00:05:06 ◼   ► mad [TS]

00:05:06 ◼   ► come on space invaders are read an [TS]

00:05:09 ◼   ► article that said that many of the video [TS]

00:05:11 ◼   ► game companies didn't want their [TS]

00:05:12 ◼   ► intellectual property loot used [TS]

00:05:14 ◼   ► suggesting that they were you know [TS]

00:05:15 ◼   ► down-on-their-luck that's why Qbert was [TS]

00:05:18 ◼   ► homeless because that was the only video [TS]

00:05:20 ◼   ► game character they could find where the [TS]

00:05:22 ◼   ► owner of the intellectual property was [TS]

00:05:24 ◼   ► willing to have their character [TS]

00:05:27 ◼   ► portrayed in a somewhat questionable [TS]

00:05:29 ◼   ► light which is funny because I thought [TS]

00:05:31 ◼   ► Qbert actually came off really [TS]

00:05:32 ◼   ► sympathetic in a way that maybe you know [TS]

00:05:36 ◼   ► others didn't that was something [TS]

00:05:37 ◼   ► watching the trailers that I should have [TS]

00:05:39 ◼   ► realized but didn't when I was sitting [TS]

00:05:40 ◼   ► in there when I got done with the movie [TS]

00:05:41 ◼   ► like you know what [TS]

00:05:42 ◼   ► why did I think this movie was going to [TS]

00:05:44 ◼   ► be filled with a million video game [TS]

00:05:46 ◼   ► characters because they have would have [TS]

00:05:47 ◼   ► to either pay for get permission for all [TS]

00:05:49 ◼   ► those but then on the flip side of that [TS]

00:05:51 ◼   ► like the wait a second if you do [TS]

00:05:53 ◼   ► something as parody isn't that protected [TS]

00:05:55 ◼   ► and you don't have to like get the [TS]

00:05:56 ◼   ► permission so i'm i'm confused as to [TS]

00:05:58 ◼   ► what the legalities are about doing [TS]

00:05:59 ◼   ► stuff but it's not really parody is it i [TS]

00:06:01 ◼   ► mean it's more like fanservice in an [TS]

00:06:03 ◼   ► actual parody they never liked to do [TS]

00:06:05 ◼   ► peridot no studio wants to parody [TS]

00:06:07 ◼   ► because if they do it then they enable [TS]

00:06:08 ◼   ► others to do it so if it's defensible [TS]

00:06:10 ◼   ► they could be hit with a lawsuit and [TS]

00:06:12 ◼   ► then they're saying it's ok another than [TS]

00:06:14 ◼   ► one actually you know step up and make [TS]

00:06:15 ◼   ► it ok so you think they got permission [TS]

00:06:17 ◼   ► for everything they use didn't have to [TS]

00:06:19 ◼   ► pay for everything is because it seemed [TS]

00:06:21 ◼   ► like there was way fewer references then [TS]

00:06:23 ◼   ► I thought they were would be not just [TS]

00:06:25 ◼   ► like that the movie hinges on this but [TS]

00:06:27 ◼   ► so I went to the to the screening at the [TS]

00:06:30 ◼   ► disney studios the presidio now with a [TS]

00:06:33 ◼   ► couple of the tech I've people and the [TS]

00:06:35 ◼   ► directors were there and the producer [TS]

00:06:36 ◼   ► and they said that yes they went out and [TS]

00:06:38 ◼   ► they got for most of the things they got [TS]

00:06:41 ◼   ► permission from the you know original [TS]

00:06:43 ◼   ► intellectual property owners there were [TS]

00:06:45 ◼   ► a few places where they said that you [TS]

00:06:49 ◼   ► know an animator we just stick something [TS]

00:06:50 ◼   ► in the background and later on they be [TS]

00:06:51 ◼   ► produced and say [TS]

00:06:53 ◼   ► back is that and uh yeah but for the [TS]

00:06:55 ◼   ► most part they said especially for the [TS]

00:06:57 ◼   ► things that actually spoke her you know [TS]

00:06:59 ◼   ► had some kind of a of you know the [TS]

00:07:02 ◼   ► forefront of the of the of the movie [TS]

00:07:04 ◼   ► overseen they got permission so but i [TS]

00:07:07 ◼   ► think they said there were something [TS]

00:07:08 ◼   ► like 300 characters from different video [TS]

00:07:13 ◼   ► games at various places in the movie and [TS]

00:07:15 ◼   ► they were all in that one wide shot [TS]

00:07:17 ◼   ► right-handed one shot that's exactly [TS]

00:07:19 ◼   ► what I kept I kept trying to watch look [TS]

00:07:21 ◼   ► in the background feeling like you know [TS]

00:07:24 ◼   ► surely there are references back there [TS]

00:07:26 ◼   ► and and they're gonna want to get their [TS]

00:07:27 ◼   ► money's worth and i found myself [TS]

00:07:28 ◼   ► focusing on the background and all those [TS]

00:07:30 ◼   ► scenes instead of actually paying [TS]

00:07:32 ◼   ► attention to what was happening in the [TS]

00:07:33 ◼   ► foreground [TS]

00:07:34 ◼   ► I just know there's going to be sin [TS]

00:07:35 ◼   ► estar waiting for a bus somewhere and [TS]

00:07:37 ◼   ► I'm not gonna miss it when it happens I [TS]

00:07:40 ◼   ► wait for the boss was the difficulty in [TS]

00:07:43 ◼   ► putting in references because i would [TS]

00:07:44 ◼   ► imagine that it's probably easier to get [TS]

00:07:46 ◼   ► references to like to get permission for [TS]

00:07:48 ◼   ► like old stuff like you but no one cares [TS]

