  • Muito bom! Realmente, tudo faz muito sentido e relata a realidade de muitas pessoas!!

  • ohhh yeahhh! that's crazy!

    

  • Oh, no, no. .no No, the moral here is sometimes things were simply too heavy to deal with in the past so we didn't deal with it, we didn't need to know, and we pretended not to see nor undrstand, knowing full well what.

    I say eventually when things hit you face to face later there will be no hiding what should have been dealt with before, now.

    You can run for only so long before things find you out!@#!

  • Awesome!!!!

    

  • Brilliant!

  • i have so many opinions on so many different parts of this video. the one that gets to me most is the mans dream. the concrete terminus didnt belong in nature, which i imagine is how the man feels about the city, that he doesnt belong in this man made world, but free in nature. but i cant be certain because i dont know what the others dreams are, just that they each have their own terminus. any opinions? im really trying to figure this out. lol

  • Best dance ever..

  • I did this to people in the park!!!!! I did great except the only difference was I couldnt hold the laughter. So I was instead some random girl laughing with crazy eyes. Then i danced and walked away laughing.

  • Here's what I think.

    The film's about commuting, and what it does to your psyche. The stress of modern life, etc, and how it slowly drives people insane.

    Why do I think so? The entities are all objects from the terminal. That, as a commuter, I spend two hours a day on public transport. Ugh.

  • one of the coolest things on youtube... nailed the creepy music btw...

  • The man was trapped in a modern society that he wanted to be freed of. In his dream, he is the stone person. At the end, the stone person looks at him. The stone person's head has a mark similar to that of the man's head when he falls off the bed. The man thought he had no escape. Get followed by the monster, or be the monster.

  • Madness incarnate.

  • Haha, the Villa-Maria Station artwork was following that woman at 5:58 !!!

  • What station was that at the beginning, for real? I'm guessing either Sherbrooke or Rosemont...

  • Brown acid.

  • This is "EXTREMELY" amaaaaazing :D

    I love it

  • Comment removed

  • Is the weird ambient background noise like a soundtrack? If so, I want it.

  • If I had to pick an entity to follow me, it'd be the one at 3:34 ! Love it :D

  • Love this video!!!!! I recommend this to any- one who loves unicorns & "far out" stuff such as this. No matter how many times I watch, the voices of the fellow unicorns are so comical you have know choice but to laugh.

  • Soooo... get an art degree and make some weird ass video.

  • I've watched this movie over 10 times this week as I am using it with my Japanese University EFL class. My opinion changes each time I watch it. I would like to know the director/producers take on it.

  • Dumbass kicked it . Check out Ballard of the beanie

  • I love this short film, but I am just curious about what the inspiration was for this film.

  • outstanding work

  • the expert stalkers

  • Loved it, god, truly wonderful.

  • You either learn to accept your thing, dance with it, let it follow you around, or it'll kill you. Enough said.  Brilliant

  • Knockout. Wonderfully done.

  • Great vintage bus!

  • HAHAHAHHAHAHHAHA zero.....his real name is teriminus....lol....thats hilarious

  • Outstanding work. Very abstract and sci-fi... Fabulous

  • Stunningly beautiful guys.

  • Awesome work...keep it up :)

  • The doctor didn't have one, what does that mean?

  • We all carry some sort of a burden. We need to do something about it to become free instead of ignoring it.

  • Wow. Funny and scary.  This really does bring out the surreal and inescapable feeling of a nightmare.

  • Excellent. Decidedly Lynchian, but better than any Lynch short I've seen.

  • q horrible

  • What are these tying?

  • Or the poor guy has schizophrenia.

  • I love vid. I keep on watching it. Terminus i truly this is the best vid.on youtube

  • LOL fail kick xD

  • fear bruh

  • i'd go for a swim in a very deep pool

  • seriously, in the description of this video insert "consuming a sizable amount of acid and" between "After" and "Inadvertently"

  • haha

  • the guy is tripping really fucking hard, case closed. why have none of you guys thought of this?

  • I think I just got brain freeze....

  • Good job!

  • Really nice , you guys could be in hollywood XD

  • zzzzzzzzzzzzz........

  • ((((;゚Д゚)))))))

  • it's really good ;)

  • good

  • If not for the last shot, you could say it's simply an illustration of a psychotic break, which were quite common in the '70s. But since the entity moves to another person, we can only view them as symbols of postmodern capitalist anxiety.

  • oh man.... the run over by a bus dude totally studied Tang Soo Do! Watch the nifty round kick @ 1.20!

  • !!!

    mZaaa

  • If you watch carefully you will see the other objects in his work building. The colored pac man like wheel at 2:52 if you look behind him, he tires behind another terminus like thing that later follows a lady at 2:33. The only thing I could use help with is that girl's statue which looks like a person trying to hide. at 6:31

  • This could probably be viewed in the context of good teachers vs bad teachers. The bad teacher makes you fight him first so that he can break you. He then must let you win. The problem is that you never know when he will let you win or when he is going to beat the shot out of you. These teachers are also passive-aggressive.

