That was probably the only "real" Hertzfeldt moment on this... Because the rest was so scripted to; "Look, you have to reference all your animations on this gag, so people can recognize your work"
The "I still love you, Homer," and the "I will never forget you," those two lines are the most powerful phrases I've ever heard in The Simpsons, especially in a couch gag alone.
Actually, I think the most powerful line here was one that you would have missed the significance of, unless you were on the lookout for it. "All animals can scream". It seems to be a statement that every living thing experiences suffering. Even though living things SHOULD just be shaped by evolution to be machines for reproducing themselves the most efficiently possible, for some reason, the same forces have shaped them into having this other thing in common with each other even though they came about that same result independently through adaptations to many different conditions, that existence is pain for everything that lives by its very nature.
I love how this is Don’s way of showing that overtime, the Simpsons have become so flanderised and product-driven, to the point that 100,000 episodes in the future, they are all spouting a single catchphrase or telling you to purchase merchandise (even Marge says “dark lord of the twin moons”, which someone in the comments theorised was a reference to Mickey Mouse and his ears). Then it cuts to flashbacks of other episodes where they love each other and have at least some sort of sentience, right before cutting back to them all spouting either their one catchphrase or random words.
yeah i could see how this could be baffling to someone not familiar with his work, but i was just thinking the whole time "this is the most don hertzfeldt shit I've ever seen" lol. this guy's got a very distinct style.
Homer finally remembers amongst what his family has become, Homer is still alive inside but can't do anything about the flanderization. He remembers when they could do something about it the only way they knew how to: love. As Marge says she will never forget him the episode ends and presumably switches to a new season, the one this short takes place in.
I've always loved Don Hertzfeld his blend of surrealism, existentialism, and dark humor I amazing from his little online animation redacted to his amazing film it's such a beautiful day he will always impress me with his talent
Thank you Jacob Geller for bringing this wonderful opening to my attention. Seems that even in its perpetual death spiral, The Simpsons couch gags can still surprise us.
a commentary about the extended runtime of the show inevitably leading to its own trajectory into meaningless garbage is somehow an own on the people making that exact criticism?
Forgot it a long time ago. She's repeating it cuz it was important for the former version of her to remember this simple truth. And she kept repeating it, but eventually forgot the meaning of it. Now, the sentence's substance is forever lost, as she's now a mindless and empty creature
I think it’s very powerful - it’s about the Simpsons being immortal, long outlasting their original purpose and now reduced to absurd parodies of themselves. Homer remembers when the show still featured them as a family and not just spouting advertisements and repeating catchphrases. The line “I will never forget you” appears in perhaps the most abstract scene in the short, right before Homer realizes they might has well have already forgotten each other in these new forms. He is saddened by the Simpsons’ loss of purpose and structure.
How did the showrunners allow this critique on the show? Don't they constantly try to refute the argument that the show has now become bad? Did they just not notice it, or do they just not care? It's a beautiful couch gag with a sadly realistic message, but I'm just confused on how it got allowed.
My friend showed me Rejected a while ago and I've known about It's Such A Beautiful Day for a long time, but I didn't know they were by the same guy. Now that Jacob Geller made that video, it renewed my interest in Don Hertzfeldt's work and I was able to order It's Such A Beautiful Day on Blu-Ray, so I'll finally be able to watch it. I love Jacob's content so, so much.
I STOPPED BEEMING THE SAMPSANS INTO MY CRANIAL NETWORK AFTOR SEASAN 20,003 I REALLY DIDNT FLAP MY FLIPPERS AFTER THAT. PRAISE BE THE GODS OF THE TWO MOONS
This couch gag really is brilliant. Almost single-handedly justifies the existence of modern Simpsons, because then we wouldn’t have this perfect satire of it.
I've just realized that the homer of the future at one point remember the love that there was in his family in the past episodes (you can see the number of the different episodes in the upper center) and then he feel sad because he realizes what is family is become
The strange misspellings of most words remind me of even right now, languages of the world are constantly changing. The English we spoke 500, 200, even 100 years ago is not the English we're speaking now (for example, "nice" once meant "foolish" by the 1500s). Who knows what it would look like hundreds of years into the future?
I though this gag was from the new season... then I look the description... 6 years has passed. He knew it. He knew what was going to happen in a few years later.
This is why things shouldn’t and don’t last. Because if they did, everything would just become deformed to the point that you can’t recognize it anymore. That’s why I don’t want me or anyone to be immortal. edit : heyo! this is indeed my opinion, and is not actually a fact! i was pretty disturbed and upset by the video at the time of writing this comment! please understand that!
Whereas should we advocate the process of coming into existence like a storm, or at the very least aspire to be impactful. Which it in itself stirs the ocean, changes something, express and/or address a message/point... Pretty much “does its thing”. Then, it quietly exits the stage after it has brought forth its case to the table of discussion. Leaving the world to ponder about it in the serene wake after the storm.
Quite the statement knowing it doesn't stand on anything don't you think? The only thing we know of immortality are our own depictions of it. Depictions that come from a specie doomed to die and therefore forced itself into believing that their fate is just and that the alternative was a curse. It's easy and even logical to have this mindset when you have no choice in the matter anyways, but when the day come where we will be given the choice this mindset will only be detrimental.
1:34 this specific part of the "gag" is what gets me, there are so many different emotions that it provokes (comfort, horror, nostalgia, despair, love, just to name some) the date of the episode is unreadable which just leads to the conclusion of how far this specific episode is into the history of the show which i find terrifying the music choice fits really well too (Chopin, Nocturne Op. 9 No. 2), it gives a sense of security and that life goes on but with a sense of melancholy in some way
I honestly think this is like the only Simpson clip I've seen in at least the last ten years that managed to feel meaningful. Such an powerful critique of the "Zombie Simpsons" era of the show, where all characters have devolved into empty shells of who they initially were in service of pop culture gags and endless nonsensical pop-culture infested plots , pusing this critique even futher showing how the show will basically never end and keep devolving into a formless mess where even the characters will have trouble remembering the good times as they were like 1000 years ago and all the recent shows will keep getting worse and less coherent over time. I'm amazed that the Show greenlit this hard-hitting critique as their official couch gag.... They really captured the essence of the fall of the simpsons and the minuscule pockets of humanity and emotion that remains in a sea of neverending mediocrity.
"I will never forget you" This has such darker implications like everything was rest and the simpsons were brought back using random assortments of whatever was available which is why they are now nothing more than an assortment of catchphrases and merchandise.
I always cry on this clip. The idea that there is a kind of inconditional love, that can defeat time, physicality and even human purpose it’s so beautiful. That makes life worth living. The idea that we can feel love.
The thought that in the far future, when human evolution has reached a point where people shapes and behaviours are completely alien to us "present people", advertising is still a dominant force that override brain processes, is oddly terrifying.
Don has a sort of unifying theme amongst his works. The issues with immortality and the importance of living in the moment. Our mortality gives definition to our lives (what is happiness without sadness? what is good without bad? and what is life without death?) but what happens if we don't die? According to this couch gag, we live to the point where we no longer recognize ourselves and become satirized versions of our past. If we live an infinite amount of moments forever, what importance does it give to the one we feel right now? What if the future gets worse and worse and worse?
*inaffectually slaps face* "Still love you, Homar" Been breaking down crying to this for the last 20mins, Their love is eternal and they will love each other through everything, The toughest situations, they'll always end up together.
when around age 5, most people struggle to hold memories of when they were a baby. around age 14, you struggle to hold memories of when you were a baby or when you were 5. It gets worse and worse as time passes, losing memory of more and more of your life. Our lives aren't long enough for this to get much worse without other mental conditions like dementia. However, if something keeps going and lives forever, what memory would be left?
Am I the only one who is interested in what Grandpa Simpson would look like as one of the sampsans? I would imagine him as one whole leg that ends with his head and he would have 4 tentacles and 2 on each side and his main slogan would be "I'm still cold" and I would imagine Patty and Selma as 2 walking cigars who keep coughing
"The Dark Lord of the Twin Moons" might just have been random ominous dialogue adding to this fever dream scenario. But in the case that it wasn't, it reminds me of the Disney logo, three-circled silhouette of Mickey Mouse. "Dark" because it is colored black, "Lord" due to the authoritarian nature of Diney's business practices, and the "Twin Moons" being Mickey's ears.
This is what Star Wars is like: a franchise that has devolved into bizarre, shallow nothingness that only spews catchphrases, sells merchandise, and looks back on better times.
Marge and Homer will love each other as long as they exist, it doesn't matter if their reality turns the very concept of who Homer and Marge are into an unrecognizable form and substance.
"All animals can scream" is actually an interesting thought. If there are animals that don't really talk or make unique sounds they at least screech. A lot just can't produce any sound whatsoever but you get the idea

