Could you cover the HBO max show “the baby”?🙏🏾
ForK YOU MORON< without fossil fuels there goes western society. climate change happens of scales of geologic time, 500 to 1000 years. the climate change hysteria is about governments who want money and power. these robots are programmed with libtarded propaganda and limited knowledge of who they were programmed to serve.
The Ukraine is another corrupt government and they are also taking taxpayer money. the biggest grift in American history and those doomsday preppers probably has just as much money as the billionaires as that camp could have been cheap to build.
Fossil fuels are cleaner than Lithium mining which is strip mining, there is no replacement and electric cars still used the grid that also uses those same fuels wind and solar are not options all the time, the sun doesn't always shine, and the wind does not always blow. easy for a spoiled western liberal to speak for everyone else.
Build the wall is to stop illegal immigration not the legal kind and you should be so mad that everyone want Canada when they want to leave the US and not Mexico. you dont got allot space up there. not usable ones too much.
Bad traveling felt like a movie in less than half an hour. It is so good.
It did!
If Netflix was smart they would use this series as a catalyst for new shows to see what sticks and what has traction.
@@jonathanslaughter3292 Yeah like this feels like they were shitting our ideas into the show to see what would’ve stuck
@@animan-264 The series is meant as a crock pot of ideas for creatives, but given their latest financial woes, its a good idea
@@jonathanslaughter3292 i think it is better if they remain shorts, that way they leave a lot more to our imagination
Adding to this analysis. He wanted money, she wanted love. Both of them trying to gain one from another would hurt each other. When she kissed him, he bled. When he touched her, he took off some gems and she bled. I found that so interesting.
If take into account that she wiped out all of his comrades before, this story seems to be more about revenge)
I think she's a metaphor for our beautiful home, Gaia. She's on defense in the beginning, tired of being exploited for wealth. She just wants to love and care for us, and we're only concerned with how she can profit us. That's just my reading, though.
@@whiteshadow9143 I thought of it as greed over revenge. You were able to tell what their true intentions were. He had a eye for wealth over other people. Remember when he found a gold nugget in the very beginning. He was looking around and tucked it away before anyone else would see it. The same way people were “hush hush” about their finds during the gold rush so they can come back to collect more for themselves. For her, the way she grabbed herself in comfort after she realized her scream or spell didn’t work on him. How she followed him after he ran away. She was looking for comfort and love.
In general, I think you’re right. She represented the “land” and the lake. She took revenge against the greed. I also can see a symbolization on how Mother Nature always shows us who’s boss when humans think we can dominate the land.
@@ShirleyTimple Yes!!
@@aaliyahhernandez223 I meant that the main character chased her for revenge) It would be strange from his side to trust creature who killed his friends)
For the record, Kivelson didn't really have a choice in bringing her crewmate with her. Her oxygen tank had burst, so even though dead weight is true, it was that or instant death
Came here to say the same. Use the dead suits oxygen.
@MajorRenegade Do exactly what she did except leave the body.
Exactly. How are we to get any of this explained by someone who missed this very basic and relevant element?
@MajorRenegade No, as in ditch the body, haul just the suit.
Yes that's the whole poetic part of it.
I saw the siren in Jibaro as more a representation of the land rather than the people. Scores of people died trying to get to her and that is where her danger lies. When the main soldier doesn't get lured to his death, she is curious and affectionate. In his greed and annoyance, he strips her of everything he finds valuable and leaves.
In the end, the land remains, you can't kill it no matter what you take from it, but it suffers.
Yeah I was disappointed he was a pillager type. I thought that she could maybe find real love with this deaf man who she wouldn't (accidentally/reflexively) hurt. But no he chose violence.
This interpretation (i think) is further supported because of how in the sirens territory you see that there are little colored circles around the foliage and trees. Once she dies the magic circles around the forest disappear then reappear when she is revived.
I think the whole pillaging thing is kind of overlooking the main point of the piece. Don't get me wrong, they are definitely greedy misguided pillagers but she is also a murderous monster thats killed hundreds, we don't actually know why they are there and the artist deliberately kept stuff ambiguous in regards to location and culture. The jewelry on the siren was based on different jewelry from multiple cultures around the world and shes based on a greek myth. The soldiers definitely had a strong conquistador theme but also had a lot of Germanic and Celtic design thrown in too.
The real point of the piece is about toxic relationships. They both end up obsessed with each other but for completely shallow self serving reasons and it leads to the destruction of them both.
Nature and land is used to make a point in the piece but not about literal land and nature, he just used land and nature to contrast the horrific toxic relationship, theres all this vanity and greed, brutal imagery that represents the horrific potential of some relationships. But its contrasted by beautiful shots of nature and the scenery, representing the beauty in whats real and often overlooked. And honestly on my first couple of watches I overlooked it too, so the point was made haha
Its a really really clever piece.
Same.
@@gravygames5945 Hundreds of thousands of dead bodies are already there. She represent a land or a nation what was damaged badly but still no one could conquer or keep, bcuz the conquerors took what they wanted than left. Makes more sense than toxic relationship. But I know some people really obsessed seeing that topic in every piece of art. Like here you can see a leaf falling down and rot away.. Its about change, death, circle of life. Than some people will go "its about toxic realtionships".
As an artist I follow many many pages and in every topic I see someone who forcing the toxic theory.
Jibaro blew me away. Not a word of dialogue, just raw emotion conveyed through imagery and sound. Outstanding
The way you described it sounds very similar to Genndy Tartakovsky's work, like Samurai Jack or better yet Primal. Imagine him doing an episode on the next volume lol
@@younggooni14 I'm totally down for that. Had a roommate once that introduced me to Samurai Jack and it's so good!
@@younggooni14 honestly surprised he hasn't already done one for this tbh, his style just fits right in.
Jibaro was unbearable
@@pickle7433 stick to fortnite, it's more age appropriate
13:10 My take on Harper walking into the desert was that she took her eyes and ears to prevent the monster from controlling her. There certainly seemed to be a visual and auditory component to the mind control. So yes, she was driven mad, but did NOT release the creature.
My take as well.
But how did she got out of the cave
without her eyes?
I mean, it was Cthulhu. Why haven't I seen anyone mention Cthulhu?
@@davidburkhardt5265 I'm with you as well that was clearly what it was even down to the mind melting experience of conversing with it.
This changes the perspective of the eye's being cut out as the soldier might have remembered stories and knew it was the only way to stop being controlled
@@davidburkhardt5265 Because Cthulhu resides in R'lyeh, an ancient city underneath the ocean. Pretty much as far removed from this desert setting as possible. A lovecraftian creature, yes, of course. Calling any odd space horror type creature Cthulhu though is cheapening both Cthulhu and the new creature.
Bad travelling is so good that it deserves to be remade as a full length movie. Whereas jibaro is visually stimulating yet disturbing. This season is awesome! I was excited for this season, now I need more!
