I decided to make a fan film, or fan cut rather, using footage of Oddworld that I've tried to make as high quality as I can, to see if I could put together a film that stands on it's own in terms of telling the story for Oddworld. I go into more detail in the description, but a couple of things to note: 1. The opening shot looks terrible because that was my attempt at CGI lol. 2. I've tried to use as much of the footage from the original games as I could (without it not making sense in context). Any scenes that are missing (like a lot of Exoddus) or where I've used the New N' Tasty versions instead are where I didn't have the original footage in high quality. 3. Stranger isn't in it because, whereas Abe and Munch's stories meet at some point, Stranger's is completely separate and so it would be like an unrelated story told alongside it. I was thinking of putting him in as a cameo reacting to one of Lulu's 'NOOO's but I didn't find a shot of Stranger that felt right for that. 4. It's not remotely perfect and there's tons I'd have liked to do to improve it. But I'm quite pleased with it in it's current state and am quite 'burnt out' from spending so long on this project. I know a lot of it doesn't add up or feels sudden (tbf some of that is how it is in the games, like the Almighty Raisin's introduction) and there's tons of continuity mistakes, but it is what it is. I've done the best I feel I could with what I had to make a standalone film that hopefully somewhat makes sense on it's own. Hopefully someone may gain some enjoyment out of it. :) Thanks! :)
I ran out of room in the description and had to cut it off abruptly so I'll probably just casually write more of what I wanted to say about it in the comments here, whenever I can be bothered to.
I had originally intended to upload this on the 31st of December as I thought it'd be a nice video to end 2021 off. Unfortunately, I just didn't finish it in time. But, ultimately, I think that's a good thing because, in the time between then and when I uploaded this final version, I thought of and added so much stuff to it and made some of my favourite changes to it. I uploaded my first cut of the film as an Unlisted video for anyone that's curious: ruclips.net/video/Jv6mEFxY6Y4/видео.html Was originally intended to be the final version, but luckily the Scrabania temple scene (which ironically is now my favourite scene in the final version) was out of sync, which prevented me from uploaded this original version. I made multiple improvements with the additional time that I had.
Do you remember that Lorne said: Abe basically kidnaps Munch in the beginning so Munch hates Abe in the early experience. And of course, Vykkers Labs: "If we didn't test it on Fuzzles, we'll test it on you!" *laughs*
I always feel bad for Lulu. The dude basically got pulled into something he wanted no part in and was never involved in to begin with, and had his life destroyed in the process.
9:42 For Paramites and Scrabs had been sacred once, That was before RuptureFarms turned them into lunch. And they live in temples, and that's where they still nest. And facing these creatures, that was my test.
Same. I always feel bad for Abe and all of the mudokons I wish we could save all the mudokons on the planet and end the trearany of the glukons once and for all and save queen Sam mother of the mudokons.
Yeah it absolutely is! I was comparing the New N Tasty versions with the original a couple of days ago and am just amazed at how the original still somehow, in my opinion, looks so much better. I'm not even sure why exactly, it just somehow looks way more realistic even though it was done with technology that was over a decade older.
@@pupbenny I think due to the fact that the old oddworld games were gritty and a lot darker, portrayed a different feeling then new n tasty. It's way too lit up, the thing that separates the two games is the original portrayed how dark the story was by having dark graphics so you genuinely felt Abe's situation. In new n tasty it's just not the same.
I kinda like how it cuts back and forth from the slightly more serious tone of the AO/AE cutscenes to that of the comparably more humorous cut scenes of Munch’s Oddysee, as if the scenes with Munch are the comedic B-plot of the movie.
That's a really good point, it's interesting how Munch's Oddysee does seem to be a lot more lighthearted than the first two games. The tone of it definitely feels a lot different in many ways. I suppose it makes a hopefully good balance haha.
