Apple The Pencil Test

[IfIWereYourVampire]

funny...but sad

[dbuckley2005]

TRiStAnRdOnOvAn: lol! None of us can ever get back home!

[kargaroc386]

Pixar should remake this with the latest graphics, as a short. i meant pixar, not apple. just for nostalgia. and to see how far technology has come since the days of 16 MHz 68020s

[IfIWereYourVampire]

your right lol :)

[TRiStAnRdOnOvAn]

how come he cant get back n?

[SLagerZahne]

John Lasseter did not make this, he was a teacher of the students who made this. I't from 1988, Pixar is from 1982. Get your facts right bro.

[milowerx]

Thanks... but if you READ the description bro, it does not SAY that he made it as many many people have already pointed out here. Thanks though for checking it out!

[TheZFactor2]

@SLagerZahne Pixar was 1986...Lassetter had been at what would be Pixar since 1984.

I don't know when Andrew Stanton got to Pixar, but when he showed up at Pixar, he had "never touched a computer" before (according to the documentary "The Pixar Story")

Where did this video come from, by the way?

[clavencute]

sign me up

[duchamp2099]

Well, this video was made in 1988, so Pixar did exist. Pixar was the 3D effects maker of "Young Sherlock Holmes" in 1985, when was a part of ILM. And Lasseter have 3D videos older than this. But this is great (and very cute)

[PoliomanGamer]

Don't fell sorry, this guy doesn't know anything.

[milowerx]

What's a waste of time?

[funnybones17]

wtf

[Anflinch]

[Dymozz]

[cookie123456789012]

Agreed. Its sooooooooooo cool!

[jojo263]

[garnet17]

oh and pixar did exist at the time

[garnet17]

it wasnt the first one he made. that 1 would be the adventures of andre and walley b in 1984 when he was hired by lucas film to do the animation on it. luxo jr in 1986 then it was reds dream in 1987

[hausenharry]

[keitske]

And the computer looks like one of the ancient ones my aunt has in her garage. Doesn't work though, when I turn it on theres a blue screen, I think its supposed to teach you how to type or something, anyways, cute <33

[FS747]

[restlesssoul7]

[SODAPOP441]

the pencil is so cute

[synbow]

Is it me or there's a little lag with the sounds ... ?

[kirstiemm2]

Why can't he get back into the computer? I'm really confused about that. . . .strange. .

[milowerx]

I'm not sure of course but I always thought of it that it was because once he left the digital realm he's 'real' and can't get back to being digital.

[eborchar]

because the computer shut down/went to sleep

[slug182]

MAN THATS LOUD!

[NucHazarduZ]

yeah OMG!

[marclougee]

Right on- a classic!

[WolvenSpirt]

poor little pencil

X3

[Tomatogrower]

cute :)

[Littleslg]

aww. poor pencil. It's ok little soldier, keep trying! xD

[fabianfucci]

This short was made around the 80's, and I have been looking forward to see it since then. It is the first time I see it, and it looks very good.

[ZugBub]

omg, this was made the year I was born O_O

[Ciara26Akon26Beyonce]

This didn't make much sense to me.I don't know why but it does not.

[TornApart0203]

Were you even alive when the first Macs were out? - And why did they need a first aid worker? Do I want to know what they were doing?!?

[ZugBub]

I think some of the credit stuff was just a joke. Like the Whip Cracker and the Design Police

[tubachick12345]

i agree! that thing is rigged like carnie games. the pencil will never scuceed!

[pimpz911]

aww poor pencil

[RandomTreeHuggerGirl]

Wow.

Poor pencil!

that's pretty good though. for being 1988. man i've seen somegraphics like those in this year!

keep on trying pencil I believe in you! :D

[jadee810]

poor pencil!!

[cookieman66]

what a load of pants get it off for pete sake you smeg head

[BlueManIan]

Apple II, not Mac II. Macs didn't come out until 1984.

[BlueManIan]

Oops, wrong window. Kindly disregard the above comment--I was IMing with someone who showed me this video.

[BlazingBattleAx]

so, does any more proof need to be presented as to why MACs suck? trust me, they suck.

[milowerx]

What on earth does a pencil popping out of a mac have to do with macs sucking? I mean, honestly I agree they are a bit to simple for the advance geek but I am curious where you even got that train of thought?!?!?

[BlazingBattleAx]

ok dude, sorry, i was trying to be funny, and it didn't work. my bad. it was a great video though

[AnnaLRussell]

how sad. But why did that happen is what hard to understand. Just for a good joke?

[mitch529]

Cute, not pixar, but cute

[flintstonetolga]

See the title..

John Lasseter

[ESRT]

pixar my ass

[garnet17]

they didn't say it was pixar

[Mr22Ash]

Seems some people like to tell their life stories in these comments...

[milowerx]

and your problem with that is?

[Mr22Ash]

I didn't say I had a problem with it, but thanks for thinking that, shows you know some people have a problem with other people telling their life stories, which is true.

[Invad3r]

I've grown up with Pixar being on commercials, Sesame Street, and finally, movies, but it's neat to go back even further than that. Thanks for sharing this.

The credits are probably the funniest part in this. "First aid?" Yeah, probably.

[poisonmol]

Wow, impressive. Pixar at its beginnings. Interesting.

[MewBecki]

Poor 2D pencil... lost and alone in a 3 dimensinal world.

[HaloGirl100]

that pencile looks like a crip!

[TheWarriorPoet]

Made in 1988, huh? VERY impressive. I worked for Apple back in 1986 in Chicago, when the Mac was FIRST introduced. I had serial number 365! (Sold at a yard sale in the early 90's... DUMBASS!) Anyone remember NO HARDRIVE? I HATED switching disks all the time. This film works now... it was INCREDIBLE in 1988.

[milowerx]

Wow! You worked at Apple!?!? How cool is THAT? Yeah man I remember those days for sure. My brother had an Apple IIC way back in the day. Had to switch floppies to go from program to program! Amazing how far we've come eh?

[NClackum]

I think it's very good even now!

[odie200]

omg its so cute i love it i want to be the lil pencil well i am shocked how they used the machontash 2

[Braingames3600]

i am confused by this......

[tylerlavite]

this was not made by pixar. this was before Steve Jobs created Pixar. however every most of the people who worked on this video now work at pixar.

[msbonilla11]

I don't get it.

[tylerlavite]

@msbonilla

you don't have to get it.. this was made to show off the power of the Macll way back then

[msbonilla11]

oooo okay. Thanks for making it clearer. :)

[squawk56]

Remember when THIS was "State of the Art"?

[milowerx]

Hard to believe huh? That and Dire Straits' Money for Nothing video.

[LoveMakingMovies]

This would have been mind blowing in 1988 especially as it was done on a PC

[Jemppu]

"First aid"?? :D

[misobomb]

So Cute~!XD

[milowerx]

Yeah so I have since learned but then you can't change the name of the title once you post it. Cool lil film tho isn't it?

[tylerlavite]

oh i did not know you knew that and yes you can change the tittle once posted click on edit video. and it will allow you to edit the video tittle and info

[CheezNapkin]

This wasn't made by Pixar.

[kcolat]

aw the poor lil pencil!! i love it!!!

[milowerx]

Yeah it's pretty cool. And from 1988which becomes more obvious if you pay attention to the old computers.!

[squarepegdesign]

I absolutely love it! Fantastic and well done!

[RayOddname]

I can't believe it!!
