        I was only a few days ago old when I found out that the Borg Queen cybernetic torso insert from First Contact was a practical effect.

    I remember the first few times I saw the video, it was pretty cool, just moving walls and that’s it

      It’s an obvious principle but clearly lots of work. Those are some big and far moving walls, which are also strong enough to almost not bend being touched and pushing furniture around, and so few cuts, and the set getting soaked with fake blood… No wonder they didn’t shoot another take when he accidentally used a slightly different-color sweater for the last part

    The furnature in the room never gets knocked over in the video though.

      The couch bumps up against the wall and gets pushed across the floor just like the guy and table, but the couch is more stable.

      It doesn’t matter how the person and table collide with the wall, the collision is gonna cause it and the person to fall.

        It’s been a while since I’ve watched the music video but I don’t recall any collisions. Guess I’ve gotta watch it again now

          It’s a great video even after finding out how it was made! Kinda like rewatching The 6th Sense.

            I’ve actually never seen The 6th Sense. I’ve always actually heard that knowing the spoiler made it lame so I just keep skipping it.

              I disagree. Seeing it without the spoilers and then again after lets the hints about the ending be more apparent.

              It was pretty novel at the time and enough movies have taken the same approach that I think it would be hard to watch it blind and not catch all the hints, much less if you know the outcome. There are better movies since then that pull off the same twist, it mainly comes up because it was one of the earliest well known movies that did it.

      The furniture was moving any time that it didn’t appear to be, but the singer did.

      It would be a lot easier to make if he just moved like that.

You are not logged in. However you can subscribe from another Fediverse account, for example Lemmy or Mastodon. To do this, paste the following into the search field of your instance: !comicstrips@lemmy.world

Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.

Rules
  1. 😇 Be Nice!

    • Treat others with respect and dignity. Friendly banter is okay, as long as it is mutual; keyword: friendly.
  2. 🏘️ Community Standards

    • Comics should be a full story, from start to finish, in one post.
    • Posts should be safe and enjoyable by the majority of community members, both here on lemmy.world and other instances.
    • Any comic that would qualify as raunchy, lewd, or otherwise draw unwanted attention by nosy coworkers, spouses, or family members should be tagged as NSFW.
    • Moderators have final say on what and what does not qualify as appropriate. Use common sense, and if need be, err on the side of caution.
  3. 🧬 Keep it Real

    • Comics should be made and posted by real human beans, not by automated means like bots or AI. This is not the community for that sort of thing.
  4. 📽️ Credit Where Credit is Due

    • Comics should include the original attribution to the artist(s) involved, and be unmodified. Bonus points if you include a link back to their website. When in doubt, use a reverse image search to try to find the original version. Repeat offenders will have their posts removed, be temporarily banned from posting, or if all else fails, be permanently banned from posting.
    • Attributions include, but are not limited to, watermarks, links, or other text or imagery that artists add to their comics to use for identification purposes. If you find a comic without any such markings, it would be a good idea to see if you can find an original version. If one cannot be found, say so and ask the community for help!
  5. 📋 Post Formatting

    • Post an image, gallery, or link to a specific comic hosted on another site; e.g., the author’s website.
    • Meta posts about the community should be tagged with [Meta] either at the beginning or the end of the post title.
    • When linking to a comic hosted on another site, ensure the link is to the comic itself and not just to the website; e.g.,
      ✅ Correct: https://xkcd.com/386/
      ❌ Incorrect: https://xkcd.com/
  6. 📬 Post Frequency/SPAM

    • Each user (regardless of instance) may post up to five (5 🖐) comics a day. This can be any combination of personal comics you have written yourself, or other author’s comics. Any comics exceeding five (5 🖐) will be removed.
  7. 🏴‍☠️ Internationalization (i18n)

    • Non-English posts are welcome. Please tag the post title with the original language, and include an English translation in the body of the post; e.g.,
      Sí, por favor [Spanish/Español]
  8. 🍿 Moderation

    • We are human, just like most everybody else on Lemmy. If you feel a moderation decision was made in error, you are welcome to reach out to anybody on the moderation team for clarification. Keep in mind that moderation decisions may be final.
    • When reporting posts and/or comments, quote which rule is being broken, and why you feel it broke the rules.
Banned Artists

The following artists are banned from the community.

  1. Jago
  2. Stonetoss
  3. GPrime85

It should be noted that when you make reports, it is your responsibility to provide rational reasoning why something should be removed. Saying it simply breaks community rules is not always good enough.

Web Accessibility

Note: This is not a rule, but a helpful suggestion.

When posting images, you should strive to add alt-text for screen readers to use to describe the image you’re posting:

  • Markdown - Links / Images

Another helpful thing to do is to provide a transcription of the text in your images, as well as brief descriptions of what’s going on. (example)