The funniest thing to me is that that scene played at the literal exact second I read this comment, and let me assure you it jumpscared me more than any horror game ever could
This is so good! And man. I always get chills at when Munch is being captured. Then the Glukkons forces come to get him. That tense music rising up, all the odd world life running and fleeing as lights approach. Than that beep just getting higher and HIGHER. The tension! The suspense is terrible! I hope it lasts
Is it me or is Munch the most sympathetic Oddworld protagonist, he is literally all alone and his kidnapped upon thinking he finally discovered somebody else, and literally had to go on this whole dangerous quest which is mostly out of the water or else be experimented on or be used for surgery!
Yea but we don't know how fast they mature and on top of that he wasn't completely alone. Those vicious little furry nuggets kept him company and protected him, then he met abe
What's awesome is how the fans are following exactly how Lorne Lanning wants this game to go. He wants to make a movie like game and this just draws more attention to that which is awesome
I think I know why The Raisin chose Lulu to be Abe and Munich’s key to Vyker’s labs. Or at least I got a plausible theory. Any other wealthy Glukkon is a gamble whether or not they would be invited to Vyker’s lab for the auction, and it would take way too long to look through any sort of guest list to find a wealthy Glukkon to use. But by using a poor Glukkon like Lulu, he’d get so much fame, popularity and recognition going from a poor schmuck to a big time Glockstar that the Vyker’s would have to invite him. Does that make sense pupbenny?
The way you chose to cluster and put scenes near each other so that they'd be relevant/continue a theme of what impact the Glukkons/Vykkers have on the other races of Oddworld is brilliant, like the segue from the Soulstorm depiction of a Mudoken being tortured by Vykers, and then shifting to Munch whose in the Glukkons lab. Brilliant, smart, well-done. And I love your use of the scenes where Abe narrates while using poetry.
Thank you so much, it's really nice to see that you picked up on that! :) Wasn't sure if people would notice, but I tried to do some deliberate paralleling. Like how Abe gets unlocks his Shrykull power, then in the next scene Munch realises his Sonar power. Even their poses were the same haha! That was just a nice coincidence though.
I rly enjoyed this movie, sumarizing most of the story and even changing some plot points and going back and forth between abe and munch, absolutely phenomenal, but i wounder if strangers wrath could be put into movie, and this one could have used more clips from soulstorm, but otherway, absolutely amazing
This is more precious to me than gems, diamonds and gold. Thinking about it, I really lived a magical life. How being a kid and playing Abe's oddyssee has surely stuck with me for all those years.
So... Me and a couple of my mates decided to watch this for New Year as a Nostalgic Trip and oh my god I'm so glad we did 😭 I remember getting catapulted into an obsession for these 'Odd' games, and instantly loving them. Believe it or not, I started playing them when I was like 8 💀 i was a pretty hard kid so i didn't really get any nightmare or pick up any of the cuss words lmao. I also remember watching my Grandad play Abe's Oddysee + Exodus, Munch's Oddysee, New 'n Tasty and watching a trailer for Soulstorm before the full game publicly released. Now looking back, I literally can't see how my innocent ass didn't think any of the 'beheading', 'experimental surgery', 'guts' or 'slavery'! Thank you so much for making this Benny, it really took me back :) Seeing Munch gave me so much nostalgia personally I can't- I hope he gets bought back into the games at somepoint, he was my favourite when I was a kid :'D
I always loved how humorous Oddworld is while also addressing the great issues of our time: Slavery Ecology collapse Kleptocracy Capitalism Propaganda and state control Police brutality Hierarchical systems of oppression Community & tradition Spirituality Species extinction Indigenous rights Solidarity Animal cruelty Workers’ rights
Absolutely astounding Pupbenny 👏👏👏. Superb film, all the editing puts it all together brilliantly. Bringing it full circle. And did I see upgrades to some visuals, it looks awesome!😄👍
Thank you for putting in the effort to make something Truly awesome!! Hopefully we all get to see the end of this story. I’m looking forward to the next chapter of Abe’s journey.
It would be amazing if they released 3 films. 1. prelogue - how the glukks took over, 2. the downfall of the farm, 3. after they escaped. Great fan film pup love your channel!
