Adventure Time: Finn’s God Complex Episode
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 15 сен 2024
- In this video, we dive into Finn's twisted journey of control in Adventure Time's iconic episode, "Little People." we explore how Finn’s mysterious bag of miniatures reveals the darker side of human nature-a taste for power and control. From manipulating the lives of tiny versions of his friends to experimenting with their relationships, Finn's actions echo a deeper psychological phenomenon known as the god complex.
But is Finn's behavior really that unusual? Join us as we discuss how this need for control manifests in everyday life, from video games like The Sims and Minecraft to real-life scenarios like matchmaking friends or even influencing public perception through social media. We’ll also touch on historical experiments like the infamous Stanford Prison Experiment to understand the ethical dilemmas and consequences of unchecked power.
As we analyze Finn's actions, we’ll reflect on the importance of allowing relationships and life events to develop naturally, without forcing or controlling outcomes. This journey into Finn's psyche offers a profound lesson: sometimes, redirecting our energy toward what we can control, rather than what we can’t, leads to a more fulfilling and balanced life.

Everyone Im sorry the beeps were annoying This Video Got Striked 4 times so I needed to improvise I figure out a better way to solve it if you enjoyed it You mind Liking and if you wanna see more of my content subscribing? Have a blessed day 🙏
W video bro
Great video again
How dare RUclips strike this video it’s amazing like all your other videos keep it up I’ll always be happy to see new content
I do not think it is about control in part not the whole I think it is the symptom of a larger disorder the blurring the line between what humans can rationalize and what they can not rationalize. Fogive my typos internet.
Universes is not a word.
I’m a fantasy writer. Of course I have a god complex.
Lol
I find it quite simple
When you're writing, youre essentially creating a universe albiet a fictional one.
@@jacejackson5253 yeah definitely. I make worlds with rich magic systems and history and stuff. I also like writing characters that clash a lot so that helps lol
@@ryannixon4138Same I like to give them unique personalities clothes powers and their own personal philosophies.
That's just him playing sims
Lol
@@MediaMunchies495 Your suggestion at the end about "focus" on "we can or can't control" is opposite suggestion from self improvement RUclipsrs, cuz you said focus on we can't control, and those self improvement RUclipsrs said focus on we can control. 😂
Hold on, the Stanford Prison Experiment is very well known to be a flawed experiment and inaccurate . The professor proactively pushed for the guards to be aggressive to create a false conclusion.
That makes it even more messed up
Yeah I had to stop the video because this was easily researchable, it made me not trust anything else that had been said
@@omnipresentsnowflake4698that’s not entirely the point of the segments reference. Most of this is all opinion based anyway and the message the experiment had was about control
Also proven to be staged
it's also a good lesson for a guy who has been growing up with hearing he is the hero, because "heros are always good and right" can cause a big problem when you simply believe it to stay true and is as simple as it sounds
Great character development
The reason Magic Man gives the bag to Finn is possibly that he had the exact same issue. He had no control over what happened to his wife so he created little people to control and torment. When he grew tired of everything, he passes the people off to Finn and says "I'm not coming back", which Finn echoes at the end of the episode to let the little people know that he wouldn't use them again. To Magic Man, his torture has to have some sort of twist or lesson to be entertaining to him as he views everything as a game.
I never thought of that thx
Bruh I actually started viewing finn very different after this episode
I mean he was still a child learning
I think finn is really emotionally damaged by the end of the show
Honestly same but I remembered he was dealing with stuff
@@MediaMunchies495I wouldn't say that. He went through a lot of trauma over the course of the show. He had his ups and downs. He experienced heartbreak, both romantic and familiar. Not to mention the physical trauma. But ultimately the show is about growing up and I think finn came out more mature by the end. Honestly by the time Distant Lands happened, the only clear emotional damage he had was his over reliance on Jake and the depression he felt once Jake died.
Same here it was definitely a turning point
This episode really helped Finn matured Alittle and stop becoming a huge Simp afterwards. It’s not the something Finn needs but he had to learn to not meddle into people’s business and how much you can hurt people though your actions
@@anonymoususer208 good lesson learned
I definitely have a god complex, but I'm willing to pull my friends up to my level to have fun together.
lol w friend
DND?