  • Im commander shepard, and this is my favorite system on youtube.

  • The sarcastic dance in the beginning is meant to say "Do you think I'm your slave?"

  • I just woke up and realized that it is about slavery and the modern worker. Each item that is following the individual is actually noticing or "seeing" the worker, but these people can't take being seen. The "terminus", or the "end" means that they have nothing left, all these lonely people do is work. They are things, just like the "things" the termini represent: concrete, wood,the escalator, the signs. Everybody uses these things, but nobody ever pays attention to them. The sarcastic dan

  • The blood on the terminus seems to be reflective of the original owner. I was beginning to think that the terminus was a manifestation of the working mans need to be child again, but because this is impossible the terminus is represented by a concrete statue that hardly moves. The man is running from his internal need to be s child, this unmovable and unrelenting emotional state that is always with him. That is, until the terminus moves on to the next person. Then it became confusing.

  • good

  • Strangely Delicious.

  • this youtube video has better special effects than every movie in the 90s and earlier... how the hell

  • if he wants to follow me i dont mind as long he dance that epic dance :D

  • @LoLsToRm1 yeah! that'd be great, to have your own show where ever you go! XD

  • i wouldn't mind having a stone statue like that stalking on me and seems pretty cheerful and cute fella to be with. better then perverts which some don't make sense~

  • Moral of the story: always look both ways before crossing the street.

  • @phildip More like if a cement man wants to dance, DANCE!

  • That would be so annoying! XD

  • yay montreal!

  • Interesting to watch

  • someone failed at hide and go seek back in grade school?

  • l had a dream just like that but when i looked in the mirror i saw my self as a old man, i wonder what that mat.

  • pack man!! 5:57

  • dont get this plz explan this to meh

  • The beings that I think I understand are: The wooden one, the conveyor belt one and the rolling one. Since the owner of the wooden one was smoking, it symbolizes her smoking habit. The conveyor belt symbolizes the fear of escalators (rather common but rather crippling). As the owner of the rolling one (a piece of art) was well dressed, she might be an artist and the being symbolizes the work of a more successfully competitor, rival, or apprentice.

    Thoughts?

  • @NotFromRussia19 That statue looks like its depressed,scarred, or protecting itself from being beaten by her abusive father. Probably the abusive father lol

  • @kelzare Yeah. That would make sense. Now wtf does the stone one mean and how does it transfer to different people?

  • @kelzare good guess I'm not ure myself.

  • @NotFromRussia19 You can notice that same art in his office lobby. 2:52. Although its a good guess.

  • Comment removed

  • "wood" burdens the girl

  • haha wowww... :))))))

  • HEY! its shintzel the rock monster from chowder.

  • 5:40 HAHAHHAHAAAAHAHHAHHAAAHAHAHAHA­HHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

  • mine is made of tissue rolls.

  • that thing + me = Americas Best Dance Crew

  • Looks like this guy had a fear of confrontation

  • @BR5499a

    And I'm sure that's why they are all shaped like lifeless pieces of corporate art/life... =P

  • <-------subscribe the channel! The album IMMUFFULATION's coming on! And it will be gripping! In the meantime, post in comments what you would LIKE ME TO SING. REQUEST AWAY..........................­..........

  • If we just faced our fears, we would realize they were not as scary as we thought

  • wow terminus is a jerk rofl

  • That was amazing! Very well done! 5 out of 5!

  • Never be afraid of your own fear.most times is something good.

  • Dis sht is fking funny till the dude fell. Ps: if the dude would have lived suposly the bus driver should get his ass sued,or family.

  • Well... that was depressing...

  • this shit is creepy

  • I would of danced with him lmao :D

  • this is mindtouching really. im still kinda shocking by it so i cant say much about it. its really unique.

  • "Fear is a friend who is misunderstood"

  • that shits fkn creepy!

  • dumbass bus driver is getting fired

  • Terminus is one's mind telling you that it should be used, but instead, one decides to turn his back and deny it. One denies the reason, and so it denies this objective reality. Doomed to trust on its emotions and instincts only, it will loose its identity value. One will wait for something to happen. One will die.

  • SUB 2 ME FOR A SUB

  • Lol thats cool.

  • its so cool cause it reminds me of inception

  • aww man, he was just tryin' to make you smile! now, you have to die.

  • "WTF"

    all there is to say

  • Lol that thing just wanted someone to dance with him

  • I imagine some of my solutions to this. I might have said hello, asked if he liked dancing... maybe start a conversation... asked if he wanted to sit down... if he ignored me and followed me I might introduce him to others. Now if he stalked me...

    Me: You're made out of stone. You know what stones dont like?

    Him: ...

    Me: Sledge hammers. *grabs one* You're about to be gravel.

    He'd leave.

  • @KaseyAkira I like the way you think.

  • What the.....?

  • I see it as a BULLY

  • WOW such a great film

  • I thoroughly enjoyed this. Since everyone has one of these bizarre objects following them - perhaps representative of some "secret sin" or burden that haunts them, it would seem that everyone has something in common. Realizing what we have in common should unite us more than anything, and yet ironically it alienates us even further.

