Spidy II Doc Ock Question

[DrStranglove]

How much of the close up tenticals were puppets and what was CGI? Are there any good pics of the puppets if there were any used?

Just take a look at the Behind the scenes on the DVD they show how most of the Doc Ock scenes were done.

David's right the DVD pretty much covers everything, really neat stuff to check out on Doc Ock's gear, for the most part if the shot required close ups and the tentacles weren't doing much they were done practically using mechanical puppets and for anything requiring fast movements and tons of angles they got away with it using CGI most of the time.

Small behind the scene pic.
Looks like they had two mechanical ones.

I saw one of the tentacles at the midnight premiere at the Cinerama dome, but I didn't have a camera with me because I didn't know there would be props there. I believe a boardmember had access to the originals and even made some castings... anybody remember who? I've been wanting a replica of one of those tentacles for years.