I agree. I was honestly expecting one of the crabs babies to be hiding on the boat
i don't think this should be a full lenght move. it would be too slow and eventually boring
@@morphoblu4 he was the crab the whole time
Extending shorts into movies never works. Agreed with Boorn.
@@LyaksandraB District 9 was based off of a short film, the concept was extended to a full length movie and it was pretty good.
Jibaro was the most visually stunning. The golden siren dancing and screeching was mesmerizing. Story wise, my favorite was the one with the giant crab. I appreciate your explanation of symbols in each episode.
I guess if you like 1999 CGI sure
The animation was very weird. It ranged from "holy shit is this really animated and not just a woman in a costume?" to "ps3 era game cutscene"
@@timbusfahrer3172 Apparently that was on purpose as an artistic choice as the lead animator likes to blur the line between real and fake, so a lot of it was actually motion capture from real actors and then other bits was like skyrim animation.
Honestly i love the story and the idea of Jibaro but i could finish watching it, sitting there with the overly shaky camera and the shifting animation style actually made my eyes hurt so bad i had to skip through it to see the ending
@@Rocko7927 the camera and the audio was a shit show. I know they want us to understand the feeling of being deaf but having the audio blasting one second and becoming complete silent the other was a terrible idea.
My god, i was blown away by its visuals...Its absolutely stunning!
I've never seen anything like Jibaro before, so mindblowing, the episode was so poetic and haunting.
Definitely my favorite of the season.
Me and my friends watched them on LSD last night . . . And indeed, it was mindblowing
@@thisiswherethefunbegins38 hahaha dude I knew it, this episode is perfect for a lsd/weed experience
exactly!
it was shit watch the whole season in a min lmao poop show
Honestly, from a comedic standpoint, Night of the Mini Dead is one of my personal favorites. Sure, it's supposed to be dark in context, but when everybody sounds like Alvin & the Chipmunks amidst all the chaos, you can't help but have a laugh.
It’s a comedic tragedy. As the mini world succumbed not by accident, but by choice.
Suck on these!
Zombies??! Not in our country! Proceeds to missile strike our own country lol...loved it
and then there's that small fart sound in the end. lol.
Shaolin monks wasnt having none of that zombie apocalypse foolishness 😂. Them mfs was ready
My interpretation of In vaulted halls entombed’s ending is this:
I think after wasting her Ammo, Harper realized she had no easy way of killing herself (she mentioned saving a bullet for herself, which I took as her not having the stomach for using the knife to do it)
However, the creature was already digging into her mind at this point, shouting “Release me” over and over at her. What I *Think* happened is that harper, out of desperation, cut off her ears and eyes in order to either A. Prevent herself from being able to release him or B. Try to get him out of her head. As she’s walking into the desert, I believe what she’s saying is “Release me” over and over again, but in the creature’s native language.
i totally agree with you, just wanted to say personally i think i would rather take the knife to my stomach or throat than take my eyes and ears out 😂 but that’s just me, great points.
@@existent456 yeah that’s why I’m hesitant on saying that’s what happened definitively, but then again shooting the thing wasn’t entirely rational either lol
Wow, I didn’t even notice she cut off her ears too I was too focused on her eyes good catch!!
The Creature is Cthulhu from HP Lovecraft’s universe. Worth researching, lots of questions will be answered.
@@adandypunk it doesnt have to be cthulhu to be an eldritch horror, tho.
"Bad Travelling" was definitely the highlight of the season. There was much in this season that seemed very familiar: "Kill Team Kill" reads very much like "Sucker of Souls" from Sn. 1 and "Jibaro" seems to have the same frenetic animation as "The Witness" from Sn 1; the hallucinations of "The Very Pulse of the Machine" also reminded me of "Fish Night", and "In Vaulted Halls Entombed" had the nightmarish qualities similar to "Beyond the Aquila Rift". This season was very much a return to form witnessed in Season 1, and I look forward to the next iteration of stories. Definitely a step up from Season II
Great analysis I thought the same thing. Hopefully next season will have more stories and episodes.
I thought this 3rd season was more lackluster than the other 2
Yes, I was so disappointed with S2, but felt like they got back on track this season, it felt like S1 and I loved all of the stories & animation.
@@basketballguru9879 How so?
Probably the same animation studios, yeah. I noticed that too.
Unpopular opinion but personally I love mason’s rats the most. The scene where the spider bot fired a rat to death when it was thrown vertically to the air made Mason realize how horror is this death machine at killing. It’s very gruesome, but interesting why they decided to graphically show it because they wanna point the brutality of the machine. It’s what subsequently piqued Mason’s empathy. The episode has everything. Humor, meaning, shock, sadness, closed with a good ending by them making peace (even Mason discovered that his “enemy” actually produces a great wine that he probably never tasted anywhere else before! Showing hostility isn’t always the best route)
Yesss!! I thought the same thing too!
not unpopular at all bro, that one was my favourite one as well
I love that short for two big reasons.
One: Pretty much everything you just said.
Two: I grew up watching The Late Late Show.
I also agree. I think it has a unique charm to it and I think it is my favorite as well. I’d love to see more of it.
Mason's rats, jibaro, and bad travelling were my favorites.
Jibaro's ending actually made me feel sad for a vicous, deadly but beautiful monster. When she saw her body stripped off of her ornaments, it was like seeing a bird whose feathers were ripped to shreads and all she can do at that point was shriek in heartbreak and agony. Needless to say, that ending soundtrack in Jibaro was absolutely phenomenal and whoever designed the siren is an artistic genius.
Sameeeee I was like Awee she’s hurt but it all started when he took the gold
Sexual assault
Beautiful?!!
Tbf she did deserve it
@@MTC24236 Lol...to each and to own I guess. I find her wonderfully attractive. I can look past the bloodshot eyes but everything else is pretty. She's like a Persian princess from a fairytale but with a dark twist. Too bad she isn't a real person.
I don't know why, and it hit me out of nowhere, but as I was watching "The very pulse if the Machine" I suddenly started to cry. Not out of sadness or anything, just because it was so beautiful and really struck something in me. If I ever need the feels, I go back, never stops to amaze me.
For me that's the last episode of the Midnight Gospel. Whenever I need the emotional release of crying but can't for whatever reason. Not quite sad enough or an emotional block or whatever. Without fail when his mom says "you cry" I break down and sob. Hard. But I also feel better after without fail.
Ikr i almost started tearing outta nowhere thats a masterpiece for u rite there
Need to mention the "Swarm"`s origin. A brilliant story by Bruce Sterling, a friend and co-writer of a much well-known Whilliam Gibson. The book shows the story wider, dr. Afriel is already genetically-modfied person, and the pocession of that top-notch genetical logostics and management system of the swarm is viable for his faction, known as "shapers". Shapers are gene-engineers, confronting "traditional" cyber-enhanced "mechanists", so Afriel accepts the proposition of the mastermind with the hope and the feeling of doom at the same time. He will be either the one who can save the his part of humanity by infiltrating and corrupting the swarm from inside, or become the power which will kill everyone, including all foes. Seems like he has a huge Herostratus complex - and the book tells it more clearly. One more thing - the old race seen in the beginning was smart and wise enough to build a blockade around the swarm, and doctor Afriel had to go undercover, breaking the law, with no any chance for a "peaceful deal" shown in the episode.