its so emotionally powerful especially from couch gag
The whole tone of this couch gag dragged "It's such a beautiful day" out of my repressed memories and I'm now clinically depressed again.
Some poor grandmother had a panic attack watching this when it aired
I always cry on this clip. The idea that there is a kind of inconditional love, that can defeat time, physicality and even human purpose it’s so beautiful. That makes life worth living. The idea that we can feel love.
Don Hertzfelt's work is very tonally similar to Matt Groening's early work. Those melancholic bunnies would love this.

Our mortality gives definition to our lives (what is happiness without sadness? what is good without bad? and what is life without death?) but what happens if we don't die? According to this couch gag, we live to the point where we no longer recognize ourselves and become satirized versions of our past. If we live an infinite amount of moments forever, what importance does it give to the one we feel right now? What if the future gets worse and worse and worse?

I thought this show was canned like 5 years ago. I stopped watching somewhere around the lady gaga episode.
Whatever Don Hertzfeldt touches turns into surreal,Wierd,psychedelic gold
"They'll never stop the simpsons" was a sad song after all
when around age 5, most people struggle to hold memories of when they were a baby. around age 14, you struggle to hold memories of when you were a baby or when you were 5. It gets worse and worse as time passes, losing memory of more and more of your life. Our lives aren't long enough for this to get much worse without other mental conditions like dementia. However, if something keeps going and lives forever, what memory would be left?
this was what introduced me to Don Hertzfelt

1:12 “MAKE PURCHASE OF THE MERCHANDISE.” I think that’s what Maggie’s saying
The mood of the part where there's only Homer and Meg giving me flashback of "everywhere at the end of time"
I somewhat believe that the simpsons will eventually evolve into this one day
Even the creations that aren't tangible or material rot and fall apart just like a painting fades away to only leave an empty canvas over centuries
So they really just drop this in the intro and expect me to watch the rest of the episode with my newfound existential crisis?

That's Undertaker's Reaction Undertaker: Bruh What The Fuck Did She Do To You On This Card Jonathan: Motherfucker! *Facepalmed* Pujols Don't Fucking Roast Me
This was the first thing that introduced me to this artist
This feels like a creepypasta.
Knowing the Simpsons, one or more of these things are gonna actually happen in the future
ALL HAIL THE LORD OF THE TWIN MOONS
I'll never get "still love you Homar" out of my head.
Classic Bart “DONT HAVE COW MAN” lmao
This was more engaging than the last 20-odd years off actual Simpsons episodes.
*WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT?*
It was the meaning of the universe.
Me had a same reaction as Krusty:
Future.
If "Everywhere at the End of Time" was animated.
that ending edit was perfect
