Space may be the final frontier, but it's made in a Hollywood basement.

And Cobain, can you hear the spheres singing songs off Station To Station?
And Alderaan's not far away, it's Californication

Well at least that one made sense from a financial point of view. Usually scenes in the Moon or even Mars would be cheaper to film on site.

Hold up, TARS was a animatronic!? That's so cool, I thought it was full CGI.

Edit- Actually I think it was CASE that landed on Miller with them, oop

Here's some behind-the-scenes about them https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x7xe84b

It was manually puppeted most of the time rather than being animatronic, but obviously with all the things that TARS and CASE can do they had to build different props for each one

Awesome thanks for sharing. This movie was a master class.

Tars is real, and he loves you

[–] Sergio@slrpnk.net 21 points 1 year ago

They're filming a version in space, but in one day in space is like a dozen years on Earth so it won't be done until 2187.

Capricorn One was ahead of its time, the whole movie was about the Mars landing being filmed on Earth… completely filmed on Earth.

[–] rdri@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

[–] nesc@lemmy.cafe 6 points 1 year ago

Big if true 🤔

[–] pyre@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

that's capitalism for you. they cut so many corners they don't even shoot on location anymore.

[–] Sterile_Technique@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

Bullshit. Remember the waves? Like Earth could pull anything like that off.

[–] don@lemm.ee 5 points 1 year ago

[–] lugal@sopuli.xyz 3 points 1 year ago

Not even disappointed at this point tbh

[–] ivanafterall@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Is this the newest bullshit from the "moon landing was filmed on a Hollywood set" crowd? How'd they make his kids age without relativistic effects from a black hole, geniuses? Science is your friend, no need to fear it.
