![Ben 10’s First Movie: Secret of the Omnitrix BREAKDOWN [Part 1]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/COd20bjRtu4/mqdefault.jpg)
*_[Part 1] Translation of an interview with the person behind this movie_*
Q: What inspired you to make this animated movie and put a national hero against a Hollywood legend?
A: Animation is loved by everyone, young and old, around the world, because it has a strange power in transferring the desired goals. With the help of the tools at its disposal, animation can be a very deep carrier of concepts, as all the things that can't be done in real life can easily fit in animation, and the whole world has realized this significance.
But the reason we went after this story was that we wanted to show the history, culture and civilization of Iran and expose the identity-less character of Ben 10.
Since someone such as Ben 10 is present in every moment of our children, we wanted to show them his true character. He is an American boy who has supernatural powers, turns into 10 creatures with the bracelet that he has with him, and wants to help the earth, but that's not the only goal of Ben 10. He has symbols which are all the symbols of Satan and the creators want to use this to present invasion in a very attractive and effective way to our children.
[The rest is in the replies.]
*_[Part 2] Translation of an interview with the person behind this movie_*
Q: Then why did you use the help of this identity-less character himself to expose him?
A: Because we saw that our children are attracted to these western characters, while we have had heroes here in Iran, which can have more attractiveness for them. We decided to bring our own heroes to the table and, in fact, the idea of making this movie was this same armband that actually belongs to Iranians and children have been seeing it on Ben 10's arm for years.
The point of putting Ben 10 against Siavash was showing the shallowness of this character to children, because this character has been so empowered between children that unless he was put next to Siavash, this movie wouldn't have the effect that it has today.
We wanted to put these two characters aside each other and compare them. Our goal was to slander Ben 10. We put these characters next to each other and allowed children to be the judge, and now when a child leaves the theater, he says that Siavash is stronger.
*_[Part 3] Translation of an interview with the person behind this movie_*
Q: Is your Siavash the same one from Shahnameh?
A: No, we created our own Siavash. Just like how Ben 10 is an American boy and the representative of the people of America, Siavash is an Iranian boy and the representative of the people of Iran, who stands against cruelty and tyranny and brings peace to the world. Although there are references to heroes like Rostam, Esfandiar, Arash, etc., presenting Shahnameh in this movie was never our intention.
*_[Part 4] Translation of an interview with the person behind this movie_*
Q: Why, despite us having legends and heroes such as Siavash and others, are animations like Ben 10 and the others like it more attractive to our children?
A: The problem is that we have never presented our own heroes. If we don't have heroes, Ben 10s and Spider-Men replace the heroes of our children. Why should fictional western heroes replace Iranian heroes and legends and affect the beliefs and thoughts of our children?
This is where "Siavash's Secret" comes along and says that Ben 10 is a lie and has no power, while one such as Siavash gets his power from God. I can confidently say that Siavash's Secret has the same attractiveness of foreign animation for our children.
But perhaps foreign works are noticed by children more because the technical work of foreigners is higher, because perhaps animation is the only industry in which money determines everything.
When they make a Hollywood animation with 150 thousand dollars and we make something with one thousandth of that cost, what expectation is there!? This industry is new in our country and we must spend for this types of work, it's not like our artists lack in ability. Unfortunately we don't spend for our creations and legends.
Aside from the high technical work of western works, perhaps another thing that makes them attractive and memorable is making several series of a hero like Ben 10 and others like him.
In my opinion, if this repetition happens, yes, this task is possible. But the reality is that, on the other side of the world, there is governmental support behind all of these. Now, while there might be private investment as well, it's not without the support of the government and they come and present their thoughts and goals through these characters. We too can do the same if given support.
There we go, I just spent an hour and a half killing my brain cells. This is only one of the several interviews that they have done, and this was actually tamer in comparison. Their audacity is astonishing, and it's even worse in the others. Still, this should you give you a good idea on who's behind this.