I just checked: at the end the swarm says to Afriel that it would have missed it‘s conversations. I am not sure if it means previous conversation from the woman, or Afriel has been tricked before and is already part of the swarm. It using him to alternate different intrusions tactics.
@@flxjspxjslxlspdbfoviebfc Not exactly. It`s not the "whole swarm", but the "thinking species", deployed by the swarm to confront the intelligent foes. It becomes alive once in a million years or so (and was a separate race before, as any other in theswarm). And it says "Ithink I would miss this kind of conversation if you reject".
I’ve noticed people don’t see how Harper also cut her ears off when she took her eyes. I thought of it as since she didn’t initially fall under the lull of the beast and knew what would happen if she freed the beast. So to cut its influence as it started to pull her she did that damage to herself to prevent her from freeing the leviathan/monster. But that’s what I got from it
The beast is kathulu
@@awokenv7302 its not
I admit I missed th ears it the first time too
@@DonTrentino why wouldn't it be cthulhu? looks exactly like it lol
I thought the beast was just the devil
The animation for Jibaro alone was INSANE the fluidity of her movements was amazing I kept questioning if the characters were real or not so dope definitely the best one
I think they used mocap for the siren
@@joeyhampton5075 i really hope so because if not then I'm in love with a thing that was made through ART
That whole thing was animated? I thought it was mix of live action. 😳
i was dragged to enough ballet recitals as a kid to recognize classic and modern ballet moves, although I suspect they were interlaced with other dance maneuvers from other cultures like india bharatanatyam and persian whirling dervishes. It seemed like between this choreography and speeding up the movements of the people to unnatural speeds produced that fluid visual effect.
I loved how the camera wasn’t stable and constantly shaking giving a disorienting feel. Then the camera becomes still after jibaro kills the siren, it took me a second to recognize the camera change
Just a little info: "Jibaro" is pronounced "Hee-bah-ro". It's the word given to the older generation of people that live in the mountains of Puerto Rico. They are highly regarded by many as keepers of the Island's culture.
I was going to correct him LOL
Are they kind of like sages or shaman?
@@serronserron1320 No, more like calling someone country or a hick.
When I saw this, I thought it was about Puerto Rico.
@@josael28tnz it is
Jibaro hit me like a Mack truck, on fire, coming at me downhill at 200 mph. That was one of the most amazing pieces of art/work I have ever viewed in my life. I watched it three times back to back. Honestly, the graphics were better than anything I have ever seen. More direct, the Siren was beyond beautifully made. Just stunning.
Martha didnt drag her friend for sentimental value, if you re watch the short her oxygen tank is damaged, and has to use her friends tank.
exactly! surprised how he missed that
Yeah, I thought that was obvious, I was a bit surprised he didn't pick up on that.
Good point. Wouldn't it have been easier to cut off the oxygen supply from her suit than drag her over 40km.
I feel like she could have left the body though. The suit was compromised, so she could have popped it open and taken the pack.
@@TroyAtLightNGames We don't know whether that's practical under the circumstances. I'm going to assume it's a technical issue, as I HOPE we don't hire astronauts who are stupid enough to drag a corpse 40km across rough terrain instead of just swapping packs.
Bad Traveling felt like a whole 2 hour movie told in just a mere 20 minutes
Right?!! Kept me on the edge of my seat the whole time. Such great story telling and character development in such short time.
David Fincher, of course. He's the director AND producer of Love Death and Robots - so he'll definitely know what best represents the show
I thought I was the only one that thought that, I'm like wait... This was only 20 minutes???
The creativity in this series is insane! We all have our favourites, but let's appreciate there have been three amazing seasons with no signs of slowing down.
JIBARO is stuck in my mind. Absolutely brilliant. The dancing woman's character felt so powerful and ecstatic.
Man I am SO glad they stepped it up this season. The last season felt like they didn't even try it was so bad. But I liked 8/9 of these episodes. This was a badass season.
I agree 100%
I was so disappointed with season 2, but I'm really impressed with this season
@@cringegod5415 I liked the first and second season, but the third one is a disappointment for me. I mean everyone has a different taste so I am fine with it
@@Wolf-hf9fv can you tell me what you disliked about season 3
@@cringegod5415 same, just curious lol
Yes, season 2 was a disappointment.
Technically she isn’t carrying deadweight in the metaphorical sense… as she doesn’t have a choice not to… she is connected to her friend’s oxygen tank, and hence has to drag her along to keep breathing….
Exactly! Thank you for typing that so I didn't have to.
that's pretty silly why not just remove the tank, the body's helmet being broken also shows that the tank is disconnected from the suit somehow.
@@harrynguyen5044 the suits didn't have any visible removable tanks, so they were probably too integrated in the suit to be removed
@@dr.terrible remove the corpse from the suit.. take only the suit! ;) think smart
@@tiagosousa3504 where would she remove the suit? the car is broken
Im glad im not alone in the adoration of jibaro. Its so stunning, the makeup and singing so heartfelt. When she lures him after the abuse its so soulful in the most harrowing way.
Even though I didn't care that much for how it was edited, and the somewhat basic story, the graphics and imagery are unreal. I sat there stunned at how ridiculous it looked - the detail was amazing. Never seen anything like it. The animation in all of these shorts are pretty other worldly, but that was truly stunning.
I gotta disagree with yea on this one I easily think the last episode was easily the worst due to the following. The camera work and editing, the basic story, the weird art style, and finally the lack of any dialogue with the only sound being mostly lack luster music and screaming primarily from the siren. Now the anamation is top tier never seen anything look so good it was almost uncanny, but the way they went about editing that shit pissed off they way they showed it off made my head hurt with the quickly changing camera angles and fast pace feel of the cuts and idk maybe some people like that but it gave me a headache. Next the lack of dialogue, when listening or even watching a good story I like context and I think the lowest form of art or expression is what they did here with silent symbolism. Now it might just be me again but some dialogue would have help even if it was a few words the priests and knights said about why they are there or the siren making remarks about the dead knight but somthing or better yet anything would have been better then nothing idk the first time I watch this I was angry because of how moronic and a waste of my time it was. Lastly the music choice and sound design and frankly I just hated it more due to all the female screaming now to be fair it's a pet peeve of mine the one thing I hate more then anything is woman screaming at the top of their lungs it hurts my ears and irritates me idk why but if you wanted to put me in a bad mood that's how yea do it as for the music I had some moments were I felt it fit well but over all I'm not impressed again this most likely from the point where the editing and camera work followed by constant needless screaming most likely pissed me off but I can keep my cool enough to reflect and I forced myself to watch that shit 3 times so I can say over all its trash through and through. That said I think this and the third season over all slapped hard compared to the last season and nothing I mean nothing can be worse then that god awful second season finally the drowned giant that shit still pissed me off more for how long it lasted and how boring it was I can't bring myself to watch it without wanting to claw my eyes out and cut off my ears like the woman from the lovecraft short. But idk I think alot of artist shorts have low bars and even worse story telling skills compared to others it maybe just me but the more I ask around I'm not exactly wrong even with people who are more into artistic things than me. But this was my 2 cents take it or leave I wasn't trying to be rude but I just can't easily comprehend why anyone would like what I would consider to be trash in almost every degree and that's not even me bringing up the fact the one guy is deaf and a knight but i digress il leave it there no need to get into my love of history over dumb things.
