Taste of Nostalgia - A Moving Aniboom Animation by Raymond Lau

[bla1bla2bla3blah4]

Great depth and while the animations and modelling weren't 100% at their best, it makes the viewer stop, think and empathise with the character, which is the whole point.

What I can't understand though is how such obvious things slipped through a net that obviously had a lot of effort put into it. Things like 3:11 where the fingers on the hand are just a little too disjointed. Or throughout when his forearms were the size of his shoulders. Or at 1:39 with the over the top expression.

[jojo23mojo]

life goes on ....

[willuberpants]

old minecraft...

[karatikid100]

What ever happens, don't give up, stand up and go along your way..... i love your videos, they make me thinking about my own live....

[mrmartini14b]

You guys make great videos but I wish there would be some happier ones...also I didn't understand this one as much as the others

[hepi55]

grandfath,,,take pains

[trennick]

shittily*

[trennick]

pretty shiitty made.

[Aliquantisper]

I would've stayed. 

[arandomperson3]

Man this was one of the saddest short 3D animations I've seen.

[ActiveFrame]

dude u guys who r making fun of this is sad for u guys

[LILJNOS14]

He was touched by jesus

[nikkwapz154]

The old man is a real fapper

[iimagictrix]

whats the animation called were a baby bird or something tries to fly ?

[boo11095]

@iimagictrix i don't remember the exact title but the bird was a kiwi if you look up kiwi animation i'm sure it'd be there it's pretty well known

[mpimarceau]

There is no age to feel that pain and it's true the sensation is so well represented!! We get frustrated when the body is tired and we can't work anymore! And no one can help it, patience is the justice.

[thisisITalia]

poor thing... :-(

[iwaithere]

@thisisITalia Un "poveraccio vero"..... BUT he certainly didn't do himself any favors by further injuring his hands,... smashing them into the table and the floor.....AND why is he cheered by that drab-ass lightbulb coming on? Wait till he sees the electric bill at the end of the month! XD

[ThePlatypusAgent]

Well that was depressing.

[burzum83]

i am so bored of preaching movies, that old man should sell his shop and become a guitarist if his hands are moving so much

[MultiLucy234]

aww. my eyes got wett.

[andrasiboti]

@MultiLucy234 Just like your mom's pussy!

[spacturas0evil]

ah damn i have no feeling when i watched it the first time....but when i re-watched it the second time and saw batforjustice comment and started to understand then i started to cry it made me think about my grandparents difficulties.

[netheadcreations]

upload this and your other videos to 3dtv.com so it will convert to 3d. Great animations!!!

[thematch471]

can you make me a video about nationalism please

[ginewesley13]

It is sad, but true. :(

[kasssaid]

i don't want to get old!! :(

[draincris]

i wish i knew what song is this.. is so very adorable.

[09lealily]

poor old man

[SHANYPRINCESA]

hey! Aniboom! did u make the audio also???? or where is it from??? because is really good! Congrats!

[pupssiikk]

fuck i cried..

[09lealily]

@pupssiikk i was close to crying

[bniht]

i litteraly cried. I really... i really cant express how i feel about this. its... so sad.

[WRKAQARG]

:'(

[RodgieTvTube]

I always get sad when I see old people working their ass off for money their children wouldn't give...

[09lealily]

@RodgieTvTube same

[ratman1982]

I like all your video! they are very nice!

[fumafuma0323]

So sad :(



[baochauvn1987]

the light represents hope

[whimsicalmitch]

This is one of the most saddest things i've ever seen.

[beshi46]

Emotional :)

[mexanoe]

Aw, I thought of my Dad. He has shaking hands because of Parkinson Desease and he move so slow because of old age...my heart's breaking...

