Elijah Wood presents the Oscar for Visual Effects to Dennis Muren, Stan Winston, Phil Tippett and Michael Lantieri for Jurassic Park at the 66th Academy Awards.
A K well never made a decent film ?? He was a part of really good films after but I think your talking about with him as a big main character/ the lead
He deserved it. Both films are amazing. "Jurassic Park" an incredible sci-fi film (at the time it became the highest grossing movie ever, until "Titanic" four years later), "Schindler's List" a tearful depiction of a businessman's heroism during the Holocaust.
*Jurassic Park* (#1) and *Schindler's List* (#4) both were among the Top 5 highest-grossing films of 1993! I can't imagine a 3-hour, black-and-white, historical biopic achieving that these days.
That would be absolutely ridiculous and similar to the golden globes! Whats the point in making a big hoopla about the awards and who might when, and when someone does when they don't have enough time to thank those they want to thank.
I think this is another thing missing from today's Oscars -- they actually go into a little bit of detail about each movie nominated, showing how they did it. Today they just skim over everything. They show a 2 second clip and move on to the stars and speeches. Then again, seeing as how nearly everything is done with computers nowadays, it's not as exciting as seeing them create models and do it all by hand like they used to.
It's still quite complicated to create something so magical with your computer. A friend of mine studied in animation 3D, and to create something like that, you must be very skilled.
1:09 the Jurassic movie score is just unmatched. That music still gives me goosebumps when it plays. It instilles real real dread when that music plays and u know raptors are around. Such a fantastic movie.
And Elijah's reaction... it makes me think of what T-Rex should say: T-Rex: "Don't worry, Little human. I won't bite." Gollum: "I will! He stole The Precious--!" T-Rex: "QUIET!!" *crushes Gollum with his foot and addresses to Elijah* "Here's the envelope."
He looked so small then, just like in LOTR a few years later. Btw it is remarkable that Spielberg produced two of the most iconic movies of all time in the same year, Schindler’s List and Jurassic Park. Amazing.
I have this cerimony - and some others. In Oscar history there were years that one movie was so superior in a category that it was the only one nominated. I've always found amazing that Jurassic Park wasn't the only movie nominated for visual effects that year.
Fun fact: Cliffhanger actually won but the T-Rex 🦖 killed the woman who was supposed to bring the real envelope. He switched the envelope and the rest was history
I still can’t believe Elijah is only 13 years old here. 13 and he’s announcing awards at the oscars! But yes, Jurassic Park truly deserves that award. Still looks excellent today
Lord of the Rings began its (admittedly very early) pre-production just four years later how come he still sounded like that in 1994? Man kids grow up so fast.
+Megan Woodard Yup, Jurassic Park was originally going to be claymation like Nightmare Before Christmans, they even had the shots done. But they decided it wasn't good enough, Phil was the guy who did the claymation but they decided to have him lead the animation team instead. There is footage of claymation Jurrassic Park out there, saw it in a documentary but can't find the original footage on youtube.
Megan Woodard the reason why Jurassic Park won because it changed VFX! So that movie deserved it (just like Terminator 2: Judgment Day because that movie also changed VFX as well)
@@MrSirFluffy sand Phil Tippett recently released a stop-motion movie called Mad God on Shudder in 2021. A year later, Henry Selick (the director of Nightmare Before Christmas,) released Wendell & Wild, in collaboration with Jordan Peele.
Well it's not like there was any surprise anyway ^^ Cliffhanger and Nightmare Before Christmas were pretty much there only for show, I have no doubt they knew that they would never get that award.
It’s bullshit that this is Nightmare’s only nomination as it should have been nominated for more like Original Score, Original Song (This is Halloween) and Best Picture.
I’m sure if the Best Animated Feature category was added in the 90s instead of the early 2000s, The Nightmare Before Christmas would’ve been nominated and, in my personal opinion, won the Oscar for Best Animated Feature.
