Hey, Anthony! Such an excellent and well-researched ranking! I actually guessed your #1, and I knew you were definitely going to include Medusa.
I have some nostalgic fondness and appreciation for the mythology stop-motion animation used in #10, #7, and #3.
There was also some solid stop-motion used for some rather frightening puppets in Tales From The Hood as well. Appreciate the breakdown, my friend! 👏👏👏
Hey D, yeah this was a case where I know technically many other stop-motion creatures are more advanced and move smoother, but I still just went with what feels like my personal fav of them all. On the topic of Tales From The Hood, I recall the puppet I think swinging from a chandelier. He was great too. I really have to give that a rewatch. Thank you for the watch and the comment man. Be well! : )
That 2 headed dragon and ED-209 design are absolutely absolutely incredible. Phill Tippett is undefeated! Also, I will never forget that Medusa design. I remember watching Clash of The Titans for the first time during that tense scene. I was blown away. Great stuff. Fantastic countdown, good sir!
😱 Medusa creeped me out big time when I was younger. I agree, Phill Tippett is a true legend! Thanks for checking in SMR. Appreciate it bro!
@@FeverDreamlandTheater Nothing has topped what she looked like I'm this film. You're very welcome, good sir. You take care.
The Eborsisk (that the name of the two headed dragon) from Willow was truly a scary but cool monster. I even use to have the toy of it as a kid. The 1981 version of Clash of the Titans will always be better than the 2010 version, no matter what.
Great list! Stop motion and practical effects are unique and takes time that's why I love hearing the history about those behind the scene movies.
😁 You know me, practical FX all the way. Have a good one Selina!
I had just showed my son Willow two days ago. He loved the two headed dragon scene. So awesome.
Aw that's great, I showed it to my oldest son a few years back. He dug it, especially all the action. Looking forward to the new series too.
Great video! Glad that you included The Gate. I've always loved the stop motion in that.
The Gate is one of the lesser known ones on this list. It's on Tubi at the moment, so maybe people will give it a go. Thanks for watching Govt. Cheese! Always appreciated & have a nice weekend. : )
That's good sharing video.My bro,,thsnk for sharing and have a good day
This was most, most excellent. You know I love the stop motion. And this was a fantastic look at the art. You really hit several of my all time favorites. The Ymir. The Minions. ED-209. And of course, possibly my favorite as a lad the Cyclops.
Not sure if we've talked about Mighty Joe Young before, but that was a childhood favorite as well. I probably watched it more than King Kong.
Hey Rob! It's possible we talked about the classic Mighty Joe Young before. A while back I listed it as a hidden gem, ha ha, I am always recommending that movie whenever possible or giving it a shout. Yeah this one was super fun and a little break from the Zone for a bit. Thanks as always for coming by and here's to a wacky week ahead.
Some great shouts here Ant bro, especially the Gate. My favorite stop motion of all time is definitely clash of the titans, awesome effects for its time, especially Medussa. 🤜🤛
Ricky! Wassup man, appreciate you checking in! Movies like clash of the titans and creatures like Medussa or that demon from Gate just really stuck with me. Creepy AF. 🤣Be well bro & have a good weekend. 🤜🤛
The Gate! Omg! Haven't seen that in 30 years.
I recently saw the skeleton scene in 4k, super clean and interpolated. A rare time I would say it helped an already classic fight.
The skeleton scene in 4k 😱That is awesome. 💀💀💀💀💀💀💀 So many great little details.
What a fantastic video Anthony. I ADORE Ray Harryhausens work. I had no idea he worked as a protégé on King Kong!!!
That Skeleton army is one of my favs. You showed most of mine.
Kratos, Medusa, Cyclops, Centaur and the skeletons.
King Kong is incredible too. I don’t think I e seen the original Mighty Joe Young.
Hey Lisa! Yeah there are sooo many of these, it was hard to nail down just 10. Thanks for watching & commenting, I appreciate it!
