
They did all that with a modest 15 million dollar budget and they didn't use motion capture suit, which makes it harder to do all robotic interior
+zombiesnyder13 Yes. And Star Wars has about 2 billion reasons why it will be just fine without a VFX Oscar.
Kyle Campbell, I wish I believed in just deserts based on merit, but.... It's all who you know and how you play the game.
they deserve Oscar regardless on any of those conditions mentioned
It finally won a oscar tho, in vfx
Three characters. Never in the same room together. You are the main character and the movie is you going between the two supporting characters making judgments on them based on what one says about the other. So simple but brilliant. I'm shocked it hasn't been turned into a broadway play. The dialogue is so good and you'd only need a handful of sets.
You're forgetting Kyoko.
it's kind of wild how all the top comments about this movie state there's only 3 characters.
Never in same room together?
Such a good movie I'm actually obsessed. Every character had so many layers and the notion is Ava a sentimental being was such an interesting and thought provoking concept
I swear it is the best film I've seen in a while.
I've seen it in 2015 and love it. Now it's 2022 and I still think this is the best Sci-fi movie of all time (better than Blade Runner).
Watched it for the first time last night and Im obsessed. I wish there were books/graphic novels on this film.
i still dont understand how they made ava partly transparent that well, with that budget
Talent can outshine money
they probably just got a blank slate of every frame and after that, it isnt too difficult to remove objects in the foreground.
Hollywood didn’t even want the movie released.
@@ToxiCistyhow so ?
@@bobjary9382 Fear of Anti-AI sentiment with the knowledge then of future capabilities that were becoming more possible by the minute. And perhaps some early to the wagon investors, afraid their tech start ups would fail, who also simultaneously own or partially own Hollywood studios…
We need more films like this. Very well constructed plot
Kyoko's voice is sos sweet. Wish we got to hear it
Yes, but that ass is all the sweeter.
@@SuperPussyFinger ur gay
@@SuperchargedW12 - I’m gay for you. I’m going to feed you with my noodle.
@@SuperPussyFinger I'm guessing that you're more Soba than Udon...
This movie is simply excellent on every level. One of my faves.
Ex machina is absolutely, the best ski-fi movie ever made. It's implications belong not just to robotics or Turing test, but to philosophical anthropology about consciousness, free will and the theme of dignity of other conscious entities who probably are not biological ones. Where is the borderline between humans and self conscious machines? What makes us humans? Artificial intelligence is targeted to produce self conscious robots and that will be done by emulating human processes; but, even humans are -in a certain way- programmed by DNA, culture, education and self-hermeneutics based on criteria that every human being create according to his/her experiences since maternal womb.
I agree, Ricardo. Number two would be Blade Runner for me.
brian janson Blade Runner is light years ahead of Ex Machina
It was certainly deep, intense, thought provoking, and unique. However, in the time that has passed between the release of Ex Machina and now, it’s director, Alex Gardner, has released another sci-fi movie that is even better than Ex Machina, called “Annihilation.” Have you seen it? If Ex Machina was the best movie ever made, Annihilation cranks everything up to 11, and surely, must be better.
Jon Osterman It’s so silly when people present opinion as fact. What constitutes as “best sci-fi movie” is not fact based. There are many elements to what makes a movie great outside of visual effects and such. Different movies will connect to different people in different ways. I think Ex Machina is the best sci-fi movie ever made. You don’t have to agree with that, but there is no counter to this that proves me wrong. You could go on and on for days about, for example, Blade Runner (or insert your favorite movie here like 2001) and how it’s 10X better but you will not change my opinion because I have seen Blade Runner many times, I enjoy it very much, but despite you own opinions I will still hold the opinion that Ex Machina is better. Put shortly, opinions are not facts so stop acting like they are.
@Steve Synan
Love this film, I often have it playing in the background while I work, I like the dialogue.
The CGI in this movie was outstanding♥️ so tasteful and just the right amount♥️
Best film of the year. Will have a cult following in less than 5 years. I want a movie book!
it's been five years now :D
So true
@@BushcraftEurope 7 years now, this ai is more believable than ever
@@AndrewDaniele87 it will exponentially grow
Sonoya Mizuno is insanely beautiful.
Fuck yeah. I’d like to bury my face in that ass until my head smelled like a zoo.
What a statement!
Alicia is better
James Vega nah
Domnhall has such a weird mix-of-everything accent.
Thanks for uploading this😊
+William Clinton Ogbebor Yup, loved this movie, I "Fell in love with AVA" and wanted her to have feelings for humans :_[
I Eddk
I Eddk
As usual the unbelievable technical and artistic skills of the VFX creators barely gets a mention, without which there's no movie.
I really just wanted to see the extended disco scene...
This movie will be the Blade Runner of the 21st century. And it all about to come true in horrifying fashion.
The best electronic score everrrrr. Period!
I was so late to the party on this movie.... just saw it for the first time a couple of weeks ago, and watched it over and over 3x.... LOVED / LOVE it!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Im just obsessed with that music...what an amazing movie❤️💢
I'm from the Blade Runner's generation....and I think this is one of my favs sci-fi all the times.
