Have you ever wondered what goes into making a complex film like Divergent? Well, wonder no more-- we’ve done all the research for you! We will be learning about the intense, Dauntless bootcamp the entire cast had to complete, the iconic seven-story jump - just how many takes did she do? We'll also be learning about the stunning visual effects that were meticulously crafted to maintain believabiltiy.
Part of what made Divergent such a fun film to shoot, was the natural chemistry between the cast. They had such much of it, in fact, that Theo James pulls a prank on Shailene Woodley during the big ferris wheel scene. How did they find Theo to play Four, anyway?
Did you know the author, Veronica Roth, was very involved in making the film? So involved, she might’ve actually been in front of the camera a few times. If you missed her, don't worry, we’ll fill you in.
The Divergent world is full of incredible fight scenes, special effects, and elaborate set pieces you wouldn’t believe are actually set pieces- yes we’re talking about the pit! We’re also going to go into how much the city of Chicago shaped the visuals and special effects as well as the inevitable battle scars received by Zoe Kravitz and Shailene Woodley! And did we mention the incredible zipline that travels through all of downtown Chicago? After this video, you'll be an expert on how an action-packed film like Divergent is brought to life.

Absolutely loved these movies. Anyone else?
Same!
I loved the books but hated the movies
@@DelfyDaun same. Personally, the first movie was good, the second movie was ok, and by the third I was about ready to beat someone with the Allegiant book😂
Me
Same
The actors really did the characters SO MUCH Justice
❓
I feel this franchise is criminally underrated and as such gets less praise than it deserves. Though it may not have been top tier but it was still enjoyable nonetheless.
The first one was amazing!! Literally loved it so much. The soundtrack and directing and everything was aaaa😍😍 the next two were a little icky bc of the new director that came along
@@cheechee6473 I agree, the first was undoubtedly the best, from the second onwards there is a huge drop in overall quality. I still hope that one day they make the last film in the series...
Brother. It sucked. Let’s be honest with ourselves. You can say you enjoyed it, but the book series and movies literally killed the genre that hunger games popularized.
The reason why it is so disliked is because it lacks character development. The writer of this story created a really cool world with loads of external struggles the characters have to go through, but there are hardly any internal struggles. A strong female lead is only good if she is relatable through her internal struggles and personal misbeliefs that she then overcomes.
The divergent series deserve a bigger audience. I loved the series and the books. I really wish Allegient was filmed
Allegiant is the 3rd movie. They didn’t film the 4th because they wanted to turn it into a tv series unfortunately.
@@roreofficial yea i confused the names
@@roreofficial so they already make the tv series or not ?
the series deserved so much more, missing it so much
I adore divergent, but I’ll be honest… the first movie was so much better than the second or the third, just my opinion. I adore every movie though, they’ll all so well written and the actors do the characters so much Justice!
First was the best one second was good not as good and the third was ok wish there was more stuff with four and tris but it needed a last movie to really end it n complete it.
I love the books, but the movie really satisfied my imagination. Thank you for this masterpiece, it’ll never be the same without Shai and Theo
I’m such a Divergent fan it’s crazy I watched all 3 movies this morning 😂 well watching someone reacting to the movies but I’m obsessed I love it they played the roles so well I wish I was her 😂
I love these movies! I was extremely lost by the 3rd movie and was sad to see the 4th never made it. Because of that imma read the book
I totally forgot what happens in the book tbh but i just remembered after finishing the books i said to myself i will never reread them again because it was so gutwrenching at the end. I cried so much LOl
The final book is so deppresing.The movies are so much better
@@mermaidserenity in the books the heroine(tris) dies at the end and four(the hero) he marries someone else i think tris friend,after she died
@Ethan Barr becoz she wanted to know what happened at the end. Also this is the behind the scenes forthe final movie so ofc theres going to be spoilers.but even then i didnt comment on the clip but replied to a comment,so if you dont want to be spoiled for the movie or book dont go into the replies of comments of the last movie.i mean i am currently reading a book and after being spoiled for books multiple times now i avoid youtube comments
@Muimfeè the books are great i am on the first book right now but i always recieve accidental spoilers and i spoiled and read the entire ending.do read the books but in the end yes four does end up with kristina(but not in the original trilogy) basically a few years after the book series ended the author wrote another story telling what happened after and in that she said four and kristina end up together.so if you only read the original books at the end like last chapter of last book tris dies and the end.