This was exceptional! :) There's certainly some classic cinema here for sure - can`t beat the sense of authenticity that comes from stop motion - and the time, effort and dedication required to pull it off is outstanding! :) Definitely some awesome creature features! :)
Heeey wassup SciFirst, yeah as I was going through these each time, it was just amazing to see how much time everyone put into these creatures. Thanks for the watch, always appreciated man. Hope you have been well!
Heyy Anthony nice to see you here watching my friend
Wassup Hilda, happy Friday! Hope you've been well & thank you as always for swinging by. 😁
Damn great list my friend. Loved them all.
Thank you as always watchwaddle! I knew you of all people would get a kick out of this one.
Another excellent video my friend! The BF really loved this one! You do such good work with all these!
Pax! Thanks so much, glad you both enjoyed! This one was a long haul to get together, lol but fun & a little different for me. Have a great weekend!
Man, this video was a lot of fun. I was expecting to see Mad God pop up, I still need to watch that one as well as a bunch on this list. I remember being so fascinated by the effects in Jason and the Argonauts and those skeletons are creepy as hell, even today. And yes, Hail to the king!
Hey rainbow! Glad you enjoyed it, this was a lot of fun and a little different. My quick break from the fifth dimension. Yeah those skeletons, were the stuff of nightmares. Especially when they screamed while running at the heroes. A ghostly battlecry. LOL
Great list. It’s nice to see some appreciation for stop motion
Hey wassup Indiana! No doubt, I think Mad-God got me thinking about how much great stop motion there's been over the years. Good hearing from you, hope you've been well & thanks for the watch!
Stop Motion animation was truly magical. In fact, It's as magical as 2D animation and puppet movies. (Like the Dark Crystal and Labyrinth.) If only we had more Stop Motion animation today.
I agree totally, I wish we had more today too. This was one of the more fun topics, it was cool rewatching these movies which in most cases were good in their own right & the stop-motion creatures and robots were the highlight.
Fantastic video Anthony! I love stop motion, especially the Harryhausen work, the skeleton sword fight is epic. I just watched GdT's Pinocchio last night and loved it! Highly recommend. 👍
Hey Greg! I got a chance to check out Guillermo del Toro's Pinocchio and loved it. If I ever return to this topic, I'd like to touch on characters from films that were totally stop-motion. Be well man!
Anthony, this was an awesome list! There were a few that I had a feeling were going to rank high and I was not disappointed because they are so deserved. What this really made me want to do was go back and rewatch some of those Harryhausen films especially Jason and the Argonauts. And then there were other movies I hadn't even thought of in forever like The Gate! But of course was there ever any doubt that King Kong would not be #1. It remains for me the gold standard, although Mighty Joe Young I agree is a close second.
Hey Cinecrisis! Thanks for checking in man. This was a fun one to run through and I had to give it to Kong, my personal fav...there's a few other key Harryhausen monsters I left off so maybe if I ever revsit this topic, I can include them. Anyway, thank you for the watch man. Have a good one!
Hi Anthony, fantastic choices. I so forgot about the movie Willow and when I saw the creature from The Gate I was like I so remember that movie 😊.
Heeey wassup Ariel, glad you enjoyed it. : ) Yup this one definitely inspired some movie memories.
This was cool Anthony! I love stop motion animation it’s very nostalgic for me. I think part of the inspiration for my art career. It’s so very creative. Of all the incredible ones you’ve shown here I have to choose the Cyclops as my favourite. I was always so fascinated by him. Great top 10 🙌
Karen! Thanks as always for checking in. That's awesome that these creatures served as your artistic inspiration. I'd say the same, all of these weird monsters and aliens just sparked the imagination. I especially got a kick out of the cyclops tongue, little touches like that made stop motion so memorable. But wow, what an amazing character...and there were sooo many from Harryhousen. Anyway, again, thanks for coming by. Always happy to hear from you. Be well. : )
@@FeverDreamlandTheater yah I love all the extra artistic effort in stop motion and practical effects. I think that type of creativity makes for amazing films. In my opinion anyhow. This was fun!