P.S. Hope I didn't make too many typos/grammatical mistakes.
This is really cool! I mean, a bit ridiculous, but also a neat perspective on why they made this film. I wish I saw this before I made the video. it now makes me with there was an English Dub because I want to see how they portray Ben as a character.
I have no recollection of this entire viewing experience
Guess we'll have to watch it again!
I'm sorry you had to sit through that, diamond.
Holy cow 😅
Dayum
ong
This movie is like when you're dreaming and the plot of the dream changes for no reason in the middle of it but you don't realize it until you wake up
Holy crap that’s exactly it
You just described like a good 60% of my dreams
the plot was kinda good at the start, Max and Gwen are out and it's upto Ben and Kevin to stop whatever is going on but then all that shit happened and...we all know where that went
Bruh, that’s the most accurate thing I have ever read
Yea
Actually the movie was made because of Ben 10 was so popular in Iran and the government didn't like how kids liked the American hero since they hate America that is why this movie was made to simply show that Iranian culture is just better than American culture in every single way, that is why the Iranian guy was better than Ben 10 in every single thing and in the end he destroyed the omnitrex and gave him the same thing that he use to transform, it was simply a propaganda movie for children
Oh Jesus 😢
It goes to show that if you like something that the government doesn’t like then they will trying there damnest to stomp on the thing they like
imagine getting angry over the popularity of a cartoon series
What else can we expect from Iran?
One word: PUNCTUATION.
How did i get so invested in this that I'm actually annoyed that Ben gave up the Omnitrix
Forget that. Azmuth bout to build a robot to beat Bens ass over that
literally same
Vilgax is gonna lose his s*** when he hears about this.
Who knows maybe Paradox when back in time, and tells Ben to use Alien X to stop the villains, possibly headcannon
Feels like Blasphemy gotta be honest
Fun fact (and I'm writing this based on the title alone as I haven't seen the video or this film): Siavash's secret is a CGI animated film made and promoted by the Iranian government at the peak of the country's anti-western-media propaganda. To give some context, the Iranian government and it's Islamic Republic regime, have a deep resentment for first-world countries, especially the USA. So they released this film as what they thought was a good way of introducing the new generation to the country's mythologies (that we are forced to learn about in school, mind you) by putting one of them up against Ben 10. As an Iranian myself, I can tell you right now, I got quite a lot of ads about this back in the day. And personally I thought based off the promotional material alone, that I wasn't interested. This is my first time seeing anything in relation to it, so here goes. I just hope the dialog isn't that cringy. Keep it fizzy, bud!
What an incredible detail. Thanks for sharing!
@The Ink Tank no problem. I'm watching the video right now and I'm cringing at the CGI so hard😂😂😖😖
iranians unite to cringe together
@@TheInkTank Kuro, My name is raj is very great movie, it is incredibly better than this bootleg, I hope you will love it!
Also I'm not sure if Gwen shows up in this movie at all but if she doesn't it's probably because they couldn't make a new character model for her where she was wearing Hijab (it's part of the law that women should never appear without proper Hijab in public at all, TV and cartoons included)
Y'know what bugs me the most? The fact that they went through the extra effort to study the source material, enough to include characters like Paradox, to recreate the Ben 10 series rather faithfully... and it was all with the upmost ill intent of slandering and demonizing the show.
Keep in mind, if they had just made a Siavash show, even if it was still structured as a Ben 10 rip off, it probably would've been more succesful. What kind of poison in your bones you gotta have to make something like this?
Somehow they managed to refer to Paradox as doctor instead of professor
my thoughts exactly.
@@vraxo2024
I guess he did go at the University of Gallifrey and got a Doctorate in Time Traveling
all you need is to be faithful to the Iranian government.
Man, religion's weird. Like, really fucking weird.
It's all cuz the creator thinks Ben 10 is Satan propaganda.
