Facts

1. The video's creator decided to make a commentary for the video through the subtitles, an idea they stole from eggyolk2002 and his Infinity War video [Document(page_content='00:00:00.16: Since this video\'s gotten a lot of attention recently, I decided to do a commentary for it through the subtitles\n00:00:03.54: (idea totally stolen from eggyolk2002 and his Infinity War video, which you should go watch if you haven\'t)').
2. All dialogue before the first fight scene was written before the creator saw Infinity War [Document(page_content='00:00:07.28: All of the dialogue before the first fight scene was actually written before I saw Infinity War\n00:00:10.10: That\'s why Thor still has an eyepatch and Nakia shows up in the background').
3. The creator used a transparent stud piece to animate a little Iron Man hologram for the video [Document(page_content='00:00:12.50: This little Iron Man hologram thing is all animated in camera. I just used one of those transparent stud pieces w/ a clip on the back to make it look like it\'s being projected in front of him').
4. The creator bought a $20 Jurassic World set just for a new Chris Pratt head [Document(page_content='00:00:16.50: I bought a $20 Jurassic World set just for that new Chris Pratt head').
5. The creator tried to make their voice sound gravelly for Dr. Strange but it came out sounding more like someone who's been smoking for 30 years [Document(page_content='00:00:21.92: Tried to make my voice sound gravelly for Dr. Strange but it came out sounding more like someone who\'s been smoking for 30 years').
6. The creator added a little dust effect last minute, likely from actionmovieFX.com [Document(page_content='00:00:42.52: I added that little dust effect last minute. I think it\'s from actionmovieFX.com or something').
7. The creator made Thanos a little too evil in the video, not realizing he was a more complex character in the movie [Document(page_content='00:00:47.12: Looking back, I made Thanos a little too evil in this video. I hadn\'t seen the movie yet so I didn\'t realize he was a more complex character and not just a generic bad guy who wanted to "kill all humans cuz they\'re dumb and need a ruler" *cough* steppenwolf *cough*').
8. The creator couldn't laugh convincingly enough for Drax, so they scrapped the idea of him laughing hysterically after Star-Lord made fun of Thanos [Document(page_content='00:00:57.12: I originally had Drax laugh hysterically after Star-Lord made fun of Thanos but I couldn\'t laugh convincingly enough so I scrapped it').
9. Thanos' feet aren't visible in many shots because the creator switched out studs underneath his feet with flat plates to allow a wider range of movement [Document(page_content='00:01:05.70: You\'ll notice you can\'t see Thanos\' feet in a lot of shots. That\'s because he\'s not actually standing on studs, but flat plates I switched out underneath his feet to allow a wider range of movement. Otherwise he would just lift/lower his arm and twist his fists around all the time.').
10. The creator used Final Cut Pro for editing, which crashed multiple times during the process [Document(page_content='00:02:10.44: Final Cut Pro crashed like 5 times while I was editing all these camera moves. The finished sequence came out quite nice though').