[mcdoalyne]

plsss make more animation like this one

[PrivateAngel89]

I cried,

[zapofdeath308]

@PrivateAngel89 same here bro

[acelya0614]

me came the tears

[pudgepie14]

I also really like how at about 3:29/3:30 the man looks at the lightbulb in what looks to me like thanks. Ten the lightbulb flickers back and says your welcome:)

[pudgepie14]

To me the light represented God. When we have bad days and lose our our way from the light we see it as if the light abandons us. Gives out on us. If we reach out for the light we realize that the light never gave out. He will always help us from our brightest to our darkest days. We just need to first reach out for Him.

[1989Nihil]

Sad yet beautiful. I agree with batforjustice. It also shows that even though no one appreciates nor thanks you for what you've done, don't give up regardless what age you are or what you might have been through, just keep on going. Because someday there will be someone to give you the respect and honor you deserve.

[hilakera08]

i love my grandfather!!

[welton293]

this video make me proud and make me cry

[BellaSilvery]

My fav animation, I'm so glad I found this... It moved me and gave me the strength to keep on (though i'm not an elderly) :) <3 <3

[BellaSilvery]

i love it

[animeluverotaku]

i felt sorry for the old man.

he reminded me so much of my grandfather.

he had to be put down because of his sickness.

but i remember him saying "just 'cause im old, doesn't mean im worthless!"

and then he go's around the house fixing things and lots of other tough jobs i can never do.

i miss him so much after i watched this :'(

[jedilovespotter]

i actually cryed at this felt so sorry for him

[beshi46]

This is very emotional, I can't imagine our generation without the elderly people

[CrazyMegaMexican]

this shows how younger generations need to show respect for their elderly. this man has diffuculties and he find trouble with it.

[SMoshFreak456]

awwwwww.

[Roxanisation]

Wow, Im impress.. Thats very nice!

[tonytouchzz]

Wtf with is forearm?

[BellaSilvery]

@tonytouchzz It kept shaking koz of the illness and the hard work

[tonytouchzz]

@BellaSilvery nah, i mean: wtf with the proportions of his arms xD

[BellaSilvery]

@tonytouchzz They were swollen

[hk00671]

i like it so much ^_^..... keep going

[TheCynthiasramos]

But ...why ? That customer was a real jerk

[AntiVaccine2]

@TheCynthiasramos see my vids& learn herbs as reishi,rosemary,kelp,dill,dock ETC

[TheCynthiasramos]

Darn .......very moving ......wish I could help him out

[smartinio1]

Amazing video!It shows not to giving up anything because of a problem!

You can make the problem ability!

*Cute old man:)

[batforjustice]

I think it portrays how how age or handicaps can affect your ability to do things. And to show the frustration that comes along with it. A sad truth is no matter what age you are or what happens to you; there are a lot of people out there that will treat you like a has been without ever saying thankyou for what you did and what you are trying to do. This could also be applied to the child support more is never enough mentality.

[alteclansing3333]

man i didnt know computer characters could over-act, jeez

[cscdigitalgraphics]

A beautiful sad story. We need to treat out elderly people better.

[caravelleize]

i dont like it

[nanaonepiece]

geez i wish i can jump to my pc screen to help tht grandpa seriously remind me of my father always2 working hard for our famly :(( thnk you dad i love you :')

[guitarlee37]

who ever made this is sick old people deserve respect

[1995marines]

@guitarlee37 its the whole point is to make us feel sad and know that being old is not allways happiness some people are struggling to make a living even when they are old. there is a lesson being tought here.

[BurritoBazooka]

@guitarlee37 I think half of the point of the movie is to show us why we need to have empathy with old people, and especially those people who are not as able as us.

[spooxpoody5]

This seriously almost made me cry :'((((((((((((

[spooxpoody5]

Beatiful...The beggining made me sad :'((

[21collei]

great idea.

<3

very sad but there's a big lesson behind it.

[SoffritteraKia]

:'(

[TheTdwpforever]

make more physcotic animations like the monster one

[TheEggsandtoasteire]

This is hard to fap to

[MagiaSan]

Anyone else think he looks kind of like Colin Mochrie?

