There's a famous story between Spielberg and John Williams doing Schindler's List. When Spielberg first showed John the rough cut of the movie so he could start composing for it, John had to stop and go out for a walk to process what he'd just seen. He came back and told Spielberg he couldn't do it. That movie needed a better composer than him to do the job right. Spielberg's response was "I know, but they're all dead."

(I feel weird typing this lol) Do the films have flaws, of course, but to brush them off because white people bad is just weird. Lincoln’s political MASTERY in placating and guiding all the different groups (white supremacy groups, abolitionists, radical republicans) to having the first version of black civil rights get ratified was masterfully put on display in the movie.

On the shower scene in Schindler’s List: I feel Spielberg very intentionally included this scene not merely as a breath of fresh air for the audience, but to further communicate the horror of the Holocaust. Earlier in the film a conversation is held between many of the women discussing rumours of shower rooms where a lethal gas is released to effect a mass killing. With this already on mind, these ladies find themselves stepping off a train not to freedom-as they had been told and supposed-but to Auschwitz. Their sheepish confusion is turned to abject horror when they find themselves all gathered together in a group shower room-similar to the rooms that they’ve heard rumours of, and they miserably await their certain death. Only, it’s not a gas chamber, but a genuine shower. They leave relieved, but by no means triumphant as they are still stuck in a dehumanizing interment camp with shaved heads. I think this scene allowed Spielberg to portray the horror of the gas chambers, a method of killing synonymous with Auschwitz and the Holocaust, without having to actually show the gassing. I think a respectful display that still communicates the psychological terror of the experience.

It's not really Spielberg's fault that Tintin's journalism wasn't explored. It never really comes up in the comics and that movie is an adaptation of two stories: The Secret of the Unicorn and The Crab with a Golden Claw.

Fun fact, as a film student taking a class on screenwriting, my class watched Duel together and discussed what it’s conflict was. But one thing we talked deeper about was it’s themes of masculinity. The main guy’s last name is Mann, and the movie makes a point to tell you that he’s not really the macho figure that most other main male characters were in action movies. If you ever rewatch the film and look for ways to prove that, you will find them sprinkled in there. For example, the phone call at the beginning with his wife tells us that he’s passive because he didn’t stop another man from coming onto her, and even the size of the truck versus the size of his car. I really enjoyed the movie for the class, but I do agree that it felt drawn out. There’s only so much you can do with a car chase being the whole premise of the movie

You talking about "Always" brought up some memories I think I had tried to sort out, but gave up on, back in my childhood years. I had completely forgotten about this movie, and the fact that I find out it's a Spielberg movie here is nothing short of jaw-dropping. I thank-curse you for finally sorting out my memories of its plot, and for reminding me of that movie and to never watch it under any sober circumstances.

I saw Jaws for the very first time this past summer, and I had the opportunity to see it in theaters. I didn’t really want to see it, but I decided to anyway cause it’s such a vital part of cinematic history. It holds up INCREDIBLY well. And is legitimately engaging! I don’t typically like pseudo-disaster/creature flicks but I really really liked it. And I actually was on edge/startled at different points.

Spielberg loves animation. He set up Amblimation, and when that shut down all the animators moved to DreamWorks. He may not have directed more animated films, but he's produced tons. "The Land Before Time," "An American Tail," "Balto," "We're Back!" He's also been a creative consultant on many DreamWorks films: he's the reason Toothless is in the room when Hiccup finds out he lost his leg, and basically told Dean DeBlois the script for HTTYD3 fucked so hard when he finally got it right, saying that it moved him to tears. He also has an excellent interview where he says every director should study animation. He's the ultimate animation weeb and it's great.

One director I'd recommend for a ranking video is Ridley Scott. I was thinking about him partially because "Napoleon" just came out, but I also think he's a fascinating director with such a weird output. Most directors have peaks and valleys in their careers going by a set period of time, but Scott has had good movies and bad movies come out back to back for pretty much his whole career. He made three stellar beginner movies (The Duelists, Alien, and Blade Runner), then vacillated in quality with each new release to where you never knew whether you were going to get another classic or a huge turkey at any point in his career. A ranking on his filmography would be absolutely wild and unpredictable.

Scott's television resume is pretty interesting too. He was one of the main producers on a couple of hardcore legal dramas, The Good Wife and The Good Fight. Not really what you would expect from a director of sci-fi.

Fun Fact: I saw Schindler’s List on a History class elective where you watch movies about topics you will learn about in your main History class, and I loved it so much. It was the best movie about a certain event in WW2 that I’m too scared to comment, and Schindler and Stern’s characters are incredible and I followed their goal on how they help a certain group of people save their lives. Steve himself ate the entire restaurant when making this movie even though this is my first time watching any of his movies.

Fun fact. In Jaws 2, which isn’t directed by Spielberg, there was a deleted scene where after Brody shot into the water thinking it was a shark, the city council voted to fire him and the mayor is the only one who votes to keep him because he knows that he was wrong in his actions in the first movie and that Brody is a genuine help. That is, in my opinion, one of the most underrated instances of character development in movies.

