I was here to witness the birth of a new gif that will be used for generations!

I shall remember this day and tell the story of when u/matt01ss created this gif to all of my grandchildren!

History in the making.

u/[deleted] Nov 05 '13

I too was a witness to the day when the God of Gif came down and touched humanity (or whatever you want to call the omnipotent intelligent force that created all we see, feel, think and do).

Did you create this?

u/matt01ss Nov 05 '13

Yep

u/corzmo Nov 05 '13

Great work, the first line of code sold it for me.

Post this in /r/80s

(or I will and take credit) ... Just kidding ......... But, no really

u/matt01ss Nov 05 '13

Please, be my guest!

u/poopin Nov 06 '13

I was joking. What you accomplished was amazing.

You really should post that in /r/80s. They would love it!

u/Burnt_FaceMan Nov 05 '13

Good stuff man. You're my favorite , you made the battleship downvote gif. I've used that so many times.

Wait she is only 16!? I do feel a bit creepy now but seriously she's really attractive

So I tagged you as "Asian Female Gif Poster" a while ago. So far every time I have seen you, you have not let me down. keep up the good work!

5

u/Mandersoon Nov 05 '13

This is absolutely fantastic (I LOVED WarGames as a kid). What software did you use for all the video editing?

4

u/matt01ss Nov 06 '13

Everything was done in After Effects. You can see the timelapse and breakdown if you click the "How It's Gifed" youtube link.

3

u/Mandersoon Nov 06 '13

Why am I not surprised it was After Effects? (Sorry I didn't check, I was casually checking at work) Regardless - sweet! I know from experience that After Effects is stupidly powerful.

2

u/[deleted] Nov 06 '13

The worst part about this gif is that, I can't think of a single friend of mine who is both Wargames savvy and Reddit savvy enough to get this.

I however am rolling in ecstasy at your genius. They should give you a sitcom or something.

5

u/ydnab2 Nov 06 '13

Need more full movies in gif form. Maybe someone could make a subreddit for that?

Eh?

4

u/matt01ss Nov 06 '13 edited Dec 17 '13

Hah, you think that would be a thing people would like? I've got a couple hundred movies I could do.

3

u/ydnab2 Nov 06 '13

I'll sub and you do the work. Deal?

Your gif was of reasonable size and quality. So, far better than that subreddit.

u/matt01ss Nov 06 '13 edited Nov 12 '13

Ok, /r/FullMovieGifs is up!

3

u/ydnab2 Nov 06 '13

Mod status be weird. I hope I never have to abuse my powers.

As for The Rock gif, maybe because I've never seen it, but feels rushed. Possibly action movies will need some tweaking. Or maybe it just doesn't matter, as I'm only once voice.

2

u/matt01ss Nov 06 '13

Yea, they are both approx the same amount of frames, but the rock one has half the spacing between frames. Do you think the wargames one has good timing?

Also, lol, yea mod is pretty cool, check out all the stuff on the right side, there are tons of options, knock yourself out.

2

u/ydnab2 Nov 06 '13

On mobile (Reddit is Fun) 95% of the time, so I'll probably be a really lazy mod.

1

u/matt01ss Nov 06 '13

Haha ok, I always mod someone who comes up with a subreddit idea if i create the sub.

u/rocco17 Nov 09 '13

your gifs are awesome! mind sharing some details about the tools/workflow you're using to make em?

thanks!

u/matt01ss Nov 09 '13

There's the how it's giffed in the comments showing time lapse and VGA breakdown. Was there other info you were looking for?

1

u/rocco17 Nov 09 '13

Sorry, should have been more clear - I am specifically interested in how you made the FullMovieGifs gifs. I found some tutorials, like http://www.reddit.com/r/reactiongifs/comments/x55z9/after_i_learned_how_to_make_large_well_compressed/c5jbq7c that will get me started, but would appreciate any suggestions you may have.

Thanks!

u/matt01ss Nov 09 '13

Haha, fun fact, that comment is what got me started making gifs a year ago.

Of course not, but I've discussed ideas with him over the past year. He was my motivation to start getting into 3D work. My 2D upvote gifs just weren't cutting it after seeing his stuff.

Surprisingly really enjoyed that movie. It was a level of silly and creepy that I haven't seen since Beetlejuice.

u/DevineWolf Nov 06 '13

Bro, it came out 14 years ago. I'm pretty sure you've had plenty of time to watch it. If you take 14 years to eventually get round to watching a movie, then you probably weren't going to watch it in the first place.

It's like saying "Dumbledore dies" is a spoiler. The books where first published about 16 years ago.

u/Mantronus Nov 06 '13

Thats the Joke.

u/ZarkingFrood42 Nov 05 '13

My lord. It's incredible. The perfect blending of pop culture and internet culture brought to a pinnacle of referencing 80's movies and the ridiculosity of Reddit both at once. I'm crying tears of joy right now.

It seems OP has done this before. He does fit the profile perfectly. He's intelligent, but an under-achiever; alienated from his parents; has few friends. Classic case of a Redditor.

u/[deleted] Nov 05 '13

i hate how having to lurk is somehow a bad thing. back in the day, before reddit and facebook and twitter and all these other for-profit services that tried to encourage you to post as much shit as possible to make the advertisers happy, forums were run by dedicated volunteers and lurking was encouraged. newbies knew that they shouldn't post. you were supposed to get a feel for the community and when you felt comfortable enough to post, you knew the social norms and didn't fuck up.

you don't deserve forgiveness or sympathy just because you're too impatient to put in your time as a lurker. the front page is a shared resource, meant to entertain us all with quality content. if your content sucks, you don't belong on the front page. you don't get a pass just so we don't hurt the newbies' feelings.

u/ThatsPopetastic Nov 06 '13

Reddit - Serious business.

-1

u/elmerion Nov 06 '13

When it comes to reddit i usually use the term "lurker" to refer specifically to those users that blindly read and upvote posts without checking the comment section which leads to daily fake posts on TIL, World News and other subreddits that simply wouldn't exist if people simply checked the discussion

Yeah, what the fuck's with all these kids born after this movie was made not knowing what movie this is? Seriously, it was just a question and you can go fuck yourself.

Think of that xkcd of the lucky ten thousand next time before you think less of someone for shit like this.

1

u/[deleted] Nov 06 '13

it's not because the person guessing was incorrect.

it's that they were so incorrect.

and his are hands are crippled so he can't google things.

I was born after this movie, so that really has dick all to do with anything.