Macaulay Culkin was scheduled to present this award and say "Thanks Dad!" to the T-Rex when it gave him the envelope. Culkin's father was offended and yanked Mac from the show.
Little did Elijah know that he'd be apart of a series of groundbreaking visual effects films almost a decade later...
a part*
Michael Coletti fuck up dumbass
Little did he know 2 decades later he would never make a decent film ever again
A K you liked your own comment lmao
A K well never made a decent film ?? He was a part of really good films after but I think your talking about with him as a big main character/ the lead
wow, Elijah hosted like a boss
*presented
I'm surprise he's cool when he was a kid before Lord Of The Rings Trilogy
What a year for Steven Spielberg. Jurassic Park AND Schindler’s List.
He deserved it. Both films are amazing. "Jurassic Park" an incredible sci-fi film (at the time it became the highest grossing movie ever, until "Titanic" four years later), "Schindler's List" a tearful depiction of a businessman's heroism during the Holocaust.
*Jurassic Park* (#1) and *Schindler's List* (#4) both were among the Top 5 highest-grossing films of 1993! I can't imagine a 3-hour, black-and-white, historical biopic achieving that these days.
Spielberg directored Jurassic Park & Schindler's List AT THE SAME TIME.
...and SJW femmies say men can't multitask.
What if the Holocaust was caused by Big man eating Dinosours!
every movie seems to be 3 hours these days..@@musicaltheatergeek79
Elijah Wood: My movie trilogy is going to dominate this category in about eight years.
And it will be called Lord of the Rings.
Ahaha
One trilogy to rule them all.
I guess everyone expected this to win. 'Jurassic Park' is a masterpiece. I can rewatch it over and over again
I hope in the future when the effects start to age they update them only slightly in a remastered version that keeps its integrity.
@@Andman8210 the thing with jp^is that it was real,,, not only cgi..so you can feel the weigth
This boy has a charisma.
Maybe he will star in a big movie franchise in the future.
What Peter Jackson was probably thinking while watching this on TV.
BEST OSCAR ACCEPTANCE SPEECH EVER
Evolved Cockroach. ikr
BEST OSCAR PRESENTATION BY A YOUNG BOY EVER!
Check the Joe Pesci speech. Good competitor
Elijah Wood barely aged.
Best Oscar Acceptance Speech EVER! haha :D
Jefferson Borges I was thinking the same thing! 🤣
Like they would get a giant animatronic T-Rex to present the oscar for Cliffhanger...
They would get a giant helicopter to crash in
@@thesalamilids LMAOOOOO
Man, Elijah Woods sure knows how to deliver lines at the Oscars. The adults now days mess up a lot.
He didn't even seem nervous!
That was hilarious how the guys gave their speeches all at once. They could cut the show by at least an hour if everyone did that.
That would be absolutely ridiculous and similar to the golden globes! Whats the point in making a big hoopla about the awards and who might when, and when someone does when they don't have enough time to thank those they want to thank.
I think this is another thing missing from today's Oscars -- they actually go into a little bit of detail about each movie nominated, showing how they did it. Today they just skim over everything. They show a 2 second clip and move on to the stars and speeches. Then again, seeing as how nearly everything is done with computers nowadays, it's not as exciting as seeing them create models and do it all by hand like they used to.
***** Also, the show almost always goes over its time slot anyway. The show would be like 5 hours long if they gave everything its proper due.
It's still quite complicated to create something so magical with your computer. A friend of mine studied in animation 3D, and to create something like that, you must be very skilled.
It's like how I always enjoy puppet Yoda over CGI one and I believe many others too.
1:09 the Jurassic movie score is just unmatched. That music still gives me goosebumps when it plays. It instilles real real dread when that music plays and u know raptors are around. Such a fantastic movie.
Agreed but this score plays right before the T-Rex chase scene.
"Well, thank you T Rex", my favourite part of the 1994 Oscars...
