Calvin and hobbes animation

[StormZephyr]

This is exactly what I imagined Calvin sounding like, only without the feminine elements in the voice. I think this is all right, the haters just wish they could do it better.

[dgreatunknown]

I like how it switches from B&W and color, like Wiz of Oz.

[genericsavings]

The comment before my own confirms that America is doomed and headed toward imminent cultural suicide.

[Redfizz12]

Can they remake it with English voices

I hate reading subtitles

[StormZephyr]

@Redfizz12 Dub it yourself.

[betoen]

I always thought that Calvin had the voice of a... nnnnnn, no, i never thought about his voice. But never a girl voice.

[jake5fiend]

If people keep saying Calvin has dyslexia and ADHD and in the comic strips he sees aliens everywhere, is it possible he might be a demigod?!?! ;D

[Justinpatsfanatic]

I have all of Wattersons Collectors books :D

[rashondgrant1]

why doesn't watterson pitch this to adult swim or cartoon network?

[rashondgrant1]

@rashondgrant1 nnvm i see he died

[sue119]

So true to the comic 8'D Awesomely done!

[CurtHowland]

What a perfect example of what public school really is.

[MrStickmanSteve]

at the beginning Calvin sounded like a little japanese girl having an orgasm

[chickendance346]

You should've make hobbes pounce on him

[215GhostFace]

not to be weird but on the wall in paint it looks like it says s-e-x

[catdog02474]

This short is on my fake 2003 VHS of Calvin: The Movie and it has the THX logo

[Gibbagobba]

Why is it in Italian?

[boolengleng]

I like calvins voice in this, and I could see myself getting used to it, but its still weird I think jus cuz its Italian.

[Darkone225]

I would love to see them officially make a cartoon, then my childhood would be restored.

[redMrCrayon]

Please. Somebody make more. This was funny and to be honest, looks like it was made by a true fan. Maybe you made this, maybe you didn't , but if you did, make more please. This is a service that is in VERY high demand.

[Jonathankiller100]

I like this but make it English next time

[Canada9990]

wow, this was animated PERFECTLY, and the voices were pretty good well

[DAngelLilith]

Loved it, the only thing that bothered me was the high voice for him... then again most kids that have don't have deep voices.

As of the language people got to remember this is the WORLD WIDE WEB. English is not the only language in the world.

[LordWellington15]

I like peperoni pizza.

[SunnyPee12]

I still like the books better :)

[MaxChaplin]

Why does Calvin sound like a whiny girl?

[13neirad]

if only it was a real show ):

[izzibrooke]

With y did they put it in like French or idk but they messed up a good cartoon -:( and y did they make Calvin sound so weird sheesh

[emyx360]

@izzibrooke it's actually italian...I do agree it's awful but not because of the language...just because I think people shouldn't made cartoons out of C&H...just as BW wanted!

[scw0611]

wtf. bastards. Don't spoil calvin and hobbes by putting it in whatever shitty language and voiceover. Dickheads. Ruined my perfect day

[RomeTwinStudios]

Where did you get this? Its interesting, and I loved the cominc!

[Fails90]

How Do We Make It Back To English?

[Fails90]

Hate The Animation:

Is In Italian

I Live In The United States

[Turrtl]

SUDDENLY

A CALVIN AND HOBBES VIDEO BECAME A DISCUSSION ABOUT PIZZA

AND THEN EVERYONE WAS CONFUSED

[Yukiseim]

I always imagined Calvin having a much lower, more sagacious (smart) voice... After all, he was based off of the famous, French theologian, John Calvin. And I always imagined Hobbes having a jolly, optimistic voice (Thomas Hobbes). but that's just me...

[thebeatwoman]

ma che cazzo vi fumate?

[Shadowandespio]

To clear things up, it's FREAKING Italian.

And why do you people even care.

[Shadowandespio]

IS THERE AN ENGLISH VERSION TO THIS!?

[Kolchao]

its italian dumbasses

[Carnage0000]

it's italian.I'm italian so I know it

[kevink11]

You guys sucks, it's cleary russian!

[yoescuchometal]

It's italian...

[MrYoungProd]

Its spanish u dink

[InSAnHackZPrO]

Ummm he is speaking chinise

[LulzGenerator1023]

How can we understand it if it's in F*CKING CLING-ON?!

