    I really enjoy pieces like this that showcase the REAL talents of a movie. I mean, yes, an actor makes and sells a movie, but it's everyone behind the scenes that make movies what they are. Thumbs up to Gary and everyone else who stands behind the camera.

    This was really interesting and I have a great respect for what foley artists do, but I've seen so many parodies of this exact type of "The Art of Foley" piece that it's almost hard to take seriously.

    This is just amazing ! The movie industry is full of little artists who create the bigger picture and its really obvious this is not just a guy throwing things around to make noise like I used to think ! This is someone in love with what he is doing and he has a deep view of what he is doing and why he is doing it ! Thanks for making me appreciate Foley art more

    Awesome! Foley, one of the many important parts that go into making fine cinema.