Its animation so i think there is no makeup
Sorry but I could not get behind that one at all, it was super weird and the editing was spastic.
@@loplop019 correct, half the time the characters aren't even acted with the same person. It's 100% hand made CGI with motion reference. They didn't use mocap apparently.
I think you missed 2 things:
1) The very pulse of the machine: She doesn't bring per partner along cause of altruism - her air supply is running short and her suit is incapable of holding air due to damage so she is using her partners suit to get the air - you can even see her beeing linked to her.
2) Jibaro - I think one thing you missed here is when Jibaro kisses the siren she bites him bloody, so its not only "he goes mad", tho that episode probably kept me most confused^^
I think it was less her biting him, and more any contact with her at all hurts. The gold she wore even cut him when he tried to grab her. She took an interest in him because she thought he was different from the other knights. I don't think she wanted to hurt him, but didn't understand that she was.
I took it as her lips were encrusted with gems. They looked like jagged rubies.
The whole episode Jibaro is about toxic relationships and not listening to red flags. Hence his literal metaphorical deafness.
I have to add two things:
In "In Vaulted Halls Entombed" she also cut her ears probably so she would stop the temptation of the ancient monster...
In Jibaro: The reason why everybody was lured by the siren was indeed their greed and that is also what she thought. But she had never encounter someone who was deaf so she thought he is not greedy like evrybody else is, thats why she in her own way gave him her trust...
That was not entirely trust or love, when she kisses him she torn apart the guys mouth, I think that was curiosity
@@mingxuanfan she didn't dress herself that's what she's made of lol. She didn't choose to have gold and jewelry for skij
@@mindlandscape5767 yea she assaulted him even before he took the gold
@@mingxuanfan yeah you obviously missed the entire point and plot
@@mingxuanfan SHE LITERALLY DIDN'T WTF ARE YOU ON ABOUT???
I think Sarge was already predisposed to obeying Not-Cthulthulu's commands to release him and wreak devastation because he was a sadistic person, shown by how he was gunning down the fleeing terrorists in the middle of a Lovecraftian temple while being chased by killer monsters. Killing human opponents would seem like the least of your concerns at that point, but he did it anyway, and continued into the cave to pursue the surviving enemies even though the hostage was already dead, which they probably used to foreshadow him being more susceptible to the Not-Old One's corrupting influence.
Interesting take. What about him putting a fellow soldier out of his misery? I personally wouldn't say he is sadistic. He has a war mentality, he didn't show love to his enemies. At least he shot his fellow soldier who was getting eaten alive. It shows he has mercy and cares about his squad and their pain. That's my take, but I may be wrong.
@@TheNoraa890 Oh yeah, and the other soldier was kind of in the wrong for thinking she could save someone who was clearly dying. It's just it really stuck out as odd that he's standing in a giant lovecraftian temple, being chased by killer spiders, and he chooses to try to gun down fleeing terrorists, instead of, I don't know, trying to team up with his fellow humans against this clearly inhuman evil or just saving ammo.
Also look at his Patch on his Plate Carrier its a FOG patch and those guys are known Mercs/War criminals.
@@crispwhitesheets2175 its the blackbeard flag. many military SOF and even civilian people have it. Also FOG aren't War Criminals.
@@purpleblah2 When things are overwhelming, people tend to resort to “what they know” as the response to stress. Hence the phrase, “you don’t rise to the level of your expectations, you fall to the level of your training”. In this case, he saw a target and removed a potential threat, the way he had practiced hundreds or thousands of times. It was a tiny space of mental clarity in a truly, messed up situation. Loved that the writers put it in there as a way for him to hold onto any sense of sanity. It’s like the mother who insists on cooking dinner, oblivious to anything else, when she’s told a loved one has died. People look at her as if she’s insane, while that “active meditation” is her way of KEEPING her sanity in the moment.
Been a LDR fan since the beginning and Jibaro and The Witness are two of my favorite episodes. Jibaro is just an explosion of emotions, life, death, color, and everything in between for an episode with barely no dialogue. Alberto Mielgo never ceases to amaze me, he is one of the most talented storytellers and artist of our time.
"Jibaro" left me in awe! Visually, artistically, and well written. Watched it a fee times. would love to see more from this cast 👏
It low key looked like an old video game cutscene or a machinima to me. It wasntnreally interesting from a story or concept perspective. It was the worst of all three seasons for me.
it shows how the conquistadors came to puerto rico and rape our beautiful tainas and stole everything
I just love how unique the stories are. It feels like no huge movie puts that much work into it even tho they are ten times as long
and the level of detail they pack in, like the names in the swarm i had no idea of the connection until this.
thats the benefit of telling a short story, less is more
imo it's because of the short nature of these episodes that lends itself to being far more creative.
these can be as short or longs as they need to be, and worlds can be created and tailor made to tell that one story.
take Bad Traveling. The explanation that this is a space fairing society that still uses Victorian era weapons and boating is absurd, but its all the backdrop to essentially create Monster Flick.
These shorts are also not trying to set themselves up for a sequel or a cinematic universe so they wrap up with definitive ends, whether or not that means the main character lives or dies, something else movies don't do because that means they can't make sequels if it's successful. no Hollywood studio would end Vaulted Halls Entombed with the female lead walking away mutilated, because "we need her for the sequels"
@@PernappleCartoons how do you know they are space faring?
In Vaulted Halls Entombed: there's a third possibility that you may have missed. She may have cut her eyes out so that she couldn't see, and if she can't see, she can't free the Lovecraftian creature. So, her body is on autopilot, wandering the desert with the instructions from the creature to set it free, but her body can't see to complete the task because it doesn't know where it is.
Additional Edit: Part of the reason why I think this is mostly due to the Lovecraftian horror that the story presents. Yes, the creature doesn't look to be a member of any of the Old Ones, but typically, for the Cthulhu mythos, those that encounter such a situation are often killed or suffer a fate worse than death. And more often than not, people in such works try to end their suffering. So, in that regard, it makes sense that she was able to keep her mind about herself enough to be able to self mutilate herself in order to keep the creature from being set free while she still had control of her body.
Interesting. I figured she did try and manage to leave, but that was the creature's punishment for it.