[macandfriends]

0:54

haha, I remember that comic

[puut4991]

I would've liked the voiced to be SLIGHTLY deeper and a language i can understand :P

[flatondacouch]

I liked the animation but the language was kinda annoying

[thefred2659]

at 1:01 look at the words

[andi111]

best calvin and hobbes animation ever thumbs up if u agree

but the language.....

[Silverluigi98]

???

[D353RT5TORM]

aw, this was kinda cute...

[WiiFan12341]

I though this sounded kinda spanish....

[mspickleh]

This is so awesome

[myaskovsky2002]

It's in Italian...

[superleviathan]

Does anyone know the piece of classical music that plays at 1:19

[cryoworld1223]

For the record people, the makers of this piece are italian. Not spanish. Gotta love living in an area with a strong italian background. <3

[LabRatProductions1]

this would be three times more awesome if someone could translate it back into english.

[thatsofuckinglame]

@LabRatProductions1 you know, there are subtitles at the bottom of the animation...

[Cratalziano]

I sense a movie in the making...

[AbeLandPro]

:53-1:01 I remember that.

[MWolfL]

This was fun to watch, the animation and story stayed true to the comic. Also, thanks for the subtitles, I'm lousy with foreign languages. I mean two years of Spanish and I can't even remember half the words I learned. Stinks really.

[Pokemoncards990]

th kid is a mental man!

[WackySquirrels]

why the hell is it in Spanish!?

[yaledioma93]

@WackySquirrels

è in italiano pezzo di merda

[theholafriendola]

um... to all of the people asking: it's in Italian.

[MrLazyAzn]

Curse the French...

[Foobyking9000]

cool, but why is it in Japanese?

[bitzrulz]

@Foobyking9000 cool, but why is it in italian?

[bianczdcutewitch]

Calvin's screams are CUTE. =))

[x3madcandyxD]

It's is in italian :) I think calvin's voice is verry cute, but not how i imagned it, calvin and hobbes forever!

[cayerbe]

I'm Italian and they speak Italian not Spanish , I also speak Spanish

[cayerbe]

Is italiann

[96dnibrats]

to all those curious, and all those ignorant, this is ITALIAN. the spanish and italian languages derive from the same roots so thus they might sound SIMILAR at times, but they are NOT. you have been learned.

you're very welcome.

[haojie1998]

it looks like it is in malay to me.

[darkatnight17q]

what language is it in?

[Turrtl]

@darkatnight17q I'm just gonna say pizza and let you work off of that.

[ProjectRedfoot]

@Turrtl IS IT GREEK!?

IT'S GREEK ISNT IT???

[Cows2Luv]

@ProjectRedfoot it's spanish.

[96dnibrats]

@Cows2Luv you know that italians also use 'si' for yes, right? i think this is actually ITALIAN, not spanish. but nice try. just the way they speak and the accent they use isn't 'spanish'

[benmakalinaw]

@Turrtl Italian

[TheMasterTelevision]

@Turrtl Could of swore it was Spanish.

Whatever.

[puut4991]

@Turrtl Ah, So it's Russian :3

[davski95ak]

@puut4991 no its not.. its spanish

[HaoleJames]

@Turrtl Pizza is an American creation, just sayin. but it is funny that the video says it's in italian but there were still questions about it

[hazface]

@HaoleJames technically it was the Romans who invented the idea of Pizza, but the modern day Pizza we know and love originated in Italy as Neopolitan cuisine. The Americans had nothing to do with it.

[HaoleJames]

@hazface damn, well thanks for sharing the knowledge

[pspdipendente]

@HaoleJames Pizza is an american creation???dude,are you serious???pizza was in italy a lot before your fucking country was even discovered!!

[HaoleJames]

@pspdipendente bread with cheese on it isnt Pizza you dumb fuck

[pspdipendente]

@HaoleJames that's odd,it's exactly what i was gonna say,go read something about pizza you ignorant moron!

[HaoleJames]

@pspdipendente I did the research and thats how I know, maybe YOU need to do some research. and just so theirs no confusion, thats when you look in a book or go on the internet to read some facts

[HaoleJames]

@pspdipendente dude, on the real. go do some research of your own

[JesusIsMyRoommate]

@pspdipendente well its not found by italians but italians made it famous because they are really good making pizzas

[pspdipendente]

@JesusIsMyRoommate guys are you kidding me? i even cheked out ont the internet,they say pizza was born in italy,even the name "pizza" doesn't it sound a little italian?sure not american..