Ah shit here we go again
As an Iranian, I say that this movie destroyed Iran's mythology more than it destroyed Ben 10.
So the propaganda failed harder than it already did
@@iluvyurbles Exactly.
damn
Can you just, summarise which myth this had? Because I am having an aneurism
Now I'm actually interested in Iranian mythology. Can you explain how they butchered it?
If I know one thing is that, Azmuth is going to be very *VERY* pissed when he finds out that Ben destroyed the Omnitrix…..again.
What's he gonna do tho?? Ben has the power of God AND Persian mythology on his side. AAAAAAAAAA
@@LIGHTNING1381 azmuth uses the power of Buddha which leads to a fight between God and Buddha, and then he shoots Ben and Siavash with a galvanic gun
Him, Albedo, and vilgax are going to have a seizure when ben tells them how he lost the omnitrix
@America Chavez And then Gwen will have to wear a Burkha 💀

@@axelnilsson5124 Entertainment should get a negative 5 because they were actively wishing for death.
@@romanfischer7307 it was still hilarious though
I choose to believe that this whole movie was actually orchestrated by Professor Paradox. We know he interacts with Bens other than just Ben Prime, so *clearly* what happened is Paradox discovered a bootleg universe with its own Ben and engineered a situation where Ben abandons the Omnitrix so that Cartoon Networks' agents couldn't track him down through its iconic branding & destroy this Ben's bootleg universe.
Paradox is the unsung hero of this movie.
makes perfect sense.
The craziest part is that this isn't even technically impossible within the canon.
Maybe this is the universe with the terrible physics.
Is this the universe paradox dosent like
Yea
I am Iranian, and I remember the first time I saw this commercial, I was very surprised. It was actually released in cinemas, and its sales and reviews were so bad that its digital version was never released. I never went to the cinema to see it, because from the bits I saw of it, I knew how painful it was to watch. In Iran, like many other places, Ben 10 is very popular among children, and that's why they made this to say that Iranian characters are better than Ben 10, and that's why Ben 10 is failing as a whole movie. The history of Iran is full of stories with characters that are really beautiful, but now instead of dealing with these characters, such works like this are produced.
(and of course #mahsa_amini #women_life_freedom
for the revolution that is happening in Iran.)
I didn't know this was released in theaters - thanks for letting me know!
@@TheInkTank thanks for your great videos man🙌🏻
While it makes sense that there are people that take what people like, and attempt to use it against them, but to have some confirmation of that, makes me a bit more sad. Thank You for the insight into this.
@@airlemental 👌🏻🙏🏻
It really could have been something interesting if Ben legitimately teamed up with a historical figure like he did in Omniverse and gained respect for someone and their culture that was different from his own, but of course that's not what the creators were going for. A sad, missed opportunity, but like with Kuro and Diamondbolt I'm legitimately interested in Siavash now and hope this video inspires similar interest with all its viewers.
My headcanon is that all these bootleg shows where made by Albedo while he was stranded on earth and needed money.
Mine is that it was Harangue. Maybe it was both of them?
@@vraxo2024 an episode about Albedo and Harangue working together would have been so sick
Speaking of Iran Albedo how is gonna change back into a Galvan. Ben’s Omnitrix is destroyed in this universe.
@@bearerofbadnews1375 most likely he was a Demon and his turning into Ben was a curse of God
So when he converted to Islam he became an Angel (a Galvanian but Good) thus returning to his original form but as a Good Person
😂
Mine is that they were made and directed by Harangue, Albedo worked as bootleg Ben's model and Captain Nemesis payed the bills for production of the bootlegs
This would literally be like if some modern Iranian action cartoon protagonist did an adventure, and then halfway through he went back in time and got his ass kicked by George Washington.
Fun fact: the reason why Gwen isn't in this movie is because she dresses "immodestly" by the Iranian moral police's standards.