I've always loved the look of stop- motion. Yeah it doesn't always hold up because we're so used to CGI, but they looked damn good back in the day.
Awesome video my friend.
Hey Fox I hear you, I dig CGI too, it can be incredible as well. But yeah, I've always just loved the look of stop motion, so this was a a joy. Be well man and thank you for coming by. : )
The difference between CGI and Stop-Motion is that Stop-Motion feels more authentic, like if it's actually there with the actors. After watch the Don't Hug Me, I'm Scared tv show, I can say that I like stop motion more than CGI, with Fantastic Mr. Fox being one of my favorite films of all time and bring fully Stop-Motion. Great list.
Hey Scofield, thanks for checking in man. Fantastic Mr. Fox is one of my favorites too. If I ever do a list of best full stop-motion features, that will be at the top.
Yay, I’m glad that ED-209 made your list, I love him so much
He's a total badass. Glitchy as heck and can't walk down stairs, lol but I still love him.
Hey, amazing countdown, medusa freaked me out as a kid, traumatizing 😅and remember watching robocop 1 In the theater. Amazing works of art, awesome list bro
Thank you bro! I did not get to see the OG RoboCop in the theater but I did get to see the sequel in the theater. I loved the action of course but as I recall things got gory when it came to Cane 😱🤣 That creeped me out. Anyway, be well man. 🤜🤛
Brilliant episode 🌞
Thanks!
What a great vid..... All iconic memorable scenes and characters.... Definitely an underappreciated art form.... Awesome work my friend.... 👍💀
I know it's random but this brought the Hamburger scene from Better off Dead to mind.....ha ha ha....
Aw man, I had to go look that one up as a reminder! 🤣😅🤣 Classic! Thanks for watching Bones, be well bro & have a great weekend.
Great video my dude! Don't think I could've compiled a better list. Kong is definitely king. Stop motion and practical effects just can't be beat. Always enjoyed the stop motion T-Rex in My Science Project, which was done by Rick Baker. Keep making awesome videos and be well.
Hey FanZcene! Thanks for the watch and kind words. Yeah man, you know me, huge fan of practical FX so this was just all about showing some appreciation for stop motion. Rick Baker is a LEGEND. Have a good weekend bro! 🤜🤛
There is always been something kinda freaky about stop motion. i even find the cute stuff kinda creepy. Medusa in Clash Of The Titans was a big favourite of mine from a young age. The Robocop stuff was the best besides when Dick Jones gets killed that was pretty bad. Amazing video as always. See you real soon! 👍
I'm hyped for this coming Sunday man & of course, thanks so much for checking in, much appreciated. Have a good one. 👍
Hats off on this one Anthony! 👏 Great idea and what a list! Some really fantastic facts. I loved stop motion films as a kid. The Children of the Hydra and Talos would be in my top 10 as well as Medusa. The Centaur VS Griffin and Kali from the Sinbad films would be on there along with Gwangi from The Valley of Gwangi and the giant crab from Mysterious Island (which incorporated an actual crab shell/ exoskeleton.)
Hey Mr. Dan! Thanks for stopping by as always. Much appreciated man. The Centaur, Griffin, Kali, Gwangi were all awesome too. I hope to revisit this topic again and spotlight some of those others you mentioned.
Great video my friend. I loved hearing your thoughts
Katie! Glad you enjoyed, thanks for checking in!
@@FeverDreamlandTheater you're welcome. I hope your doing well
Stop motion monsters = the best 😎😎😎
Stop motion dinosaurs are the best!
hello, new friend here,
full support,
Great list man Happy too see The Gate Cain and The Chess Pieces from Star Wars on there. I haven't seen Sinbad Yet but the Cyclops is one of my favorite monsters so I do wanna check it out someday and I agree Kong is King one of the best stopmotion creatures ever. I also really like Calibos I think that's how you say it from Clash Of The Titans. The Puppets from Puppet Master I think they whir stop motion and The Little Demons from Subspecies which whir kind of like the gate again not 100 percent sure if they whir stop motion but I think they whir. Keep up the good work stay frosty.