Although I guess she could as easily have done it to herself in her last moments of consciousness, but, then again, she could have also just killed herself (as she alluded to before).
So I figured that was not something she did, but that was done to her... idk, it could have been clearer the ending.
(As if she was no longer able to help, either way, the spiders had no reason to attack either)
yeah also I thought that the visions might be from a past age when the creature was trapped. And like the spider bots are probably not related to the creature but rather were probs placed there to make sure that no one can get in to release the leviathan thing
Yeah I think she used her last bullet on her boss so had to find some way to stop herself from releasing the creature. like maybe it hypnotizes you so not being able to see breaks its hold
I felt that eyes were espec. important, if you look at scene monster start opening its eyes one after another then start staring into its victim eyes (at first sarge) and then they are locked in eye contact - which seems to be thing that allow brainwashing. (you know saying-eyes are window to your soul) And whispers as 2nd-ry effect. Seems like creature isnt telepath, but using some light waves manipulation (eye contact) and possibly sounds (whispers) as way to brainwash its victim. Thats why soldier cut her eyes and ears trying to prevent creature from invading her mind.If she managed that in time or not is another story..
This is the conclusion that I came to as well
Jibaro had me absolutely sobbing the first time we watched it. As a SA victim it just.. struck me. I eventually got her tattooed on my body. This one and the Mini zombies were my favorite of the season.
Bad traveling was easily my favorite. The story telling and how it piece by piece moved forward was incredible
Swarm was my favorite. Reminds me of what would really happen in Starship Troopers and Mass Effect. It’s horrifying when you think of SPOILER all those parasite races that failed. The Swarm is undefeated!
dude that’s literally plot from starcraft game
yes, it is creepy.
Swarm was my WORST one because it was the most predictable. As soon as the dude had to go in there with no clothes, I knew how it was going to turn out.
@@babufits1584 yes, pretty obvious when we saw all those amazing aliens be mindless drones. But still, the aliens were unique.
I thought Swarm was very Aavatar visually, completely stunning and terrifying
Bad Traveling is my favorite in this season. The pirate setting, the monster, the betrayal all compacted in one the most realistic animation I had seen all year.
I made the mistake of eating when I watched that.
It's not pushing realism. But top class textures and simulations. Unlike the s1 episode of the shape shifting soldiers , or the s3 episode about the soldiers who go into the cave and the lady cuts her eyes out.
@@nhlanhlasithole2899 ok
It reminded me of Last of Us but on Sea
My interpretation of "In Vaulted Halls Entombed" was that she carved out her own eyes and punctured her own ears (u can see the blood dripping from it) in order to avoid being mind controlled by the alien and in the process she went mad with the images
Jibaro hits the top of my list. It's crazy almost uncanny valley art style and rapid but non-sickening camera movements feel like you're in a dream. The themes are simple to grasp, thus easily to follow and allow you to feel not left in the dark. It presents everything to you in a very beautiful but horrific manner.
I loved this season. For pure entertainment value, Mason’s Rats had me in stitches and also cheering for the pint-sized underdogs. However, Jibaro was the episode that transfixed me to the screen. The scene of the knight ripping apart the siren in his quest for riches was savage yet mesmerizing and felt somehow inevitable.
Finally someone thinks the same way with the last episode
@@candass5512 I think same way as well lol
@@pilot8220 simp
They saved the best (in the entire series) for last. Every shot was amazing
Swarm didn't learn how to make huge brain from galina, it was able to do that on it's own, absorption implies breeding the new species.
Bad Traveling is the best for me for the execution, but Swarm has the most intriguing concept, about how easy humans can exploit other species with no moral quandaries, but as soon as tables turn, it turns into almost existential dread and body horror
Swarm somehow reminds me of this czcams.com/video/imNtSPM3-r4/video.html
But why does it look like a human or at least similar. We are talking about alien creatures
It captured her and grafted her into it's body in order to learn what motivated her species.
Yeah, since Humans are individuals (probably the most individualistic species in our planet), the interaction with a swarm species would be mutualy intriguing and perplexing!
Other correction: In "The Pulse of the Machine" the body wasn't dead weight, she needed to drag it for the life support as her's was damaged.
Jibaro was a beautiful piece of art from the cgi down to its choreography and yet no dialogue just emotion. it is my favorite from this season
it sucked
I like the part about how the monster in Vaulted Halls Entombed was controlling the people and the girl cut her eyes out because she was haunted by it. But I think it might go even further and imply that the creature's mind controlled them using sight and sound. Which is why she cut off her ears and eyes to avoid being controlled. And the reason she is whispering in the desert is that she is figuratively haunted but still herself.
Yeah, kind of mind blowing he got that ending so wrong.
For Bad Traveling, the selfless ones died within the first scene taking on the crab.
I see why the captain had to lock away his gun!
@@harrygibbons4933 Lmao, u mean he knew his crew was a bunch of wusses
10/10 Would read comment again. Yes yes yes. No one EVER thinks of this kind of thing. Torrin was just the consolation prize winner.
Those crazy fucks jumping at the crab to save the day never asked to draw fucking straws, or shot people in the face to feed to a brooding sea-monster.
A great point to highlight! Thanks for this! Makes me appreciate Bad Travelling more 💕
I don't get it
All episodes were great, but Jibaro was my favorite, I couldn't take my eyes off the screen and I had to watch the episode three more times. Special mention to all the motion-capture actors, specially whoever played the siren, she was enchating in a creepy/cool way.
jibaro felt weird and i kinda liked it
@@joshuagraham2843 i was hooked once I saw the animation of the Siren, when she was in pain after the betrayal, legit felt it.
Totally agree. I like every episode but I was speechless during Ibaro, nearly moved to tears by the end. I took it as a metaphor for us exploiting Earth, our beautiful home. She's on defense, tired of being r worded for wealth, desperately seeking to love us and be loved in return. I could be way off, but that's all i could think about during and afterwards. Such a powerful story
Stopped watching it after 5 minutes.
@@user-zg5ey5xo9i we get it, you're triggered
season 3 was very thought provoking and entertaining, my favorite season so far! thanks for the insight
Great video! My favourite was Jibaro. As soon as I saw it in the trailer, I already knew
Bad Travelling hands down. Even in the direst situation remaining level-headed is the best option. The other shorts were good but Bad Travelling seems like the most realistic that I could relate to in a logical sense.
Jibaro easily takes the top spot for me, followed by Bad traveling and In Vaulted Halls Entombed, most because I’m a sucker for Lovecraftian horror. Jibaro does a fantastic job at conveying so much story without the use of Dialogue. There were also points where I was genuinely uncomfortable watching it.
Yes it was very Lovecraftian!
