#invaderzim #reaction #nickolodeon - Zábava
The fact people are recognizing Horvitz's voice for Moxxie first is so fucking bizarre, Invader Zim is THE Horvitz role, it's the thing that made Vivzie want him for Helluva Boss in the first place, Moxxie himself is just a modified version of Zim's character with the same general character design shape.
TRUE! There was some invader clip uploaded onto tiktok and a majority of the comments were saying stuff like “the guy wearing pink sounds like moxxie” it infuriates me
I recognize him from Kaos from Skylanders
gotta say the cgi in this show looks ridiculously good for its time
Yup, and it was unfortunately one of the main reasons why the show was cancelled, the budget was too big for Nickelodeon to justify paying for it. Then they started to broadcast Invader Zim at weird hours to slowly kill it off and get it cancelled. There were also some controversies here and there with the show because it was so dark, but the budget for it was the main reason it was discontinued.
@@gothicMCRgirlmakes me wonder if there was a way for them to manage there budget better
@@gothicMCRgirlI love the creators comic book. Jonny the Homicidal Maniac
@@xavierjuno4572 The problem with that is that Nickelodeon was being really ruthless to shows that were not pulling in the same numbers as SpongeBob was (SpongeBob was essentially Nickelodeon’s measuring stick for success). Invader Zim was very successful and popular, but when the views and ratings stopped reaching the threshold that Nickelodeon demanded of it, it got canned. Many other good shows suffered the same fate as well. So I fear that even if the budget hadn’t been particularly bloated with Invader Zim, it would’ve eventually died off anyway because it was nowhere near as watched as SpongeBob.
@@Nastyn1nja808 They’re really good and really funny. A lot of people can’t get past the edgy, 90’s goth aesthetic, but I think they’re pretty enjoyable. People think the comics are a glorification of gore and 90’s apathy, but it’s honestly the opposite. The comics MAKE FUN of the entire sub-culture and the hypocritical way of thinking of these people that think they’re being unique and different, but really are still a bunch of sheep.
The creature in the jar at the beginning of Dark Harvest is Filler Bunny, a character from Jhonen Vasquez's earlier works. Filler Bunny exists only to fill space and his suffering is eternal.
It does give off a Helluva Boss style because Viv’s artstyle was inspired by this show. And yes, Zim is voice by Richard Horvitz, who also voiced Moxxie
Her style looks nothing like this show
@@MesserMusic it was inspiration
@@unforeseeable2.058
Don't get me started on that. Like Vivzie I too was influenced by Invader Zim. While working on my comic series that renovated from old Invader Zim fan comics I drew as a teenager, I found out Viv was a fan of Zim. So when I heard Moxxie's voice, I was a tad jealous that she got Horvitz to work for her.
But in reality it just gives me a small goal to work towards.
@@MesserMusicyeah huh
ZIM ran so Moxxie could crawl
Richard horowitz was a very prominent voice actor in the late 90s and early 2000s. Invader Zim and Grim adventures of Billy and Mandy being his most well known roles
Zim's voice is so iconic, when I hear it all I hear is either Zim or Kaos from Skylander.
Pox from Destroy All Humans as well
@@puddin_hun1179so your a man of culture as well?
And Billy too!
My favorite joke in the entire series
Dib: Is that part of your skin condition Zim? No ears?
Zim (sadly): yes...
It’s bc of this show that I LOVE Richard horvitz as a voice actor!! I wouldn’t care for moxxie’s voice nearly as much as I do if not for invader zim 🤣
Check out the Psychonauts games! The protagonist Raz is Richard Horvitz's BEST performance besides Zim!
That and Daggit from Angry Beavers! That show was my introduction to Richard. 😊
Yeah, also when he did Kaos, it's literally Zim xD
@@Mashudes Don't forget the game Destroy All Humans!
@@Mashudesand the second game to Psychonauts has Gir's voice actor voicing a small sidekick gimmick character for the Invader Zim reference
This show DEFINED my tastes in dark and surreal comedy.
The creator of Steven Universe use to write Invader Zim fan-fics and fan art back in they day. The Tallest were the inspiration for The Diamonds.
