00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:03,940
This went beyond my wildest dreams. Thank you for making it trio, Neil.

2
00:00:13,080 --> 00:00:18,420
Hello and welcome to We Can't Rewind, We've Gone Too Far, a podcast where a Scotsman, an Irishman,

3
00:00:18,540 --> 00:00:22,500
and a Bulgarian discuss the worst, silliest, and weirdest as fuck music videos.

4
00:00:22,920 --> 00:00:23,540
Hi, I'm Nelly.

5
00:00:23,900 --> 00:00:24,220
Hi, I'm Dave.

6
00:00:24,360 --> 00:00:24,960
Hi, I'm Neil.

7
00:00:25,260 --> 00:00:31,220
During this podcast, it didn't take us long to realize that the 90s were a dark, dark place for music videos.

8
00:00:31,880 --> 00:00:37,580
And nothing made it grimmer than shitty CGI and that unmistakable horrible Eurotechno beat,

9
00:00:37,960 --> 00:00:42,360
mixed up with shitty autotune and earworm lyrics that make you want to rip your head off.

10
00:00:42,700 --> 00:00:45,860
Anyway, here's Blue WD by iPhone65.

11
00:00:46,580 --> 00:00:48,020
This week, we're going for the jugular.

12
00:00:48,180 --> 00:00:49,500
Right in the jugular.

13
00:00:50,060 --> 00:00:51,620
I wonder what color are the blue guys bleed.

14
00:00:51,740 --> 00:00:51,820
Oh?

15
00:00:51,980 --> 00:00:58,940
Yo, listen up, here's the story about a little guy that lives in a blue world.

16
00:00:59,400 --> 00:01:03,940
And all day and all night and everything he sees is just blue.

17
00:01:04,320 --> 00:01:07,060
Like him inside and outside.

18
00:01:07,420 --> 00:01:12,140
Blue his house with a blue little window and a blue corvette.

19
00:01:12,520 --> 00:01:17,860
And everything is blue for him and his self and everybody around.

20
00:01:17,920 --> 00:01:21,120
Cause he ain't got nobody to listen

21
00:01:21,840 --> 00:01:24,760
I tried to sort of word this like a song

22
00:01:24,980 --> 00:01:26,660
So don't laugh because it'll put me off

23
00:01:27,240 --> 00:01:31,000
That was the point, thank you for getting the point when I was writing it

24
00:01:31,060 --> 00:01:35,220
So Dave, if you can put the backing track to this

25
00:01:35,480 --> 00:01:36,140
I'll try

26
00:01:36,440 --> 00:01:38,940
Yo, listen up, here's a story

27
00:01:39,430 --> 00:01:44,819
About some Italian guys that lived in the impossible world

28
00:01:44,840 --> 00:01:46,320
of the late 90s

29
00:01:46,620 --> 00:01:47,820
Italian techno

30
00:01:48,380 --> 00:01:48,940
when everything

31
00:01:49,660 --> 00:01:50,140
was so

32
00:01:50,580 --> 00:01:50,980
possible

33
00:01:51,500 --> 00:01:51,600
possible

34
00:01:52,220 --> 00:01:52,400
possible

35
00:01:53,520 --> 00:01:54,400
wow you were in for that

36
00:01:54,500 --> 00:01:55,740
the middle bit was a bit

37
00:01:56,280 --> 00:01:56,940
a bit shite

38
00:01:56,980 --> 00:01:57,580
but you know what

39
00:01:57,600 --> 00:01:58,440
that could pass

40
00:01:59,680 --> 00:02:00,420
this was

41
00:02:00,940 --> 00:02:02,860
this went beyond my wildest dreams

42
00:02:03,100 --> 00:02:03,760
thank you for making

43
00:02:04,100 --> 00:02:04,660
trio Neil

44
00:02:04,900 --> 00:02:06,460
I saw Nellie put that in the document

45
00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:07,960
before she put Neil above it

46
00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:08,460
and I was like

47
00:02:08,479 --> 00:02:09,360
I'm not doing that

48
00:02:12,320 --> 00:02:12,720
congratulations

49
00:02:13,160 --> 00:02:14,279
your bravery has been noted

50
00:02:14,980 --> 00:02:15,480
It's fair.

51
00:02:15,840 --> 00:02:20,880
The video was released in 1999 by Blisco Media, a computer graphics division of Blis Corporation.

52
00:02:21,460 --> 00:02:25,160
It's always an amazing start to find out that the music video was directed by a corporation.

53
00:02:25,920 --> 00:02:27,640
After all, they do make the best music videos.

54
00:02:28,020 --> 00:02:31,900
Former employees of the company who worked on the video recalled brainstorming sessions

55
00:02:32,220 --> 00:02:36,600
they were a team full of sci-fi and gaming fans, naming Blade Runner and Star Wars as sources

56
00:02:36,760 --> 00:02:37,260
of inspiration.

57
00:02:37,780 --> 00:02:39,580
Thoughts and prayers for Ridley Scott and George Lucas.

58
00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:43,100
But thankfully for Eiffel 65, Bliscorp had their backs.

59
00:02:43,600 --> 00:02:47,560
The video was listed on NME's 50 worst music videos ever, and I do wonder why.

60
00:02:48,060 --> 00:02:51,200
The video was aged like a fine wine. Shame the wine was on a two for one offer.

61
00:02:51,380 --> 00:02:56,020
It's another CGI fest this week, but instead of Bulgarian Dungeons and Dragons, it's an

62
00:02:56,090 --> 00:03:00,300
Italian space opera. We open with the band being observed by some strange blue aliens

63
00:03:00,410 --> 00:03:04,240
from a distant planet. They proceed to abduct the lead singer and deposit him on stage to

64
00:03:04,440 --> 00:03:08,140
perform a gig for the party-loving aliens. Meanwhile, the rest of the band give chase

65
00:03:08,210 --> 00:03:12,079
in their very own spaceship, land on the alien mothership and proceed to violently murder

66
00:03:12,100 --> 00:03:16,320
their way through the alien guards in the style of a playstation one action game shenanigans ensue

67
00:03:16,440 --> 00:03:20,640
and the band manages to recover the lead singer but as they leave the aliens put a big sign up

68
00:03:20,700 --> 00:03:24,720
declaring please come back and the band returns to put on a gig for them which begs the questions

69
00:03:25,280 --> 00:03:28,480
why can't we all get along and why didn't they just phone their agent did you actually think they

70
00:03:28,500 --> 00:03:33,460
had an agent according to the the behind the scenes stuff they didn't really seemed to me like it was

71
00:03:33,540 --> 00:03:40,299
kind of like a art collective thing they were in um art in about five quads yeah a techno

72
00:03:40,640 --> 00:03:41,020
collective

73
00:03:42,220 --> 00:03:44,320
the best kind of collective in the 90s

74
00:03:44,480 --> 00:03:46,000
so first question who is Don?