Yea the first thing I thought was cthulu
@@fourfurrypotatoes I think it was heavily inspired by the Call of Cthulhu short story. Even down to the main character carving out their eyes
It had elements but it really did not capture lovecraftian horror
@@okage6219 it was kinda like Bloodborne
You need to clarify for the third episode, she doesnt just bring along her partners body for fun, her oxygen supply was damaged and she decides to use the oxygen supply of her dead partner so she HAD to take her body with her to survive
She could have just taken the suit or oxygen supply and left the body behind. Not sure why she choose to take the body too.
@@TangoNevada she couldnt take the suit it had a massive hole in the face mask hence how she put the dirt in, and I assume the oxygen supply was purely integral and couldn't be swapped otherwise I'm sure she would
@@djvoid6194 If the face mask had a massive hole in it, which is where you want the oxygen to be, the more reason to leave everything behind except the oxygen supply. Unless she was taking her body for other reasons.
Bad Traveling is probably my favorite episode of the show and short film in general. It's so incredibly good!
What puzzled me about the Swarm was that the researchers knew several of this incredibly ancient hive's slave species once were sentient, technologically advanced creatures. How does that not spell: "RUN AWAY YOU FOOLS!!!".
They both seemed completely oblivious to the potential danger.
The moment I heard them discuss this little fact I realised they were in deep shit...
Exactly the point I went "Fuck nah!"
Hubris.
Arrogance like she said.
People often think they are able to do better because they are smarter.
It helps if you know a bit of backstory from the original text. Afriel's people (Shapers) were in a cold-war situation with the rival Mechanists, who were beating them. Afriel and Galina were out there as kind of a "hail Mary" strategy to find something useful, and stood to gain MAJOR rewards if they found a way to use the Swarm as a competitive advantage for their faction.
Also, they were both gene-modded to be around 200 IQ, and had the accompanying instability and arrogance.
Sterling wrote it in 1982, and for those of us who remember that time, the "take extreme measures to beat the other side" trope is very familiar.
You left out the most chilling lines from the swarm. The first line of the episode on the transport ship was "we will miss your conversation", and at the end when afriel accepts the swarms challenge, the swarm says "good, we would have missed your conversation"
Yes, I noticed that, a truly chilling Full Circle indeed. I also found it interesting that the two explorers talked about and were willing to execute a new form of slavery, considering that they themselves are both black people. I think this episode goes much deeper than most watchers think.
@@RPumpkinQueen Well slavery is still practiced in Africa today. Slavery is as old as human civilization and as long as one person realizes that he can force another person to work for free, slavery will still exist.
Dayum, so the swarm is already owning being outside of the swarm hive. Real chilling.
@@RPumpkinQueen It's not really slavery, the swarm is more like biological robots connected through a hivemind and not thinking creatures with a sense of self awareness. Also he didn't even want to use the swarm itself, he wanted genetic samples so humanity could build their own version of the swarm totally disconnected from the original one.
@@timbusfahrer3172 plenty of people in history justified horrors, such as slavery, by saying that the oppressed 'weren't really people' or 'were better off this way'. It's the hubris of mankind to think that they know whether another being can think or feel.
Bad Travelling was my favorite this season although it felt like it`s missing a big "oh sh*t!" moment at the end the way Beyond the Aquila Rift had in S1, maybe him reaching the island and finding it swarming with crab creatures.
I was fully expecting to see a post credits or final scene of one of the baby crabs washing ashore of Phaiden Island
@@m0n4rch24 omg same
here i have read the most insightful, intelligent and creative comments! it is already a huge achievement, that a series like love,death+robots and also this channel's presentation and interpretations of the episode make people wonder and talk about it in the most civilized and inspiring way i have seen on youtube in a long time! this alone deserves a prize!
thank you so much for that ! all you wonder - and respectful people out there :)
Jibaro is the best episode of season 3. While others touched on the sci Fi element, Jibaro is essentially a folk lore on steroids, a haunting beautifully done work.
In "The Very Pulse Of The Machine", Kivelson's partner is not dead weight. She brought her deceased partner along because she needed her oxygen (Kivelson's oxygen tank got breached in the crash), you can see the tubing connected from her late partner's to hers on frame 4:56 of this video.
Could have taken only the suit instead of the dead weight of the person inside. The time used to take her out and carry the suit would have made the trip much better and maybe survive. The story seems a bit forced to me. Also, she literally killed her by ignoring the limits of the craft and not pulling back as soonas something was wrong.
@@joseale2310 how would she have changed into it?
@@tylerdias8323 Not change into it, just take the suit, without the body.
@@joseale2310 oh I got you but if I understand correctly wasn't the putting of the dirt in her eye and the dragging of the body that created the sparks of electricity that allowed the planet to learn her partner and communicate through her?
@@tylerdias8323 Yeah, that is why I do not like the story, because it is based on a forced and seemingly stupid decision. They could have come up with something else.
The third season was by far the best season
Every episode has me firmly in it's grip but Bad Travelling made me want a feature length and then a whole cinematic universe!
Imagine what a predator of Crabson would be like.
Great video! Here’s a couple names i’d like to add that some characters were very-closely based off:
1. The large creature with eyes closely ressembles Cthulhu.
2. The siren is Suvannamaccha from Thai folklore, which is why everything is so tropical. This ties in nicely with the story of colonialism, because Thailand was never colonized, but still experienced the bloodshed from colonizers.
The Swarm was very reminiscent of The Aquila Rift (which is my favorite of the three seasons). And I know it wasn't this season, and season 2 is usually panned but Snow in the Desert could have been a whole movie that I'd be down to watch. Really, a lot of these stories I wanted to continue on!
I totally agree. The Swarm is my favorite of this season.
Totally similar opinion... Swarm goes with The Aquila Rift.. Aquila Rift is my favourite of all seasons.... It was mind blowing... I searched for the book but I guess it's quite tough to manage a hard copy... Though I downloaded the pdf version and so excited to go through deeper story... That was my kind of story 🖤
Have a good day
The Swarm is part of the Shaper/Machinist universe.
The channel ‘Magnetar’ does a great reading of Beyond the Aquila Rift, with awesome voice acting.
And I suppose we all know/read Frank Schätzing!?
Bad travelling, Jibaro and Mason's Rats were my favourite of the lot. Of those 3, Jibaro left the biggest impression on me, it was just so stunning.
Jibaro made me the most uncomfortable
@@fitfirst4468 indeed i can see that it might be good but i hated everything about it
@@Max-yp1wv Why?
@@SandrockCustom For me it just wasn't a good story. Everything just happened because it needed to happen.
Why where those people there? Why was that siren there? why is she covered in gold? why does she try to kill all those people? Why does she engage with the guy? Why does the siren not die after being stripped and tossed? Why does she turn the river to blood? why does the blood river give the guy hearing?
a good story can have mystery, or leave things unexplained. But having so many unknown factors, just makes this short a visual thing. Not a story. I would much rather see a good story with mediocre animation, than a non existing story with good animation.
@@monkeymode5652 I'm picking up what you're putting down, thank you ^ ^
(Edit) Come to think of it... this is how I felt about "Swarm"
Excellent break down! Thanks for making this.