  • fucking great

  • lol reminds me of some anime when they have those things watching behind their backs

  • nice

  • سمعنا كثير شيعه تحولو سنه لانهم مو مقتنعين بمذهبهم لكن سنه قليل ونادر وربما لمصلحه ...وحبي لك ياشيخ ودمت لنا..

  • this video is hilarious but someone else tell me that you think that block guy is creep as hell

  • That would be kinda cool to have that dude with you as like a bud haha

    Vote up if you agree

  • damn i want to do that kind of movies. what program was used for that. fucking school u gotta do it step by step and dont give me much nfo of what programs should i use. adobe after effects? anyway i post grade as great!!!

  • COMMERCIALISM: the ever-growing need for companies to get in your f--king face, increase their presence on T.V., the movie theater --- even risers on stairs! Soon, everyone will have a personal commercial following them EVERYWHERE!

  • THUMBS ME UP FAGGOTS

  • That was cool!

  • Comment removed

  • NO WIFIN' IN DA CLUB, GIMME TWENTY DOLLAS. 

  • absolutely delightful!!  Awesome work, keep making films!!

  • ..it's so cute...

  • I go to a junior high and i love movies and animay i would love to see this be turned into a movie and also should be a drug add for satying off acid it was like a bad trip

  • Should be redone with a Pink Floyd song.

  • that was so fake....a subway is not that empty

  • The moral of this story: Never kick walking stone entities. lol

  • You gotta dance with the floating concrete cylinder man! Everyone knows THAT!

  • aWESOME

  • What... The... Fuck...

  • Did you see the movie "Inception"? An inanimate object was used so that the person could return to the "conscious state of reality" from the dream --- here the inanimate object was animated and followed his person as if reversing roles. The animated inanimated objects were keeping their person in terror as if in a dream as his token to reality. Kind of like the work-a-day world. What a brick!

  • MONTREAL!!!! :P

  • LOL thats creepy as shit

  • BETTER THAN AVATAR!

    Actuallly it was really good! And if you didn't get the hint by the last statue covering itself, then you missed it completely. The concrete guy was the homeless people in the subway always asking for change, the waiting at the bus stop, the concrete that seems to trap you in the city. I think from there it's pretty easy to understand the rest.

  • @madrabiddog uhh this isnt talking about hobos dude read the discription

  • that was just ridiculously creepy.

  • I like how the bus driver just bolts, like I'm pretty sure they'd figure who was driving lol

  • i was expecting a skate video and i get this wtf im so triped out

  • Terrifying and hilarious at the same time. Genious

  • all he wanted to do was dance until u kicked him in his BA BA BA BA BA BALLS OF STONE!!

  • @CeRebRaLJeTLaG seriously. It's usually worth attempting the good ol' "um...can I help you?" before kicking someone in the junk

  • lol 7:32.

  • º_º wow that was creepy

  • dont watch this while stoned people.. just dont do it

  • God damnit he just wanted to dance!

  • @GmodAttic lol yeah

  • i like....

  • I think this has to do with death. Death is always looming near us.

    Each person has the object or material that will be of significance in their death looming over them, in the humanoid shape.

    When we first realize how close death is, we have the chance to live life joyfully even in the presence of our own death. Most of us fear it instead, because it is unknown, and in our attempts to flee from death we end up dying.

    Worth noting is that everyone else in the briefing room was afraid.

  • @zan25051 Jesus. Iv'e been looking for an answer to why i fear death, and you've just opened my eyes...

    Thank God for you...

  • @monkeyfacedkitten

    The commonly accepted reason for why people fear death is because they have absolutely no idea what, if anything, happens after death. They also cannot imagine absolute nothingness, because nothingness requires no perspective, which we also can't imagine.

  • god damnit this is scary

  • @DarkestJade my feelings :P

  • Terminus is different things to different people. Terminus is whatever haunts, oppresses, burdons, etc. each person. You can't run, you can't hide, you can't escape. Terminus is always there standing over you. For some, Terminus is debt. For some Terminus is fear of "X". Other'sTerminus is a cloud of doom.

  • @BR5499a Terminus is schizophrenia.

  • @Rookerman32 That could be.

  • @BR5499a FOR OTHERS, TERMINUS IS THE CONCRETE GUY WHO WANTED TO DANCE

  • @BR5499a

    And a possible moral of the story is that while you're preoccupied with avoiding or escaping the source of your problems or fears, something more tangible and real will sneak up on you...like a seven ton bus for example.

  • @BR5499a So...it could be your conscious making u suffer with guilt?

  • dude thats so bad ass i want one now..

  • Illuminati puppet.

  • WOW! that was great! a strangely compelling and darkly humorous metaphor made with a visionary sense of style. but what exactly, does it mean?

  • hes a schizophrenic thats all

  • I was really hoping that the guy at the bus stop was going to invite it to sit down. I thought that would have been a happy ending.

  • that was... deep. creepy, but deep.

  • Creapy.

  • This is something that sounds retarded when you describe it to others, but when you watch it its utterly amazing.

  • holy shit john that your brother