@@xSkysilver you bet, I'm the DM 🤣
@@carafurry7862 makes sense although I think being able to write a character's fate and plan it out like a twisted game really hits that spot, trust me I write fanfics so I'd know
This episode is:
"what happens ıf finn has sims 4 "
And answer ıs....
"Pb and finn play this together 7/24"
Pretty much yep
This episode could also be seen as a metaphor for a guy literally 'playing with himself'... If you get my reasoning... The way he shakes 'little Finn' that could be seen as a reference for him shaking something else, too...
Yea when he held 3 princess and did that I got the reference 😭😭
Wth
@@DivineDragon-wv5qh watch the episode... You'll get what I mean...
"watching the princesses date and touching himself" huh...
Season 4 and 5 was all about Finn going through puberty…his breakup was literally cause of a metaphor for a wet dream
This episode I think, more than anything, showed how afraid Finn is of emotional commitments and the uncertainty of the future. And these "little people" were essentially his way of testing every avenue, every possible decision to see where it could lead. Being unwilling to Jake's advice about just letting the things you can't control develop naturally, keading ti his overobsession with this outlet Magic Man maliciously placed in his posession.
Its an aspect to Finn still being a kid, yes, but its also a personality flaw that would take him to near the end of the show to finally resolve with himself.
Agreed
Hope you get famous one day man. Like 1M famous. Your content is so high quality
Appreciate it, I’m gonna screenshot this comment and comeback when I hit a million
Great video, Finn threw me off kinda when I was watching as a kid ngl
He was tweaking
Great content, but hard pass on the "anti-zoo" rhetoric. Some zoos are pristine organizations that use "entertainment" as a tool to make education about animal biology more digestible and tangible to its guests.
... And some zoos are SeaWorld. Or like. Tiger king. Lmao. Idk dog, shits complex. Dropped a like
Appreciate it, yea it’s a line we can draw with zoos who actually make it fun and are genuine sanctions for animals
Okay, name a few of these orgs because I am curious. I have been to several zoos in quite a few places, from Texas to Cali to fucking NC, bruh they are all the same to me.
@@LaztheLax It's important to remember that your experience of a zoo does not necessarily reflect the actual capability of the zoo's animal welfare and conservation facilities. We, as public citizens, don't get to see them for the safety and security of the staff and animals. But there are many groups such as the AZA, or Association of Zoos and Aquariums, which ensure any facilities that seek their accreditation maintain not only high standards of animal care but also enforce thorough and consistent monitoring of animal health on an at least yearly basis. I'm not expert on the subject and would highly encourage you to do your own unbiased research on the highs and lows of zoos, those that are both publically accredited and those which are unfortunately private profit establishments. I think it's more than fair to say that without scientific breakthroughs in animal ecology and behavior we wouldn't be seeing so many animals reach less vulnerable conservation statuses. And this is ignoring what your public awareness and funding bring just by having visited those zoos! The best thing you can do to help these positions is to make sure you only give platform to zoos with proper accreditation, to prevent private and for-profit zoos from engaging in animal cruelty, such as unsafe shows, immoral breeding, and unsafe public experiences like cub petting.
@@LaztheLaxyou can’t do the research yourself?
I disagree with the zoo opinion. It didn't turn into entertainment. It became more educational and focused on animal preservation. Zoos have prevented endangererment and extinction countless times. Well, the majority do that anyway.
If you can find a shop in a zoo that contains plushes for entertainment it’s for entertainment.
Agreed, not every zoo is bad. Many actually care about their animals. Not to mention they keep many animals alive and safe from humans.
Bella the wolf 💀💀
😭
Man they suck
Bro the way you edit videos is extremely well thought out and appealing to look at
Thankyou I really appreciate it
we really talking about finn's god's complex when we have princess bubblegum
That’s a different beast
The adventure time episode that asked "maybe shipping is a bad thing"
I'm a D&D DM so yes
I do have a God Complex
LMAO
Im a fanfic writer, did you expect me NOT to have one?
Is it really a god complex if you actually are the god of that universe?