[cityofage]

It was moving...but I just.... if you need help, hire someone to work with you...

[123LovelyLily]

No matter how small it may seem, there will always be hope and you should never ever give up. Fight your hardest every day and make every day count because you never know if it will be your last day.

[rmiac2]

What a moving dipiction of the struggles of Parkinson's disease. It made me cry.

[Marie11999988]

that makes me crying.. =(

[hnnahoudvanjou]

never lose the hope

[Russiansaur]

This is why old people are unemployed

[TwiCaCaX]

Is aniboom an asian?

[NintendanGX]

seeing this guy's great work, i just have to subscribe

[TheChelsie08111995]

um. im going to be truthful....i cried a litle

[tytezz]

Damn I'm getting there quick

[123LovelyLily]

This is such a sad video. I'm crying so hard that my head hurts. I want to go in and give him a hug and work for him for free and pay him so he doesn't have to work all the time and that he can retire.

[The3GameMasters]

this made me sad :'(

[LeDetectivefou]

C'est une très belle histoire! Snif snif

[97kevinhuanle]

I didn't get half of it, but it made me sad.

[luftwaffe789456123]

i think its because he saw that he can still do it so he regained his confidence.....not some girl explanation like will show you the light hilly billies.

[wannabetefii0pink888]

:'( triste

[urbanawp]

DID he have powers ?

[0oNothingo0]

beautylissy02 I think it's because he proved to himself that he could use his damaged hand again. That just what I think though....

[beautylissy02]

*cries* i wanna give him a hug. btw can someone tell me why he regains faith in himself by turning on the lightbulb?

[rockonawesomeness]

You have to reach up and work hard at something acheive and the light will show you the way :')

[CrashUNDEFINED]

the new disney :)

[vampxftw]

Dude this was just amazing! i love to watch animations like this, and would love to make my own. How and what program du you use? And many hours did you use?? :DD

[ShallowThoughts]

Dude should just freakin' retire already. Just because you have a product to sell doesn't mean there's a niche for it any longer.

[juniormybaby]

that was amazing. it was really heartfelt

[ronstero]

I'm going to shoot out my brains when i'm 50 so i wouldn't have to go something like that.

[anihiliste]

Oh, fume... Oh, despair.... Oh, enemy old age... As usual, animation makes fun(jokes)!

[superraxxo1]

this is the happiest thing i have seen in my life....or

[BOBSTERJOSH]

love it.

[6cowhuggers]

Aniboom is amazing wow this video is just pure genius

[jorgearevalo4080]

jus awesome clip love it

[x3Laii]

I must cry O;

Amazing ♥

[AdrianHiitman]

Someone really should help him.

[Felippe1306]

Very Bealtiful!! T_T

[conniepig0401]

taiwan?

[SuggaBloopers]

nawww bless him :'(

[carmenliujiawen]

this is the best chinese animation ever seen!!! thanks so much!!!

[truknayr23]

Great job man... just simply great!

[B8Av3]

I unsubscribed a while back because of the significant lack of episodes such as those like this one and because they were getting vile. It's good to know I may have been wrong and I think I miss this form of viewing creativity anyway. Consider me back in your subscription box, Aniboom.

[theredphoenix96]

this video somehow..reminded me of my DAD..i would treat him better starting today..

[LeaClaire1996]

this video made me cry.. I somehow realized the everyday hardships of our senior citizens.. from now on.. I'll treat old people with more care and understanding

[SittingMooseShaman]

... if one understands anything about the "Cost of Doing Business"(sadly though, generally isn't taught in the USA anymore)- one would understand the oldmans' exaggerated shock.

'Pain' has many faces! Yet "Hope does spring Eternal..." That light-bulb he turned with his nerve-damaged hand- gave him an idea- as his subtle expression reveals.

He's gonna dump the denial and go with what he's got! Good for you, my dear fellow!

...and still, that customer needs to learn, & express civil patience...

