The Joy of Destruction

[CarloZzToVaR]

Amo este video! ♥

[rajangking]

german track :)

[minecraftmythsbuster]

Minecraft sound at 1:01

[treydog3000]

Destruction: Things are meant to die and be destroyed so they can be re built

[Bitta32]

@treydog3000

can you rebuild lives? once you died, you died.

[treydog3000]

@Bitta32 when something dies it comes nutrients for other things to grow like food trees grass which helps other thing live and grow there for yes try thinking next time before making stupid comments

[Bitta32]

@treydog3000

Yep, but don't join dying and killing. Those are different things. At least for humans, who have no carnivor instincts.

[Timpjsh]

What do you guys in germany call the chocolate, creamfilled candy at 0:51? Thought it was a typical dutch thing. They used to call m' 'negerzoenen' here, wich means niggerkisses. They changed it 'kisses' though :P

[Drumstyle6]

@Timpjsh same story, but we just call it "choco-kisses" instead.

[FoxLostInLove]

I laughed at tobi singing!

[rocknroll680]

It's funny to notice that the music is rather calm and the images sort of childish... while destruction is nothing but the opposite!

[mofomoofish]

Am I asleep/stoned?

[Belteshazzare]

was that 0:29 splash sound effect from minecraft? hah

[M4W482]

@Belteshazzare That sound effect is in everything.... And not even close to minecraft.

[pauseTV]

Brilliant, well executed & a good message.

The saddest part was, the pristine island getting overdeveloped by hotels & such.

[Butling77]

0:59 HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAH­AHA

[MrPoohdude]

sm thing to think

[theliveing]

Makes you wonder why we find this so funny dosent it?

[swiinka]

A bit odd, but hilarious.

[10DegreesBelow]

minecraft water sounds ftw

[AnneNymus]

@10DegreesBelow lol that's exactly what i thought :D :D

[AnneNymus]

@AnneNymus NOOO ALL MY BLOCKS SWIMM AWAYYY

[LiveLaughLove0321]

It's smart that they left the card house untouched.

I'm pretty sure most of the viewers were expecting the card house to fall, which reflects our desire to destroy things

[hatethepolice12345]

@LiveLaughLove0321 i didnt look at this like that , interesting view on this film ;)

[hizbollah]

PARTY!

[zoeWH]

I laughed the whole film..I don't know why I found it so humiliate : p

[RozoviySlonia]

Не смешно.

[K3RS]

Song is about a famous killer Mackie Messer. Combines well with the film. For example, check the first lyrics:

Und der Haifisch, der hat Zahne. Und die tragt er im Gesicht.

Und Macheath, der hat ein Messer. Doch das Messer, sieht man nicht.

Translation in English:

And the shark, he has teeth. And he wears them in his face.

And Macheath, he has a knife. But the knife, you cannot see.

Then the lyrics go on about the killer, his history and of course, his killings. A truely horrible song.

[ThePatlashKurex]

cooooool!

[B3ZKRES]

Pasatiempo favorito de todos...

[Itchydos]

0:58 true destroying

[samisverrycool]

at 00:28 the guy pushed a fridge into the river, when it went in it was a minecraft sound, right?

[dyma95]

This is... Depressing omg.

[Nukedown]

OMG Why didn't he collapse the cards!!! NOooooooooooooo

[SAC25BATS]

i love this song :)

[Sochiin]

Song?



[SAC25BATS]

@Sochiin

they tell you the song at the end.

[Fantasiponnyn]

i feel terrible of the human race sometimes:/

[fingerminger]

Amazing!

[bradmaempel1]

1:00 Minecraft bow sound xD

[Qntkka]

And the cat fits in...how?

[ShesAnOddOneInntShe]

This is somehow both depressing and hilarious at the same time.

[HoneyIveHeardItAll]

It's interesting to note that the German song in the background, "Mackie Messer", is about a murderer/arsonist/rapist.

[YarieRod]

Adoro este video c:

[eRadiCatE87]

das mit der pusteblume find ich iwie gut ^^

[schnacker41]

Haha I didnt notice that he was singin in german until a minute into the video.. he sounds really weird singing that

[Avian98X]

@schnacker41

genauso gings mir auch.. ^^

[AnAverageJho]

PanzerKampfWagen IV!

[TheMeight08]

does anyone know whats the name of this song?

[gabriel3374]

@TheMeight08 "Mack the Knife" or "The Ballad of Mack the Knife", originally "Die Moritat von Mackie Messer", is a song composed by Kurt Weill with lyrics by Bertolt Brecht for their music drama Die Dreigroschenoper, or, as it is known in English, The Threepenny Opera. htt p: // youtu .be /kY-yMPd4LYc

[gabriel3374]

Since every human being is killing something in its life, if wanted or not, he gets fairly dull to all kinds of destructive things a flower becomes a bug, a bug an animal, an animal a human, that human a related person and from then it is not far to mass murder. but good thing to keepa hobby, llke the card house :D

[rabidfish02]

Yay, futureshorts is starting to upload worthwhile films again!