75
00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:47,320
who is Don?

76
00:03:47,600 --> 00:03:49,900
I didn't really get this bit in the notes

77
00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:51,340
where does it mention Don?

78
00:03:51,620 --> 00:03:53,840
I don't know I didn't write this

79
00:03:54,100 --> 00:03:55,080
I thought you wrote this

80
00:03:55,180 --> 00:03:55,940
I didn't write it

81
00:03:56,020 --> 00:03:57,700
no I don't know where that's from

82
00:03:59,960 --> 00:04:01,660
is that from last week's show?

83
00:04:01,900 --> 00:04:04,100
could it be who is Donnie and Monchelle?

84
00:04:04,260 --> 00:04:04,960
maybe but

85
00:04:05,260 --> 00:04:07,400
I don't know where is Don?

86
00:04:08,500 --> 00:04:10,280
I thought you wrote it in this picture

87
00:04:10,300 --> 00:04:12,060
like 10 minutes or 2 minutes

88
00:04:12,360 --> 00:04:13,820
you're trying to find a place to

89
00:04:13,820 --> 00:04:13,960
Don

90
00:04:14,420 --> 00:04:15,760
we've checked that off the list

91
00:04:15,940 --> 00:04:16,500
let's move on

92
00:04:17,060 --> 00:04:17,220
yes

93
00:04:17,600 --> 00:04:17,880
right

94
00:04:18,560 --> 00:04:19,420
so Don is

95
00:04:19,900 --> 00:04:20,400
currently missing

96
00:04:20,859 --> 00:04:21,100
and

97
00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:23,760
we don't talk about Don

98
00:04:23,980 --> 00:04:24,240
no

99
00:04:24,520 --> 00:04:24,900
no we don't

100
00:04:24,940 --> 00:04:26,240
all I'll say is that man knows how to

101
00:04:26,500 --> 00:04:27,360
dissemble an AK-47

102
00:04:27,760 --> 00:04:27,940
anyway

103
00:04:28,220 --> 00:04:29,320
so I remember this pretty well

104
00:04:29,460 --> 00:04:29,980
from when I was a kid

105
00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:30,800
but the first impression

106
00:04:31,020 --> 00:04:31,980
I think everyone got the time

107
00:04:32,380 --> 00:04:33,640
and everyone still gets

108
00:04:33,820 --> 00:04:34,700
is that their faces

109
00:04:35,060 --> 00:04:35,580
on the aliens are

110
00:04:35,800 --> 00:04:36,240
fucking horrific

111
00:04:36,500 --> 00:04:37,880
they really hadn't

112
00:04:38,080 --> 00:04:39,080
quite nailed down

113
00:04:39,100 --> 00:04:43,540
doing CGI faces yet I don't think moving in a natural way and when they're kind of bopping

114
00:04:43,600 --> 00:04:48,940
their heads along and singing along it just I remember finding it not as annoying as it

115
00:04:49,200 --> 00:04:54,260
nowadays because I was eight and I was probably target audience I'd imagine I don't remember

116
00:04:54,700 --> 00:05:00,380
hating it but also I kind of remember being kind of scared to watch the video which is kind of

117
00:05:00,460 --> 00:05:05,080
funny because it grew up watching the x-files since I was four or something and yet I found

118
00:05:05,140 --> 00:05:09,060
this video horrifying to watch and don't even mention I don't think I ever really knew what

119
00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:13,660
were because it's just like a rhythm and you just sort of put your own words to it sometimes but

120
00:05:13,740 --> 00:05:19,040
we'll get to this yeah i know i know yeah we'll get to that it's always just stuck with me and

121
00:05:19,120 --> 00:05:23,640
i don't think it's a negative um thing it's not like that bastard crazy frog but you know it's i

122
00:05:23,740 --> 00:05:29,900
think the thing about crazy frog is that that was specifically made to be a gag video to a gag song

123
00:05:30,260 --> 00:05:33,760
well this one i think they genuinely thought that they were creating this amazing piece of art

124
00:05:34,180 --> 00:05:39,040
like the the employees like the cgi artists who worked on the video and they're talking about like

125
00:05:39,060 --> 00:05:42,260
you know, brainstorming sessions and how they're all full of ideas

126
00:05:42,410 --> 00:05:45,460
and they want to create this amazing sci-fi world.

127
00:05:45,610 --> 00:05:46,760
And it's like, really?

128
00:05:47,500 --> 00:05:48,840
Is that what you managed to create?

129
00:05:49,300 --> 00:05:51,400
Probably with the video, just right off the bat.

130
00:05:51,880 --> 00:05:54,280
It's not self-aware enough.

131
00:05:54,580 --> 00:05:58,380
They did something amazing and they're probably proud of it.

132
00:05:58,460 --> 00:06:02,400
They actually, the second video or second single that Eiffel 65 came out with,

133
00:06:02,460 --> 00:06:03,800
they had the aliens back in that again.

134
00:06:04,560 --> 00:06:06,100
And I'll stick a link to that in the show notes.

135
00:06:06,320 --> 00:06:08,140
So they definitely seem to want to keep going with it.

136
00:06:08,260 --> 00:06:10,240
They thought they were onto something golden here.

137
00:06:10,380 --> 00:06:15,880
They wanted this to be almost like a character that lives on throughout, I don't know, the

138
00:06:16,070 --> 00:06:17,660
album or the videos or...

139
00:06:17,660 --> 00:06:18,780
So what happened there?

140
00:06:19,060 --> 00:06:21,780
Basically, the aliens came back in the next video.

141
00:06:22,080 --> 00:06:24,280
On top of that, the alien had its own song.

142
00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:29,720
And the alien, or I guess it's one of the specific aliens, was called Zerotl.

143
00:06:29,740 --> 00:06:30,360
Zerotl.

144
00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:30,660
Yeah.

145
00:06:30,780 --> 00:06:31,060
All right.

146
00:06:31,180 --> 00:06:34,200
He has his own website you can still go to called Zerotl.com.

147
00:06:34,340 --> 00:06:35,680
And you can see this in the show links.

148
00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:38,980
I'm looking at the website and it's quite lo-fi.

149
00:06:39,180 --> 00:06:41,740
Yeah, I'm actually surprised that it still operates.

150
00:06:42,100 --> 00:06:45,000
Yeah, someone's really dedicated to renewing that domain every year.

151
00:06:45,580 --> 00:06:49,340
Because the corporation company people, they still exist.

