Artist Recreates Images From Famous Movie Scenes With Everyday Objects & Paper Cutouts

Artists see the world differently… even tiny bits of the world.

For example, where most of us would see a phone charger cable, an artist who goes by @paperboyo on Instagram sees Indiana Jones’ whip. And is that a spray bottle of cleaner, or an advanced weapon made just for Agent 007? Paperboyo has explored these possibilities by recreating famous movie shots using these unremarkable objects and some detailed paper cutouts, and they are about as close to perfection as you can get.

⁣POSTER GIVEAWAY (Competition now closed). Somehow it's nearly Christmas again so between now and the big day I'm giving away A3 prints (297x420mm) of some of my personal favourites, starting with this Deadpool & London mashup. ⁣ To enter the competition:⠀⁣ ⠀⁣ 1) Follow me (although if you're seeing this you probably already are).⠀⁣ 2) Like this post.⠀⁣ 3) Tag 2 friends. ⁣ ⠀⁣ You're welcome to comment & tag as many times as you like (because lets be honest I'm not going to go through the comments checking you've only entered once). They'll be two individual winners winning a print each and I'll ship anywhere in the world- so whether you're in Armenia or Zambia you are welcome to enter. Competition closes on Sunday at 23:59 UK time. ⠀⁣ ⠀⁣ I don't sell my prints so this is one of the only opportunities you'll have to get your hands on one (but they'll be more giveaways over the next few weeks). Good Luck!

2. The Lion King

View this post on Instagram

It’s probably true of a lot of people my age that The Lion King is one of those movie experiences which is a really fond memory. That’s why I’m psyched for the live action re-make. I was at an event a couple of years ago where Jon Favreau (the director) was talking about it and ever since then I’ve been excited about it. So I thought I’d Disneyfy the London skyline for this one to celebrate @cineworld 's Unlimited card, which will let me watch The Lion King as many times as I want – plus offers advance screenings, discounts on cinema food & drinks and more for one monthly price! #ad #Cineworld #Unlimited

3. Toy Story

Toy Story 4 is out next month (I can't wait), but even before then the new X-Men, Men in Black and Aladdin films are coming out. I think there’s going to be a lot of trips to the cinema this summer, and for anyone who’s thinking the same, @cineworld have their Unlimited card which offers unlimited films, advance screenings and discounts on food & drinks at the cinema–all for one monthly price…so there’s plenty to keep me busy until Woody & Buzz are back #ad #Cineworld #Unlimited

4. Captain America

Captain America and the rest of the Avengers are back (don't worry, there's no spoilers here) and in time for 'Avengers: Endgame' @cineworld have just expanded their cinema at The O2 to nineteen screens, making it London's biggest cinema. It's got VIP experiences, ScreenX, Superscreens and 4DX which means when it rains in the film – it rains in the cinema, when there's a car chase in the film – the seats shake in the cinema and when a rocket blasts off in the film – steam appears in the cinema. It's crazy. By the way I don't know if 'Avengers: Endgame' features rain, a car chase or a rocket blast so none of those are spoilers #ad #CineworldO2

5. Aquaman

View this post on Instagram

Want to feel immersed in the underwater world of Atlantis without getting wet? Standing in the middle of Dublin after a torrential rainstorm is one option but another (more comfortable option) is catching Aquaman on an @IMAX screen. I can't claim he'll actually look as tall as the Dublin Spire, but with 26% more picture only in IMAX, he'll definitely be bigger than on any other screen. The film is out now in IMAX cinemas across the UK & Ireland (including the two screens here in Dublin) #aquaman @aquamanmovie

After I took this I realised I should have used a hammer, instead of bathroom spray, and called this "No Time to DIY". ⁣ On an unrelated note, if you're looking for thirty minutes to take your mind off things then tomorrow I'll be hosting an Instagram Live over on the @saatchi_gallery account at 2pm (BST). I'll be showing you a few ideas like this that you can do at home (but not this specific one 'cos it'll probably land me a lawsuit). So dig out some paper or card (any colour) & some scissors and I'll see you tomorrow.⁣ ⁣ #saatchiartclub #bond #jamesbond