[therealKINDLE]

In a sentence, we’ll destroy this wonderful planet before we're civilized enough to handle it.

[MiopTop]

how surprising, german

[DurexDurpaneu2]

NOT THE GOLDFISH!! WHY THE GOLDFISH YOU BASTARDS!! Lol

[kevin4free]

that dandelion one was the most powerful.

[iurigregorio]

Easyer solution, destroy earth with 30 a-bombs.

Problemz?

[penniecore]

why i find this extremely cute? aha nice one.

[ORAINY1]

da hell ?

[pcance1]

@chainX , not in the case it is a betrayal kiss, then its way more coward than facing your enemy. But i agree with you, an embracing kiss, or a forgiveness kiss to your enemy is the most courageous one.

[spongeboop5]

1:02 allow the mouse man. he aint hurtin' nobody. D:

[pcance1]

@thelastkoraido yes, it is from a poem by Oscar Wilde I love very much. Ive read it many times and yet, i never came up with the idea of St Matthew! thanks! your very acute!

[happyberry17]

@ kapanihan

Hahahaha!

Call me sick but I got a real kick out of this. It was horrific but the music and animation is fantastic.

[kapanihan]

after 0:34 my inner child started crying.

and my adult self started laughing.

[swellemcee]

Nice



[guzsaj]

it really does feel joyful

[fabianfucci]

Animation seems to need further work to reach the level of joy.

[BaconJaws]

HE SHOT A UNICORN?!

[Kasslermannen94]

Humanity in a nutshell

[manobilification]

1:19 - it'd make a brilliant postcard!

[rajangking]

fuck yeah, the best scene has been the meeting of the vacuum cleaner and the blowball xD

[rajangking]

fuck yeah, the best scene has been the meeting of the vacuum cleaner and the blowball xD

[NagyBalazs]

Warning! This video may contain too mutch of human emotions. :-)

For all machines, they're under 3000 TByte/sec raw information processing capacity: here's an age limit. They shouldn't watch this.

[vlogameir]

Truly inspiring <3

[Ichimaruu1993]

I was eating..

[TheSweetjonny]

Is anyone else really annoyed that the card house was left untouched??

[vivekpatankar]

@TheSweetjonny - No. Not really. I guess it's symbolic. A house of cards is destined to fall. Everything else needs human intervention.

[TheSweetjonny]

@vivekpatankar Yeah, that's a good way to interpret it. Makes sense really . . .

[stuntman01427]

@TheSweetjonny I think that completely proves the point this video was making.

[joemanses]

@TheSweetjonny I think that was the point

[smokeb3atz]

@TheSweetjonny it means illuminati rules the world 

[Akco007]

@TheSweetjonny Think thats the pont.

[TheSweetjonny]

@Akco007 Yeah . . . . I get it. Doesn't change how I feel.

[tetragramatonadr]

@TheSweetjonny

La intención era que quisieras eso al final ;)

The intention was that you wish that at the end ;)

[6020e3]

@TheSweetjonny i think that, in the end, that's the point of the video. you want THAT PIECE OF SHIT CASTLE DESTROYED, BURNT, CRASHED, BOMBED, FUCKED, SMASHED !!! hence the name: "joy of destruction".

[CollaborationSeries]

This is sooo sad!

[BruckLeee]

Bravo

[Msgoddard85]

Did that just give me cancer????? What the fuck just happened?

[LaughterLeah]

AMAZING :D i love things like that! A little bit of random a little bit of stop motion animation and a little bit of small yet beautiful things in this world! oh and maybe a few deaths xD

[MyNameIsDavification]

O.o

[sushirrockandoll]

Beautiful

[downedyouin2]

Wtf did i just watch? o.o

[samacooler]

What did I just watch?

[imLIBERZz]

0:26 minecraft water sound :D

[FrohmanEliteMovies]

@imLIBERZz Im also pretty sure I heard the minecraft arrow at some point.

[r11y55]

i dont get it.......

[ad4m258]

what the hell just happened in my eyes?

[Exzeluke]

Loved it, especially the great sound effects. And the fish scene was hilarious!

[AJT305]

this film is poo the house of cards didnt even fall over *huff*

[PouresMaggie]

Lol @ the fish!

[1lilmissgiggle3]

I found this as very insightful and a brilliant idea!

[rainbowpig97]

lets destroy this video?

[petujaymz]

@rainbowpig97

stfu u racist rapist

get ur dik out my ass

[MythOfEchelon]

Give it a couple more days before someone tries to find some hidden meaning in this video (I bet they'll reference the building of the card pyramid)

[MrBlomu]

Great short film!