"We watch UNHINGED Invader Zim episodes"
_Do you have _*_any idea_*_ how little that narrows it down?_
It seems pretty clear that Invader Zim was a great inspiration for Vivziepop's style, especially when looking at the imps in Helluva Boss
Invader Zim was so unique and popular, a lot of showrunnners took inspiration from it in one form or another, I'm pretty sure, though it's not always as obvious as it is with Helluva Boss
btw, I'd also recommend you guys to check out Wander Over Yonder at some point if you can
I'm pretty sure that show also influenced Vivziepop's style on Hazbin Hotel and Helluva Boss about as much as Invader Zim did and it's just such a great watch, it's hilarious
Oh I am so 1+ the Wonder Over Yonder reactions, I’d absolutely love these guys reacting to this show! Also I never once connected Vivziepop’s Imps to Irkens and I’ve never been so disappointed in myself
YES YES WANDER OVER YONDER
- Zim is indeed voiced by Moxie’s voice actor Richard Horivitz who also voices Billy (Billy & Mandy), Grey Matter (Ben 10), many more while Gir is voiced by Rosearik Rikki Simons
- The whole using germs 🦠 killing aliens is a reference to War of the Worlds🛸
Invader Zim was designed and drawn by Jhonen Vasquez, the author of the comic book series Johnny the Homicidal Maniac.
I don't know who read that comic book and thought it would be great for him to make a kids show but God bless that person
I don't remember her name, but a Nick executive was a fan of Squee.
@chriskoloski32
Jhonen got to create Invader Zim because of his comic series "Squee" which was a spin-off of Johnny The Homicidal Maniac.
My most favorite show of all time. It's this insane and unhinged humor and story telling that has stayed with me forever. I hope the y watch the entire series.
38:35 Please, let me clarify. This was not on Nickelodeon. This was Nicktoons, the Nickelodeon reject cartoons: The Ren & Stimpy Show, Catdog, Angry Beavers, Catscratch, Avatar, The Mighty Bee, Ah! Real Monsters, Three Delivery, KABLAM!, and so on.
These were all HUUUGE staples of my childhood.
Invader Zim was SO unhinged this will be interesting
Its so weird hearing yall say "Oh is that moxxie from helluva boss?" When its usually "Oh is that Zim from Invader Zim?"
25:33 Fun Fact: That rabbit in the jar is special!!. It's a reference to the comic books of the shows creator (Jhonen Vasquez). It's name is "Filler Bunny" and he was created after his publisher decided to publish his first series compilation. In the books, there was a page for ads and those ads were taken out for the compilation which, in turn, left roughly 8 pages of blank space. Those spaces were "filled" by short stories involving that little pink rabbit. The stories were ALWAYS something horrific.
Invader zim was so goated I loved dark cartoons as a kid and this was definitely one
I love this show. I discovered it when I worked at blockbuster back in the day 2007-2009 right until they closed. The writing is so good and the humor is really clever.
Oh I am DELIGHTED that you're watching Invader Zim. I love this wacky and dark show. It's hysterical and I love the characters.
the darkness and weirdness of Invader Zim makes a lot more sense when you know that the creator was previously known for a comic series called Johnny The Homicidal Maniac, about a guy named Johnny (or Nny) who oscillates wildly between suicidal depression and homicidal rage at the drop of a hat. Extremely violent, gory, darkly humorous, and also very sad and even philosophical at times. It spoke to the hearts of a lot of angry, depressed teenagers.
The hilarious part is that Nickelodeon really thought they could keep Jhonen Vasquez under control. He kept pushing the show darker and darker and they wouldn't let him do it, but he snuck quite a lot past them. There's a lot of off-screen deaths and mutilations, an instance of a single frame flash of gir covered in blood (sounds like a creepypasta, but it's real), and a child in an orange shirt named "Nick" being killed in retaliation for having to sanitize so much. Some of the bizarre non sequiturs (both visually and in dialogue) are basically red flags that a bit was cut and rewritten.
