Live-Action Handhelds??

Post by PickUpArtist » Fri Feb 25, 2022 12:56 am

Besides the obvious "King Kong" movies, what other live-action movies/TV shows have featured closed-fist SW handhelds? Here's what I can think of:

CAPTAIN SINBAD
JACK THE GIANT SLAYER
AMAZING COLOSSAL MAN
LOST WORLD TV SHOW - "THE PRISONER"
SPYKIDS 3
TRANSFORMERS: REVENGE OF THE FALLEN (even if it's like .05 seconds)
ATTACK OF THE 50 FT. WOMAN (remake)

Any others...?

I have a good few in my post. Mostly from dramas made in the Philippines, Thai, etc. Plus there's, 'Help, I Shrunk My Teacher!' and 'Land of the Giants'.

Cool. But where's the handheld in "Once Upon a Time in Wonderland - Heart of the Matter"? There's shrinking, but no handheld I saw.

It's more of a quick scoop-up:

I remember seeing a clip from an old sci fi erotica movie called Cinderella 2000, where shrinking is punishment for sex.

A naked woman is put on a table where a beam shrinks her to dollsize (using time lapse photography). When a doctor picks her up, its clearly a toy. But, there's a quick shot of the newly shrunken woman in his hand saying "don't you drop me."

Cinderella 2000, Cheap effects for the time, she was upset that the other lady dropped her before handing her to the guy. The line was "That horny bitch dropped me!" I have the clip but the file is too big, so here's a screen shot.

Huh, so that is where it was from. I just remember watch a clip of the shrinking process on YouTube nearly 10 years ago.