My English professor at UCLA wanted us to understand Shakespeare through modern eyes, and he asked us to pick a modern parallel. Almost all of us agreed with him that the only person who could possibly be comparable was Spielberg: a name that is synonymous with financially and critically successful entertainment across multiple genres (comedies, histories, fantasies, and tragedies). Someone who came from a modest enough background but climbed to the highest highs of his medium. This was actually very helpful for a lot of us who thought of Shakespeare as exclusively elevated art - and might’ve missed how approachable, universal, and entertaining his works really are.

I remember reading an interview with Spielberg talking about how working on Schindler’s list and Jurassic park at the same time was how he was able to handle making a movie so dark and despair filled because when he needed a break from the horror he’d go to Jurassic park and work on scenes for that movie, and after watching the fableman it’s almost tragic and sad knowing he had experienced using filmmaking as an escape before in his life.

i watched ai as a kid and that last scene BROKE me, like just remembering while watching this video made me tear up and almost start sobbing, it was the first time i saw a movie with such a bittersweet ending and it stuck with me to this day, i can never forget watching this with my parents and not getting up once throughout it all

I'd love if you looked at Don Bluths iconography. I think his history with Disney works really well with your knowledge of their animated iconography. And he was truley the first man to be competition to their monster of an animation studio that had the manopoly on animated movies for decades. The way he persevered his entire career even though it cost him everything, just because of the mature way he viewed animation is something to really be admired. He really doesn't get enough recognition for the affect he, his studios and his films had on the animation industry. I truly believe he is one of the reasons why the Disney Renaissance happened. He drove Disney into creating their most iconic and impressive era of filmmaking because of his own ambitions. It would really be nice to see him get some recognition as he really embodied the fact that animation was much more than something for children, but an art medium that could be used for much darker themes and stories.

I just want to add a few details about the Tintin movie: the reason we don't really see much about Tintin's professional life and how he seems to just "exist" in the world is actually pretty accurate to how he is in the original comics. Hergé, the author of Tintin, focused more on his adventures than his "paper work" life (the newspapers at the beginning are actually nods to some of his actual adventures in the albums), or his private life. The author simply didn't think it was as important as the adventures he would go on to live. As for Tintin himself, he was supposed to be just a reflection of what the author himself wanted to be, that later turned into the character being kind of a "blank slate" so that any child could see themselves or at least see him as a role model they could aspire to be. Hope that somehow clears up some of the doubts you had about some aspects of the characterization in the movie :)

I remember reading that the Castafiore Emerald was written specifically if he could create a Tintin adventure where absolutely no adventures happened, and I happen to love it. I loved the lower-stakes story full of character moments.

I had to do an assignment on Ready Player One once. The only reason I didn’t die from how bad it was is because everyone in the class, including my teacher, also through it was bad and we all made fun of it together during our watchthrough. It brought us all together in a heartwarming way.

The Indiana Jones takes are spot on PERFECT. I’m the only one in my family who believes Last Crusade is the best film. It’s one of my favorite movies ever made, and my all time favorite Action adventure Comedy. Raiders is great, but Last Crusade is what made me love Indiana Jones. Phenomenal take.

No, it's not a coincidence that the mayor from Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs reminds you of the one from Jaws. The director says in Cloudy's commentary that he directed the actor to play it like he was the mayor from Jaws.

I personally really loved lost world because of a few reasons The dinosaurs have unique colors and behave creative like the long grass raptors, agresive herbivores, protective t-rexes and the scavenger compy's The second reason is that they still kill some of the good characters mainly eddy Some of the sequences are cool like the long grass stegosaurus attack and the truck hanging off the cliff

To be fair to the TinTin movie, Herge himself never really established TinTin in the comics. He just appeared as a reporter in TinTin and the Soviets and that was that. Tintin went on with his adventures one after the other. One of the unique things about TinTin is, he has no background, no family members, no relatives, but he's still a likeable character. A rare feat Herge accomplished with the character. 👍

Not to mention that at first The Smurfs were a "spin-off" of the Johan and Pirlouit series! It was like a medieval comic series with fantasy elements and the Smurfs appear in one of their adventures... And probably because they were more marketable, the Smurfs still are popular nowadays while Johan and Pirlouit are pretty much forgotten.

Another thing I think is worth mentioning about Jurassic Park is that even though people today mostly talk about the stuff it got wrong about dinosaurs (like the raptors not being feathered etc.), for it's time the dinosaur designs were exceptionally up-to-date and accurate. For example, it was the first time T.rex was portrayed correctly in a horizontal body posture instead of an upright human-like stance, and it also emphasized a lot on the similarities between birds and dinosaurs, when people even today often think of dinosaurs as stupid, sluggish giant reptiles.

Well, it's a 50/50. Most of the dinosaurs were accurate back then but there are two huge mistakes: 1. Calling an oversized Deinonychus a Velociraptor 2. The movie Dilophosaurus being almost completely made up. But besides that, it was really accurate for the 90's

For that triceratops in Jurassic Park, it is actually real. In the Netflix series The Movies that Made Us, there's an episode about Jurassic Park, and they talk about how they did that scene. The built a physical model and had a lot of puppeteers underneath it to simulate the breathing. The T-rex is also real too, and seeing it in the studio looks terrifying. There were some shots where it was cgi, but others where it's practical effects, so that's why it might hold up so well.
