Just imagine working in that warehouse and a badly charred costume starts crawling towards you and you hear another one of the exact same costumes screaming the lyrics of It’s Been So Long by The Living Tombstone. I’d sacrifice myself on accident
Mate, respect level x100 for the amount of hours and work dedicated into this, we watch it for 2.5 hours and complain about all the mistakes, goofs and poor ending, these guys endure countless hours, hundreds of people in departments working together just to bring together a scene. Hats off to you all...
I just love the whole Matrix team's dedication on how they worked on both the traditional and digital craft. And also Hugo's professionalism. They really did a lot of effort to make this film forever a masterpiece.
And here I was thinking they simply hired a handful of people that looked similar to him and then did camera magic to duplicate him on screen. Holy hell being buried alive in plaster mold is some dedication to the craft. Well done Hugo
I still think Hugo Weaving was a great casting decision. He just has a natural scowl and menacing eyebrows, sorta like Jack Nicholson. He also was required to do a lot of his stunts, which is practically unheard of in massive action movies like these.
they were cgi in the in the courtyard fight against the smith clones, especially neo. Just hard to spot. But especially neo in some extreme moves like the spin with the iron bar or the slowmotion kick before that scene that's where you could see pretty well they used cgi and probably not just for neo. Neo really looked like a animated video game character there with smoother skin and clothes etc. pretty obvious.
Though I'm not the biggest fan of CGI, it still takes a lot of work/time for the artists. I've sat in a few sessions just to see how it's done and it's not easy.
OMG, the amount of efforts, time and money they spent to make those great movies is un imaginable. Can't even comprehend the efforts Hugo had to sit still for longer hours just to make his face molds, that's beyond me. Respect for all of them, cast, directors, producers, and anyone participated in those great movies.
This is a lot of dedication just to make the scene actually look good, you don't tend to see this much dedication in movies nowadays, it's why The Matrix is one of my favourite movies of all time
Sure the many Smiths are amazing, but the real story is the rain rig that caused a completely controllable indoor deluge take after take after take. I'm pretty sure thats an untold story of secret special effects work.
Its essentialy a big fire suppression rig suspended by a crane. They use them all the time for rainy scenes, nature isnt very cooperative so they make em pretty big for outdoor scenes.
@@stormteam3004 I'm an educated person. I'm smart enough to be able to read the hundreds of medical reports on vaccines to know they are real. What evidence of conspiracy do you have?

Man that must be so uncomfortable. Hugo has some nerves. Claustrophobia from the cast as well as the psychological mindf•uck of seeing yourself 100 times!
@@Don-pk2uy Can you tell me how bad is it? I haven't watched it though. I'm just curious because they're hyping the movie up like it's going to be the best movie of the year but then everyone hates it.
@@alesongjay3577 it’s not bad, people just became a hive mind on the internet. Most don’t even know where they got the idea to not like the movie.

And now part of the machines works alongside these humans in Io. Merovingian is a homeless and Neo shoot Ki Blasts and use a Ki Shield now. Sati (the indian girl in the metro station who appears in Revolutions) saves the day, because Neo is a completely shmuck in the entire movie.
I actually thought Hugo Weaving filmed a lot of scenes and then those scenes got composed in one scene. But pretty sure Hugo's face got pasted in most scenes, because in the final films you can see them doing expressions.
Smith in my opinion is the real ONE the ONE who was born inside the matrix and raise by it. He called the Oracle "mom". He is the software who really revolutionize he sistem. We really miss you Hugo.
This gives me a whole new appreciation for movies like The Matrix trilogy. We go to the movies and see the finished product not realizing all the hard work that went into making them.

All this work just for a couple of shots of multiple Smiths in the background... amazing dedication and craftsmanship.
Factz guess they did want them to look more authentic then they did in part two
And money wasted
This comment deserves more likes. Not only that, this scene deserves the same attention
They won a lot of money so I guess it worthed every single effort.
Too bad the scenes/whole movie sucked
Imagine real hugo standing there with the dummies and the director be like "where the hell is he" .
Yeah lol 🤣
hahahaha +1
🤣

Haha there should be an outtake parody of The Real Slim Shady...
"Will the real Agent Smith please stand up? please stand up?"
There's a warehouse full of grumpy Smiths somewhere.
The warehouse you seek is the Warner Brothers Archive Warehouse where they keep the Agent Smith Doubles
I had the same thought exactly
Some might be in collectors houses. People like to buy weird stuff like that for their collections.