I still remember the first time I saw this show, when the first episode came on following something else my brother was watching while I was in the room. I took one look at the art style and said "that looks so much like Johnny the Homicidal Maniac it has to be a deliberate rip off." and then there Vasquez was in the opening credits, leading to me shouting "NICKELODEON GAVE JHONEN VASQUEZ A TV SHOW?!?!?!" and startling the dog so much she fell off the chair.
You guys unearthing all these classic cartoons is seriously taking me back to my late-night rerun days. 🤩 If you're looking for suggestions at all, Disney Channel used to have a show with a vibe I'd associate to this called Zombie Hotel.
(If anyone else knows this show, we besties now.)
Moxie is also voiced by Zim
Invader Zim: you viewers dare manipulate me? PREPARE yourselves for DESTRUCTION!
Watching unhinged Invader Zim episodes, so you’re saying you’re watching the entire series
Gir: there’s pancakes in these.
Zim: ….YOU’RE LYING!!!
Invader Zim was and still is one of my favorite childhood cartoons! Everything about it was so different from other cartoons within the Nicktoons lineup at the time. Especially given the dark humor of it and the fact that it was about alien was another reason why I loved it so much. Now you guys gotta see Enter the Florpus also the Grim adventure of Billy & Mandy.
Fun fact Mark Hammel was considered for voicing Zim, but He was rejected for Richard Horvitz, There are recordings of it on youtube.
I love how with the Halloween episode, we go straight-up Hellraiser/Silent Hill/Event Horizon.
It's also funny how Dib's first thought is to go to the person he's been antagonizing the whole time, and Zim basically tells him to **** off.😂
39:17 I'm the opposite... I'm waiting for Moxie to scream I'll DESTROY YOU... AND YOU... AND YOU... AND YOUUUUUU
They're hired assassins... it's gonna happen eventually lol
It's nice to see school kids in a TV show sticking up for a new student for once, even if we know that Dil's right.😅
Yes zim’s voice is moxxie’s voice they share the same actor lol
17:05 yes... The aliens will land on the white house lawn, open a window, sneeze, then come back in 10 years when we all died.
That's really how the V that shall not be named started.
As a teacher, I’ve seen students do anything to get out of skool…
PLEASE MORE ZIM!!!
Zim is incredible
Check out The Invader Zim Movie too
Zim's actor also plays Grey Matter in Ben 10
episode 8 is probably the darkest episode, really recommend it
Theres a theory that dibs dad, the scientist is actually a tallest
IT BEGINS!!!
Boom: "Does Dib have a crush on Zim?"
Me: You do not want to go that route, my guy... or you could, whatever floats your boat XD
Invader Zim gives me life
The animation is INSANE for 2001
I love how these guys picked up on the ZADR vibes almost immediately.
WE DID IT! WE HAVE 4 MORE PEOPLE ON THE SHIP! :D
Wtf
@@hotgirlbummer2004real
Why do people like this ship
@@trashyCorn.12 fr
I think it’s pretty funny that Miss Bitters is the original voice actor for Anastasia from Cinderella.
She was smurfette too, which is the polar opposite of Ms bitters.
@@paulagoeringer9466 That’s pretty funny too. I didn’t know that.
My favorite show to watch growing up. Thank you hahaha
Ok I have to make the joke
Who wore the meat outfit better?: Invader Zim? Or Lady Gaga?
XD That's literally all I could think when I saw Zim walk in covered in meat!
Gir is a gift to humanity
Yes!! Inavader zim!! I also recommend the cartoon Dan vs. it’s got great humor and is a smart show but also ridiculous.
Gir is top 5 tv show sidekicks ever
i love the part when he punches and a lightning bolt comes out
And this is just what they let Jhonen Vasquez get away with.
PLEASE watch the whole thing
To be fair when the colonists gave the Indians blankets... they didn't know germs existed yet.
They were just like... We dont need these blankets cause half our people died... trade for food.
Would love to see more of this series, and then the movie
between this an courage the cowardly dog, i have no doubt of why i love horror movies
I love Invader Zim, had no idea you guys were covering it. If nobody's said it, Melissa Fahn was the voice of Gaz, she was also Edward in Cowboy Bebop's dub.