152
00:06:49,500 --> 00:06:54,040
So it's literally at the bottom of their bills every month and they just forget.

153
00:06:54,660 --> 00:06:56,920
Does anyone know what the Rottle.com is?

154
00:06:57,780 --> 00:06:59,020
No? Okay, we'll just leave it going.

155
00:06:59,580 --> 00:07:00,800
Okay, I'm just...

156
00:07:01,100 --> 00:07:01,840
Someone's kink.

157
00:07:02,920 --> 00:07:06,580
Hey, if someone is into blue aliens, we're absolutely not to judge.

158
00:07:06,780 --> 00:07:08,300
Someone will be. Don't Google that.

159
00:07:09,180 --> 00:07:10,640
No, I want to go to D.I.T.A.T.

160
00:07:10,780 --> 00:07:17,460
If you ignore the Zerotl cinematic universe as a standalone video, do you think it holds up any better?

161
00:07:17,620 --> 00:07:18,840
I don't know. I genuinely don't know.

162
00:07:19,000 --> 00:07:22,860
This video is both the worst thing ever, yet everybody remembers it.

163
00:07:23,260 --> 00:07:23,900
Yeah, that's true.

164
00:07:24,040 --> 00:07:28,300
Is it actually a genius masterpiece that we just completely overlook?

165
00:07:28,700 --> 00:07:31,600
I actually didn't realise it was as old as it was.

166
00:07:31,760 --> 00:07:36,260
I can remember people singing this all the way into when I was in high school and stuff like that.

167
00:07:36,580 --> 00:07:40,360
So I obviously had some staying power in Scotland at least.

168
00:07:40,520 --> 00:07:44,800
But, you know, Scotland in the 90s and 90s and shit techno kind of go hand in hand.

169
00:07:45,100 --> 00:07:46,080
No, they were always there.

170
00:07:47,080 --> 00:07:56,100
I definitely remember listening to it being out in clubs or something when I was a teen in Bulgaria in the mid-90s.

171
00:07:56,360 --> 00:08:01,200
It's a definite phenomenon that still sticks and I don't know if it's just the nostalgia for it.

172
00:08:01,380 --> 00:08:04,680
I don't know if it's just because it was around when I was growing up

173
00:08:05,020 --> 00:08:09,340
if the power of nostalgia has its control over me in this situation.

174
00:08:09,520 --> 00:08:12,120
But I don't listen to it and go, this is a terrible song,

175
00:08:12,400 --> 00:08:14,140
even though musically it's simple as fuck.

176
00:08:14,380 --> 00:08:15,580
The lyrics are simple as fuck.

177
00:08:15,820 --> 00:08:18,180
So objectively, it's not a great piece of art.

178
00:08:18,380 --> 00:08:20,800
However, whenever I listen to it, I don't automatically go,

179
00:08:21,000 --> 00:08:21,800
oh, this is a piece of shit.

180
00:08:22,020 --> 00:08:24,400
Maybe it's just one of those lightning in a bottle situations

181
00:08:24,740 --> 00:08:28,640
where they got something really catchy and it just stayed on forever.

182
00:08:28,920 --> 00:08:31,700
Did you guys watch the Vice documentary about it?

183
00:08:31,820 --> 00:08:31,960
Yeah.

184
00:08:32,219 --> 00:08:36,520
I found it really interesting that obviously when they were in their Bliscoe commune,

185
00:08:36,760 --> 00:08:41,020
you know, it had balls that were paper thin and everyone could hear everyone.

186
00:08:41,360 --> 00:08:45,220
And, you know, someone literally heard the melody being played on a piano.

187
00:08:45,780 --> 00:08:49,200
They wrote the song and had lyrics and whatnot within two hours.

188
00:08:49,700 --> 00:08:52,240
It was made fast and sort of had its moment in time.

189
00:08:52,400 --> 00:08:56,400
It had this weird sort of glitch where it just kept on being in people's heads.

190
00:08:56,620 --> 00:09:02,980
And it was kind of the first ever viral style song or video that, you know, once people watch, they never forget it.

191
00:09:03,080 --> 00:09:06,660
The Vice documentary we're talking about is Neil found it beforehand.

192
00:09:06,920 --> 00:09:08,900
And there's a link in the description if you want to watch that.

193
00:09:08,940 --> 00:09:10,040
It's pretty good for a Vice video.

194
00:09:10,340 --> 00:09:11,940
It's not doing the usual Vice bullshit.

195
00:09:12,200 --> 00:09:12,760
So that's fun.

196
00:09:12,940 --> 00:09:21,380
I tried to watch it genuinely, but I stopped it halfway through because there's a moment where when he was talking about the thought process behind the actual lyrics,

197
00:09:21,980 --> 00:09:26,160
how they were very impressed with the idea of like being blue because it's almost like a universal

198
00:09:26,470 --> 00:09:31,920
feeling which you could be you know you could be sad or you could be a smurf and i just could not

199
00:09:32,230 --> 00:09:37,720
i just absolutely could not put it past me that they are so full of shit that they thought that

200
00:09:37,720 --> 00:09:42,660
they sounded yeah they just thought they sounded amazing on that i usually find that with films and

201
00:09:42,670 --> 00:09:47,099
stuff like that uh when people say oh this is a metaphor for that most of it was a coincidence

202
00:09:47,120 --> 00:09:50,280
and they just made that up later for a crowd to hear.

203
00:09:50,810 --> 00:09:50,900
Yeah.

204
00:09:51,180 --> 00:09:52,940
So, a propolis nothing, gentlemen,

205
00:09:53,130 --> 00:09:55,420
I did the thing which you just told me not to do,

206
00:09:55,520 --> 00:09:56,160
but I did it anyway.

207
00:09:56,720 --> 00:09:59,380
And I looked absolutely deviant at.

208
00:09:59,660 --> 00:10:00,540
Oh, God, don't do that.

209
00:10:00,680 --> 00:10:01,840
No, no, no, no, no, no.

210
00:10:02,380 --> 00:10:06,940
I'm very happy to say no penises.

211
00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:07,560
Okay.

212
00:10:08,060 --> 00:10:10,500
It's very, very, it's very tasteful.

213
00:10:11,080 --> 00:10:12,060
It's artfully done.

214
00:10:12,100 --> 00:10:13,180
It's very artfully done.

215
00:10:13,340 --> 00:10:15,260
Turn my VPN on before I click this.

216
00:10:15,500 --> 00:10:20,180
There is one sort of a furry thing going on,

217
00:10:20,340 --> 00:10:21,160
but nothing sexual.

218
00:10:22,040 --> 00:10:23,060
Very, very tasteful.