The shot of Jibaro at the bottom of the lake is extremely unique, never thought I’d see a shot like that anywhere other than national geographic
I loved the Rat one, it was much more "human" as you touched on and painted a positive outlook for us mere "Meat Sacks"
It also has some badass action
Bad traveling an Jibaro….jibaro really did it for me. I was slack jawed the whole time. It was intense. Also that mini living dead 🤣❤️🔥
When the nuclear plant basically exploded I thought “I could see us getting into that type of situation”😭😭
I cried so much with the Jíbaro ending
@@krystalzayas4304 Yeah I definitely didn’t expect to get emotional😭
@@edithserafina1002 most definitely!
Those were the best ones out of the whole season.
"The Very Pulse of the Machine" and "Bad Travelling" are among my top three of this season in no particular order. "Jibaro" is something else. Sometimes the more realistic animations lack of good stories or just don't dare to explore different aesthetics besides regular sci-fi. Jibaro is not only unique but also is magnificent, and scary, and compelling, and beautiful to see, all at the same time. One of the best shorts of the whole series!
The very pulse of the machine was BEAUTIFULLY animated, but I didn't understand it one bit. Did she die? Did she become the planet? Was the partner apart of the planet? I was mad confused but the visuals especially when she jumped in was so alluring.
The very pulse of the machine was fucking awesome.
Bad Traveling is my favorite in the entire series thus far! And thanks for this run down. However, just to point out.. in In The Very Pulse of the Machine. If I'm not mistaken she sent out an SOS to the orbiter and the response she got was that the message wouldn't go out immediately, so at the end the transmission from IO was the delayed message? And in essence she probably hallucinated all the events based on her reading the book on poems.
My favorite is also Jibaro but mainly because of the art and cgi (or whatever they use to make it). The characters have cartoon-ish look but the texture and details are so lifelike. I haven't looked it up but I'm gonna assume they are the same studio who made The Witness from previous season? really curious what kind of technology do they use
The witness came to mind for me as well. Same director.
Yeah, this mixture is the same as the witness, and its Alberto Mielgo the mastermind behind this style, wild and chaotic. The most I liked was the siren concept, I loved it.
I kept thinking it was motion capture but for the witness they claimed it wasn’t.
Yeah they do all freehand concept sketches and animation without capture. Though they do use figures in this case to dance (based on the credits) as a reference maybe. I want to see their process hopefully soon.
Yah Alberto was also the first art director for spiderverse . His pinkmantv team also did a cool short for watchdogs, Tipping Point (check it out) and they made a short movie Windshield Wiper which just won an Oscar. Insane team
Unpopular opinion but "The Very Pulse of the Machine" might've taken the top spot for me. Fantastic animation, trippy sequences, great voice actresses and a fairly unique twist. "Bad Travelling" and "Kill Team Kill" are also up there for me.
Kill team kill was hilarious.
Yeah kill team kill was just so fun, loved the art style.
Agreed i honestly was slightly emotional over the visuals and ethereal soundtrack, Beautiful. Kill team Kill was fantastic. I actually loved them all but those two you mentioned stood out.
I like to think "the very pulse of the machine" episode as a cosmic horror episode. Like, pair the last line of the episode with the rest of it and i think it implies that Io is trying to assimilate as much info or organic beings into itself with or through technology, as seen by its... methods... of comms
Idk tho, its just a theory, a gay theory!
The Very Pulse of the Machine was really beautiful
The pulse of the machine was defs my fav. It was such an epid concept and as you mentioned, it could have all been a hallucination but the story telling was just brilliant
My new favorites are now:
-Sonnie's Edge
-Bad Travelling
-Ice
Honourable mention to Zima Blue
Damn we have really different taste's
Mine are
Aquila Rift
Swarm
Bad traveling
Winter war .
This season was dark, but so good
Jibaro was a work of art and honestly felt like the future of storytelling in a way.. fucking mindblowing.. i liked every single episode this season such a step up from season 2..
yeah, I was a little disappointed with the drop in quality in Season 2, there are a couple of great ones, but I think all of Seaon 3 is better than any in 2, but nowhere near as good as the time loop murders
I swearrr I wasn’t impressed from season 2 but this 3 got me
Wow, what an amazing season! Really impressive collection. Night of the Mini Dead blew me away. What an incredible work of art that was!! Bravo to all creators. 👏👏👏
Jibaro was just so artfully done and powerfully permed.
I liked them all this season, honestly. But what threw me was that "Jibaro" is CG. It, to me anyway, looked extremely photorealistic and life-like. I was blown away by it. I mean, I did not let that get in the way of the mostly visual storytelling but whoever produced and animated it went above and beyond.
When I watched it seemed like they superimposed the CG on the actors, honesty kinda went into uncanny valley. The entire episode wasn't in my taste seemed to try to much on conveying its message and deepness and being different.
@@violetchicken7542 Thank you. I've been trying to think of a way to describe the visuals in that one, and "superimposed the CG on the actors" is a great way to put it. Jibaro seemed less "animated" and more live action + camera trickery.
This was produced by the same director and team as "Witness" from Season 1. He was also the art director for Spiderverse. Also his team famously does NOT use motion capture. The entirety of Jibaro, while appearing to be MoCap is in fact pure animation. Technically its a marvel and a masterclass in storytelling.
@@ericepperson8409 his work is like a drug. i need more of it asap
@@ericepperson8409 Oh, makes sense then. Bit the facial expressions in the Siren one is totally uncanny valley. I mean, it added to it nicely by making me feel quite unsettled and uncomfortable. Blood and guts doesn't do that. But facial expressions like that sure as well does. 😆
The creature in 'Entomed is definitely Cthulu. My favorite this season is The Swarm. The question that I believe it posed fascinated me. Is intelligence a winning trait for the success/survival of a species or is it not? The fact that the Swarm created an intelligent and conscious caste form as a reflex action was so dope.
no ide how he could have missed this, and the reason about her eyes in the end is most likely she went insane they say that you go insane just from looking at Cthulu its just too much for our brains to handle.
The creature also takes on the appearance of a human brain, with left and right hemispheres either side of the avatar. Possibly indicating how out of depth humanity would be up against such a force when compared to the size of an average human brain. 9:46
What doesn't seem to be mentioned in regards to The Swarm, is that the closing sentence of the creature is that it looks forward to the conversations it will have with the doctor, while during the opening scene the other alien species said that it would miss the conversations. I'm still not sure whether this was meant to symbolically tie the first scene with the last or that this implies that this alien species was also part of the swarm.
@@adrianv.m.2903 Oddly, that reminded me of the line from "Quigley Down Under" where he says "Just because I never had much use for it, don't mean I don't know HOW to use it". Except in this case, it's intelligence instead of a revolver.
@@hedicha I had the opinion that she actually "won", because if she hadn't then the creature would have been freed.
But she robbed herself of both her sight and hearing when she felt herself slipping away.