Wow all these years I thought that shot was CGI now i found out they were real agent Smith's... freaking awesome. I love the matrix
You so simple and shortminded
Ikr, amazing work they did
Well the scene where he was fighting all of them in the 2nd film was, obviously lol
The matrix is telling you someone..we are all part of their evil matrix..people you need to accend out of their matrix!!!🤫😳😷😎
3 years after u man ,,, same
Imagine all those extras who can rightfully claim: "I played Agent Smith in The Matrix 3"
This is how real movies are done with so much art and effort.
Hugo Weaving is a very underated Actor!
He made us Hate him in The Matrix and made us Respect him in LOTR Trilogy!
Say what you want about the Transformers movies but he was amazing as Megatron and was one of the best things about the movie...
An actor that has been in two of the biggest blockbusters of a generation is underrated?
And as V he managed to act the lead role of a movie without showing his face.
All you need for a matrix movie is: 1 Keanu, 1 Morpheus, 1 Trinity and 182 Hugo Weavings..
These two films are my best of all =))
I thought that all those smith was made by computer!!!
+++
And I thought that Smith's clones were Hugo Weaving digitally added 80 times in a single scene.
No such technology in 90s
@@dcsf1 It would've look worse for sure.
That's is why i like old movies, those efforts and creative way they put into it, instead of just pressing a few button on the computer.
ใช่เลย
"Pressing a few button on the computer!
They make good story with that kind of effort.
You dont know nothing about computers and CGI
This makes me appreciate this masterpiece even more!
No doubt that their hard work and creativity made THE MATRIX one of the best science fiction movie ever made.
it's a cult classic
Holy Cow! This is a zillion times better than the crappy CGI. Kudos to the people involved in cloning agent Smith. What a great guy Hugo Weaving is.
somewhere in some hollywood wharehouse there's just a shitload of hugo weavings

"Mr. Anderson", that's the best voice acting I heard in the trilogy.
seriously, this fucking insane hard work worth it. despite all criticism, matrix was overall a undeniable great movie trilogy
dfo 99 Better than LOTR?
there's no passion anymore, today it's all done on the computer, even the rain
All the difference bw LOTR and The Hobbbit
I just love the whole Matrix team's dedication on how they worked on both the traditional and digital craft. And also Hugo's professionalism. They really did a lot of effort to make this film forever a masterpiece.
holy shit they were real physical object, i thought It was computerized shit
Hardwork pays off & show itself...
We didn't know they did so much for those few shots. But everybody liked the MATRIX....
watching this is better than watching matrix 4 :D
I thought this was CGI, HOLY SHT
Yeah me too
me too man
silly YOU
The hard work paid off, those scenes were epic
The slow head turns in the finish product have me goosebumps
And here I was thinking they simply hired a handful of people that looked similar to him and then did camera magic to duplicate him on screen. Holy hell being buried alive in plaster mold is some dedication to the craft. Well done Hugo
If only the same amount of effort was put into the 4th film
I still think Hugo Weaving was a great casting decision. He just has a natural scowl and menacing eyebrows, sorta like Jack Nicholson. He also was required to do a lot of his stunts, which is practically unheard of in massive action movies like these.
And his sexy menacing voice
unforgettable American accent
The actor they chose for Resurrections is not even close to be on his league. They had to put some flashbacks mid scene to show some similarity.
They could never get my face mold. I would have an axiety attack if they put that shit all over my head😅
I was looking for this comment... my heart started racing watching it 🤣
I wouldn’t be able to breath for anxiety

You gotta love how they use to invest in to movies back in the day

That is insane! That they did it all manually instead of CGI!
I though the Smiths were CGI
I now give this movie a new rating.
Almost 20 years later, and just now, I know how that was made. Fantastic! Congrats!
If I was Hugo, I would've played a prank on them and hid amongst the many agent Smith's. Imagine the film crew trying to look for him.
Practical effects still kick ass, just look at Black Panther, that stuff looked shit. Then look at the Batman movies from my man Christopher Nolan.
Ho is the hell that 500 that can dislike this hard artistic work?
They thought was real the story. The frustration was big. D=
601 BASTARDS)))
The amount of hardwork and dedication put on these scenes are more than the entirety of Resurrections.
I thought it was generated by cgi
Yup lol.
@techminds Well, whatever that kid was talking, he deleted it and I didn't get a chance to know what crappy argument he was having with you.
So, somewhere in a warehouse are a bunch of Agent Smiths. Imagine walking in there by accident.

Huge props to Hugo peing patient enough to get those molds done.

You just know a person is a great actor when giving interviews they look COMPLETELY like a different person.

how could they make a matrix without smith , ironic !
Exactly. No Smith no morphius idk why who these ppl are so I could t watch it