I never gotten a chance to watch invader Zim until it aired reruns on Nicktoons network but THANK GOD I did not watch dark harvest as a kid😅. Zim still hold up for me being Iconic as one of the most impactful dark sci-fi shows on a kids network channel.
the netflix movie was so good too
I really wanna see you guys react to the rest of the series. Especially the last episode the Christmas episode.
14:31 Someone would have to be smart enough to add 1+1 other than Dib or his oblivious dad
You boys just made me think of the perfect Vacation drinking game.
Draw cards with a choice of two places to check with a blacklight, Like check the pillow or take a shot... Check the shower or drink beer...
Easy way to relax after finding out you're surrounded by dead S
OMG THIS IS MY FAVORITE SHOW EVER, please you guy’s should watch more of it!
The Halloween episode was crazy. Which is weird and confusing. You'd like it.
I know it’s in this very video…
This is for sure one of my favorite shows ever. Such a hilarious contrast to most of the other shows nickelodeon aired in the early 2000s.
The episode where zim steals everybodys organs was wild as hell.
Or when zim makes a friend but the friend turns out to be too creepy and clingy so zim has his eyes removed and replaced with some kind of robotic eyes he made that allows him to issue orders to the boy.
Dark shit, amazing show. I can't believe some of this made it onto a kids network but given the true nature of Disney, nickelodeon, and a decent portion of America's population, I can't say I'm surprised in the least bit.
'we watched unhinged invader zim episodes'
aren't all episodes unhinged? lmao
I have actually met the voice actor of Zim (Richard Horvitz) 3 times and he is so cool!!!!
I love Invader Zim. It was one of my fave shows when I was younger and it still is. I enjoy Richard Horvitz’s voice. He’s one of the reasons why I love Moxxie so much. Love Zim so much! Gir is one of my fave characters too. I can somewhat imitate his voice.
"is he.. crazy or something?"
How do you have a title like that without showing the piggy episode?
This show was insane! One of my favorites!
I've only seen part of the beginning of the pilot online and stopped watching.
But now I can finally watch the rest of the episodes.
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE WATCH THE NETFLIX INVADER ZIM MOVIE THAT CAME OUT A FEW YEARS AGO!!!!!!
I'd love to see a reaction to the Invader Zim movie, Enter the Florpus
Zim wore a meat gown way before Lady Gaga.
I love how pocket change gave gir emotions
lolz
I love ur channel
Most of me’s glad I watched this show as a little kid, that last 6% is still traumatized
This show inspired me to contenue drawing when i was a kid now its proof where my dark sense of humor and style come from XD
Zims vocie actor aslo plays billy from the grim adventures of billy and mandy
Loved this show I laughed the whole time you guys we’re watching it 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Dib's head opening up reminds me of Naota from Fooly Cooly
26:11 WE DID IT QUEERS! WE GOT 4 MORE PEOPLE ON THE SHIP! ZaDr 4 EVER!
18:44 look at that, its planet Amazon
This was my fucking childhood, dude. I still have all the DVDs
I like how Hman has slowly become the punching bag of the group
I kinda feel bad for bro tbh he ain't done nothing wrong
As someone ~2m tall I do feel middle manage vibes.
And you didn't even see the Room with a Moose!
Glad youre reacting to Invader Zim and seeing what all the Hot Topic kids are going on about, lol
8:26-8:28 Thats kinda the point. Those GiR hoodies at Hot Topic dont sell themselves, ya know!
26:10-26:11 Thats what the shipping side of the fandom, thinks
I love this mental show so much, and the movie that Netflix released like 15 years later was actually so good too! But gotta say Dark Harvest freaked me the f out as a kid, and the pimple one I couldn't watch
Please continue watching Invader Zim, guys!
Did u just call me... Billy?
Obviously Billy
I can't wait for you guys to meet Tak, she's my favorite character that isn't Gir
(seeing the video title) I'm not sure that that narrows it down at all. The whole show from start to finish was wonderfully unhinged.
To make room for the Cupcake!
This show was way before helluva boss. I think that's where Viz got her inspiration for it
2:58 cyborgs maybe? (Well, technically all of them are cyborgs , but the tallest may have removed their limbs to add augments in its place)
