"48 Hour Film-Fest" Entry 

Don't bite the hand that feeds you

the message: never give your pet a knife

felix, i love your work, but i have to say: this is nowhere NEAR 48 hours long

Spore in a nutshell

0:44 “He stole my ice cream” “ᴬⁿᵈ ᵐʸ ᵛᶦʳᵍᶦⁿᶦᵗʸ”

"He stole my icecream!" "And my virginity" -The TV

We're all afraid our SIMS will do this one day. They can already get out of the pools.

I love the weird storylines that seem stupid but actually have the deepest messages

I only ever see this as: Never bite the hand that feeds you.

never bite (or in this case sever the fingers of) the hand that feeds

The dialogue in the hyper speed show: "Help the city is under attack!" "Where am I?" "We must hurry!!" "Yes" "Where seems to be the trouble!?" "Captain Maptian!" "He stole my ice cream!" "And my virginity" "This could only be the work of..." "Evil Selly Saish!" "I will get my assistant blob to steal the children" "Nooooo!" "But wait!" "A blob's #1 weakness is..." "A branch from a gumulg tree!" [Repeat]

Can we stop looking at this like "oh, it represents this" or "it represents that" I'm just surprised that HE MADE THIS IS TWO DAYS I CANNOT EVEN MAKE ONE DRAWING IN TWO DAYS

Seriously I can't stop replaying the sound at 1:05 It gives me the fucking creeps. Its the perfect mix of a really disturbing sound along with a freaky ass image of that creature screaming. Fantastic surrealism

1:09 CYYYYKAAA :D

Felix, you've become one of my very favorite animators and, more importantly, storytellers ever since I saw Double King. I'm always on the lookout for a new piece from you. Well done!

I remember watching all of these on new grounds. The nostalgia is crazy

We are killing the thing that makes us live, and we will die if we continue.

It took me a few replays but I got it. The hand was the "unseen force at work". The creature was fed and given shelter by it. Once the creature saw the hand, he panicked and cut his fingers off. The creature died of starvation because he could not live without the hand's help. Very nice animation, one of my favorites :D

Oh fun, it's like a theatre thing I used to be involved in where we made plays in 24 hours! Every writer is given an opening line, setting, an object, and a specific number of actors and actresses. Then they had 12 hours to write their plays, then the plays had to be produced in the remaining 12 hours. I love these kinds of challenges; they're super exhausting but somehow exhilarating.

0:34 when you find suger at your friends house

This is the moment I decided to consume everything this man has ever created.

0:24 love this sound

I can't even make a 6 second looping gif in 48 hours damn

Everyone: real sociological theories Me: IMMA FIGHT GOD

OMG THE CREATURE IS SO CUTE!!

Ahhhhh, don't cut the fingers off of the hand that feeds u, niiiiiiice

Holy moly. What a powerful image of man’s relationship with God. That’s incredible. We are given good gifts, but we seek for more. We destroy God in our lives and turn to our own man-made pleasures, like television in this film, but those pleasures do nothing more than kill us happily. If we would keep God at the center of our lives and honor him for our good gifts, we will live more enriching lives and ultimately feel fulfilled. For us, satisfying our bellies is too tempting. We do not seek to satisfy our hearts.

It’s very lovcraftion with when the creature sees its creator it becomes frightened. To that creature nothing could ever be that big.

Important rule: Never bite the hand that feeds you.

"We notice we need something once it has disappeared" we can understand it like that too I guess

Seriously your artwork, sound and animations are amazing. You truly are a youtube gem.

Reminds me of an old flash game called “Thanks Tanks!”

Maybe instead of being a message about religionists about humans destroying what we need to survive?

Everyone's interpreting the hand as god... I'd much rather say it is nature. All the conditions that made us, as the human kind, successful. Nature and our entire environment which we now pollute and destroy, eventually resulting in our downfall.

I appreciate how classic this feels

1:03 I demand a 10-hour version

1:05 *the sound I make when I get homework on the weekends*

This is fantastic.

1:07 best sound ever XD

-9 years later, If you're still watching this you're a legend.

1:03 hahahahha lol mandei esse vídeo em grupo e a pessoa riram dessa parte

No, more like: "If you give him a knife, make sure it's blunt enough."

I could sit and watch your animations all day

That tv show was great. Captain maptain really is my favourite character

That really is amazing animation for 2 days

Did you win?

I'm so glad this came back to my recomended

9 years later and I still don’t know what to think of this.

Talk about biting the hand that feeds you... *pun CITY

Don't bite the hand that feeds you. That's one of the things I got out of it. It's fabulous!

I am so glad I discovered this channel

Wow that’s amazing I love all of your work

TV: Help the sity is under attack!!!

1:10 Мне одному показалось то что он сказал "Сука"

Hello from 2020! It's currently 12-11-2020 (DD-MM-YYYY). I am happy to find a 9yo video from such an awesome creator!

If I see this in theatres that would be pretty damn cool

Who else paused to see what was on the tv?

0:45 “HE STOLE MY ICE CREAM!” “and my virginity”

Great work.. in 48 Horus. Idea never get so easily in less time and it's also matter of animation ans render time .. really I appreciate ur team. Keep it up guys.

the way it waddles is so cute

I regret using headphones now.

If it takes him 48 hours to make a 1:30 video now imagine how much time it takes him to make the ones over 2 minutes

I love your work man, you are just awesome! :D

"Do not bite the hand that feeds you" Atte:Somebody

I feel like someone has already made a religion out of this.

1:06 shitti

“Then I didn’t sleep for 2 days and this thing happened” well that just earned the upvote

Well done! For doing this in 48 hours... Wow! Now I know from what I have seen you do quite some strange, demented and smart stuff... Now this still has one hell of a good lesson behind it: "Don't bite (or in this case cut) off the hand (or fingers) that feeds you. What I love about your work is no matter how confuckulating and weird it is, it has a clear idea, always some kind of message or lesson of value and it's NEVER boring, Well Done my man, you have got talent like no other, plz never stop doing what you're doing 🤗💗

i think i sort of have my own interpretation of it now. i thought this was a mix between christian and normal evolution. the creature was created by an almighty being and evolved with it's help. to the point where it became powerful enough to destroy anything in it's wake, including it's creator. because of this, it also slowly destroyed itself.

'God is dead and we killed him' personified into a 90 second clip

"The adventures of Captain Maptain" is my favorite show

Incredible, all of this in only 48 hours.

1:08 Мне одной слышится что он говорит «мрмрм сука!» Феликс, ты шо русский??@-@

No jump scare at the end?

I think the lession here is: Never bite the hand, that feeds you. Nice animations btw!

Last year I entered to the festival too, it is so difficult and heavy... But, you? I wish you could win, man I love your projects, win another award!

Dont bite the hand that feeds

Firstly I laughed to the way the little monster ate the prawn... But then I exploded when I slowed down the speed to the minimum and read the story on TV... *"He stole my ice cream and my virginity!"*

I still remember when you had 500k subscribers Congratulations 🎊

Seems amazing that you did this in two days.

1:07 la mano dice ouchet

When you are in Minecraft creative XD

The TV shows are a great touch.

The sound effects make me remember flash animating days

Strange. It seems to be made by David Firth... Hey, Felix, ¿do you know David Firth? He makes creepy things like this, you know. Would be interesting to see an animation coproduced by you two.

Awesome animations Felix, Keep it up!

Love this guys crazy cartoons

That last part freaked tf outta me

i want to actually have a game like this, where u have a little globe and make creatures and watch them evolve and make stuff happen and controll it

This. Is. Amazing.

Aged like a fine wine

"You bit the hand, Marty! You bit the hand!!"
