Giant Lizard (Journey 2 The Mysterious Island)

The Giant Lizard is a villain from the 2012 film Journey 2: The Mysterious Island . It is a massive neck-frilled lizard which inhabits and uncharted island.

Journey 2: The Mysterious Island

Intrepid young explorer Sean Anderson (Josh Hutcherson) traces a mysterious distress signal to a remote island that’s not on any map, and embarks on a daring rescue mission to find his missing grandfather (Michael Caine). Directed by Brad Peyton, ‘Journey 2’ is the follow-up to 2008’s successful ‘Journey to the Center of the Earth.’

On an island full of strange and oversized creatures, the primary challenge for the team was to create a giant, photo-real lizard that aggressively chases the protagonists as they stumble upon its nest.

Led by MPC Vancouver VFX Supervisor Erik Nordby and VFX Producers Julian Levi & Liz Waterlow, the team completed a total of 42 shots in native stereo.

The director’s brief was to create a thrilling jungle chase sequence and MPC were tasked with creating a photo-real lizard that stood 12 feet tall and 30 feet long and displayed a large cape-like frill and sharp dino-like teeth.

With this in mind, the team set about pre-vising the sequence. Knowing that the creature design needed to focus on striking a balance between enlarging a pre-existing ‘real’ lizard, and adapting it by enlarging its main features and textures. The team experimented with the effects on body and head postures, natural gait and the movement of a creature more than 10 times its normal size.

To help with the development and character study work, the team brought in Dr. Stuart Sumida – an expert in animal anatomy and movement – who helped determine the basic patterns and behaviours that the team should aim to recreate. The team focused on frilled lizards and iguanas as the real-world counterparts that the team’s giant lizard would be based on. Walk cycles were later designed and then enlarged to gauge their success.

With the animation set, the environment team went about creating a dynamic foliage system that would allow the giant lizard to run through the jungle and look fully integrated into it. The team built several sizes of appropriate trees, bushes and ferns with which the lizard could push out of the way or destroy. By intelligently placing these throughout the plates, the team could place the lizard successfully into the shots seamlessly.

Finally, MPC’s FX team focussed on adding dust and debris to the lizards footprints as well as smoke which emits from the lizards nostrils after swallowing a CG flare.

Quotes 

Hank : [singing]  I see trees of green, red roses too. I see them bloom, for me and for you. And I think to myself: What a wonderful world! I see giant bees, and I could have told ya: Don't trust Alexander - he's older than Yoda. And I think to myself: What a wonderful world! The island that we stand on... Well, it's currently sinking. Sending those secret codes - what the heck were you drinking? But it's all in the past, we wiped the slate clean! We're going to find Nemo's submarine! And you'll think to yourself: What a wonderful world. Oh, yeah...

Hank : [fighting a giant lizard with a flare]  Not now, Sean. She's scared!

Sean : No, it's cold-blooded and it's attracted to heat.

[the lizard bites the flare] 

Hank : That's emasculating.

Sean : Now what?

Hank : Now there's only one thing left. The thunder cookie.

[clenching his fist at the giant lizard and punches it] 

Hank : I think I just made it worse.

[the lizard growls at them] 

Kailani : Hope she doesn't like Polynesian food.

Gabato : I hope she doesn't like food with poop in its pants!

Alexander : [On Sean's sprained ankle]  On three. One...

[Pops ankle back] 

Hank : What happened to two and three?

Sean : Yes, what happened to two and three?

Alexander : Two. Three.

Hank : What in the blue heck is that?

Gabato : That is the finest helicopter in Palau!

Sean : I'd hate to see the worst.

Kailani : Hey, I can't believe we actually made it off the island!

Sean : Yeah...

[they look at each other] 

Hank : [whispering into Sean's ear]  Pop your pecs.

Sean : [turns to face Hank, whispering back angrily]  I'm not gonna pop my pecs.

Hank : Now's the perfect time to pop your pecs. She's gonna love it, believe me. You...

Sean : I'm not gonna pop my pecs!

Hank : Do it, do it...

Sean : No, I'm not gonna pop my pecs!

Hank : She would love it, believe me!

Sean : No...

Kailani : Ahem!

[Sean turns back to her] 

Kailani : You two done yet?

Kailani : [puts her hands around Sean's neck]  Thank you. For everything.

[she kisses him] 

Hank : [to himself]  That works too.

Hank : It takes a big man to play a little guitar.

Alexander : And a bigger one to listen.

Hank : [to Sean]  I'd rather take the Titanic.

Sean : Told you it'd work.

Hank : You were right. I can't believe we made it.

Sean : It's Jules Verne, man. You gotta believe.

Hank : It looks like the liquefation has tripled overnight.

Kailani : What does that mean?

Hank : It means this island is sinking a lot faster than we thought.

Alexander : I thought you said a couple of days.

Hank : Now it looks more like a couple of hours.

Sean : A couple of hours?

Hank : We need to get to that sub now or we're all gonna be 20,000 leagues under the sea.

Hank : [to Sean]  Pop your pecs.

Sean : Ladies and gentlemen, I give you...

Hank : the mysterious island.

Hank : You know, I think it's best we get out of here. Besides, after that mating call of yours, she may have ideas about making you her husband.

Alexander : Oh, witty. Good for you, Henry.

Hank : [laughs sarcastically]  The name's Hank. It's never Henry. Just Hank.

Alexander : Ah. I see you're a man of incisive decision. Why don't you lead the way? Oh, actually, we want to live through the night. Yes. So maybe you should all follow me.

Hank : I was looking to talk to you. You know, very concerned adult to somewhat troubled youth.

Sean : Which one am I in that equation?

Kailani : [off-screen; conversing with Sean]  Happy birthday.

Hank : [to Liz]  You raised a great man.

Liz : No...

Kailani : [off-screen; conversing with Sean]  So sorry I'm late.

Liz : ....WE are raising a great man.

[last lines] 

Alexander : [presenting Sean with a birthday gift]  I wanted to give you... this.

Sean : [receiving the gift]  A book?

Alexander : Oh, it's not just a book: it's a trip I want us to go on... All of us, as a family.

[Sean unwraps his gift and gives a knowing look to Hank] 

Sean : [showing the book to everyone]  "From the Earth to the Moon".

Alexander : What do you say?

Kailani : Well, I think there's only one thing to say.

Sean : So who's up for an adventure?

[Alexander giggles] 

Liz : No, no, no!

Hank : Oh, honey, what could possibly go wrong? It's only the moon.