Currently on a divergent binge…about to watch allegiant in a few moments! Love the movies especially Four!!!
I just watched the series with my family, introducing my cousins to them for the very first time, and EVERY TIME a movie ended everyone clapped 😂😂😂 had to applaud the masterpiece!!!
My top 4 fave films include Maze Runner trilogies, Hunger Games trilogies, Divergent and Fault in our Stars
absolutely love this series, love the books. don’t much care for the movies but i love the actors and all the work that was put into making the movies tho
I like this film. I especially like the sound of the guns. I also really like the chemistry between the two main actors. We are looking forward to seeing the next 2 😊
I'm not scared of falling from great heights either. It's just that sudden stop at the end that always hurts. The fall itself is great.
the first movie is amazing (insurgent was ok and the last one was just….horrible) but they did it so well and the actors did an amazing job of getting into character. the bts of this is so interesting. I think the movies deserve a bigger fanbase. and the books because all of those were exceptional
What an enormous job by ALL OF THEM !!
Need more of divergent series with the same cast...
These r up there with hunger games for me. Loved them
Am I the only person whose going to point out how shailene woodley and miles teller starred together in "the spectacular now", she also started with ansel elgort in "the fault in our stars" AND starred with Zoe Kravitz in "big little lies"?!!! I love them all. I honestly loved this series more than the twilight saga and hunger games. The only other movie I was hoping for more of was "Cirque du Freak: the vampires assistant". She wasn't in that, but I loved the books and actually loved the only movie that came out for it.
The romantic tension is soo good it gave me butterflies 👀
Such a good movie
I love these movies sooo much.
Yes yes yes to Zipline and all of it! Love the concept of conquering fears.
The divergent series is my favorite movie series of all time
I really wished to see Four and Tris having a small family in the movie, wished to see having children in the film. Four and Tris always. They have more history behind each other than any other character that’s on the screen. They were meant to be together ❤.
Misss them so muchhh💕💕💕Sheo💕💕
I LOVE DIVERGENT
Omg, I didn't know they actually did the jump!!
I miss you, Theo!! Give us some updates of you as your fans! We've been waiting you to make social media account 🥺♥️
I miss them togetherr
Loved thiss💗 Had to buy the 2 other movies because it wasn’t available anywhere
This is my favorite movie
Love these movies ❤
Wow, I’m surprised the green screen didn’t rip when she jumped.
Best channel ever
Amazing
I Soo loved this movie...n am still waiting for the second one..
_i need shai and theo in one movie together again_
loveeeeee tris n tobias 💗
Amazing video 👌
Amazing !Loved😍👌🏼 very nice
Is still can’t get over the fact that Theo pulled her pants down ON SET
Theo James so perfect as Four
My favourite movie 🤍 I will always love this movie 🙈
It's interesting to consider which faction I might have chosen. I think I would have taken Dauntless, as they seemed much more down to earth than the others. I want to be free, and brave!
I’m so glad the 4th movie got cancelled, I’m going to make myself believe that the movie ending is the real one and Four and Tris lived long happy lives with children.
You are amazing
Kesinlikle harika bir film 👏
I love divergent. I like how the acters really worked hard.
uma pena não terem concluído a série de filmes
Nice to see the trilogy on HBO Max, I liked all 3 movies
The movies were great but im a bit confused about the ferris wheel scene, did he mean to do that or was it an accident?
They should make another one
Mi pareja favorita y me obsesione con la saga
lets take a moment to appreciate the quality of TheThings's videos
I Like Divergent 👍👍
...he pulled her pants down? What??😂
Like that’s assault
Need a fourth book. Great Movie.
Bring back divergent!!!