I really like the way you structured this and the way you chose this media to analyze is very interesting and engaging. Im subbed and looking forward to your future stuff. You have massive potential ❤
Thank you I really appreciate it
man i love adventure time sm that i literally click this video even tho i'm not really interested with these hypothesis etceteras
@@samdeguzman360 yeah I’m on my 3 rewatch witch is better because I’m introducing my little brother to the show
Most would hate episodes for Finn but I loved seeing how relatable Finn is like really, and from there I knew his character development was set up for greatness
You also can't forget what people do to their Sims.
7:51 lil-Finn was about to jump or am I overthinking?
For pg ratings maybe just pondering
Honestly a lot of people have felt what Finn felt. He saw them all as magic toys that he could experiment with like most gamers who play through Skyrim or something.
We play god everyday. When man invented the wheel he soon took the horse and domesticated it
Good point
Buble gum had the most god complex
Yes she’s a monster sometimes
Love this vid, I like how you use adventure time to talk about and exemplifie interesting and important topics
@@intellectualmofo8956 appreciate it I have many more videos like this if your interested
ok the song at 1:38 banger Windmill Isle (Day) - Sonic Unleashed [OST]
Good taste knows good taste
Yeah, Terraria kinda made me feel it. Just that feeling you get to taste after defeating the moonlord. The feeling of being an absolute god. It just feel's so unbelievable awesome when you build your first Drill containment unit that destroy's everything you wan't to destroy and the Zenith that kill's everything you wan't to kill.
The feeling that you can do what ever you wan't
What happens to them after this episode? Is it like a horton hears a who situation
Not sure ima research it rq
Chances are they found a little hole to drop them off of and left them there to their own devices, which I am sure lasted abgood amount of time if tiny Finn is as heroic as Normal Finn is
Great video man! Glad the algorithm is starting to recommend smaller creators
Thank you so much I’m glad the algorithm is doing that also
channels like yours are always interesting to watch keep making videos man 🙏🙏
Thank you
This is cool and seeing this episode now that I'm older its weird af, also the stanford prison experiment was originally to test how quickly people could adapt to social roles being placed on them, so much so that most prisoners actually believed they were real criminals and deserved their punishments. You definitely can view it in the way that was interpreted in the video but i thought it'd be cool to share what i learn in my psychology course.
Ngl, this was my favorite adventure time episode
W
Out of the many thing Magic Man did, this is one of the more mild ones
Yea magic man bananas
This reminds me of me and my sims and how I live vicariously through them. I don’t think it’s a god complex but rather a projection of my internal mind and shadows. The part I repress in ‘real life’.
Sounds like a good balance
So I have a disclaimer about the Stanford prisoner experiment, the psychologist was later reported to actually heavily involve himself in the experiment, even going so far as to encourage the guards to use more force.
Ese psicólogo cometió el mayor error en un experimento involucrarse sentimentalmente en el
Magic man says "Do what thoust will be the whole piece of law", which is a reference to aleister crowley
Love ur vids bro ! Here before u blow up 🔥🙏
Appreciate it Boss, you the 🐐
Would honestly control a little version of you to make more Adventure Time videos. Your disection of tbis episode just made this acid trip have much more sense.
Hey I really enjoyed the content of this video, very cool dialogue. HOWEVER, please do something about the sound control. Some clips were so much louder than others and those cut bleeps were way louder and piercing than necessary. Took away from the fun and engagement of a well constructed video!
Keep it up bro
Thankyou
I think this episode is one of my favorite ones cus as a kid I never really knew anything related to this and didn't understand it at all but it explored it nonetheless.
W response
Man, i need to get back into this show.
1:38 🕺
😭
😂
I always kinda loved how Finn echoes something Magic Man says at the beginning: "I'm not coming back" what does that mean to imply for who is magic man?
Good catch
YOUR CONTENT IS GREAT! YOUARE AWESOME AND YOU LOOK DEEP I LIKE THIS SO MUCH THERE SHOULD BE MORE PEOPLE LIKE YOU! keep up the work, apologies for shouting lol
@@AdventureTimeMoments-f5p NO APOLOGIES NEEDED THX I LOVE YOUR PFP BTW!!!
