Damn. It’s surreal to me that this film is nearly 100 years old. I remember owning this on VHS as a kid in the 90’s. I used to love all these stop motion dinosaur films. To think in another decade, King Kong will be 100 years old.
I've always loved the sort of diorama look of the landscapes. As a kid, I'd look at stills from this movie and want to trek through that jungle to see what was in the mountains in the backdrop.
For The Lost World, Willis H. O'Brien made 49 model dinosaurs. These miniatures were donated to the Museum of Arts and Sciences in Los Angeles. After many years the rubber models began to sulphurize and disintegrate. They were stored away and inadvertently sealed between the walls of the facility when a new wing was added.
While filming one of the stop-motion scenes, the cameraman spotted a pair of pliers in the picture. So as not to draw attention to them by having them suddenly disappear, he moved them a little at a time until they were out of the shot.
7:25 huh. It's nice to see the Triceratops as a heavy weight anti predator rather than something instantly killed by whatever comes along. Literally 1 minute latter. Oh for God's sake!
@@deweymartin678 Well you see, the original animator(s) of The Lost World (1925) are all dead (mainly Willis H. O'Brien) and the Spider pit sequence of Kong (also an O'Brien project) was never even filmed, and it's disputed whether it was even considered for the film, and the creator (O'Brien) died in 1962, so it's kinda impossible for the creator to make the Spider pit sequence. Although there is a version created by Peter Jackson, attempting to recreate what it would have been like if it were in the film.
@@Dapper-Lil-dudeFirst. No, I mean the guy who showed us this wonderful video should recreate the Spider Pit Sequence, he only made one small part which looked so good. Second. It was filmed but the scenes where Lost and The director of King Kong (1933) said that all of the deleted scenes where destroyed in a fire at RKO. Third. I wish I had a third.
@@deweymartin678 Fair enough, but attempting to create a faithful recreation would be a huge undertaking, but it should be known that Merian C. Cooper wasn't exactly a perfect account, especially due to his reputation of embellishing details and straight up lying, also It's been stated that the spider put sequence was never in the filming schedule, along with the rooftop scene (If my memory serves me correctly that's what it's called) but the story of a fire at RKO is decent evidence as that did happen. But there is no evidence it exists aside from an unreliable account

That first shot reminds me from Paradise Falls from Up
They were intentionally referencing the lost world
There Were No Dinosaurs In That Pixar Film, It Only Had A Big Bird Named Kevin.
Because that image came from The Lost World.
@@Reidy1902I’m gonna be that guy and say that birds ARE dinosaurs.
You are doing the Lord’s work my friend! These are amazing. ❤
Finally. Now, do "One Million Years B.C. (1966) - Stop Motion Shots"

"Seriously, mate! This isn't the time for that!"
"But I only wanted a ride!"
Nice clean post Alex. A joy to watch!

0:45-3:21 I had no idea this was in stop motion animation
4:02: Jurassic World Dominion paid homage to this.
Always Loved the Agathamus in the older Days
Do King Kong stop motion shots

Where's that in the movie?
Well he did a good job, because I haven't seen them.
Estos efectos son mucho mejor que los de muchas películas de dinosaurios de bajo presupuesto de hoy
Eyewitness brought me here
コナン・ドイルの原作の失われた世界の最古の映画化ですね~😮

Uhhhm actually thats an agathaumas🤓👆
You could make the case it was still tired out from that last fight.
The creator should make the lost pit spider pit sequence from King Kong (1933)
Unfortunately the original creator is kinda dead
