Just came back from seeing it. Attack, of course..CGI I saw nothing in there that even suggested sex...no idea how the fuck anyone would think that. I give the flick a solid 7/10 you only said Rape once...is there a problem? |

Ask and Arf shall deliver... Filming bear from Revenant ETA 2 clip You thought that the bear in The Revenant was real, didn’t you? Believe it or not, the big grizzly was a feat of CGI, and there was actually a man (not unlike Planet of the Apes‘ and Lord of the Rings‘ Andy Serkis) in a blue suit behaving like a bear, walking like a bear, and yes, attacking like a bear.
Canadian Glenn Ennis, 51, has been a stuntman and actor for about 15 years. He’s worked on films like Watchmen, and he stunt-doubled as Jason in Freddy vs. Jason, appearing in the climactic scene of the movie completely on fire. Now he can add The Revenant to his body of work. (Another stuntman, Tim Sitarz, also had some time as the bear.) The Vancouverite is currently on-set for Braven in Newfoundland, appearing in a role as well as acting as stunt double for Jason Mamoa (Game of Thrones). The 6’4 1/2”, 250-lb. Ennis (whose wife is Lynn Colliar, a Global News B.C. anchor) spoke with Global News about his surreal, gruelling experience filming The Revenant as the bear. ETA: stuntman in blue suit/ CGI overlay. Article is interview with stuntman. |

It was a well trained bear. In fact, "Dewey" (the bear's name), had been in a few other films...and even wrestled Will Ferrell in the film Semi Pro. Dewey is/was a stage name for a bear named Rocky. He killed a trainer during filming of an ad in about 2008, and hasn't been allowed to "act" since. click |

Dewey is/was a stage name for a bear named Rocky. He killed a trainer during filming of an ad in about 2008, and hasn't been allowed to "act" since. You're wrong, not everything is on Wikipedia. Due to his aggressive nature, Dewey was brought out of retirement just for this film. I know a guy who worked on the film, and it took a lot of convincing just to get Leonardo DiCaprio on set with the bear....and absolutely refused to film any up close scenes with the animal. Leo's original stunt double was allegedly fired from the film over comments he made about DiCaprio...supposedly called him a bigger (female anatomy part) than Will Ferrell..."at least Ferrell got in the damn ring with the bear before the double took over". |

I thought it was kind of dumb that the "scout" managed to get between mama and her cubs.
There were a few other WTF? moments like when he fired muzzle loaders more than once w/o reloading, how did he get a way from the French party and when did he ditch Paquaw? |
|
That was awful. That was incredibly depressing. The video was fine. But, the comments. Oh, my head hurts. |
