4 Minutes-with Madonna's permission?* The Rock-afire Explosion

[RHGarciaApr85]

Where were these guys for the last Super Bowl halftime show??

[exotique98]

Cool

[a9saragirl101]

this vid is kind of scary .....

[planetchinchilla]

Can you do paparazzi by lady gaga? Or just dance by lady gaga?

[megustaverlas]

He looks like Justin, maybe better!

[funlovingreek2008]

Looked like Dook was off on the beat, he wasn't playing right?

[blueaura78]

This may be one of the coolest things I've seen so far this year! I have fond memories of Showbiz Pizza as a kid.

[DisturbingDounut]

wait was this from showbiz, because i thought it was closed a while back. the characters are fairly similar to chuck E cheese, which was after show biz. did they keep the animatronics?

[andymission]

is this for the CREATOR?

[Akhilendra2010]

@andymission

No, his name is Dook.

[Akhilendra2010]

Uh.. is Rolfe's eyes messed up? They're blinking separately.

[BriMinus150]

ahahahaha this is awesome XD

[nonnahs918]

This is really freaky

[monimonihellohello]

[CIGARPIGSKIN6]

[bearflorida71]

[tylermoviepro]

Was this like your first video on YOU TUBE?

[CacaPooPee]

This is genius! Thank you!

[pierqueer]

this is much better than an actual madonna performance!

[williamkatt81]

Hey Aaron... I am a vimeo user too... Look me up there... I got a bunch of CEC videos there and I hope that you will pop by and watch them... My name is Pamela Parrish over there.

[bryan0REX]

scary

[Agogaraxis]

it scared the hell out of me as a 4 year old

[dodgyrommer]

Gah Dook is hilarious!

[dodgyrommer]

Why thank you!

[sidewalkpilot]

great work. time consuming and expensive.......... we all appreciate it -

[araprincessa]

esta padre

exelent

[MetalFacedMonster]

LMAO!

why do i love this video so much?!?!

lol

[williamkatt81]

bring back the RAE... I LOVE THIS... I love Duke's ears as they bounce as he is playing .. AWESOME!

[ultragor]

Glad to see this back up!

[mishyprizes]

So many questions like why is the girl bear thing a cheerleader? Why doesn't she and the other robot with the yellow lemon puppet have an instrument or at least a microphone or tambourine.

[CharonTheSabercat]

Question 1: She's a mouse, and she's a teenager so little girls can identify with her.

2. She doesn't have an instrument because she's a singer. The robot with the puppet (Rolfe, who's a wolf) is a ventriloquist, and he can't play an instrument.

[SoraRoxasdude1]

Actually, your wrong. Rolfe does play a instrument. He plays a cymbal.

[CharonTheSabercat]

I don't think really think you could call it playing. Every now and then, he just remembers to hit it for emphasis.

[showbizpizzablog]

No, a couple times he hits it on a song.

[puppetsandicecream]

I love this!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[bettythesuperapple]

cool... but really creepy!

[mishyprizes]

Robots made to look like teddy bears animals or dolls always creeps me out.

[roxyersox]

the moving eyes always freaked me out

[BraveChild]

fitting the gorilla is timbaland....lmao.PERFECT!

[bonemongrel]

this was great :D

[CardboardComputer]

I really like the movement of the camera between the girl singer and the drummer. Also the spotlight on the drummers face was great.

[sethmusic]

i didnt like this choreography as much as the others....its too busy and the guy obviously has no clue how to entertain

[seelowitz]

Seth: let me pose this question to you. How many shows have you choreographed with life-sized animatronic puppets based on technology circa 1980? Until you put out something better, I'd shut the hell up and let the guy do what he obviously likes to do and does well, I might add.

[Skeleton1581]

These STILL scare me, but it is amazing what they can do. It is very good computer programming. These guys must have invested a lot of money into these electronics! Good video, keep it up guys!

[vladifire100]

lol this really funny

[snpyph]

the dog actually looks like Justin Timberlake...this was a good one and "love in this club"

[rabbit0877]

Naw..the dog is cuter.