[ArmoredHurricane]

Great work, real piece of art aniBOOM

[vascurten]

This almoust made me cry and I loved it

[N7ProtoSpectre]

Carpal Tunnel!!!

[blue0fear]

@N7ProtoSpectre more like parkinsons!

[Cucooon]

我的阴茎，中华女子硬呵呵



[MrAceofSpades99]

See, I love seeing animations like this one because it reaches out to you and you get a feeling inside of you and you kind of feel that this is real. Amazing aniBOOM, keep on posting animations like this one.

[aniBOOM]

@MrAceofSpades99 Thanks for watching!

[BrickHeadDaniel]

just a tiny bit depressing but still pretty good for an animation kool man

[luffy52217]

dude that was sad i almost tearedup insdie

[WhiteAce3]

wonderful!

[DasherX]

I love when Aniboom comes out with videos like this. Very elegant very sad. I do, however, agree that the jaw-dropping was a bit exaggerated and on the verge of comical. Keep up the good work!

[aniBOOM]

@DasherX Thanks for your input and glad you enjoyed it!

[THEDARTHSIMON]

@DasherX well i think the jaw-dropping is to show the ''shock'' he fills

[goatmoe]

I took it a bit differant than everyone else.. I saw that there was still a little magic left in him... almost inspirational.

[MsFireflies94]

LOL POPEYE!! HAHAHA OK

[Feather722]

it hurts my soul......he tried so hard...no one deserves such treatment :((

[mattsmint]

no wonder he was losing control of his wrist look at his fore arm

[mrfrisk007]

That's sad

[lyingpancake95]

This was kind of depressing =[ but a good animation...

[OmmTigers]

thanks for posting

[MateoJFR]

AniBoom hasn't posted a video like this in months... me like

[meow6939]

That guy that asks for the soup is impatient give the guy a chance!

[falak94]

Be an optimist; Always !

[Luminareo]

My grandfather died of Parkinson's a few years back...

Certainly the emotions the old man feels are appropriate.

[Berqify]

And this is why should people make children.

[gaaragaro13531]

I wannna cry !

[TheLaurenify]

Give the old man a chance :[

Poor him....

Lighht makes him happy

[99gab]

poor guy

[the16v17]

A beautiful piece of animation (:

is it animated by a Singaporean?

[TheDadda80]

boring

[Zanian19]

Another nice video. But what is really sad is how many people have stopped watching Aniboom videos on YouTube the last couple of years.

[dragonbrat]

Nice, sad animation, but I think that some of the old man's expressions may have been too exaggerated. When his jaw drops, it's almost comical, getting the point of disappointment and surprise across, but not the emotion that goes with it.

[LaMarAzura]

This is it !!!  Animation should be so Beautiful like this one!

[anima2221]

@aniboom if ur a boy, when I grow up, can I marry you?

[Eddythebandkid]

why did popeye open a soup stand? and where is his pipe and spinach?

[lnitadelaluna]

so sad so real so beautiful...

[epicnessism101]

the audio in this song was like killin me, i cried and im bummed out

[syleriam]

...What's the Big Deal? That's life: You born you grow up you get adult and your died...

[epicnessism101]

@syleriam everyone know that, just no one wants to grow old and die!

[W3ST4WAY]

well. now i'm all bummed out...

[poopymashine]

stop being so sad aniboom

[fireking0113]

wow that was sad:(

[ComaBoy05]

Why didn't he just have his grandson work for him?

[mztguitar]

@ComaBoy05: cause grandson was already working at the fastfood restaurant...:)

[FragileBitch]

This is rare one. Japan's anime now a day fill with big eye girl big boob or baby face heroes or something like that. This one just made me feel positive for japan's anime again.

[RyuDarragh]

@FragileBitch: Fortunately, the anime/manga communities are not, by any stretch of the imagination, all there is to Japanese animation or art in any media.

[BlauFeeMM]

:_

[Dreddenoth]

what moving is in this i dont get it . yes is sad and true :D