The envelope was brought by the T-Rex... What a surprise it was to hear JP got it!! lol
And Elijah's reaction... it makes me think of what T-Rex should say:
T-Rex: "Don't worry, Little human. I won't bite."
Gollum: "I will! He stole The Precious--!"
T-Rex: "QUIET!!" *crushes Gollum with his foot and addresses to Elijah* "Here's the envelope."
Imagine if a Dinosaur handed the envelope and Cliffhanger won.
Fans would be roaring like tyrannosaurus rexes.
Elijah was adorable. And he did it really well compared to some of the adults who mess up their lines nowadays.
Kim Sascha, God I wish that he was that young.
Especially good once you consider that he was a last minute choice because Macauley Culkin pulled out.
Ya fucking creep! haha
Where Elijah now , what he do ?
Hi
Elijah, as a kid, has a really brilliant confidence and presenting ability. Even I never had that as a kid!
Even you!? Holy guacemole, well then his confidence and presenting ability must be impressive!
Hell I couldn’t even do class presentations when I was his age. Damned anxiety in front a crowd.
Ah, the acceptance speech had me laughing!
When they present the letter with a GIGANTIC dinosaur head, I wonder who's gonna win???
Jurassic Park and the Nightmare before Christmas in the same nomination? My childhood right there
The oscars were cool back then!!!!
Someone get that Elijah Wood kid some auditions. I think he’s going places!
Wow! How YOUNG Elijah was! And he was very professional, too!
Best acceptance speech ever?
LMAO
I was literally going to comment the same thing. :P
Elijah's cute :)
Joe Pesci did it better
Jurassic park = greatest movie of all time
Jurassic Park= Best Franchise of all time!
Killerwhale 6011 No, the first is a good movie the others none...
@@Cosi91 I liked Lost World
3 is a meh.
@@Killerwhale-kp2fm no
@@geetadhumane5793 bruh
Even as a kid, Elijah is already having a better life than me
Jurassic Park has great visual effects.
O RLY?
CONGRATULATIONS JURASSIC PARK 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
Frodo hasn't gotten any taller since then.
Geez Elijah was so young back then… I’d say he aged really well right now. What an amazing actor.
The winning team are such trolls, giving the speech all at once hahaha!
Best acceptance speech ever.
Aw, Elijah Wood was so cute as a child actor! Look how far he come.
its so nice to see FRODO BAGGINS presents the OSCARS FOR VFX JURASSIC PARK i really like the VFX OSCAR AWARD EVERY YEAR
2:04
The T-Rex appears.
Sam: LOOK OUT, MISTER FRODO!
He looked so small then, just like in LOTR a few years later. Btw it is remarkable that Spielberg produced two of the most iconic movies of all time in the same year, Schindler’s List and Jurassic Park. Amazing.
Fuck! Frodo gave the Jurrasic Park guys their Oscars! ROFL...!!!!!
Elijah Wood my Frodo forever
Stan Winston...one of the absolute legends of special effects! John Carpenter had him help with the dog scene from The Thing! R.I.P. to you good sir!
Elijah should have gotten an Oscar for this performance
Elijah was so cute.
The harmonies at 2:50 were just perfect!
The way everyone repeatedly thanked Spielberg is great
No brainier absolutely..... Jurassic Park would win even today....it was really revolution
Damn Elijah is a boss
I have this cerimony - and some others. In Oscar history there were years that one movie was so superior in a category that it was the only one nominated. I've always found amazing that Jurassic Park wasn't the only movie nominated for visual effects that year.
He looks so little! I am glad he grown up to be such a good actor
The best Speech Ever!
1:33 I Like How The Filmmakers Are Making The Characters And Scenes From The Nightmare Before Christmas.
I actually laughed out loud when they all started thanking people at the same time 😂
Elijah seems like he was a really friendly kid
Elijah is so cute here.
Imagine Elijah Woods presenting a book report to his class.
OMG Elijah was very cute back then and now. Wow 😍
FBI OPEN UP
This was a stacked category, too.