00:07:50 ◼   ► about any more right than it would be to [TS]

00:07:51 ◼   ► get something modern who doesn't care [TS]

00:07:53 ◼   ► about Qbert everybody loves Qbert well [TS]

00:07:56 ◼   ► but the thing is the movie they they [TS]

00:07:58 ◼   ► decided to aesthetically that every [TS]

00:07:59 ◼   ► character in the movie would be rendered [TS]

00:08:01 ◼   ► more or less as a coherent 3d [TS]

00:08:04 ◼   ► incarnation even if in the original [TS]

00:08:06 ◼   ► video game they're made up of six blue [TS]

00:08:08 ◼   ► dots right so if you're looking for like [TS]

00:08:11 ◼   ► the iconic little triangle anything from [TS]

00:08:14 ◼   ► centipede or millipede I maybe you [TS]

00:08:18 ◼   ► wouldn't see it because it doesn't look [TS]

00:08:19 ◼   ► like the same set of dots that you're [TS]

00:08:20 ◼   ► used to have to look like some sort of [TS]

00:08:22 ◼   ► three dimensional crystal pointy thing [TS]

00:08:24 ◼   ► you know so it was a little bit hard for [TS]

00:08:26 ◼   ► me to pick up stuff that's somewhat [TS]

00:08:28 ◼   ► defeating the point well I mean this [TS]

00:08:29 ◼   ► they could have done going in that [TS]

00:08:30 ◼   ► direction that could have done this [TS]

00:08:32 ◼   ► movie as you know you are in the world [TS]

00:08:34 ◼   ► of classic video games and everything is [TS]

00:08:36 ◼   ► rendered like a classic video game that [TS]

00:08:38 ◼   ► would definitely be less accessible and [TS]

00:08:40 ◼   ► more like 10 just it makes coherent [TS]

00:08:42 ◼   ► sense because you go through the screen [TS]

00:08:44 ◼   ► suddenly you're in a 3d you know world [TS]

00:08:46 ◼   ► where yeah exactly anything to look too [TS]

00:08:48 ◼   ► d in our world would be already there so [TS]

00:08:50 ◼   ► does it doesn't make narrative sense but [TS]

00:08:53 ◼   ► it kind of wrecks the whole let's show a [TS]

00:08:56 ◼   ► bunch of video game references [TS]

00:08:57 ◼   ► yeah and not just references but like it [TS]

00:08:59 ◼   ► you know like there's there are certain [TS]

00:09:01 ◼   ► characteristics about the world of video [TS]

00:09:02 ◼   ► games that you can riff on [TS]

00:09:04 ◼   ► and one of them especially in a classic [TS]

00:09:06 ◼   ► arcade is everything that was really low [TS]

00:09:08 ◼   ► fidelity but if once you make that [TS]

00:09:09 ◼   ► creative decision to have you okay no [TS]

00:09:12 ◼   ► one in this world they'll all look like [TS]

00:09:13 ◼   ► you know kind of like Pixar people but [TS]

00:09:16 ◼   ► not quite as nicely rendered then you're [TS]

00:09:18 ◼   ► giving up a whole section that you could [TS]

00:09:20 ◼   ► have mined for interesting things about [TS]

00:09:21 ◼   ► things being made of pixels or [TS]

00:09:23 ◼   ► two-dimensional or electron beams or you [TS]

00:09:25 ◼   ► know stuff like that but you know the [TS]

00:09:26 ◼   ► one thing they did those they did have [TS]

00:09:30 ◼   ► of characters so in the wreck it ralph [TS]

00:09:32 ◼   ► game the citizens of the people live in [TS]

00:09:35 ◼   ► the apartment building have that kind of [TS]

00:09:37 ◼   ► jerky motion [TS]

00:09:38 ◼   ► I'm not sure they had all the time [TS]

00:09:39 ◼   ► either it seemed inconsistent and in I [TS]

00:09:42 ◼   ► don't think any other characters in any [TS]

00:09:43 ◼   ► of the other scenes had like a eight [TS]

00:09:47 ◼   ► bitty movement feel ya [TS]

00:10:09 ◼   ► of animation which is very in Congress [TS]

00:10:11 ◼   ► like I know what they were going for [TS]

00:10:12 ◼   ► they want to have their cake and eat it [TS]

00:10:13 ◼   ► too they said yeah well we want to make [TS]

00:10:15 ◼   ► the joke about how there's so few frames [TS]

00:10:16 ◼   ► of animation and old games but we also [TS]

00:10:18 ◼   ► want to look 3d and it didn't come off [TS]

00:10:21 ◼   ► as well as it would have if they had [TS]

00:10:22 ◼   ► gone on one direction of the other is it [TS]

00:10:24 ◼   ► is ever call when they they were we're [TS]

00:10:26 ◼   ► we're listening to the director and [TS]

00:10:29 ◼   ► original concept they thought about [TS]

00:10:31 ◼   ► doing the entire movie sort of like [TS]

00:10:33 ◼   ► 8-bit animation and they just realized [TS]

00:10:35 ◼   ► that you know April animation is retro [TS]

00:10:38 ◼   ► cool but you can't really do things like [TS]

00:10:41 ◼   ► animated emotions and facial expressions [TS]

00:10:44 ◼   ► and it just isn't it is interesting they [TS]

00:10:47 ◼   ► found it just wasn't engaging also [TS]

00:10:49 ◼   ► restrict the appeal for their soundtrack [TS]

00:10:50 ◼   ► well it depends on who they're making [TS]

00:10:52 ◼   ► the movie for they making a movie for a [TS]

00:10:53 ◼   ► bunch of video game geeks that are [TS]