Also in movie she die in one of DNALIEN fights
@@fatherpucci8170 Remember kids: if you don't wear your hijab, the morality police will send DNAliens to kill you!

Man I hope the next Ben 10 show has an episode where they just absolutely demolish this entire thing, like that one episode of TAWOG
I feel like this would only cause more backlash from Iran against America if that was the case.
I feel like 'Ben meeting a hero from Iran' episode, where the Iranian hero is more developed in the episode than in the Iranian film would be a better idea.
@@k-techpl7222Oh no, we wouldn’t want to ruin those rocksteady American and Iranian relations.

Glad to have been part of this project! Really was fun trying something new.
When you said Ahriman everything came into place for me. Basically Ahriman IS Satan, they are part of Zoroastrianism, the Iranian religion. And when you mentioned him, I remembered a Russian cartoon based on a book series "Kids vs Wizards" which is a religious takedown on Harry Potter (google Дети против волшебников). The animation is extremely similar in fact. And the approach is super similar as well, except I guess they didn't make Ben the villain and also all the conservative fearmongering things.
same lmao, it is however weird that a movie made under theocracy and pushed for propaganda reasons goes back to the roots of persian civilization; previously I wouldn't have been surprised if everything before the 7th century was dismissed as "fire-worshipping" in Iran, but tbh that's actually way more interesting.
I thought Ahriman from the SMT games.
@@bearerofbadnews1375 I learned of Ahriman from Prince of Persia 2008
@@bearerofbadnews1375 Fellow Megaten fan. Hikawa's Ahriman has a badass design. Also, if you really think about it, the Omnitrix is like a COMP for aliens instead of demons. Not exactly the same, but similar. Ben also sorta resembles the pre-apocalypse SMT1 protagonist a bit. Probably just a coincidence, but cool nonetheless.
Oh my god there's a Harry Potter takedown too?!
Now don't tell me there's a Spider-Man takedown ffs
I think Ben is nerfed harder here than when he met Rex
Fr
Which one the original timeline or the reboot.
was he even really nerfed against Rex? he kinda had the upper hand during most of his fight with ben in the beginning of the crossover
@@StardustLegend most of the fight is Ben getting tossed around by Rex and it basically ends with Rex as the victor.

You should give Siavash a cameo in 5YL now.
The thought just occurred to me that if this a version of Ben that knows all the aliens he has during this era, couldn’t he just transform into Alien X and beg Bellicus and Serena to go back home?
Or turn into Jetray? The alien that brought him there?!
I’m starting to think this is the alternate universe Paradox was referring to in the forge of creation
"I dont like it at all, the physics are terribly counter-intuitive"
This story could definitely be fixed up into something legitimate, maybe turn it into a comic series.
An antagonist alien empire wages war against demons and the hero caught in the middle aims to wipe both of them out? That does sound like a comic book premise.
Probably add have Gwen,Paradox and Kevin having some importance. More aliens and the change the writing
Funnily enough, it was a comic at first.
There's is a Manga where Yokais (Japan's Demons/Spirits) fights against Aliens
It's called Dandandan
I mean, this movie showed more aliens than in the Alien Swarm.
It is CG after all
*CAR SHOT*
I think I read the producers saying something along the lines of "Ben 10 is animated in 3D, while we animated this movie in 2D, which is of course harder"... Yeah, you can't except much from someone who unironically says that.
This movie is Litteraly 3D💀
@@Nobody_247 The dude is delusional, as any religious fanatic is, but I'm not sure if calling his own work 2D is part of his delusion, or him thinking people are stupid enough to believe it's 2D just because it had a toon shader (though that could also be considered a delusion). But I just can't explain calling Ben 10 3D in any way lmao
In this movie Ben was just useless most of the time, Kevin wasn’t there and the new guy did everything. This is definitely a fanfic with a big budget
The Bird destroyed Ben's Omnitrix. But I just realized, isn't the AF Omnitrix acts as a wireless receiver to access the Codon Stream in Primus.
