#IT’S REAL AND LOOKS TINY BECAUSE OF THE SHORT FOCAL LENGTH
Specifically, I believe it looks tiny because of a combination of the short focal length, low framerate and being sped up.
I find it really fascinating that this works, because this is not playing on anything about the human visual system in itself as far as I can tell – it’s just calling on our prior experiences seeing photos and videos of tiny things in stop-motion. I’ve never actually, consciously noticed that photos of tiny things have a tighter focus with more pronounced blurring, and I couldn’t immediately tell at all that that had anything to do with making these gifs look small, but my brain knows because of decades’ worth of photographs that this is what photos of small things look like, and thus infers that these objects must be small.
Similarly, crude stop-motion animation of miniatures tends to have a low framerate, so the low framerate means it’s probably small. Small things generally move faster than big things, so something like an airplane on a runway moving that fast must be a miniature. Just the brain, making deductions from past experiences. This is neat. I wonder if small children, or people from cultures less exposed to photography, would just fail to get the miniature feeling at all.
can you believe that steve rogers dropped everything to find out whether bucky perished with the majority of the 107th? like he legit was like SCREW EVERYTHING WHERE IS BUCKY B-A-R-N-E-S I DON’T CARE IF U KNOW HOW TO SPELL IT IMMA SPELL IT FOR U ANYWAY THAT’S MY HUSBAND
viggo mortensen’s appeal as aragorn is 70% the voice, 25% the scene where the wild horse saves him from drowning, 12% hair, 8% ‘the beacons are lit!’, 3% swinging around the broken blade, 1.03% spitting soup back into the bowl on a windy day, .3% the way he speaks elvish (which mostly fits into the voice, but its elvish so its special), and .0004% when he kicks the orc head and screams
DON’T FORGET HE ACTUALLY BROKE HIS TOE WHEN HE KICKED THE HELMET!
Some ppl say comedy is dead cause of “political correctness” but like john mulaney did an entire bit on captchas and bo burnham did an entire bit on not being able to fit ur hand inside a pringles can so really anything is possible as long as ur actually funny
when are we gonna get a superhero movie where the main characters just ugly as shit, just a fucking neanderthal looking guy
doctor strange
How strange that people, who once raved about how dreamy Cumberbatch was before whatever happened happened (I literally don’t know), now start mocking his appearance. You can be attractive and a terrible person… if that is the case. Tear someone down you don’t like using actual arguments, not being a dickwaffle about their physical appearance which they LITERALLY cannot help.
Lemme stress this again. I don’t know what happened to make people start hating him. I am not in the loop on that and honestly I’d like to know so I can speak knowledgeably, but there are people out there who are self-conscious who might have some of his facial structure or traits who you just made feel extremely bad about themselves.
Literally nothing other then he getting popular made people start hating him. I am a Fan for a while and really? He NEVER had any drama around him. Nothing. None. Niente. He just got popular, and so hating him became popular.
Also, I personally like him! He is definetly a fresh face, and someone I do not confuse all the time with someone else! (Looking at Christian Bale and Keanu Reeves, which I still confuse to this day…)
Also, lets be honest here. Deadpool is one ugly mofo, there is no denying. Not the actor, but the role, that is kind of the point there xD
“He NEVER had any drama around him”? Are you fucking sure about that?
