Stories From ILM’s Former Soundstage

What does a magic trick have to do with the house implosion in Poltergeist? On which movie did CA glue (aka “superglue“) replace five-minute epoxy in modelmaking? What was George Lucas’ main directive to his team at ILM? On the historic 32TEN (formerly ILM) sound stage, special effects artists Lorne Peterson and Sean House tell Adam Savage some surprising stories behind many of our favorite films, including Poltergeist, Temple of Doom and Return of the Jedi. NOTE: This video was filmed before 32TEN Studios was closed permanently, and its contents auctioned off.