But then again... it is funny that this is multiversal canon.
this is like a bad dream when you know you can fly because you just had a sequence when you did.
But then when other people enter the sequence, you suddenly cannot.
It is so frustrating to see happen
I demand that the kid who transformed into those weird ditties be part of 5yl maybe as a herovillian like captain nemisis
I love how Ben just has his sleeve underneath the Omnitrix for the entire thing.
What you didn't realize because of the language of the movie is that Gwen and Max are dead in this movie. The main reason was to show Ben defeated and humiliated. And the next reason is that in Iran there is a problem called the mandatory hijab, which does not allow the female character to be portrayed without a scarf and some kind of special clothing, and in the meantime, they said to kill Max so that Gwen would not be alone.
I find it interesting, especially after what Lightning 1381 said, on how this was more or less propaganda for the Iranian government. Like Ben is made completely useless as copy of him based on mythology does everything he can but "better". Just an interesting view of it. Also can we talk about how this is literal a fanfic from the real writers, that is also a fanfic in the context of the movie.
(Edit: I can believe they literally had Ben destroy the Omnitrix... Like i'm legit speechless 😂)
Like fuck azmuth and the fail safes am I right?
I consider myself having "high standards" for what I usually consider "bad", as in "It's VERY HARD for me to actively dislike a piece of media, not even shit like Rise of Skywalker or certain reboots of certain franchises that people hate" and so this bootleg film finally have that honour of making on to the tier of things I actually hate to watch which is certainly impressive. Not you guys reacting but the very thing you guys are watching.
Rise of Skywalker was better than either A New Hope and Empire Strikes Back. It has problems, but nothing like Han and Leia's "romance" or Luke having ABSOLUTELY no agency in the first movie.
@@genyakozlov1316 I won't say much because my tastes are on a different level. Was using Rise of Skywalker as an example of me not hating a thing the majority hates
I’m the same when it comes to movies, if I don’t actively think it’s a stupid movie, then it’s fine to me.
@@genyakozlov1316no agency? What about him wanting to be a Jedi like his father and avenge his “death”
This is what disrupted Malware’s life code.
This is now my headcannon.
I love the idea that Ben and Kevin just go grave robbing in between episode of Alien Force.
It's a great day when Kuro & DiamondBolt does a collab together!
this is the reason why jetray wasn't in omniverse, because he was used in this one too much
I laughed throughout this video so much I got an asthma attack
The burning aliens got me off my chair
Are you alright?
I do not remember Siavash from the Persian myths being capable of Transforming into anything or anyone but they got the Ahriman story pretty right.
Ahriman in the myths was practically Satan( he is all evil in the world ) who at one point Possesses and turns a young Prince into a Demon King by giving the Prince two Snakes on his Shoulders after the Prince killed his Dad
I guess that's like if someone made a story about King Arthur meeting Ben 10 and buffed the Excalibur to shoot lightning and open space-time continuums.

Even I can feel it 😅

@@Eric6761ok
Seeing the parts with Paradox makes me want you and Diamondbolt to dub this entire movie
I have watched watch 'My name is Raj' when it aired on the tv. It was weird. But the story is sort of interesting i guess... Only thing I remember from it is kind of a fun fact, that the transformations have the personality of famous actors/characters in Bollywood cinema.
I've watched Raj and I never noticed that, but that sounds like an actually interesting concept.
I'm an Indian & I actually remember liking "My Name is Raj" , can't wait to see ur reaction to it.
Yeah seriously, he should review it
I can't seem to find the reaction
Glad to see Diamondbolt back in the channel. This movie just confused the heck out of me I don’t even know if I hate it I’m just so perplexed. Also Kuro is your shirt available in the InkTank Merch store
Ok, OC guy’s transformation sequence is actually kinda cool
The world of bootleg content is always a fascinating one.