I didn't know..that I was this twice.. 😂 I was watching this when I'm in high school..and already forgot the whole story..and then..I didn't realize that I was watching this 3 days ago..like... there's 3 chapter of this movie 😂😂..when I was in high school..I watched the allegiant one 🤣🤣🤣..lmao
Are they gonna do divergent 4? Someone tell me please
The biggest mistake they made was hiring the new director for Insurgent and Allegiant 💀 if Neil Berger stayed it wouldn’t have gone down the toilet smhh
Fr
Not just love,i like the movie😘😘😘👈
Theo James is ❤
I love so much two first films, but I never saw third one
Still waiting for the next part , part 4 I guess
1:47 sorry WHAT??? Thats se xual hara ssment
Right??? I was scrolling through the comments looking for someone to say this and literally no one 🤨 like whatt
What happend?
we need that last movie still though... left at a clliffhanger
en iyi filmlerden net
👌👍
It’s crazy how a computer make a realistic movie
yeag its crazy
Considering the fact, they were taught military style, the 'punch' that Tris was practicing is terrible and can easily be caught. Plus the peek a boo style of fighting is equally bad, if not worse. They're covering their head sure, but they're leaving their torso exposed and therefore can be knocked down or winded if a kick landed on them. A few broken ribs would be the cherry on top. The reason the boxing does that is because they can't kick. I like how they planned everything, like the workout beforehand, progress of their fighting etc. I just wished they actually got the fighting part accurate, or at least practical.
Yo!
It is verti good film,isn't it 😊
Wiem
I have the dog from the annual ceremony
*divergent, insurgent, allegiant*
I am glad they did not finish this movie She did not die She still is alive
💙✨
Ist du noch da ???
Ich empfinde gerade gemixte Gefühle wegen dem Film
Ich hab enormen die Klausur drücke mit dir daumen
Ich würde gerne mal wissen was für Filme du auszusuchen würdest für unsere Filmabend
Where can I watch all the three movies ?
netflix
@@maizeira They are not available on Netflix
Hbo max
Hbo max =>
Just started yesterday But I can’t find insurgent anywhere
HBO Max has the trilogy
I wondering if Theo meant to pull Shae's pants or if it was a complte accident. Also, if he meant to, I hope she was ok with it.
They can still make the 4th one🙈
Es sa acha to army m bharti ho jati .u r so many Lover list .
I like how they were divergent in hiring an attractive actress for this series.
He pulled down her pants in front of everyone!! Omg. Not okay.
Am a Left Below Knee Amputee and have done a 17 (~284ft) storey charity abseil... Would do the zip line across Chicago without hesitation.
Hast du mal den Film geschaut … Den zweiten und dritten werde ich wohl nie schauen aber was denkst du über diesen
Wollen wir es auf englsich schauen da gibt es nicht in Netflix
Auf unserer Website
I have always had an issue that Shailene did not fit the stature or look of Triss well at all. She was meant to be short and petite, and Shailene is actually on the taller side for a woman at 5'8". Also cannot believe Theo pants'd her - and she looks at him like... "yeah... thanks for that" lol
#2 They had to go to boot camp? Well, I guess that makes sense because Dauntless is like the military, but putting actors in boot camp? Jesus, that's crazy.
I’m addicted to the first one. At this point I’m thinking it might be a mental illness actually.
Unfortunately they didn’t finish all the movies 😢
The ending of the the film Alligient did not match that of the book.
I want to visit the abnegation houses so bad!!
Remember God loves you😊♥️! John 3:16 For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son that whosoever believeth in him should not perish but have everlasting life. Please repent, change your life around and live for Him🙏. He is coming back soon🎊🤗.........
Too bad the fourth book "Four" wasn't filmed. You cant see the "cliff hanger" promising another film when David (Jeff Daniels) suddenly appears at the end of Allegiant.
Bart 2
7:58 anything with theo 🥵
They really ticked me off in not filming the final movie. It’s an unfinished story.
Unpopular opinion-the movies were great but the books were literally AMAZING🫶
Like Disney’s descendants
