1. The boys often say “beans” as an expression 2. The boys claim to enjoy consuming beans and bean-related products, i.e., Justin’s all bean diet and BeanJuice 3. The boys have used “bean” as a substitute for “brain” and “mind” The boys enjoy eating brains and it is not out of the realm of possibility that they are zombies, endlessly shuffling toward their bean reward; the only word they can begin to form with their mouths: *beans...* QED
i just love how Justin calmly says "...is it your mind?" right before Griffin shouts "MY MIND!!!" like that's an older sibling vibe right there he knows him so well
Two things I love about this animation: 1) how Griffin twists up when he says "the three balls are back in their original cups!" 2) how your perspective grid reminds me of the Car Boys Gridmap
The way you drew Justin is so true to life, the little frame where you draw his nose solidifies it this simple lineart version is more him than the most elegant of paintings
every once in a while this pops up again in my recommendations and it just reminds me that there is so much good in this world and 63% of the goodness lives on in the mcelroy brothers
this is the best mcelroy animatic I've ever seen, I've watched it about 20x and my boyfriend is really tired of hearing "my bean!" from a few feet away
I am living for the totally uninterested "your mind?" from Travis at 0:20, it is the epitome of "older brother is done with littler brother but he goes along with the joke anyway"
First - the animation is kickass. I absolutely love how you characterized them! Especially Griffin. Which brings me to... Second - I fucking LOVE Griffin. I should have favorites, but damn he's hilarious.
u know what i do after work? eat shit, lay down, take a 2 hour depression nap and wake up thirsty with a headache. so props to you dude, this animation is awesome!
noah fence but i watch this like every day this is actually my favorite video thank you for existing i love you and your art and your ??? um actual amazing skills
For what it's worth, this might be my favorite video on RU-vid right now. Well friggin' done. The animation slays me. All the attention to detail. The expression on his face the first time he says 'my bean.' The way he *spirals* up (? !) as his mind gets freaked again. The flopping around. I just love it. Bravo. EDIT: I forgot Travis' laugh at 1:00.
this is legitimately the video that taught me that Justin McElroy is NOT the guy with the beard, as I had been imagining him the entire time on Monster Factory. I swear to god I've never had so much difficulty telling two people apart by voice alone when I've legit invested hours into watching / listening to them.
It’s okay, I had the same problem listening to TAZ for the first time, I could not tell Justin & Travis’ voices apart to save my life for the first like, 10-20 episodes
I keep coming back to this video because RU-vid keeps recommending it to me and every time I see it I just HAVE to drop everything and watch it again. It's the best curse I've ever had.