This review isn't even a day old and it already has more views than the movie itself on youtube.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 LMAOOOOOO
The most important (and scary) thing about all of this is that, according to how the Ben 10 Universe works and how there are multiple different versions of Ben across time and space, this movie could very well be canon in some universe. Siavash could technically be canon.
And then get HIS ass kicked by Ben. That would be hilarious.
You really should make a nod to that Ben in 5YL lmao
The power hungry Ben that have forsaken the omnitrix to have the persian God bracelet. The more I talk about it, the more it seems like a great concept as this Ben would probably try to convert other Bens XD
Kuro:My OC can do anything...BUT he can't destroy the omnitrix?!?!
When I saw that scene of him destroying it I was like Hell nah he can't do that and he for sure can't beat Goku
Okay, I am Iranian and the only memory I have of this thing is seeing books of "Ben 10 vs Siavash" everywhere when I was younger. I don't know if it was a picture book or a comic book or what, heck my memory could possibly just be fucking with me by misremembering the DVD cases as book covers. Regardless, I do remember avoiding it like the plague since even in my early teen years I could take a look at that title and know that it's gonna devolve into "look guys, the mythological hero of our great, pure and traditional country could beat up the famous character made by those American heretics" and I'm not even remotely surprised to find out I was right all along.
as the pinned comment said, Iran was and still is on a real anti-west propaganda craze but something that I feel like needed mentioning is the Ben 10 craze in Iran. There aren't many big media crazes here in Iran and even stuff like Pokemon or Street Fighter are relatively unknown here. we have had some stuff like a smaller version of Turtle Mania (but over the 2003 series instead of the 1987 series) and a Clash of Clans and Angry Birds sweep. But the Ben 10 craze... the Ben 10 craze was on a whole different level. Ben 10 was the only thing kids in school were talking about and you couldn't take a step outside without seeing bootleg Ben 10 shirts, backpacks, coloring books, toys, lunch boxes, pencil cases and whatnot, and I guess the idea that all of Iran was obsessed with a piece of media made by the west got under the Islamic Republic's skin.
One thing worth noting is that from what little voice clips I heard in your video, none of the Ben 10 characters and aliens were voiced by the people that were known for voicing them so I guess it was either made by a company that had to use in-house VAs or the VAs actually had enough dignity to avoid the project. and even this whole "people that were known for voicing them" thing is pretty unique in Iran since there are several dubbing companies in Iran (and a few Persian dubbing companies outside of Iran) that each do their own dubs of foreign movies and TV shows with entirely different casts from each company, but Ben 10 only had one dub (even though some of the characters and aliens had their voice actors replaced during the dub) and that was the only dub that people used to watch the show.
I imagine Azmuth swearing Ben because he destroys the omnitrix
Isn’t the omnitrix here a prototype (recalibrated) and Azmuth was working on a new omnitrix
Always wondered about this ever since the Ben 10 Iceberg
21:50
That explanation gave me flashbacks to that one Sonic picture on Deviantart.
You know the one.
I don’t know
Please tell me
As an Iranian, I am really saddened that some unworthy people are ruining a famous series and our beautiful legends like this. Believe me, even in Iran, no one enjoyed this scandal.
Seeing stuff like this makes me really appreciate the animation of Ben 10, DC cartoon, , anime etc
Woah You watched My name is Raj ??? As an Indian fan, I'm pretty hyped.
Same dude, it was such a great movie!
As insulting as this movie was, it's kinda interesting seeing Ben 10 used for propaganda, but this movie is pretty much a fever dream imo, but interesting media tbh. Also great seeing you guys collab again
The part where they destroyed the omnitrix just killed me🤣🤣🤣
The fact that this can actually be canon despite not clearly being canon (as in this story made this person but somewhere in the omniverse there is a ben where that happened)
Legend says kevin is still stuck in traffic.
“I can’t believe it’s not Ben 10”
Kuro.. AND Diamond Bolt? Extra win!