The Special effect team look and sounded so damn proud of themselves. And rightfully so.
Awesome.
They were trailblazers. Doing something that had never been done before and changing cinema forever.
this is probably the single most deserved oscar ever given.
Fun fact: Cliffhanger actually won but the T-Rex 🦖 killed the woman who was supposed to bring the real envelope. He switched the envelope and the rest was history
Good for Rexy!
Greatest acceptance speech ever!
I still can’t believe Elijah is only 13 years old here. 13 and he’s announcing awards at the oscars!
But yes, Jurassic Park truly deserves that award. Still looks excellent today
70s to 90s had some great movies, hadn't they?
Lord of the Rings began its (admittedly very early) pre-production just four years later how come he still sounded like that in 1994? Man kids grow up so fast.
The first ever film to reach $50 million in one weekend and the highest grossing film of all time has won all of its three nominated Oscars!
Lil Frolo Baggins.
The moment you realize, Elijah Wood's "Radio Flyer" co-star, Joseph Mazzello is featured on Jurassic Park.
Frodo...
:D I love Nightmare before Christmas so much!!! Wish it won, but considering it was up against Jurassic Park it made it nearly impossible to win
+Megan Woodard Yup, Jurassic Park was originally going to be claymation like Nightmare Before Christmans, they even had the shots done.

2:01 I would complain about how that gave away the winner before receiving the envelope. But I can’t! That’s just a brilliant entry to the ceremony!
Well it's not like there was any surprise anyway ^^ Cliffhanger and Nightmare Before Christmas were pretty much there only for show, I have no doubt they knew that they would never get that award.
Elijah Wood looks exactly the same as he did here!
2:51 - For such a groundbreaking film, sad they just goofed around. Woulda been great to hear something sincere from them.
*Giant T-Rex brings out the envelope*
"And the Oscar goes to Cliffhanger!" 😂
Wrong!
(T-Rex then proceeds to eat the visual effects artists behind Cliffhanger)
Elijah Wood: “And now the winner is Jurassic Park!”
Wow! Frodo Baggins was young back then!
That was Elijah Wood!!
It certainly was!!
It’s bullshit that this is Nightmare’s only nomination as it should have been nominated for more like Original Score, Original Song (This is Halloween) and Best Picture.
I’m sure if the Best Animated Feature category was added in the 90s instead of the early 2000s, The Nightmare Before Christmas would’ve been nominated and, in my personal opinion, won the Oscar for Best Animated Feature.
Awww elijah wood is soooooooooo cute as a kid
As a kid that Dinosaur giving him the envolope was the coolest thing ever.
Mr. Frodo Kid 😭😭😭
that t rex is well made!
Mark of "The Good Son" and Frodo of "The Lord of The Rings Trilogy"
Yay 😀 I love him in flipper and lord of the rings
They deserved a standing ovation.
Oh if only Elijah Wood knew.
Elijah has always been a boss.
Oh miren! el señorito de los anillos!!
:D
Isn't anyone else gonna mention GROUNDHOG DAY (1993), with Bill Murray, did not get one nomination by the Academy Awards....? :-O
*Should've at least gotten an Original Screenplay nom.*
I feel bad for the other nominees when the dinosaur came out.
“Well I guess we’re not winning…. I could have stayed home.”
Why is Elijah’s voice higher now than it was then?
Macaulay Culkin was scheduled to present this award and say "Thanks Dad!" to the T-Rex when it gave him the envelope. Culkin's father was offended and yanked Mac from the show.
Oh, is that why Macaulay Culkin canceled? Interesting.
Boy he was so young
Son los 4 fantásticos de los Efectos visuales los mismos que ganaron por la película Terminator 2 judgment day
Veteran Actor Elijah Wood!!! 😂
You had one job Phil Tippett!

It’s my twin!!!
Wow. Awesome. And by the way I never seen a kid present in recent days