She denied the creature its new thrall, and ended its machinations.
For all its power and influence, through self sacrifice she persevered and beat it, because to the creature to still be entombed is a loss.
Maybe that's too optimistic a take, but it's the one I cling to
I think this was pretty much a well done season and hope they keep making more of these with more meaningful messages
Hands down my favourite show. I LOOOVE it... Stories you have to think about. Stories with beginnings, middles, aaaand shock horror, actual endings. Brief moments of joy. You can see the passion that goes into every episode. Night of the Mini Dead was a highlight
Great video. “In Halls”- I think the soldier cut her own ears/eyes off in order to prevent the mind control. I like to think she saved the world.
yeah this is what I thought too
Or tried, anyway. If she gets the generals to believe her, a task force will be sent, followed by scientists and low-level politicians. SOMEBODY will free the monster.
If she's locked up as a nutcase, there's always the risk that more locals will find the cave and free it.
Ironically, it's possible that the best thing for the world would be if she dies in the desert.
That makes the most sense. She resisted the mind control, and then cut out her own eyes and pierced her own ears to prevent Cthulhu (it's Cthulhu, let's face it) from eventually managing to break through to her and making her release him. Still, her mind was damaged by the assault and she just keeps whispering in the language of the Old Ones.
Why did her partner fall under the influence of the creature and she didn't?
@@sorabhutube Remember when he shot those guys in the back when they were trying to find a way out? That's why... dude was half mad already.
I think your theory on Enclosed tombs missed a lot. She had her eyes AND ears cut out, so my assumption was that in order to resist the creatures call to release it, she cut out her eyes and ears, sacrificing herself to keep the creature contained.
With her eyes and ears cut out I think she succeeded not releasing the monster but still got mind controlled in the process which is why she’s speaking that way and is still alive. But this one can still be left open to interpretation.
I wonder if the images were true or fake. Also, I want to know who locked that beast down there. It seems very powerful.
@@hugon6717 that’s the beauty of it. We are left to some imagination. That tomb honestly reminded me so much of a Mordor from Lotr.
@@hugon6717 the runes make me think Norse, but the point of it probably is something that was old before we were formed.
Yea that was my thought as well. It made her half crazy (hence why she's muttering the alien language running through the desert). I agree that she "sacrificed" herself to save humanity but it also drove her insane in the process
I'm just mind blown more about how amazing the 3d animation was done its freaking terrific!!!
Awesome breakdown! Jibaro had the same effect on me, amazing story telling.
Bad Traveling was my favorite! I hope they will make a Season 4! Fingers crossed! 🤞
the main character is not a villain or a hero
his crewmates are traitors and crab monster
so he gets a good ending
killing his own crewmates and the crab monster
he’s not a bad guy he saved the island prevent
but if he was a monster he would let the crab monster kill every people on the island so he may be a monster but he’s a hero
It had the best "good" ending of all imho
finger crossed lol.
why??

The moment I saw the golden sorceress, I knew "Jibaro" would be my most favorite. Her body movements and unconventional appearance are so... alluring. Even the story did it for me. Like many others mentioned, it's the lack of dialogue that did justice for this episode. We get to see and "feel" the characters, not just hear. Overall, this season was superb!
So simping got it
@@thezerowulf2046 hahaha word. people praising this episode for storytelling or themes when it's just a "you go girl" episode. fuckin stupid
Gold in the lake could be a reference to El Dorado because natives would dump gold in lakes as a ritual type of thing it was mistranslation that lead to people thinking it was a place not a ritual
I had to keep reminding myself that Jibaro was animated coz omfg that's insane realism.
Jibaro was my fave to got to say.... skipped right to it to hear about what others thought,. spot on. thank you for the time.
For me it was "In Vaulted Halls Entombed", I'm a massive fan of H.P. Lovecraft and this short was heavily influenced by Cthulhu, the monster was almost a dead ringer.
Yeah it was definitely Cthulhu.
Agreed. This season was fantastic.
Mine too, though I wish they focused more time on Cthulu than the tomb protectors which were the kittle crabs
Nah, Cthulhu is in R'lyah which is sunken in the ocean and even though deserts were pnce ocean all his prophets refer to the sunken part as present in whatever story
While “Jabiro” is a fantastic self contained visual and audible story, “Bad Travelling” is my favorite of the entire series and I would pay good money to watch a feature film about Torrin and more of his adventures and cunning problem solving.
Jibaro is my absolute favorite of all love death robot. the lake seemed to be the heart of the forest. great short film
I took acid and watched the entire season and the last ep has been on my mind for 2 weeks now
Jibaro is hands down my all time favorite episode of all.
Edit: I also loved that the episode has no dialogue. Show and don’t tell is always amazing
Absolutely!!!
In vaulted halls entombed: 13:34 "She scooped out her eyes and cut off her ears" because she didnt want to hear or see the incoming future. But we still can see, it did not work out for her, she still being possessed by the chad alien.
creepy as hell.
Nah i think she did that to fight against the elder ones manipulation. If she freed it she wouldn't have been able to get out of the tomb.
I think it’s ambiguous and you can read it either way but I tend to think she mutilated herself to resist the monsters control and escape.
@@user-zg5ey5xo9i I agree with you. She blinded herself to avoid being controlled by the monster, which is believe is Cthulhu, and the alien noises she makes is her losing her mind.
@@user-zg5ey5xo9i but how did she escape the millions of killer robot bugs without any eyesight or weapons
Bad traveling was the best for me, the story is sooo deep, I watched it many times already, i feel like it deserves a movie or a series
I really dig to this series. The different artsyles with their unique stories in their own world. It's like teleworking to one location to another witnessing a story.
The Siren in Jibaro is what Enchantress from the first Suicide Squad should have been.
Yes!
In my fantasy They probably come from the same magic dimensional realm....but different in caste. One being a techno shaman superior from an advanced species while the other being a rural gypsy.
No they should have used your mom as Enchantress.
Thank you 👏👏👏
My understanding of Bad Travelling's ending is that he understood he wouldn't kill the crab, but knew it would kill it's offspring (I believe at one point the crab says "my shell will protect me" and Torrin says "it's not for you"?) which likely saved the town until it was able to breed again.
The crab said the gun wouldn't hurt it cause she'll protect, he then replies its (the gun) isn't for you. It's for the oil. The crab will likely die since it couldn't get out if the fire and into the water.
@@wittyjoker4631 @benasl I had the same thought too.. but after I re-watched it I understood he talks about shooting the oil, and not about killing only the offspring
Yeah the crab meant it was protected from the weapon, not the oil. If the crab was smart enough to understand he was about to set the ship on fire Torrin’s plan wouldn’t have worked and it would’ve rushed out and ate him before he could’ve set the ship on fire.
Took me a moment to interpret that as well tbh
If you doubt then try putting crab in the fire and watch if shell protects
I mean, it's not a crab, it's a mighty thanopod!