I like to think that when the annilargh got activated and ben went as alien x, he forgot to revive this universe, thus being non canon.
Unfortunately the Annihilarg didn't destroy the multiverse, just the Prime Universe.
Then the Annihilarg was activated in this Universe too but Ben didn't have Alien-X and so didn't recreate this Universe
Petition to make Siavash canon in the 5YL somewhere in the Multiverse.
"I don't wanna see them rob a grave"
No-one tell him about "Revenge of the Swarm" XD
Another collab with diamondbolt equals another massive W
as a fan of ben 10 from childhood till adulthood i wont stand for this
Plot twist the whole movie is just Ben hallucinating after passing out from the radioactive eggs.
I will be expecting Siavash as a recurring character in the next 5YL chapter. You added Saiyans so why not Siavash?
Mimicry is the highest form of flattery.
Except with Iran, where apparently this was made purely to spite Ben 10
Child: "Mom, I want to look the Ben 10 Movie!"
Mother: "We have the Ben 10 Movie at home!"
Ben 10 Movie hat home:
So, is there any explanation for why the Omnitrix didn’t activate the failsafe feature and turn Ben into NRG or someone else who could easily deal with the radioactive eggs?
Not that the movie has any logic, I'm pretty sure they didn't even know about this, but this is AF Ben, so he neither has the failsafe nor NRG.
plus why wasn't Kevin affected lol
@@theamazingspooderman2697 Kevin's just built different
Well. If we count a canon reason, Ben doesn't have NRG in AF.
Because apparently the omnitrix doesn't have any fail safes in this universe. They're just thrown straight out of the window here. Seriously, you think Siavash would be able to destroy the omnitrix/ take it off of Ben's wrist so easily if it had it's fail safes??
Had no idea this movie existed until now
If memory serves me correct I discovered Kuro through Diamondbolt’s Ben 10 movie reviews with you so this was pretty nostalgic
The 2nd movie cross over, Siavash's secret vs Victoria's secret
So is ben not afraid of what Azmuth will do to him when he finds out that ben destroyed one of his greatest creations to ride a bird? Also are you telling me that ben never once thought about the fact that Alien X would destroy all this guys transformations if/when he gained full control?
The omnitrix was a prototype anyway, Azmuth can make a new official complete one
My day brightens so much when I see these two collab.
I suddenly have a newfound appreciation for Ben Gen 10. Ben and Rex fighting over a s’more is more exciting than this movie and that’s just the first act.
Ah yes my favorite aliens Poseidon, Lion-O, and Odin
"Are they praying?"
They better be, I want this movie to end.
I didn’t know Sailor Moon and Ben 10 existed in the same universe.
5:53 I think it was supposed to be based on when he was captured by Helen and Manny and used up pocket change to create a mishmash arm
I never though he would watch my name is Raj I hope he soon makes a video about it.
Psychologists: every dream has a purpose
My dreams:
9:01 Were making the mother of all omelettes Ben can’t fret over every egg.
Imagine if Ben prime met this Ben and found out he destroyed the omnitrix to get on a bird
Ok the actual reason is bad for other reasons but like my point stands, he destroyed the omnitrix because he was shown that this other artifact was better like, Ben the omnitrix is the most powerful weapon in the universe and you destroyed it because you believed it wasn’t as powerful as something else. I mean on one hand it’s not entirely a bad thing to get rid of a super weapon, and sure Ben can still save people, but it was Ben’s responsibility to guard the omnitrix and he threw it away for a new toy? I’m imagining a fight between Ben prime and this Ben, where Prime kicks his ass, cause let’s be real I don’t think the omnitrix was inferior I just think this Ben clearly couldn’t use it very well. Ben prime could absolutely curb-stomp this man into another universe.
I imagine azmuth being mad because the omnitrix was his life work and if it was in the highbreed arc everything went chaos
Thanks i hate it