[snpyph]

true the dog is cuter than JT.

[jarrod93a7x]

nice vid man keep it up funny shit :)

[hplazer]

i saw this on carson daliey two nights ago this is awsome marcus cox sucks peace austinpalmer is awsome

[whiteraevyn]

OMFG, this is hilairous.

[jazmella]

LOL This is so freaky! Yet...so freakin' AWESOME!! Yet...I'm gonna have nightmares...YET! I can't look away!! lol

Nice job!! :-D

[SashaSimone07]

i love this one!!!

[waynecs81]

Where I lived back home in Buffalo, it was Showbiz, then changed to Major Magic's. That went out, but there's still Chuck E. Cheese's. This was awesome, but really wanted to see the keyboardist do the whole Timbaland outro at the end.

[pizzacam]

Damn, not bad Aaron! The movie was great too! It sucks you and the rest of the voices aren't as close anymore... That does suck when you lose contact with close or best friends...

[Shelton09az]

Where did you see the movie???

[Cheezbat]

Absolutely love this vid! Great job!

[dwaldron1991]

i love the beginning boo

[wardlemike]

A child of the early nineties, I was familiar with Chuck E. Cheeses but I had never heard of Showbiz Pizza until last night. And these videos? The best thing since sliced bread.

[rabbit0877]

I'm a child of the early 80's. Chuck E. Cheese was all i knew.. but yeah these vids are pretty cool.

[mariposasabrosa]

THIS IS MADE OF WIN!!!!

[jstevensmail]

This is absolutely amazing. Thank you for posting these.

[uofl3000]

madonna really cleans up nice

[candersonmiller]

In terms of getting Haxored, you're an idiot for thinking you can get "hacked" on youtube. In terms of the actual art of making animatronics - I'm thrilled with your results. You should think of doing it on vimeo because it doesn't look like crap there.

[fanprograms]

I'm an idiot for lots of reasons but not for thinking I can be hacked. I was hacked several times and have filed a lawsuit against them. Why would you say it is not possible? What does "Haxored" mean? I have posted on Vimeo, but no one goes there. I am open to all suggestions and am still learning. So, I do not take offense at your comments, but invite you to give me more details on these subjects. Write me at my email address which is posted in my channel profile. Aaron

[nahnah660]

@fanprograms "Haxored" is geek speak for being hacked. He used that because he obviously fancies himself/herself a computer guru. 3l33t haxor go!!!

[showbizpizzablog]

@candersonmiller

asshat

[musicboy96]

ditydodger u cant type u sukker gohave cancer wuth ure family

[Shelton09az]

you're just as bad as him! lol

[hacwind]

muzikboi an dirtdoger r both faggets lol

[BrutoDaBurlyGoon]

Another seamless presentation, your art of combining music to the movements of the characters is absolutely flawless. Even back in the day, it was wonderful (from what Ive watched on Showbiz Pizza of earlier works) but you can see a massive amount of creative growth, Mitzis eyes moving in tune with the words, awesome!Wish Fatz would get a song though, he seems to have bit parts in the newer stuff and I really like him. Though to be honest everyone else is really growing on me too, just amazing!

[maypril26]

:12 BOOOOO!!!

[theryanator]

i love the little guy at 2:05. he look so scared. he's so terrified of what's going on

[Lane74]

wtf???

[samplistik]

I must say, I absolutely love the camera work on this one! The zoom from 2:03 - 2:08 is an instant classic!

[musicboy96]

dude u lye that were are not under attk to hackers you ssay that so u kan have much subscribers nub

[fanprograms]

The hacking occurred all through the month of June, 2008. We were repeatedly hacked into and the channel taken off the air for periods of time. The threat is still very real. I still copy down the name of every subscriber in case I need to contact you to give you a new account name.

[memommy3]

@fanprograms me to but thay stop when i found out when i got a nohakers progams

[SoraRoxasdude1]

Nah, it's real.... Why would he delete his popular videos?

[dirtydodger]

mussik booy u r dumm an shud gow kil yoorself

[thestoneofvolcom]

madonna didn't need any more plastic surgery on her. pretty soon we'll have two mj's in the world. and thats 3 too many.