👏😍👽 Marvelous work!!! Omg oddworld deserves a movie or a series! But damn you get in to new level!! I love it!! Nice combination of narrative between such duo (Abe and Munch)!! Bravo!!👏❤
Pupbenny, I congratulate you, because I have been looking for a proper ODDWORLD "fan film" for years and now I have found it! I also loved the fact that you invented YOUR version of events: you know Abe who first escapes from the Rupture farms, then he gets the vision of the weirdos, then he goes to the SoulStorm Brewery and THEN goes back to the Rupturefarms to stop them, as if you invented another quintology lol! Editing was great! It was like seeing a real movie, I always wanted to do something like you did, but I never found the ways and the time, I guess you did it for me lmao jk, You surpassed yourself, Uncle Lorne would be proud of you! Congratulations, because I've never seen such a thing! oh and ... in the end it would have been even more damn cool if you had also put in that unused scene where Munch is being cheered by all the Muds and Abe behind him farting! ( I don't know if you understand what scene I'm talking about :P )
Thank you very much, David, I appreciate that! :) And YES, that's a good idea! I think I know exactly what scene you're talking about! :) Wasn't it from an advertisement for Munch, I think? If I recall correctly, watching that advert was the first ever time I heard Munch's voice haha. For some reason my first reaction was 'he sounds like a cowboy'. I'm not entirely sure why I thought that though. There's so many good suggestions I'm hearing, someone said I should've put Stranger in a post-credits scene, that would've been epic too. xD Anyway, thank you again! :) Indeed, it was quite tricky trying to put it altogether in a way that flowed well and made (relatively) cohesive sense so I had to change a few things around. Like how in New N' Tasty I think it shows the 'I witnessed Paramonia' etc type scenes and THEN later shows the cutscene of him entering the respective temple (I think anyway, I could be mistaken) but I flipped it and instead made him enter the temple and then the witnessing of each place being representative of him doing the trials, which I didn't know how else to represent considering that's all normally gameplay haha.
Wow. This isn’t actually half bad, I can totally see if the games were adapted for film, this cobbled together version of all three games could work. An extra hour being used to flesh out everything.
I absolutely love this film you did here, editing was great! Thanks to you, I'm slowly becoming a fan of Oddworld! The lore is so interesting and I love the alien designs, you are one of my fav youtubers out there, keep up the good work 👍
Nice work man. I give it two thumbs up. 👍 👍 A minor edit I’d make is at 24:57 - 26:42 is have it go from the the group leaving the raisin’s temple to the following scene w/ them all at the well, then right after the others bail on Abe once he jumps, THEN cut to Munch in the trash chute and dropping down, then cut back to Abe soaring up into the air and the scene follows how you edited it. It makes it clean and Munch’s fall matches up more cleanly w/ his collision w/ Abe in terms of timing. Y’know what else? I think the inclusion of the cut Guardian Angel teaser right after Abe’s capture at Rupture Farms would’ve definitely worked. Like, right after that scene, over a black screen some text says “hours later”. Or imposed on the screen as the scene plays out.
I really like it, great job Only issue that I have with it is that it feels a bit odd to me personally, because the scenes aren't in the same order as they appeared chronologically in games - it just feels odd to see Abe go to the Soulstorm Brewery before coming back to Rapture Farms, seeing Munch appear so early and etc. But except for that it's amazing
this was amazing to watch im surprised that you didnt use soulstorm but this was well done especially with Much involved too! love your content on Oddworld!
This was an incredible project and you clearly have a talent for film making, so well done dude youre a superstar! Now i feel like im caught up to watch a playthrough of soulstorm thanks to you man, good job! Also the beginning cgi was so nice i thought it was part of the initial intro cutscene lol. You rock dude.
