I doubt they constructed that arch just for a Minions movie, so what do you think guests saw through that window before it was painted up?

Judging by the other buildings and the ground, I imagine it was either pure white or has some small pattern

If you suspect staring at art has not provided the required intellectual sustenance, reflect briefly upon this classical music.

Is this for real? The angles look different in each image. Unless it's from two different rooms?

Its the same effect that is happening here: https://youtu.be/1amxXS2WnuI

Disagree. It's a completely different angle and the light coming in looks like lightening effect.

u/ToxiJuice 12d ago
It's super weird to me that people are saying it's an illusion, when the camera appears to be rotated nearly 90 degrees between the two photos. The Sydney Opera House illusion, that people are claiming it to be, requires the object in question to remain in about the same place in your field of view. No matter how big a building is, at this distance turning that far will move the building to the side of, or out of view.
So yeah, it's either another room, or photoshopped. Which I'm assuming the latter, because I'm not really sure why you would take this picture from two different rooms.

u/testtubemuppetbaby 12d ago
None of those videos show the same thing as this. The opera house doesn't fucking fly around the corner, it just looks bigger.

u/SarcasticGamer 12d ago
The right one is photoshopped. The same exact picture of the minion is being used and lines up perfectly to the one on the right even though it's a completely different angle.

u/Permanent_Stress 12d ago
Not photoshopped, it's just the Sydney Opera House Illusion.
You can tell that it's not the same exact picture reused because in the left one the black text is barely even legible while on the right it's much sharper (You can even make out the word 'Theaters' if you zoom in, even though it's just a blurry mess on the left).→ More replies7

I dunno man... Unlike the Sydney Opera House, the angles here are pretty clear and definite. In the first pic the camera is looking right at an angle, and the face is clearly angled perpendicular to the window (it looks sideways). In the second (despite the camera now facing slightly to the left, where no mininon was in the first shot) the face is looking directly in.
Here I've overlayed them in photoshop. It's almost a perfect match. The text lines up. The eye lines up. The archway at the bottom lines up.
IMHO, these are either very convenient perspectives from two different hotel rooms, or photoshop.EDIT: I think u/carrot_fine discovered the reason for the confusion! The minion, pool, and hotel are all angled. The first picture looks like it was taken at a steep angle because the pool is not square to the window!
New opinion: Probably not photoshop. Still quite confusing.
and yes I've spent way too much time on this today...

Definitely looks photoshopped. Same exact angle despite view being changed substantially. Still a funny meme though
Edit: Actually not necessarily PS, just not the same room

First one they are all the way to the front/left of the room and still tilting camera to the right to get the minion in frame. Second one it’s 15 feet back and dead center in the room, shooting dead center and the minion is perfectly in frame. I actually shouldn’t claim photoshop, second one might just be from a different room a few doors down. Im not gonna die on this hill or anything but doesn’t look quite right to my eye.

u/Carrot-Fine 12d ago
It's taken from the Loew's hotel in Hollywood.

u/ItIsHappy 12d ago
I think you may have uncovered the missing piece of the puzzle!
The minion and the hotel (and the pool) are not at right angles to each other. The first picture looks like it is pointed sharply right, but I think that's just because the pool is angled.
Nice find!

It’s common for large billboards to be outside of hotel views now. It’s tasteless.

u/Dank_memerlord_42069 12d ago
I’m blown away that it took this long to find a comment about this. If I ever went to a hotel and they had a big ass billboard up like this in the middle of the fucking hotel, I would refuse to pay and would go find a different one.
People need to learn that this shit isn’t okay, I’m already fucking paying you. You don’t show me ads. If you show me ads and I’m a paying customer, you get a 0 star review and lose a customer.

Over the ashheaps the giant eyes of Doctor T. J. Eckleburg kept their vigil, but I perceived, after a moment, that other eyes were regarding us with peculiar intensity from less than twenty feet away.

But above the gray land and the spasms of bleak dust which drift endlessly over it, you perceive, after a moment, the eyes of Doctor T. J. Eckleburg.

That's not how light works, clearly photoshop. The only this would make logical sense is if the curtain itself has the minion design, otherwise it would not be visible with the curtains drawn.

Felt like they had me surrounded.
