:48:03
so we chartered flights in
for the crew, cast and equipment.

:48:09
And we hired locals to help us out
in the different departments.

:48:15
But people actually had to machete a path
up to this location

:48:19
so that the art department
could mount this satellite station.

:48:23
Then we had to machete
another path down to a dirt road,

:48:27
then cut to a river so we could bring the cast
and crew up in four-wheel drive vehicles.

:48:33
All to get this wonderful
isolated top of the island.

:48:40
Yeah.
:48:49
Here we go. And the chase begins.
:48:54
Hans Zimmer helping us out yet again.
:49:00
Good stunt coming up here, I think.
:49:02
We cut from the actors to the stuntmen,
:49:04
and we have a wire-cam actually in that sequence
:49:08
where the camera moves with the actors
through the jungle.

:49:13
Stuntmen obviously fall into this pool
and the actors pop up.

:49:24
Classic act two chase sequence,
:49:26
I think with a twist.
:49:28
Now here is a bit of kit
that was invented for the film.

:49:34
This is a hoversled.
:49:37
We hoped it wouldn't look too much like Star Wars
and yet would remind people of other films

:49:43
that use these same kind of toys.
:49:48
This is a funny sequence.
This wasps' nest was practical

:49:55
and we tried to time it
so it would drop into Deobia's hand,

:49:59
as you're about to see,