[HotZombieBoy]

Haha, what happens in Chucky Cheese after hours???? LNFAO

[SkullNBones11]

that's freakin' awesome.

[ilovesoccer15236]

LOL thatis *funny*

[wankytheweasel]

I love it!

[engebren]

That mouse will give me nightmares!

[RockeyJesse20]

cool

[Locothrope]

whoa! that was so awesome that madonna actually guest starred for you! Seriously! I didn't think she'd do small time stuff like youtube appearances, but damn. Good that she's still active with her audiences. Though that cheer-leader outfit looks a little dated on her.

[xxafrodisiacxx]

lol jokes

[blauebanane90]

Ich find datt so lustig, hab mich voll weggeschmissen....und Timbaland als Gorilla passt ja auch xD xD

[thenekoling]

i'm so scared... but i can't STOP WATCHING IT

[makotophoenix]

rofl

[Clanmemberkalvin]

this is fucking awesome!!!

[cnugent2]

r4ight now that mouse thing looks better than madonna

[PokingSmot77]

rock afire owns it!

[grumblekin]

This is better than the real video. You are seriously kicking some tail with this series!

[bbond82]

This bring me back to my childhood in a way that no singing animatronics should. I loved Showbiz as a kid!

[mrjoshua1983]

I went to Showbiz Pizza once when I was 7.  never went back of course. not because it was renamed to Chuck E Cheese, but because of the freaky animatronic things. Scared the crap out of me. but now, almost 20 years later...not so bad...kinda.

[MCPunjabi]

thats almost as good as madonna herself lip-sings

[readkollmomo]

u kno...she does kinda look like shes madonna's twin

[b0rg9]

Mitzi's kept her youth so much better than Madonna.

[morrislevy]

Timbaland: Breakdown! LMAO...

[Incruentum]

We only got four minutes to save showbiz pizza!

[sugarhana]

madonna looks really good for her age as usual in this video.

[soadtoxicity316]

she looks like she wants a good slice of gourmet cheese

[Jorfer88]

These videos are awesome

[MiniBreakerMax]

Im scared ..

[fjfhfjhhj]

i rember when show biz pizza place made the robots i notced a diso ball and a stage i thought it was a concert then i hear noise and there the were but came Rocky & The Ramblin' Rascals

[fjfhfjhhj]

i wish we could sue chuck e but then we would sue showbiz pizza place plus why would they waist 6,000 dollars on chuck e cheeses i mean rock afire explosion totall better i remeber whe first went there sure they gave me nightmares but still they should keep them

[fjfhfjhhj]

i cant belive show biz pizza bought chuck e i mean this is awesome and better in so many ways

[soadtoxicity316]

rockafire used to be at pistol pete's pizza in az too..creative engineering contracted more then just showbiz for this

[blairbear13]

i dont get why people even bother commenting and watching this video if they hate RAE? i mean whats the point? if you hate it dont watch it or search it or comment badly. geez. i liked it :] good lip syncing! (like alwayz)

[Orit96]

thats in israel ^.^

[vig0609]

I miss Show Biz pizza so much!

[mj339]

look s like madonna too.. is that other bear supposed to be some kaballa worshipping A-ROD?

[zupersponge]

O YEA THATS WHAT IM TALKIN ABOUT!

[amunson14]

this is AWESOME

[TreesOfBaylor]

this is nuts

[missedagain]

These are fucking terrifying.

[Kenidashi]

I think this is where I posted first. All the videos have amazing choreography, but I think the camera work for this video is the best of all the ones you've put up. More like this, plz. :D

[fanprograms]

Thanks! We're investing in better video technology and putting as mich time into the video production as we are in the programming of the choreography. It all has to work together..Keep watching as we take it to the next level. Aaron

[lennard07]

Dit is fucking koning.

[chloelaughstoomuch]

lol!! thats awesome!!

[willasname]

why do rolf's eyes blink separately?

[fanprograms]

Why do your eyes blink separately?

[butteredcat]

Oooh, willasname got SHUT DOWN.

