007

the Graduate

If I were to redo this today, it would be Harry's leg, with Hoffman looking on. That's all I'm saying.

the Shining

Sure, it's a two-position lip-sync, but it ALMOST works, doesn't it?



Doesn't it? Almost? COME ON!

Mission Impossible 2

A long time after this I animated a head for MI:3, where I believe I made up for this fairly poor caricature of Mr. Cruise by doing a fairly serviceable one.

A long time after this. This one, not so much.

Blair Witch

Forget About it, Harry.

Fast Times at Ridgemont High

Ah yes.
Here's a popular one:



With Harry and I, anyway.

This caused a collective groan from horny geekdom, as the much-beloved scene became forever tainted by Harry's teats.

Harry was not entirely satisfied with my version however, causing him to re-time the animation into this:



Not a BIG difference perhaps, but one that really underlines how far off I was when I animated this masthead. After all, at this point in time I did practically zero research. And you'd think this particular scene would be seared into my mind strongly enough that I could do it justice, but no. It is way WAY off.

Off all the mastheads that I would like to take another shot at, THIS one might be the one that I actually DO bother to redo. One day. Perhaps. If for no other reason than it gives me an excuse to not only buy the Fast Times DVD, but also to claim it as a business expense.
