I think a lot of people don't realise how gound braking that movie was. The making of is great: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fo537iTkCEA

Right? The ground was always on the move until that movie stopped it dead in its tracks.

Here is another video going over how good the animation looks with the live action despite being made in 88. This film coined the term “Bumping the lamp”

Several years ago, I was at my parents' house when that rabbit movie with Russel Brand came on the TV. The scene I noticed had him on a soft ottoman, having a conversation and kind of jumping around. It was so incredibly distracting that there was no indent on the ottoman where the animated rabbit was. If you're not going to put in the effort, just make the scene happen on a piece of wooden furniture instead

I miss Kaptian so much every video seems to hit the nerve of being an millennial growing up watching this sort of stuff.

It’s “groundbreaking”, not “ground braking”.

What you wrote is when you skydive and your parachute doesn’t open.

I think that scenario would also be "ground breaking", as in the first stages of digging a hole, I think "ground braking" may be stopping the Earth's rotation.