[fanprograms]

Oh My Goodness? Who is willasname and what is his relevance to the RAE?

[butteredcat]

Some guy you told off, and I lolled. I like all of your videos by the way. I am hoping for Never Gonna Give You Up next. Nice job man.

[fanprograms]

Oh..I didn't mean to tell him off. I was just giving him something to think about. I meant to be nice and somewhat humorous.

[SoraRoxasdude1]

I think he's trying to wink. I dont think its a programming issue.

[fanprograms]

Yes..That's right..You should see my dog's ears. She is a Doberman without getting the crop job. Her ears are amazing! She is my inspiration. Duke really gets high when he plays the drums. It's just a rush for him and sometimes his ears go crazy.

[youngcalihottie]

hahaha love the "well how 'bout-choo" zoom in on choo choo :P

[GirlXIraqi]

lol!! great video

[beftube]

brilliant. Love it so much I posted it to awesomeoverload

great work

[fanprograms]

Thanks Tuesday night I will be selecting the next song to program. Stay tuned for the results from the fan bidding and the winning song. Aaron Fechter

[JaMaLgUrLz]

lol cute. looks like a hard job.

good work

[jamesadamthwaite]

someone went a little happy with the drummer's ears... do they really need to bounce like that?

[SoraRoxasdude1]

no it just looks cute and like a really dog, it shows his emotions.

[saterpstra]

lol the drummers ears make me crack up evertime

but this is amazing stuff

[rapidset]

ohh la la id like to sort the mouse chick out i wonder if she could animatronically jack me off ?

[SoraRoxasdude1]

lol.. wow dude thats really sick.

[ahoff64]

wow. tick-tock tick-tock with her ears? nice touch.

exactly how much programming time actually goes into this, i wonder?

[fanprograms]

It takes about 40 hours to choreograph a song like this and then another day or two to create the video if nothing goes wrong. However, stuff happens, like valves sticking and needing repair, or bodies flying apart that can set you back and leave grease under your fingernails. I'll do a "making of" documentary for a new show soon.

[samcondy970]

oh my god.....im scared

[spsimmons]

FREAKIN AWESOME!

[LeCortegeFunebre]

why is timbaland the monkey? lmao

[SoraRoxasdude1]

not a monkey... its a dog

[CharonTheSabercat]

Not TimberLAKE, TimbaLAND.

[geezohpetes]

This totally works. And I do think it's better than the Madonna/JT version, ha!

[jamesharvey]

BRILLIANT

[MrBigglessworth]

RAE forever!

[Muffinhead2729]

You made my daii :].

[Xornvestite]

I think this is better than the actual video for the song.

[kirbuschrist]

The camera work is really good. IT shows you have a dedication to your fans to give them a product worthy of their bids. Consider me a fan of yours.

[ArmyRu]

It's like being smacked in the face by my childhood. I love these guys, and I really adore the way mitzi's ears and eyes go back and forth during the "tick-tock" portion of the song. I'm only sad that I will never be able to hear and see them live again.

[dreid10dreid10]

I like the Usher one better. This one jumps around too much and doesn't have as many wide angle shots.

[thelmick]

I agree, the video moves around too much on this one. In some of the newer ones the lighting is too bright. Usher one is the best so far.

[plign]

shit...:S

[tainagatinhalilina]

oi td bem

[bomkillerpower]

WOW Sexy RAT!!!O.o....

[Silver7Bird]

this song fucking sucks

[Muffinhead2729]

then why'd you watch it? it said what song it was in the title dumbass

[POVELITELY]

LOL

[chatanoogaz]

I like this better than the real video. Madonna looks more natural here.

[Madonnafanforever]

Madonna ROCKS!!!!

[veraxico]

Madonna is also going to latinamerica, She said she love the latin people and she wish she was latina! thast why she have a latin child! she just had a record in Mexico, She sold 90.000 tickets in just 2 hours in presell for her first show, now there is only 10.000 tickets left for the regular sell! and she is presenting 3 shows in mexico.....

[AMANOTAVANTA]

its like getting wired..you guys a frickin wired,..of the hook!