[Gutierrezg97]

@darkatnight17q Portuguese

[bunpika121]

@darkatnight17q

...spanish.

[joh04667]

@bunpika121 ....italian

[bunpika121]

@joh04667

oh, its italian...

Oops XD

[Cows2Luv]

@darkatnight17q If you know even a bit of languages other than English, you would've heard Miss Wormwood say "Si, Calvin?" while the subtitles read "Yes, Calvin?" and si means yes in SPANISH.

[joh04667]

@Cows2Luv its italian dumshit

[Cows2Luv]

@joh04667 dont call me a dumshit, motherfucker.

[joh04667]

@Cows2Luv well then dont act like you know everything.

Dumbshit.

[Cows2Luv]

@joh04667 Die in hell. 

[joh04667]

@Cows2Luv If i were in hell, i would already be dead, and would not be able to die again.

Dumbshit x3

[Cows2Luv]

@joh04667 Dammmmnnnn! You are one crazy ass motha fucka.

[TheWomblemaster]

@darkatnight17q martian

[yaledioma93]

@darkatnight17q

ma sei ritardato?...Italiano

[MrLemon6545]

@darkatnight17q quella strana lingua che io chiamo italiano (that strange language i call italian)

[Shirozarusama]

@darkatnight17q I think it's in Spanish.

[MrLemon6545]

@Shirozarusama è italiano amico

[TheEbonyshadow1]

calvin has a voice..... but it doesnt sound like this

[dragonbanes]

is that what he really sounds like

[Diggler397]

LOL! your mom looked fine last week!

[ChudFapper]

This is very well done, and both accurate and respectful to the original.

I was always against the idea of turning Calvin and Hobbes into a cartoon, as I was positive it would lose the magic the strips had, but if it was done like in this short, it might actually work.

[DagonSaves]

This is quite charming, and very well done. I really, really like it, but I think that, since Calvin and Hobbes is an American comic, I think it would be appropriate to use the American spelling of "Mom."

Otherwise, very well done!

[thedorkinabubble]

This. Rocks. Period. Wish somebody had actually made a real cartoon series out of the whole thing. I would've watched it, for sure. :)

[quiksix25]

Calvin sounds like Elmo. Just can't put voices to these characters.

[enigmamonkey92]

its true, calvin has a voice in my head, but i dont know what it sounds like

[13mungoman13]

@ thedorkinabubble

It actually wasn't made, because Bill Watterson didn't want it to be made (He said he was scared of what Calvin's voice would sound like!)

[RoyFive]

Hobbes is right!

[ChrisandSimon]

Anymore like this?

[Haseorunemanga]

man i love this

[Eviljackson1]

voice is wayyy to whiny =P

[titanviewsit]

comics are better in my opinion

[NGistDerFuhrer]

LOL'd @ Calvin's mom

[bizmontalvo]

thanks at least i know spanish

[chokochipify]

awesome vid. please let the english version come out :) :)

[waffle668]

please please please let the english version come out!!

[AtomicBobBomb]

This just made my day. Thank you for uploading this.

[Righton2000]

That TOTALLY captured it! That's what it is meant to be! I PRAY for an English version!

[mech1478965423]

lol in the comic strips calvin sounds like he's 16

[Rodrek89]

lascialo in italiano per favore :D :D :D

[Annika170blind]

I love the fact i speak italien

[gyneman]

I'm not really sure if I agree with Calvins whiny voice.

[IosonoOtakuman]

I think it's perfect...his voice is the same one of Bart Simpsons.

[gyneman]

That is not Nancy Cartwrights voice! Sorry, but you are wrong!

[IosonoOtakuman]

The italian one, genius.

[gyneman]

You should have clarified that, genius.

So what you are saying is that the italian Bart Simpson is an agonizingly whiny voice also?

[IosonoOtakuman]

Since it was already italian I supposed it was obvious...

Not exactly...the dubber keep the voice a little deeper.

[gyneman]

Since everyone was typing in english, most would think otherwise.

[IosonoOtakuman]

But since the video is in italian language...

[gyneman]

Since you typed in english....

[IosonoOtakuman]

Well excuuUUuuse me, princess! Just kidding...

