1. This is so much better than CGI. Impressive!

2. "A.I." was one of the most underrated masterpieces that I know of. I've never been able to understand that. Maybe it was too different an idea. Maybe it made people too uncomfortable. I don't know. But it was utterly amazing and beautiful, and the Stan Winston Shop gave so much to make it so. "A.I." haunts me. Especially those poor broken-down androids. They are unforgettable. Thank you guys and the late, great Mr. Winston for all of the superlative magic!

3. Whether something is CGI has nothing to do with how artistic and creative it is.

4. AI needs some More Love!

5. The movements look a lot like stop motion. So great to see this behind the scenes look. Thank you.

6. I love watching these.

7. one of my favorite movies of all time….

8. i really like A.I

9. god, AI is in my top 5 favorite movies of all time. I never imagined I can get even more behind the scenes footage from it. Thank you!

10. People I know generally hate it for the ending that feels like it was shoved onto the script by Spielberg in case people didn't get the Pinocchio parallel. They thought it just ended too happy and too fairytale for a movie that had an overall serious tone to it. I get where they're coming from, but my feelings are that even though it ended on an overly sappy note, it was transparent. His mom was gonna die again that night, and he was gonna spend his eternity alone. Not quite happy.

11. Seeing the ignorant sling mud at CGI as an art form pisses me off a bit more than an exec making the decision to replace a beautiful practical effect with CGI.

12. But I thought this movie was made waaaaaaay before jp3?

13. Both came out in 2001. – David

14. I thought the puppet looked more like Christopher Walken…

15. I totally agree with you.

16. What a wonderful video. Stuff like this makes me so inspired to go create my next project.

17. Very cool.

18. Fantastic puppetry work for a very underrated film.
    Always suspected it made humans uncomfortable to see robots like anything but dumb subservient machines. I guess people prefer Terminators.

19. I think what killed the movie for a lot of people was the ending (Kubrick trying too hard to be Spielberg).

20. I think you've got it backwards?

21. Nope. Kubrick wrote the ending. You can even look it up to prove it.

22. people who had 'virtual fish' went into a tailspin if their computer fish got sick and would call the gaming company in a panic, the fish were just on their screen and people had names on them etc- I think we would hold robots in a little more affection than is portrayed today we tend to personify things closest to us

23. flawless…xx

24. Pteranodon in the background of the workshop

25. i dont like the term puppeteer. I prefer the words "indirect actors". Its takes acting skill to pull off these things.

26. Modern movies just don't come close to the quality of these props.

27. love this movie

28. ach i love it

29. You have videos of the mecha nanny of the movie Artificial Intelligence?

30. astounding!
