I manufacture the material for those suits!
Edit: I can tell that they're the real thing too. I'm surprised they wouldn't just use a prop. These things are $1600 each!
That's very cool. And I think the studios rent this kind of stuff
Shit, really? They went all in for the movie, huh... it's a great movie BTW.

It's the highest grade for chemical protection!
no. NO. I LEFT THAT MINDVIRUS BEHIND IN 2021 YOU CAN'T DO THIS TO ME
Does not protect against cognitohazards
Even things like H2SO3 and NaOH?
There's a list on the website!
Sulphuric acid and sodium hydroxide for anyone wondering.
It's acually sulfurous acid, much more corrosive than sulphuric acid (H2SO4).
It didn't have too big of a budget either (47 million). We haven't had a film like it in a while :(
That is true... just goes to show you, an idea is all it takes, money has verry little to do with it.
Solaris, a perfect example. It was like... what... 4 million? Clooney accepted the role just for the heck of it (as many Hollywood stars do, if the script is bad-ass enough, hell, I'll do it for free). Think of Nicole Kidman and Dogville.
Wow... just WOW... I still get shivers from Dogville.
What film?
Arrival (2016)
Cheers
Oh you're in for a fucking TREAT! It's slow going but really pays off. :D
Sweet. I'll watch it in the next day or two