219
00:10:23,240 --> 00:10:23,780
Oh, good question.

220
00:10:23,850 --> 00:10:25,840
It's actually got the band in it as well, and a dog.

221
00:10:26,040 --> 00:10:26,640
No, no, no, no, no.

222
00:10:27,740 --> 00:10:28,920
That's the lead singer.

223
00:10:29,680 --> 00:10:30,840
But as a furry, I guess,

224
00:10:31,480 --> 00:10:34,380
clearly some people still feel about this.

225
00:10:34,480 --> 00:10:36,720
The last video, the last pictures they posted,

226
00:10:37,020 --> 00:10:37,900
it's from last year.

227
00:10:38,220 --> 00:10:42,980
Someone is still making fan art for this fucking bullsuck.

228
00:10:43,020 --> 00:10:45,380
So what Neil was saying about it being a glitch

229
00:10:45,820 --> 00:10:47,080
and it kind of just keeps on going.

230
00:10:47,300 --> 00:10:48,200
Apparently it's still going.

231
00:10:48,400 --> 00:10:48,480
Yeah.

232
00:10:48,600 --> 00:10:50,280
Oh my God, that last one's a bit disturbing

233
00:10:50,580 --> 00:10:53,480
because the alien's like the same size as all the band members.

234
00:10:53,740 --> 00:10:56,740
I'm sure there's like an uncensored version of this

235
00:10:56,860 --> 00:10:59,180
which is not posted online, which I don't care to see.

236
00:10:59,480 --> 00:11:02,340
Well, shout out to Zerotel's fan community.

Go on to forecast at gmail.com and explain.

241
00:11:10,860 --> 00:11:13,120
Please don't email your fanart of Zerotto.

242
00:11:13,820 --> 00:11:17,400
So do you want to talk about your unfortunate connection?

243
00:11:17,580 --> 00:11:17,880
Yes.

244
00:11:18,380 --> 00:11:23,020
The song is kind of has a permanent connection in my head to Rangers and Celtic,

245
00:11:23,120 --> 00:11:25,480
which for people who don't know are two football teams in Glasgow.

246
00:11:25,820 --> 00:11:27,100
They don't really like each other.

247
00:11:27,420 --> 00:11:28,980
There's kind of a rivalry thing going on.

248
00:11:29,180 --> 00:11:33,040
My school was predominantly full of Rangers fans and they would always sing,

249
00:11:33,200 --> 00:11:35,580
I'm blue, if I was green, I would die.

250
00:11:36,380 --> 00:11:38,060
Because Celtic are green, Rangers are blue.

251
00:11:38,320 --> 00:11:40,120
So I'm blue, if I was green, I would die.

252
00:11:40,380 --> 00:11:43,160
And I think they did sing that a Rangers game for a while.

253
00:11:43,260 --> 00:11:47,720
It's always in my head been connected to probably the most annoying thing about Glasgow,

254
00:11:47,810 --> 00:11:53,940
which is a stupid football rivalry, which dominates a lot of the discussion when it should just fuck off, in my opinion.

255
00:11:54,220 --> 00:11:55,540
Can you tell I'm not a football fan?

256
00:11:56,780 --> 00:11:58,140
True, but think of it that way.

257
00:11:58,300 --> 00:12:07,020
As far as modifying songs to offend your football rival goal, this is not quite like the worst thing you could listen to.

258
00:12:07,120 --> 00:12:09,260
It's a Rangers chant, which isn't full of bigotry.

259
00:12:09,440 --> 00:12:11,040
Yes, yeah, let's put it that way.

260
00:12:11,120 --> 00:12:12,560
It's actually better than most of them.

261
00:12:12,620 --> 00:12:13,440
I'm blue.

262
00:12:26,320 --> 00:12:28,160
I'm blue.

263
00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:44,420
I think it was five people working on this video.

264
00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:50,800
And it was a thing they said that none of them was like properly trained on 3ds Max,

265
00:12:51,110 --> 00:12:54,060
which 3ds Max nowadays is a nightmare to work on.

266
00:12:54,090 --> 00:12:56,460
I can imagine how it was in like 20 years ago.

267
00:12:56,740 --> 00:12:59,700
Yeah, for someone who is not trained into this,

268
00:13:00,240 --> 00:13:02,820
I was almost, I'm not going to use the word impressed,

269
00:13:03,720 --> 00:13:08,180
but also like not disgusted by the rigging of their creations.

270
00:13:09,100 --> 00:13:14,820
The actual animation is garbage and the actual character creation is garbage, but the rigging was not...

271
00:13:15,140 --> 00:13:17,440
I've seen much worse even from like modern movies.

272
00:13:17,820 --> 00:13:20,440
Do you want to explain rigging for people who don't know, including me?

273
00:13:20,540 --> 00:13:24,520
Not me, but I'll get from actual animation Conan because he knows what he's talking about.

274
00:13:25,260 --> 00:13:25,840
Every rigging.

275
00:13:27,080 --> 00:13:28,000
Does he have a theme tune yet?

276
00:13:28,580 --> 00:13:29,820
Yeah, jinx.

277
00:13:31,560 --> 00:13:34,380
If you want me, Dave, I can sing some lyrics.

278
00:13:34,890 --> 00:13:37,060
I think I've unlocked a new skill today.

279
00:13:37,360 --> 00:13:38,620
Achievement unlocked. Sing a song.

280
00:13:38,840 --> 00:13:48,780
Okay, so rigging is all about basically inserting a skeleton into a 3D model to give it a bone and making it move.

281
00:13:49,060 --> 00:13:55,820
Because otherwise, you use the skeletons to rotate the model, basically, and the bits of the model.

282
00:13:55,820 --> 00:14:03,620
So to rig something is to give it a skeleton and make the 3D model move in the correct way with the skeleton.

283
00:14:04,140 --> 00:14:06,620
These guys did do some rigging on their models.

284
00:14:06,940 --> 00:14:07,940
It's not very good.

285
00:14:08,300 --> 00:14:09,880
Well, for 1998, it's probably all right.

286
00:14:10,220 --> 00:14:13,940
The thing that I kind of took notice of when I watched it

287
00:14:14,140 --> 00:14:17,920
was the fact that you can tell some parts they animated themselves

288
00:14:18,560 --> 00:14:22,700
and some parts they bought some mocap data and plugged it in.

289
00:14:23,240 --> 00:14:24,740
The bit like right at the beginning when they're in,

290
00:14:24,810 --> 00:14:27,020
like the guys are like driving the spaceship or whatever.

291
00:14:27,220 --> 00:14:29,460
The animation is very simple.

292
00:14:29,760 --> 00:14:32,080
They are moving one or two bones at a time.