[lilmaz]

whats the point

[Eddieliebe]

Good video Art :d

[BillieRazvan]

what is this? where's the weekly pj harvey clip?

[Terrakinetic]

Xaver Xylophon sucks at Street Fighter.

[Terrakinetic]

@Terrakinetic 0:52 He's also a sore loser.

[theckp]

I liked it but it did remind me of David Shrigley / Shynola video for Blur. Were these guys inspired by it?

[petilita]

Pythonesque

[pcance1]

Yet each man kills the thing he loves,

By each let this be heard,

Some do it with a bitter look,

Some with a flattering word,

The coward does it with a kiss,

The brave man with a sword!

[thelastKoraido]

@pcance1 is the kiss referring to Judas's kiss and the sword to St. Matthew when he cut the roman's ear off?

[Audiofreund2]

@thelastKoraido its oscar wilde lol

[Audiofreund2]

@pcance1 oscar wilde

[ChainX]

@pcance1

Flailing a sword around takes considerably less courage then embracing your enemy with a kiss.

[21circo21]

@pcance1

or a m16 a4 service rifle .. oorah

[JacquelineReneeMusic]

Destruction is a form of creation.

[MadLordInotak]

Very entertaining.

[555mambo555]

Strangely is true...

[pantarhei7]

There is no creation without destruction. Shiva knows.

[squiddey4]

The proof that this video works is in the side videos - look how many relate to destruction!

[iPodGameNerddottube]

BOBBY

DARIN

[geopny]

its simply amazing

[cosmogirlteri]

Very creative and smart!

[CharlieWatchs]

A strange mix of joys you can relate to e.g shredding paper and ones not many can e.g beheading and blowing oneself up.

[kalmius7]

to build anything, something`s got to be destroyed

[irishdude69]

this was rather disturbing

[chuckcity8]

A rather dark (but relevant) satire

[pinoyboy579]

what is this i don't even

[sushilover37]

CAn somebody PLEEEEASE tell me the name of the song?!?!?!

[ncho0]

@sushilover37 Moritat von Mackie Messer (or mack the knife) from the three penny opera. In this version performed by Max Raabe

[FitrisCZ]

@sushilover37 1:34 :)

[sushilover37]

@FitrisCZ Thank you very much, makes me very happy ;)

[Thsiscool]

I liked it. I can see the metaphorical and the literal messages. :D

[Vacre7]

@Thsiscool What messages are you talking about?

[Thsiscool]

@Vacre7 Well it's obvious what the video is talking about. You could easily see and get something out of it. It's just up to you if you can shape what it means.

[Vacre7]

@Thsiscool I'm not interested in what I can get out of it. I'm interested in what you got out of it.

[Thsiscool]

@Vacre7 Well I'm glad that you're one of the few that actually want someone's input. But to be brief, from this short film, I can understand the violence and 'destruction' because we humans are naturally violent. We can see this throughout history. But because of the background music, the film wasn't that dark and it gave it a more 'silly' feeling which can also have similarities to this world which we call reality. A bit vague and probably weak, but that's my brief summary of my opinion.

[Vacre7]

@Thsiscool Thanks for your input.

[dutchbert420]

There is beauty in destruction not joy

[yurianne07]

0:52 was that my HoHo?? :(

[donbolhone]

Now this is art!

[OHMYGAWDsomething]

Loved how the mood went from somewhat humorous and not very serious to dark, cruel destruction

[bluemoonstardust]

mankind history.

[alancheese]

the fish one ruined ALL of this for me, otherwise amazing.

[arauzxa]

@alancheese how?



[Bitta32]

@alancheese

watch "Earthlings"

[101binary101]

This should be a Robot Chicken Episode!!

[HEADCOUNT2008]

did any goldfish get hurt in the making of this video ?

[TheThunderWall]

Lyrics, Please

[zestytoaster]

didn't like it

[colazilla]

Wait...what?

[urablahblah]

Man, ripped off Minecraft sounds galore.

[awesomejoe12]

The fish made me lol

[cscdigitalgraphics]

This video captures the entire human civilization so well. We are all a little bit destructive at time.

[favoritedeadpeople]

Wonderful.

[wilkinsox2]

this is so me right now

[HarrysMovingCastle]

I like this, it reminds me of Terry Gilliam's animations from Monty Python's Flying Circus.

Well done! :D

[SHIMMYshookmybone]

True nature. Leave it to humans to build or generate only to distroy such things and ourselves in between.

[king6238]

Good job, but it was kinda sad (as in emotional wise...that's why it's called joy of destruction?) saddest part was the slums, with...I can't say it, I'm crying, well done

;) I mean :'(