7:44 the number of women who exclude men because of height is a huge amount. Someone I knew getting height increase, got with someone because of their height now not being as short. A psychological bias towards taller people and no short kings are few and far between. I enjoy being short which is why I'm not going to get height increasing surgery.
I never understood this episode as a kid, but now I feel VERY, VERY uncomfortable. The truth really is harsh, eh?
Facts
The funny thing is even the show creator is "controlling" the characters in the narrative. There is always someone or... something who control the fictional world, be it a game or other fiction media.
You overuse the television beep sound effect, and it ruined it for me. Otherwise, pretty good video, I’ll be checking out around 1/2 way through.
I know I know 😭 RUclips melts copy striking the video will figure out another way next time
Adventure time s5 e5 this is it if u wanna watch it
I cannot believe I watch the most surface level analysis. Honestly, I just wanted to watch the whole clip uninterrupted.
Then why didn’t you exit the video 😭
Just discovered yo channel! I fuck with your content and also saw your Benson video. Great takes, you just got a new subscriber fam 👍🏽
Appreciate it sincerely
Dude this edit is really good, you just have to improve on the transitions because sometimes the volume just spikes, I would also recommend good flow of music transitions. So far your music taste is not bad at all, just few of these improved then I think you would make actual quality videos that are highly educative and entertaining.
Thank you for the advice Ive been recording the audio on my phone I finally saved up enough for a mic
NO FINN
DONT PUT THEM ON THE JAR
😦
Great video ❤
Thank you
Favorite episode, it's an odd one to have as a favorite but it just tickles me.
Lmao 😂
Well if I had something like this I too would develop a God complex.
I have a fletching god complex. I believe I will become a god to control all things
😦
this is so real
i feel like you have the progressions of zoos a bit backwards. of course there a zoos that are bad and about making money, but now days a lot of zoos are for protecting animals that can no longer live in the wild and are nonprofit, while the orgins of zoos are from a long time ago when monarchs and business men would aquire wild animals and display them to show power/get money
Good complex
🐐
I recently discovered your channel and love your reviews, One of my favorite pieces of media is the short animated series Over the Garden Wall. Could you check it out and see if it’s worth making a video for it?
Yes I got you. I’ll take a look tonight thx
I just finished the show and I want to say Thankyou this was a masterpiece,a video will be made soon!
yup this god complex is in BLOODBORNE one of the best games ever made
Lol
@MediaMunchies495 No seriously play tye game and tye lore. It's humans trying desperately to ascend into godlike beings that are not meant to be comprehensible. And it's horror
What’s the back ground music in the beginning? It’s so soothing
O59 10pm animal crossing
Someone please tell me the name of the song at the start of the video I've been looking for it for months
059: 10pm animal crossing
@@MediaMunchies495 thank you so much I'm gonna smoke so much weed to this song now bless you
Universes is not a word.
Awesome! :D
Appreciate it thx
Oh god, not the Nicole’s risky job music…
@@Son-Goku1227 lol
It's like people secretly watching others use the bathroom or shower and dress themselves. Also pornography and acts that only God couldn't pervert. God only intervenes when harm is being used like an instrument.....
Yeah
"axe" yea i'm not listening to that
The sims couldve saved him
Or made him worse 🤯
I remember this episode. It was funny and interesting
W
What’s the sample that starts at 0:39?
Donkey Kong country 2 forest interlude
The Prison Experiment is a poor excuse as it has been partially told to having had bad actors.
Yes I am aware now thx
I find this ep funny ash cuz this is something I would deadass do 😂😂😂😂
Lol
Adventure time? More like Freaky Time
LMAO 😭
Ado is best Idol! 🥹🥰💙🫶🏽✨
Also what happened to the tiny people at the end
Whats the music name @ 1:38
Now Ik why girls love Sims so much
lol yeah
I have a God complex 😢
😭
Are the subtitles auto generated down there? There’s spelling errors that keep tripping me up
There will be be no more automated subtitles after this
He's just like me fr
Lol
Aren't most writers playing god. I guess your commentary makes me think that most writers create tragedy and sadness for their characters in story just for entertainment. Kinda making me feel that the writers didn't do the best job on what it means to play god.