293
00:14:32,480 --> 00:14:34,200
And it's just kind of like moving left and right,

294
00:14:34,280 --> 00:14:39,260
like rotating like not really doing anything complicated and it doesn't look very good it's

295
00:14:39,280 --> 00:14:44,860
like very typical like i have made something and bring something for the first time i'm going to

296
00:14:44,980 --> 00:14:49,180
animate it and then like halfway through they're like fighting the guys are running around and it's

297
00:14:49,220 --> 00:14:54,560
like properly animated with like very kind of detailed animation and i'm like yeah that's that's

298
00:14:54,560 --> 00:15:00,319
a mocap they've got some data of a mo from some mocap studio somewhere and shoved it onto their rig

299
00:15:00,340 --> 00:15:05,160
and they're just like this is why we have a fight scene now because we bought some fight scene mocap

300
00:15:05,370 --> 00:15:08,720
it was about like last week i was saying they they looked like they'd bought in a bunch of stock

301
00:15:08,910 --> 00:15:13,800
models so in this one you reckon they bought stock mocap yeah yeah like the model they have

302
00:15:14,260 --> 00:15:18,220
their little blue man is clearly something they made like they're very proud of it the animation

303
00:15:18,480 --> 00:15:23,540
is like custom to it so like they're singing or they're waving they're doing like their little dance

304
00:15:24,020 --> 00:15:26,279
that is clearly custom animation and it's awful

305
00:15:30,360 --> 00:15:38,480
um i'm just saying it's it's it's not professional um excuse me they got paid for that and like

306
00:15:38,620 --> 00:15:43,420
when you when you see them running the running animation is the same animation for both models

307
00:15:43,740 --> 00:15:47,840
when the two blue guys are running down the hall it's exactly the same animation i literally just

308
00:15:47,960 --> 00:15:52,960
cut to that in my screen yeah it's literally the same animation and also it looks really bad on the

309
00:15:52,880 --> 00:15:54,800
model because the model isn't super

310
00:15:54,960 --> 00:15:56,580
well rigged for that animation

311
00:15:57,080 --> 00:15:58,900
so the model's kind of a bit squished in a

312
00:15:59,000 --> 00:16:00,780
weird way because the mocap is the mocap

313
00:16:01,080 --> 00:16:02,940
data and they've just put it on the model

314
00:16:03,100 --> 00:16:04,720
they're like right here's an animation which

315
00:16:04,820 --> 00:16:07,060
telling like an arm bone

316
00:16:07,110 --> 00:16:08,820
to rotate like this here's our model

317
00:16:09,220 --> 00:16:10,980
completely different from what this was supposed

318
00:16:10,980 --> 00:16:13,020
to do but it'll work anyway do it

319
00:16:13,200 --> 00:16:15,040
and the model's all like squished up a little

320
00:16:15,140 --> 00:16:16,660
bit not very comfortable

321
00:16:16,960 --> 00:16:19,020
right okay two very different

322
00:16:19,680 --> 00:16:20,899
types of animation in there

323
00:16:21,180 --> 00:16:26,040
one okay and one very clearly like to the mouth movements when they're in the ship the mouth

324
00:16:26,220 --> 00:16:30,160
movements are very telling yeah i was i think that's the one that always sticks me because it

325
00:16:30,240 --> 00:16:35,300
look it's it does that uncanny valley thing where it's actually slightly disturbing yeah absolutely

326
00:16:35,840 --> 00:16:40,360
not a great one that well so thank you for explaining animation to i think what i was saying

327
00:16:40,480 --> 00:16:44,640
earlier some of it's not bad i'm not talking about the models they are clearly shit but um

328
00:16:45,020 --> 00:16:50,880
the actual environments sometimes sometimes the lighting looks okay like i think neil mentioned one

329
00:16:50,900 --> 00:16:51,840
one shot in a corridor.

330
00:16:51,840 --> 00:16:53,120
Yeah, there's a couple of moments, yeah.

331
00:16:53,640 --> 00:16:54,600
So obviously that's a,

332
00:16:54,890 --> 00:16:55,700
as Scott was saying,

333
00:16:55,980 --> 00:16:56,220
it's a,

334
00:16:56,410 --> 00:16:57,200
that was a purchased

335
00:16:58,600 --> 00:16:59,320
3D made

336
00:17:00,140 --> 00:17:00,500
environment

337
00:17:00,940 --> 00:17:02,120
and they just made

338
00:17:02,310 --> 00:17:02,960
Mr. Blue Man,

339
00:17:03,980 --> 00:17:04,339
Zotro,

340
00:17:04,540 --> 00:17:05,140
whatever you want to call him,

341
00:17:05,380 --> 00:17:06,199
just run through it, yeah.

342
00:17:06,339 --> 00:17:06,839
Zorotto,

343
00:17:07,079 --> 00:17:08,060
how dare you, Neo?

344
00:17:08,560 --> 00:17:08,920
Zorotto.

345
00:17:10,079 --> 00:17:10,439
Zorotto.

346
00:17:10,800 --> 00:17:11,520
That actually makes sense.

347
00:17:11,589 --> 00:17:12,500
It probably did buy

348
00:17:12,550 --> 00:17:13,240
all the other stuff

349
00:17:13,380 --> 00:17:14,180
which probably explains

350
00:17:14,300 --> 00:17:14,839
why that looks good.

351
00:17:15,040 --> 00:17:15,420
Cowboys.

352
00:17:16,060 --> 00:17:16,420
Cowboys.

353
00:17:17,439 --> 00:17:18,220
Speaking of the,

354
00:17:18,640 --> 00:17:18,780
like,

355
00:17:18,780 --> 00:17:19,920
the actual character

356
00:17:19,939 --> 00:17:27,120
design let's talk about this why did they have big blue blue balls axis for heads it kind of looks

357
00:17:27,240 --> 00:17:31,920
like they're they're going for a cross between like a child's drawing of an alien maybe green guy

358
00:17:32,100 --> 00:17:36,220
usually that and like something from star trek because they've got the weird head but regis on

359
00:17:36,220 --> 00:17:42,280
their head wait did it say star wars so i started looking into blue aliens from star wars and none of

360
00:17:42,280 --> 00:17:46,900
them really look like that did i say star i mean star trek yeah no but because they said star wars