Calibos is awesome! That character and many others were on my list too, this was super tough to narrow down. Thanks for the watch & comment Soulless Trench Coat! Be well!
There's something special about stop motion animation. I actually wanted to do stop motion at one point and do videos on them for youtube. It's a very time consuming process too making sure the animation is nice and smooth, but the end result is worth it. Excellent top 10 my friend!
Hey Charles! Did you ever get to film any of your stop motion? This was a fun topic to go down the rabbit hole on. Even prior to 'Lost World', there were all kinds of earlier efforts. Russian photographer / entomologist Wladyslaw Starewicz created stop-motion shorts where he actually animated characters using dried bugs. 😬 Anyway, be well man & thanks for the watch & comment as always! 🤜🤛
Excellent list! Where's Little Otik? I'm very hurt by this Anthony. 😭😁🤣🤣🤣
Hey Nye! You know what's funny, I wanted to add a reference to Little Otik! 🤣🤣🤣However, I'm sick now and my throat/voice is a mess. So when I tried recording any new audio I just sounded drastically different. 😁
Hey bud, my dads visiting so I'm finding it hard to catch up.
I absolutely adore stop motion. I have so much respect for people that do this due to the art design and the patience when it comes to the movements.
It's great to see Willow make the cut :) that monster scared the heck out of me but I was always fast by it.
MMS, always happy to see you man! Yeah his was a fun one. Gave me an excuse to revisit a lot of movies I have not seen in a minute too. And I hear you about catching up, I'm typically behind, but its all good, happy to hear from you whenever you can make it. Be well and have a good week ahead!
@@FeverDreamlandTheater thanks pal! We're driving the coast all the way to L.A for Horror nights :)
Great video! I watched this video when you first dropped it but I guess I didn’t comment. I love that you did this, a lot of cool stop motion stuff I still need to check out.
I appreciate that! I think was the one you guys watched in Florida! Thanks man!
@@FeverDreamlandTheater yes! I couldn’t remember why it didn’t say I watched it haha
I always liked the Scorpions in Clash Of The Titans
Dope lol
Anthony, let me know if you can see the links I've added to my comment. For some reason, they have only been visible some of the time, as like now (I think... 😏).
As usual, you hit one out of the park, my friend. I liked all of your choices, though a few were new to me, such as Cain in _RoboCop 2,_ and now I want to see the movie. Like you , _Mighty Joe Young_ is a big favorite of mine (great from beginning to end!), and Kong definitely gets top billing--it's sad that the Japanese filmmakers of 1954's _Godzilla_ found stop motion too expensive--a man in a giant monster suit just doesn't cut it.
Here are a few more creations that merit consideration:
Cowboys, Indians, and Dinosaurs! *_The Valley of Gwangi_* (1969) More Ray Harryhausen? Of course! czcams.com/video/X0i0RSpQEf8/video.html
Stop motion can be extremely disturbing at times, as in the MTV-featured video "Sober" (1993) by the band Tool: czcams.com/video/nspxAG12Cpc/video.html
But also in 1993 came this holiday classic: czcams.com/video/jv8lGa_ZXao/video.html
*_The Curse of the Were-Rabbit,_* a 2005 comedy-horror film that has very detailed work: czcams.com/video/qW5X1S6VKQ8/video.html
Hey Galantski, The Valley of Gwangi I'm familiar with, it was actually on this list when I was narrowing down my choices. I have to give the rest a watch. Glad you enjoyed my quick break from the 5th dimension to delve into some stop-motion monster action. Be well and have a good weekend ahead.....and yes as far as I can tell, all links seem to be working presently : ) Thanks man!