I typed in english 'cause if I wrote it in italian (I'm italian, if you did'nt get it), surely only few persons could understood it...

[gyneman]

se hai scritto in italiano, la gente poteva solo tradurlo.

is that right?

principessa?

anche scherzando!

[IosonoOtakuman]

Unfortunately, the most of the people is too lazy...Am I wrong?

[SecondaryFreedom]

tutti sono pigro. è per questo che c'è youtube!

[IosonoOtakuman]

You're right! XD

[YoungGillian]

any english ones? thats what i am looking for.

[VisibleInk14]

WOOT.

The very first line literally translates, "Silence, children!"

I'm glad im taking Italian at school. I can understand this w/o the subs! xD

[PochiPlushie]

Incredible, I always thought it'd be horrifying if someone animated Calvin and Hobbes, but this gives me hope (: This was an absolute treat to watch!

[TheDarthZ]

NO YOU SMART ALICK, I MENT HOBBES!!!!

[TheDarthZ]

awsome vid, wish there was some more hobbies.....anyway good job.

[surfingthechaos]

You mean like stamp collecting or something?

[mijj22]

I wish Hobbes appeared more. Cute,too.

[Sq1382]

That was great

[DrunkenLeprechaunPro]

Calvin's voice was absolutely PERFECT!! The animation was awesome, it was actually laugh out loud funny (at least to me).

If an animated series were to have come to fruition, this would probably be it...

[kargo100]

i dont usually like animations of calvin and hobbes, but this was great! :D really captured the essence of calvin's way of thinking.

[cagstoon]

What language is this? P.S. I love Calvin and Hobbes.

[Kristall2012]

It's italian

[Furienna]

It's Italian.

[TheSarcasticShow]

Mexican isn't a language! It's Spanish or Italian

[TheSarcasticShow]

I like it, but when I hear Calvin's voice or see him move, the magic of the comic is gone. Good job though.

[Turrtl]

Hey, I'm not trying to replace the comic here. I didn't even make this. It's a tribute though. I assume whoever made this made it out of respect.

[atombat]

This is as close to Bill Wattersons quality that anyone could hope to achieve, respect to the animators who diserve praise for animating the un-animatable :D

[rosesmellpoo]

@TheSarcasticShow ya you can never replace calvin and hobbes

[KoRnelius]

I agree that the strip is a too high quality strip to be an animated series, but this was wonderful! It was very true to the strip I must say! But still this short is very beautyful, but if it should turn into a series, then the quality would fall and it would be a shame...

[colemac11]

I wish bill waterson alowed the people to make a animation.... I love the comic so much, to have it become a show or something like that would be awsome.

[spunkycomics]

Alot of the images are almost exact duplicates of certain strip frames.

It was... interesting... I definitely prefer the comic strip.  And now even more so believe in Watterson's refusal for the strip to be animated

[WaCoproductions]

maybe someone could make a dubbed version...

[gothexperiments]

very good!!!!!!! Belisima!! grazie!

[Myleio390]

if you wanted to make a perfect replacia of calvain hobbes and animate it. then you can just take some of his strips that flow very well and then speed it up and you have animation.

[10truefreak01]

It does stay very true to Bill Watterson's creation, but doesn't include include enough of Hobbes. I think I would have rather the animation be Calvin and Hobbes arguing like they usually do.

It did do a good job showing Calvin's overactive imagination, and the animation and art work are of high quality for this sort of animation. Most of the art stays true to Bill Watterson's style, although occasionally seems to change into something different. Look at Calvin's mom at 1:29

[10truefreak01]

But Bill Watterson did a good job at making his art work move. I'm not sure that this cartoon captures the movement the comics did. The color gets the job done. I know trying to recreate the artistic way Watterson did the colors would be exhausting and expensive. So it did work with what this was trying to achieve, but expecting more would be asking too much.

Whoever made this put a lot of time and effort.

It's a good animation, and it stays true to Calvin and Hobbes. A very good tribute.

[Mangafun93]

E con la doppiatrice di bart dei simpson! dove l'hai trovato?

[Mangafun93]

BELLISSIMO!!!!!! per di più in italiano! grazie mille!

[cookie123456789012]

This is good! It looks a lot like the cartoon book

I have to admit, this was the best calvin and hobbes animation I've ever seen! Congratulations, I think you really captured what Bill Waterson was trying to do.