361
00:17:47,000 --> 00:17:47,640
oh they said Star Wars

362
00:17:47,800 --> 00:17:48,040
oh okay

363
00:17:48,100 --> 00:17:48,280
yeah

364
00:17:48,510 --> 00:17:49,280
I started looking

365
00:17:49,520 --> 00:17:50,260
but nothing

366
00:17:50,720 --> 00:17:51,460
yeah it's

367
00:17:51,740 --> 00:17:53,000
it's part of my

368
00:17:53,300 --> 00:17:53,520
nightmare

369
00:17:53,960 --> 00:17:54,140
if you

370
00:17:54,660 --> 00:17:55,060
as a kid

371
00:18:11,560 --> 00:18:12,220
just watching them all

372
00:18:12,290 --> 00:18:13,040
getting slaughtered

373
00:18:13,340 --> 00:18:14,060
by the band right now

374
00:18:14,340 --> 00:18:14,740
oh yeah

375
00:18:15,020 --> 00:18:16,060
let's talk briefly

376
00:18:16,080 --> 00:18:20,980
about this part. Okay, so the whole concept of this video, from what I understand, I guess,

377
00:18:21,340 --> 00:18:26,860
is that those blue aliens are so bored of life that they find this random Italian band,

378
00:18:27,400 --> 00:18:33,100
kidnap them, and that's apparently the highlight of their, like, I don't know, life?

379
00:18:33,560 --> 00:18:37,620
One of the Hitchhiker's guidebooks, I think it might be the one that wasn't written by Douglas Adams,

380
00:18:37,890 --> 00:18:43,740
the newest one. There's a new one? Yeah, it's okay. It's fine. One of the plots is, like, these aliens

381
00:18:43,760 --> 00:18:44,520
who are living on Pluto

382
00:18:45,180 --> 00:18:46,400
become obsessed with Earth's TV

383
00:18:46,660 --> 00:18:47,820
because they've all lost their memory

384
00:18:48,100 --> 00:18:50,240
and the only media they can find.

385
00:18:50,400 --> 00:18:51,980
The aliens have obviously been floating around

386
00:18:52,240 --> 00:18:52,920
watching Earth's TV

387
00:18:53,160 --> 00:18:55,020
and they've taken a liking to Eiffel 65,

388
00:18:55,420 --> 00:18:57,400
the latest sensation sweeping the nation.

389
00:18:57,580 --> 00:18:58,720
They've decided to abduct them

390
00:18:58,880 --> 00:18:59,800
so they can put a gig on for them.

391
00:18:59,860 --> 00:19:02,920
Isn't that the plot to one episode of Futurama

392
00:19:03,140 --> 00:19:04,420
where some race of aliens

393
00:19:04,960 --> 00:19:08,160
kept on watching American sitcoms

394
00:19:08,340 --> 00:19:08,920
for some reason?

395
00:19:09,240 --> 00:19:10,380
And they thought that was real life.

396
00:19:11,240 --> 00:19:12,520
So some TV show,

397
00:19:12,580 --> 00:19:13,520
which you can't remember the name of,

398
00:19:13,560 --> 00:19:15,520
got cancelled. Did you agree with that?

399
00:19:15,620 --> 00:19:17,100
They kidnapped the

400
00:19:17,460 --> 00:19:19,540
actors because they thought they were real or something

401
00:19:19,720 --> 00:19:21,400
and they were like, you know, tell us how

402
00:19:21,540 --> 00:19:23,500
this story ends. This is

403
00:19:23,670 --> 00:19:25,720
also the story to Galaxy Quest, now I think about it.

404
00:19:26,800 --> 00:19:27,380
This is

405
00:19:27,760 --> 00:19:29,200
well-trodden ground in the sci-fi.

406
00:19:29,460 --> 00:19:31,220
We've got three off the top for it.

407
00:19:32,280 --> 00:19:33,540
Four if you can include this.

408
00:19:33,640 --> 00:19:35,500
Of course we can include this. Neil, do you

409
00:19:35,600 --> 00:19:37,480
have any input to this trope

410
00:19:37,530 --> 00:19:39,680
that we accidentally discovered? No comments.

411
00:19:40,160 --> 00:19:41,660
He seems awful cagey

412
00:19:41,680 --> 00:19:47,240
about that yeah maybe neil's a blue alien i've explained so much neil show yourself every bit

413
00:19:47,560 --> 00:19:53,540
take everything off it's a bit cold for that well it's fine if there's a problem you turn blue but

414
00:19:53,760 --> 00:20:01,920
it's fine don't come in the water see if he floats burn him yeah but basically basically from

415
00:20:01,930 --> 00:20:06,720
what we can gather these all these aliens wanted was eifel 65 to come on the ship and play a gig for

416
00:20:06,800 --> 00:20:11,640
them so they abduct the lead singer take him up then the rest of the band who also have a spaceship

417
00:20:11,660 --> 00:20:12,340
I don't know if I mentioned that.

418
00:20:12,480 --> 00:20:13,760
Go on, go and try and save them.

419
00:20:13,980 --> 00:20:17,800
But they murder like 20 or 30 of the alien guards in the process.

420
00:20:18,050 --> 00:20:20,460
It's a bit of a are we the baddie sort of situation this one.

421
00:20:20,740 --> 00:20:22,900
I think it's a problem with the moment when the aliens were like,

422
00:20:22,910 --> 00:20:25,000
oh yeah, please come back to us with a massive sign.

423
00:20:25,050 --> 00:20:26,900
And they thought, hmm, yeah, that's legit.

424
00:20:27,130 --> 00:20:27,980
We should do that.

425
00:20:28,340 --> 00:20:30,360
Although we just murdered half of their planet.

426
00:20:30,560 --> 00:20:32,100
What's the worst that can happen?

427
00:20:32,420 --> 00:20:35,240
I think it all boils down to a communication issue.

428
00:20:35,430 --> 00:20:36,520
It has so many things in life.

429
00:20:37,140 --> 00:20:37,340
Indeed.

430
00:20:38,300 --> 00:20:41,200
What you're trying to say is that their relationship is based on abuse.

431
00:20:41,280 --> 00:20:44,080
and monetary control.

432
00:20:44,500 --> 00:20:45,240
Monetary control.

433
00:20:46,900 --> 00:20:48,060
Capitalism strikes again.

434
00:20:48,900 --> 00:20:50,240
Is that why they're blue?

435
00:20:50,460 --> 00:20:52,100
Because that's like

436
00:20:52,200 --> 00:20:53,400
final form of capitalism.

437
00:20:53,480 --> 00:20:54,980
This is actually set in the future

438
00:20:55,160 --> 00:20:56,240
and all the capitalists

439
00:20:56,360 --> 00:20:57,040
have left the earth

440
00:20:57,130 --> 00:20:58,300
and become these little blue guys.

441
00:20:58,370 --> 00:20:59,380
It makes perfect sense now.

442
00:20:59,480 --> 00:21:00,660
It does make perfect sense.