I know these stories aren't real, but is there a difference in what Finn was doing compared to any story written to show off a writers fetishis.
Heck, the little people being "alive" makes me wonder how are they any different compared to some Videogame AI.
Good point
i really wanted to watch this video but the pacing and editing is too jarring to involve myself in.
awesome
Thx
I write fanfics, how can I not have one? Jokes aside trying to play god with people's lives is messed up and you should never do that, however fictional characters ( to my knowledge) don't exist so you're free to do whatever you want with em; just be careful not to cross into real life
Yep
I have no desire to control the lives of others but am obsessed with attention and I want to be revered on a scale equivalent to penguinz0, markiplier, or pewdiepie. I know craving attention is unhealthy, but I am unable to supress my inclinations.
😦 every one has the struggles
You need to learn to love yourself unconditionally. Until you can generate self love you will always have a void that can never be sated by external validation.
What's the song at 1:38?
Windmill Isle Day - Sonic Unleashed
@@MediaMunchies495thank you so much ❤. Thought it was from sonic generations at first.
Im the forever dm, of course I have a god complex
😦
I really enjoyed your commentary, but I have some constructive criticism I hope you'll take into consideration.
I legit almost stopped watching after a few minutes because you WAY over did that "technical difficulties" screen with the loud beep. I started dreading it after it came up like 3 times in less than 2 minutes & I realized you were gonna keep doing it for the entire video.
Maybe keep the "rule of 3" in mind. Repeating a gag/joke 3 times is the perfect amount. Any more than that & it just gets annoying.
Also, the loud sound that accompanies that screen is so fucking jarring that I had trouble paying attention for a few seconds after it & I kept missing what you were saying. 😢
PLEASE, for the love of Glob, just let your analysis & commentary shine & leave that kind of gimmick out of the video.
Please also keep in mind that a lot of people put this kind of video on to sleep to & if there's a piercing noise that's significantly louder than the rest of the video, they are gonna instantly back out of your video.
Plus, your video won't get added to "Video essays to fall asleep to" playlists, which would be excellent exposure you'd then miss out on.
I think you have the potential to do really well on RUclips if you just adjust your editing style!
I look forward to seeing your videos get better & better! I'd like to see you do some long-form content in the future.❤
And IDK if it'd help, but Uncivilized Elk has a video on nearly every Adventure Time episode, so you may be able to use his videos as a guide to what clips you can use without getting striked!
Good luck!
Thx for the constructive Criticism I tone it down. But also the video got copyrighted 4 times so I had to get creative in certain parts
@MediaMunchies495 I'm sorry, I know that shit has got to be really frustrating. Especially when you obviously put a lot of work in finding all the right clips & editing them in. I've seen people flip clips horizontally or put a slightly colored filter over clips to appease the copyright gods. Maybe that would save you some time & frustration?
I really hope I didn't come off as a bitch in my comment. People have told me I'm too honest, but I swear my intentions are only good. To be perfectly honest, I thought the chance of you actually seeing my comment was pretty low, let alone that you'd actually respond to it. 😅 I genuinely do really like you & I want to see you succeed! 💗
@@TheApryl no not at all you put me on game I had no idea about sleep and content playlist this was much needed
MAN HONEST CRITIQUE ON THE VIDEO BUT THERE ARE WAY TOO MANY BEEPS IN IT 😭😭😭😭 I LOVE HOW U TACKLED THE TOPIC AND CHATACTER N HONEST 2 GOD U HAVE INTERSTING POVS BUT U JST MADE ME SICK O THE RAINBOW BEEP SCREEN 4 ABT A WEEEEK
Nice analysis brother just rlly recommend cutting down on the beeping and memes bc its rlly offputting.. it do work sometime but it gets a but overwhelming to watch the analysis abt Finn’s God complex when there’s beeping and meme cut-ins every like 30 seconds or so 🙏🙏
Completely understood I only put the memes and beeping so RUclips wouldn’t copyright me for the 5th time in my next video I will have a better way to combat this
Sometimes i see myself as a control freak. A disgusting f)&₱ing control freak.
Anyways i also ship n and v.
Cells* not sales lmfao
Oh and Finn* not film lmaoooo