Choosing Alicia Vikander to play Ava is perfect!
An enigmatic beauty who looks innocent enough yet cunning and deadly!
Anyone who loved Ex Machina has to watch Black Mirror season 2 episode 1.
yeah fuck yeah. I watch it before this and its funny to see caleb on the other side lol. Black mirror as a whole is fantastic, Ex machina could be seen as just another episode.
just my thoughts :)
I need to rewatch Black Mirror. I loved that episode.
They got me, 15 mins in thought Caleb was an bot. Then 25 mins thought Nathan was a bot. Only thing I got right was Kayoko. Ava naughty bot.
Caleb is a hybrid bot. A cadaver with AI. He was supposed to be Nathan's next upgrade. It's implied throughout the movie. But it turned out the his previous model was superior, much like Windows XP was superior to Vista.
@Burnintreez321 Calub had too many human tells - the first and most obvious was him shitting himself ducking from the chopper.
Why couldn't an AI be programmed to be awkward?
Fallen in love with this movie ❤️❤️
the part at 28 mins regarding Nathan's appearance ... my guy was looking on point every seen and the fits were choice
Excellent presentation! Thank you for this look behind this thinking man film! Like 1984, after you have seen it you find yourself thinking about it more everyday! It never lets go of your mind!
the makeup wardrobe set design acting were all incredible
09:26 "someone to fall in love with" ... that worked for me :blush: .... completely fell in love with her. And when the end came, I cheered for her. The end is fantastic. This whole movie is truly a masterpiece.
This making-of is quite detailed (Y) Better than most that I've watched
I think it's wild that you can tell Oscar Isaac and Domnhall Gleeson are at least 30% still in character during their interview portions
I don't know why it took me so long to figure out how they got her face to overlap the robotic head.
The landscape is 😍😍😍
This really was a special movie. The characters were perfect.
I love this movie. I think it could be perfectly second after matrix. But perhaps even the first place because of absolute perfection in an idea and it’s execution with simplicity.
What a truly wonderful film it is
That music score reminds of Portal, maybe it was intentional. Superb movie.
You're right, it does!
I think those final comments from the the author, wearing his director's hat, reveal why this film is so good.
Nice music patterns on the scenes. It was a perfect video for me.
i starred in ex machina
You did really well + you're insanely beautiful.
you did really well+ you're insanely beautiful.
Great job! I'd do the same as your character in her position, hehe.
Is that really you? Good job!!
One of my all time favourite films which didn’t get the audience when it came out just like blade runner
I simply just love this movie and sound track
You've done an absolutely fantastic job. Just incredible.
thanks for uploading this. was a great watch.
I love how they did this and Alicia is perfect ..I hope.they can do part 2..
Really liked this. Thanks for sharing!
This is really a fantastic feature. I hope Garland gets more chances to helm his own projects in the future.
"Hello... This Poe Demeron, I have a urgent communicate for General Hux!" :D
such talented people on a budget. imagine they had more budget to make it a better film.
First these two test an AI then they wage a Star War.
It was Caleb's why of getting back at Nathan
My god Kyko
She is truly magnificent.
Dime a dozen in Japan.
So there are thousands of English ballerina actresses in Japan? Good to know.
17:32 I wonder if they actually wrote meaningful things in those memos
This will be considered a classic in the future
This film/story,..is crying out for a sequel, after Ava,.or maybe the search for Ava. When i first heard The actress that plays Kyoko, speak in her perfect British RP accent 👌, i couldn't help think that would have made her character even more AI,
But she never said a word. Missed opportunity, either way,. Brilliant film and effects.even more poignant now. A classic 🎥🎞📽🎬❤
Thank you so much for this upload!
Something interesting in this movie that, it seems, everyone has missed, is that Nathan knew that his AI was self aware, but could she convince a human being to help her escape. So the power downs were part of Nathans plan. Nathan's problem was that he just drank too much. Hum....OR, he was just out smarted by his creation. God must be thinking the same thing right now !
I think he underestimated Caleb.
PV1230 Nathan under estimated himself. Think about it.
Chad Hurley Nathan ultimately created something that was smarter than him and was too confident in his intelligence thinking he could control Ava; She could read facial expressions to tell how someone was feeling or if they were lying.
In the end, he dies how he did because he's holding a weapon, deeming himself hostile and she knew he was lying when he said she'd be allowed out again.
Yes, I think that you are right. Reading facial expressions is something we all do all the time. I watched the move, " The invasion" on netflix, last night. The only way you could tell if someone was infected was by their human "expressions." Another movie that takes this to the extreme is "The lobster." (Amazon Prime) Both movies give me an uncomfortable feeling. But makes me realize just how special we emotional humans really are and how "the greys" if they trully are abducting us, look at us.