443
00:21:00,800 --> 00:21:02,400
Also makes sense why they're so

444
00:21:02,700 --> 00:21:03,940
like ready to, you know,

445
00:21:04,060 --> 00:21:04,560
to kidnap

446
00:21:04,960 --> 00:21:06,400
and then to shoot down people

447
00:21:06,400 --> 00:21:07,300
who don't agree with them.

448
00:21:07,400 --> 00:21:08,400
But the moment the people

449
00:21:08,490 --> 00:21:10,080
they want and need run away,

450
00:21:10,800 --> 00:21:12,480
They're like, no, come back, please.

451
00:21:13,300 --> 00:21:13,800
I do, actually.

452
00:21:14,180 --> 00:21:15,500
Can I see the connection you're making now?

453
00:21:15,660 --> 00:21:15,740
Yeah.

454
00:21:15,900 --> 00:21:17,980
We have discovered the conspiracy yet again.

455
00:21:18,380 --> 00:21:19,780
Because I was kind of defending the aliens,

456
00:21:19,940 --> 00:21:22,000
but the aliens did just kidnap the guy.

457
00:21:22,320 --> 00:21:23,760
So it was kind of their fault anyway.

458
00:21:23,920 --> 00:21:26,220
Side note, why did they kidnap only the lead singer?

459
00:21:26,320 --> 00:21:27,240
What do they think will happen?

460
00:21:27,520 --> 00:21:30,780
He's going to be singing this masterpiece a cappella or something.

461
00:21:31,060 --> 00:21:32,940
People always overvalue the lead singer

462
00:21:33,120 --> 00:21:34,460
and undervalue the rest of the band.

463
00:21:34,680 --> 00:21:36,140
I think that's a prime example right here.

464
00:21:36,240 --> 00:21:37,580
It's going to sound a bit shy, isn't it?

465
00:21:37,600 --> 00:21:38,120
Or just him?

466
00:22:02,220 --> 00:22:02,960
Double D. Double D. Double D.

467
00:22:02,960 --> 00:22:06,679
Double D. Double D probably one of the most famous cases of misheard lyrics in all of

468
00:22:06,700 --> 00:22:09,600
History is pretty much open to interpretation what they're saying.

469
00:22:09,890 --> 00:22:10,900
If you're not listening closely.

470
00:22:11,260 --> 00:22:13,280
I'm blue, I believe I'm a guy.

471
00:22:13,700 --> 00:22:14,860
If I were green, I would die.

472
00:22:14,940 --> 00:22:17,380
If I die, I would eat apple pie.

473
00:22:17,580 --> 00:22:19,020
I believe I can fly.

474
00:22:19,360 --> 00:22:20,620
Without a beat, I could die.

475
00:22:20,840 --> 00:22:22,020
Grab a flea, grab a fly.

476
00:22:22,580 --> 00:22:24,140
I'm in a needle for guys.

477
00:22:24,280 --> 00:22:25,460
I'm a green apple guy.

478
00:22:27,200 --> 00:22:28,480
I'm a bean, I'm a guy.

479
00:22:28,800 --> 00:22:31,760
This one has been stuck in my head ever since I've said it.

480
00:22:32,360 --> 00:22:33,700
In Aberdeen, I would die.

481
00:22:34,100 --> 00:22:35,720
I could have beat up at night.

482
00:22:36,260 --> 00:22:37,300
Double D, double die.

483
00:22:38,200 --> 00:22:39,400
I would meet other guys.

484
00:22:40,000 --> 00:22:41,640
I would be, I would bye.

485
00:22:42,100 --> 00:22:43,680
All will bleed, all will die.

486
00:22:44,060 --> 00:22:45,940
I flew the sea and the sky.

487
00:22:46,920 --> 00:22:48,620
I need me or I'll die.

488
00:22:49,380 --> 00:22:50,160
We did it, guys.

489
00:22:50,520 --> 00:22:51,160
We did it.

490
00:22:53,300 --> 00:22:54,940
I've got a game as well for the listeners at home.

491
00:22:55,660 --> 00:22:58,740
Future Me has pasted all of these into the show notes.

492
00:22:58,940 --> 00:23:01,900
So if you go to your podcast player of choice and go to your show notes,

493
00:23:02,280 --> 00:23:03,500
focus on one of the sentences,

494
00:23:04,020 --> 00:23:08,520
And I swear to God, you will start hearing the sentence instead of dabba-dee dabba-die.

495
00:23:08,740 --> 00:23:11,860
Because I was reading it earlier and I read in Aberdeen I would die.

496
00:23:12,050 --> 00:23:13,080
And then that was all I could hear.

497
00:23:13,340 --> 00:23:14,680
I'm going to play the song now.

498
00:23:24,380 --> 00:23:26,719
Find another lyric and...

499
00:23:35,820 --> 00:23:36,920
Okay, I've just blown everyone's mind.

500
00:23:38,240 --> 00:23:38,700
In the future.

501
00:23:39,160 --> 00:23:40,180
Are we doing final points?

502
00:23:40,560 --> 00:23:41,120
Who wants to start?

503
00:23:41,260 --> 00:23:43,480
There is not much to say about this video, is there?

504
00:23:44,040 --> 00:23:47,400
I'm fairly certain there is no human being on the surface of the planet

505
00:23:47,770 --> 00:23:50,680
who has not encountered this magical piece of shit video.

506
00:23:51,090 --> 00:23:54,959
And yet, the only reason why everybody still remembers it

507
00:23:54,980 --> 00:23:56,840
is because of this piece of shit video.

508
00:23:57,280 --> 00:23:58,440
You know, animation is garbage,

509
00:23:58,810 --> 00:23:59,540
music is horrible,

510
00:23:59,860 --> 00:24:01,020
lyrics are non-existent.

511
00:24:01,400 --> 00:24:03,660
And yet we're still here talking about it

512
00:24:03,800 --> 00:24:05,940
with Reminiscence 22 years later.

513
00:24:06,200 --> 00:24:07,800
The sort of logical half of my brain.

514
00:24:08,020 --> 00:24:09,820
Everything about this video and the song

515
00:24:10,040 --> 00:24:10,660
I should hate.

516
00:24:10,780 --> 00:24:12,940
There's very little redeemable about it.

517
00:24:13,100 --> 00:24:14,580
However, I don't hate it.

518
00:24:14,590 --> 00:24:15,520
I actually quite like it

519
00:24:15,530 --> 00:24:16,540
and I don't understand why.

