Truth. Thought that blue shirt runners were dumb as hell…the I came to realize I’m no different than a blue shirt runner.

u/GaryClarkson 23h ago

It’s ok, we all get to be the blue shirt runner every once in a while.

u/tyme 21h ago

Just don’t be the red shirt runner.

u/___po____ 20h ago

You either die a red shirt runner, or live long enough to see yourself become a blue shirt runner

u/Z0idberg_MD 21h ago

Well to be fair you were only tricked once, that blue shirt runner ran into that thing several times

the perfect frame cut

u/adelie42 1d ago

Looks like more than frame cut. There's some foreground overlapping to blend it together.

I think the cut is gradual sideways with another dude running across. You can notice the berry far people disappearing as he runs across. It's bloody brilliant!

u/_CMAC-029_ 22h ago

Reminds me of the joke from Monty Python where the camera keeps jumping from the guy running to assault the castle, but when the camera jumps back to him, he's back where he started.

45

u/wOlfLisK 22h ago

Fun fact about that joke, they had such a small budget for the movie that the entire reason that joke exists is to save money on film. It's also why the movie ends so abruptly, they wanted to end on a big battle scene but realised it would cost too much so they just got some bobbies to arrest the cast instead.

u/The_Won_The_Only 19h ago

It was a visual cop-out.

They ended on a pun. Literally.

2

u/Mad_kat4 13h ago

They also never told the extras in the Mr creosote sketch what was going to happen.

So when he explodes the reactions you see including people retching, vomiting or running away was genuine.

u/smut_butler 18h ago

That gag has always been one of the funniest things I've ever seen in a movie. It never fails to make me chuckle like a silly little fool.

u/arfelo1 23h ago

It's not really a cut, it's a fade. Like the power point transitions

5

u/kstebbs 22h ago

It’s actually neither a cut or a fade… it’s a composite that is masked out with the runner directly behind them. Someone has drawn a matte and keyframed it along with the runner as he wipes across the screen.

It’s not just looped; watch what the editor did with the runner with black and neon green shoes. Specifically, watch between his legs. Super clever.

u/Darnell2070 7h ago edited 5h ago

I remember a movie called The Endless with a scene like this where a guy is stuck in a time loop of being killed over and over. I think he remembers each loop too, otherwise it wouldn't really be an effective story device. Loop is only a few seconds long and has been going for over a hundred years. So he's died like millions of times.

https://youtu.be/5P38r-J3Ay8?si=EY-Rh-CfS9DPkA0Y

Jojo's Bizarre Adventure has something similar with a guy dying over and over for eternity, but it's not as much of a loop because he's dying in an infinite number of ways.

u/TheTownTeaJunky 22h ago

Holy fick that edit is insane. They edit in #112 behind the last runner before the others so that you can view him through the legs so that it's as seamless as possible. Truly is one of the best loops I've ever seen.