While it's possible Nathan knew about the power outage and let Ava continue to do this to trick her into thinking she had an edge, he seemed genuinely surprised when Caleb and her were conspiring against him, to the point that he had placed a secret battery powered camera in her room. He could have done this all along if he was worried about losing footage of the two of them. He also would have probably engineered some kind of failsafe to prevent an escape even with the power being out. I think thats one area where we're supposed to give Ava credit for outsmarting him.
One of the best movies ever. So philosophical and profound.
Ou yeah, this is a very good scene. It means. Empty your mind, be water my friend. You are not your thoughts. Satori. We make a vessel from a lump of clay;
It is the empty space within the vessel that makes it useful.@@empty_neural_network
To be honest i aslo fell inlove with this robot while watching
What an incredible film
Listening to Alex Garland speak with Mark Kermode with your eyes shut would be trippy.
Hell really is other ppl. Garland likes sci fi which is why Oscar looks so much like SF author Charles Stross. Which is why Ava's mesh skin resembles the female robot on the cover of Stross' Saturn's Children. The glass reflections say more than anyone will admit. Reflective of relationships in general. Caleb reflects a *humanbean*. He is a Truman Burbank character, the only one not in on the joke. Nathan + Ava + Kyoko together reflect the entities populating the world exactly sans AI bots.
Nathan reminds me of a guy named Franklin Jones aka Bubba Free John, Adi Da etc western style guru who lived on the island "paradise" of Fiji. What would have happened if I had ever gone there for 10 days? Hah! I would have gotten no sleep which means made open to the usual suggestion. (I was never very suggestible) I would have been constantly worked (karma yoga) cleaning up along with anybody else fool enough to visit the "genius God man." Possibly I would have been the only one not in on the joke and the worst meditator. Possibly a animatronic "love bomb" or two (Ava, Kyoko). Unlike Caleb I would have gotten out alive but regretting it. I did two 10 day retreats in the states instead. Much cheaper.
When you're really smart, most people you meet are idiots. Basic logic―so accept it! Why things exist at all is *still* fucking fascinating...
@@Kenjuudo Just because Your Smart doesn't Mean Everyone else is Dumb
Lol, this picture: i.redd.it/5fyo1t0mqfh31.jpg I think, you are totally right
Great film. Noticed the looking glass is not just the room but Caleb through TV and Nathan through monitors...
This is a zoo with 3 specimens. 1 is free 1 is obviously caged and 1- Caleb is caged on many levels. Under his bosses scrutiny, in the middle of no where, restricted by security measures and finally his hormones and sympathy. I was caged by the vision of a beautiful young thang restrained.
Great movie. The only thing I didn't get was why the helicopter just took her at the end with no explanation.. They were expecting Caleb not some unknown "woman".
Maybe she blew the pilot and that was enough for him to take her & fly off.
Thè🤖changed the virtual🚁 reservation
I need to find out who was the DP on this film. Yes Great casting and performances, but the lighting and filming was amazing.
Love her, absolutely Beautiful! !
Fantastic Movie. First time I see it - hated Nathan 95% of the time. Second time i see it Nathan 100% top bloke - never lied at any point and understood the dangers. Easy for Caleb to be sucked in by AVA.
I LOVE THIS FILM SOO MUCH!!!!WE NEED A SECOND FILM NOWWWWWW!
dsgjdksljsjdls Domhnall is criminally pretty
Excellent movie .
Great Movie greetings of success and good luck always .
For me, Ex Machina is a modern classic - up there with Blade Runner and 2001: A Space Odyssey.
Fantastic movie. While I watched, Ian Malcolm's quote from Jurassic Park (book) came to mind. “Scientists are actually preoccupied with accomplishment. So they are focused on whether they can do something. They never stop to ask if they should do something.”
Yeah same!
Really a great film.
Salisbury and Geoff Barrow are geniuses
4:00 dude saw it all coming
I normally enjoy blueberry muffins AND St. Patrick's Day as well
OMG! i love this video 👏👏
Domhnall Gleeson is so cute
I am trying to find this movie of BD, but it's actually not that easy to get in stores.. I just have to order it online.. :(
waiting for sequel Ava in the real world at the Apple store looking for pwr cord...
Alex Garland is a very handsome man
This was great
Awesome film
Amazing film,as original as bladerunner.
Lol did anyone see her doing the robot 38:49
Why wasn't Asimov's first law programmed in?
AI with free will is incompatible with Asimov's laws of robotics. Enforcing the first law on EVA through programming would have rendered Nathan's work impossible.

Who else fell in love with Ava too ? Lol
wow. I thought she was wearing a green suit the whole time.
I think this film is as good as blade runner.
Better IMO. Blade Runner had a detective that lost all his fights but luckily won anyway.
What song is that
Why are all the robots female? And would you change the gender of the characters completely if the robot were male, and why?
So weird to hear Sonoya Mizuno speaking with an English accent. I'm English, but I've not seen anything with her speaking with an English accent.
DONT YOU PEOPLE KNOW THAT ALL ROBOTS ARE PSICOPHATS?!?!!
Nah, you got it wrong. It's: All psychopaths are robots.
Insane how the Swede has the smallest accent out of all of them.
but you do not understand LOVE
