The funny thing is that they obviously didn't have blue tint on the day, so this picture is probably exactly what it looked like while they were doing it.
No music, no sound effects, no graphics. Behind the scenes footage is so awkward it's amazing any movie gets made, and I love it.
I have a problem when watching a show or movie, and I'm a little bit stoned, that I start thinking about how it was filmed, the camera angles, and the actors in the scene. It really takes me out of the moment
This is basically what I do all the time.
I watch a lot of Corridor Crew videos with my kids and now they just call out bad CGI all the time and they complain everytime they see AI slop out in the city. I'm glad they have critical eyes now, but I feel like I ruined the joy of simply enjoying movies for them.
Pretty sure the movie studios did that.
I'm like that when I'm not stoned, which is probably why as a 50 year old man I mostly watch romcoms and animation. With romcoms the set and lighting is straight forward so it doesn't distract me, unless they are outside in the "tropics" then all the wrong plants and animals bother me.
There's a scene towards the end of Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring at the River Anduin where they're fighting off the orc/ Urakhai raiding party. As the camera jumps from one bit of action to the next, there's a short (maybe 2 second) shot where an orc gets his face bashed into a rock.
I just imagine the orc actor, halfway hunched over the rock, with another actor holding the back of his head, waiting for Peter Jackson to yell "action!" Just to smack his head against a rock. And for them to look over the footage, and say "no, I don't really like the angle we got here. And your facial expression isn't really what I'm going for. Alright everyone, let's run "face into rock" one more time and take lunch"