520
00:24:16,860 --> 00:24:17,760
I don't know if it's just

521
00:24:17,900 --> 00:24:19,780
the cold hard grip of nostalgia on me

522
00:24:19,980 --> 00:24:21,740
or if they're doing some hypnosis

523
00:24:22,020 --> 00:24:22,640
David Blaine shit,

524
00:24:22,810 --> 00:24:23,460
but I do like it

525
00:24:23,510 --> 00:24:24,180
and I don't know why.

526
00:24:24,680 --> 00:24:28,600
make of that what you will. This song takes me back to about 2001 when my parents first bought a

527
00:24:28,740 --> 00:24:33,480
family computer that had access to the internet. Since about late 1999 I'd been craving the

528
00:24:33,780 --> 00:24:39,140
opportunity to explore the world wide web but also during that time we got cable tv and had access to

529
00:24:39,260 --> 00:24:44,180
music channels such as MTV and VH1. I think this was one of the first videos it just happened to play

530
00:24:44,320 --> 00:24:49,699
within a few days of having access to this like new form of content. This video to me always looked

531
00:24:49,720 --> 00:24:55,100
like a video game and at that time I was pretty much blown away by it but fast forward 20 years

532
00:24:55,250 --> 00:25:00,040
later the song certainly looks like ass but I think in my opinion Blue's got a get out of jail

533
00:25:00,170 --> 00:25:05,400
free card that I think kind of allows this badly aged music video to have a pass. So my favorite part

534
00:25:05,560 --> 00:25:12,160
is the timing between 2 minutes 11 and 2 minutes 18 when the lead singer looks like he forgot how

535
00:25:12,230 --> 00:25:17,400
the song goes because it's those very very complicated lyrics avoidance of strength I guess.

536
00:25:18,200 --> 00:25:18,680
Yeah, he does.

537
00:25:19,250 --> 00:25:20,840
He just looks very, very confused, doesn't he?

538
00:25:20,940 --> 00:25:22,840
I sort of interpreted that as he was confused

539
00:25:22,980 --> 00:25:23,940
while he was singing to Aliens,

540
00:25:24,100 --> 00:25:25,720
but it does just look like he's forgot the song.

541
00:25:25,780 --> 00:25:27,660
Well, to be honest, he could just be confused

542
00:25:27,880 --> 00:25:30,140
why this is a complete silence around him,

543
00:25:30,280 --> 00:25:33,140
why he's actually acapelling this da-ba-dee-da-ba-da-ba.

544
00:25:33,320 --> 00:25:34,080
Where's my band going?

545
00:25:34,440 --> 00:25:35,260
Oh, God damn it.

546
00:25:35,510 --> 00:25:36,680
They had the auto-tune.

547
00:25:36,760 --> 00:25:38,580
Where's the guy with the USB stick with the backing track?

548
00:25:39,000 --> 00:25:40,220
And the worst part is,

549
00:25:40,620 --> 00:25:42,000
three minutes, three seconds,

550
00:25:42,250 --> 00:25:43,560
the sign, please come back,

551
00:25:43,940 --> 00:25:46,280
which for Eiffel Tower 65,

552
00:25:47,120 --> 00:25:52,540
Which I feel 65 apparently means that it's a-okay to walk back on the planet,

553
00:25:52,760 --> 00:25:55,260
although they just literally incinerated half the population.

554
00:25:56,240 --> 00:25:59,080
Well, they did come back for future videos, so they must have worked out their differences.

555
00:25:59,360 --> 00:26:00,060
One can only hope.

556
00:26:00,080 --> 00:26:01,800
My favourite part is 2 minutes to 83.

557
00:26:02,080 --> 00:26:04,980
One of the band members is doing some sort of spin punching.

558
00:26:05,580 --> 00:26:06,700
I can't even really describe it.

559
00:26:06,720 --> 00:26:08,720
It doesn't look like an effective fighting technique.

560
00:26:08,980 --> 00:26:12,780
He's just kicking ass and he's flying aliens all over the place and it's really good.

561
00:26:12,900 --> 00:26:16,400
The worst part is the fact that the aliens just wanted to put a gig on

562
00:26:16,580 --> 00:26:17,900
and the band go on a murdering spree.

563
00:26:18,580 --> 00:26:19,460
Can't we all just get along?

564
00:26:19,800 --> 00:26:23,260
My favourite part for me was a moment where the shadow and lighting

565
00:26:23,330 --> 00:26:24,520
looked pretty good at 1 minute 18.

566
00:26:25,000 --> 00:26:27,540
But until Scott sort of told me about the way the rigging works,

567
00:26:27,730 --> 00:26:30,340
it actually looks pretty shit now with the way they run down the hallway.

568
00:26:30,700 --> 00:26:32,140
But yeah, the lighting looks all right.

569
00:26:32,240 --> 00:26:34,300
I mean, I thought, yeah, it's not bad, not bad.

570
00:26:34,530 --> 00:26:35,420
I guess it was dark.

571
00:26:35,700 --> 00:26:37,780
Dark hides a lot of flaws.

572
00:26:38,320 --> 00:26:41,640
Yeah, worst part, I can't really forgive the aged animation.

573
00:26:41,900 --> 00:26:49,280
I think in all fairness it looks shite now as it did back in 1999 but hey at least it looked good in my mind.

574
00:26:49,560 --> 00:26:50,860
So Iron O's.

575
00:26:51,260 --> 00:27:03,280
I don't know I'm gonna go with a very soft eye because I hate it but also I can't not recommend it to every single person but also I'm sure everyone has already seen it.

576
00:27:03,380 --> 00:27:05,840
It apparently has some sort of magical lasting power,

577
00:27:06,220 --> 00:27:07,540
which is maintained to this day,

578
00:27:07,720 --> 00:27:09,440
judging by deviant art and other things.

579
00:27:09,900 --> 00:27:12,100
Every logical bone in my body says I should hate it,

580
00:27:12,200 --> 00:27:12,620
but I don't.

581
00:27:13,060 --> 00:27:14,900
So it's getting an eye from me for some reason.

582
00:27:15,100 --> 00:27:15,440
Don't know why.

583
00:27:15,440 --> 00:27:17,540
It's full of flaws, but at the same time,

584
00:27:17,780 --> 00:27:20,280
I think it's at this golden age

585
00:27:20,520 --> 00:27:21,760
in that sort of style of music

586
00:27:22,080 --> 00:27:25,340
that gets a wide pass from me for a lot of the flaws.

587
00:27:25,860 --> 00:27:28,480
And I kind of love it in this weird, nostalgic way,

588
00:27:28,740 --> 00:27:30,520
but I think it's one of those videos where,

589
00:27:31,040 --> 00:27:32,620
I don't know, just takes people back.

590
00:27:48,780 --> 00:27:53,720
okay i guess that's done for another week uh take a look at the show notes for today's links to
