'Mars Needs Moms' was motion capture, where you walk in

‘Mars Needs Moms’ was motion capture, where you walk into a space that’s essentially a black box with cameras everywhere. It was so technical. You have these mandibles with cameras on your face and a helmet, and you have to hit certain marks. You couldn’t shoot this stuff without the green-screen aspect.
Dan Fogler
If chronic bashing of the head could destroy a boxer’s brain, couldn’t it also destroy a football player’s brain? Surely someone in the history of football had thought to look for dementia pugilistica. Unlike boxers, football players wear helmets, but a helmet can’t fully protect the head from damaging impact.

In Formula 1, the neck is really important. There’s a lot of force that’s going to your head. We also have a helmet and it’s not that light. When it’s all about g-force, all of that extra weight in the helmet compounds and puts more and more pressure.
Valtteri Bottas
I literally started skating handrails when I was seven years old, with no helmet on, so I was just bred into this type of skating where you have to be kind of fearless and just go for it.

Part of my problem is that I cannot dispel the myths that have somehow accumulated over the years. Somebody writes something, it’s completely off the wall, but it gets filed and repeated until everyone believes it. For instance, I’ve read that I wear a football helmet in the car.
Stanley Kubrick
Pretty much all the drivers I get on with, at least to say ‘Hi’ and have a conversation. But when the helmet’s on, you don’t care who it is. You have no sympathy: someone blows an engine in front of you, if it means you gain a position, then you’re smiling.
Daniel Ricciardo
I lead by example. My kids know what sweat is. They’ve seen me come home from so many runs and asked, ‘What’s on your skin? How did you get it?’ And I tell them, ‘It’s from exercise!’ So now my son will come home from a bike ride, take off his helmet and say, ‘Look, Mom. I’m sweating! I just worked out!’
Summer Sanders
‘Fowl Space’ was a lovechild of boredom. While in class, two of the developers started passing designs back and forth. Somewhere in the middle of all that ink and crumpled paper, a chicken in a space helmet was born and thus we have ‘Fowl Space.’
Rob Manuel
I’m amazed people talk about my helmet – saying it makes me feel psychologically better. I would love to play without it, but I’m not allowed to by the doctor. As long as I’m told by the doctor I’m running too much risk to play without it, I’ll play with it. There’s no other way for me.

Francis Lawrence
I’ve had knee trouble, and I worry about my shoulder, but I think my weakest link is my head. A helmet can only do so much, and I have seen the effects of brain injuries. That is a big fear. I think everyone’s weakest link is their brain because it’s their most fragile link.

Yes, Clay Matthews has a long, golden, Fabio-esque flowing mane that most women would chick-slap someone for.

Oscar Isaac
I think for me, wearing the helmet and being part of the Stormtroopers felt so strange. Like, so this is what it feels like to just be one of the many. And to look the same, and to have to do the same thing. To be under the same orders. This is what it feels like.

Lindsey Vonn