Great video Benny.. Loved it.. The bit on the Munch clip made me laugh 😂. "You must save Munch from Vykers Labs.. Find the big well, and then..... An then..... Zzzzzzzzzz 😴"
what a nice act of you, putting all this together! thank you, this made my day. amazing what you did f.e at 9:09. ps: how did you enhance the graphics? and is the munch footage from the new series x b.c. edition or from the original? it looks so amazing, you really did a good job. thanks again! be blessed
Thank you very much Mr. G-sez! The munch footage is from the PC version, I just used some AI technology to upscale the footage and did some editing techniques to make it look (imo) better and also made the framerate higher to make it look way smoother hopefully! Thank you and be blessed as well. :)
@@pupbenny i thought all of the Odysee footage was from New n Tasty at first and then realized it somehow was the original cutscenes upscaled. Well done
I really hope an animated series or movie comes out from odd world inhabitants. I know Lorne is focused on games but man a movie of this would be great.
30:20 I was always bummed that when Lulu said, "I'm king of the world Ma!" That another newspaper would have Lady Margret saying something snarky about him
I used to be terrified of this game as a kid. I honestly thought I had imagined it in a fever dream or something. It feels surreal to of found this after so many years
Benny, I'm dying to know where you got the score of the cutscenes from in their original form (For example, the sombre music from the ending of Abe's Exoddus that doesn't get interrupted by the record scratch cutting to the M.O.M. news bulletin)
Haha, yes, I was very fortunate to find that! I knew I wanted to use a full version, assuming one existed. So, I checked Oddworld Inhabitants own Abe's Exoddus The Movie (it's on RUclips), that inspired me to make this film, to see if there was anything from that I could use, and that music was in the credits luckily! It's a bit poor quality though, (couldn't find a high quality version) so I kept the original from Exoddus but faded that out before the record scratch in an attempt to hide the poor quality. I didn't explain that very well. I just put it together basically, hopefully hiding some of the bad quality of the full version. Oh yeah and I added somewhat of an echo effect to it to try to hide the poor quality.
I noticed one of the Vykers surgical machines over munch looks awfully like the head of a slig like it’s a machine made too look like one. I wonder why that is or if it’s just a coincidence?
Y’know, to be honest, this all actually makes sense and actually really fits in a chronicle order. Plus it makes a lot of sense. To bad there won’t be a second one relating to Soulstorm and strangers wrath
So it was true that the original version had a Mudokor head on a stick for a product. Honestly, I feel the popsicle fits better for the snack aesthetic the other products have, even though it is darker just to show the head on a stick, plus, it makes sense on an advertisement level
I honestly wish New and Tasty kept the darker cloudy lighting for RuptureFarms since it looks better to me along with the interior of the plant itself.
Yeah I agree, it seemed way too bright and colourful to me. I tried to edit the footage of NNT to try to give a darker tone and reduce the bloom and that kind of thing to match somewhat better with the original footage.
You did a good job, though the start is a bit confusing. It shows us Abe escaping and then escapes to Munch. To someone like me who knows nothing about Oddworld, it's a bit confusing, at first. Eventually, it does make sense.
you know whats funny and also kinda crazy? yesterday i searched for infos about oddworld movie on yt and today you upload a video with the same title! really weird. i was looking for something that lorne lanning mentioned, about a oddworld series or movie. he did not confirm anything, i think he didn't want to mention it. it was an interview on their channel, where this girl plays soulstorm.
Another funny coincidence happened to me while I was uploading this. Someone sent me a tweet saying that, due to hollywood usually screwing up film adaptions of games, it's a good thing they never made an oddworld movie. xD I found it funny reading that while I was uploading a video literally called 'Oddworld The Movie' haha. Hopefully if they did do an actual oddworld movie which, as you said is something lorne has kind of mentioned before, I think it would be okay as it's always sort of been a plan to eventually do a film of the story. It sort of feels like as opposed to most video game adaptions where it's a film of a game, an oddworld movie would be more like a film of a story.
xD Yeah and plus in the cutscenes you never actually see him rescue any so I find it kind of funny in this film when he says 'I rescued Mudokons but who's gonna rescue me.' It makes it look like he's lying lmao, a part of me says 'You rescued Mudokons!? When!?'
So, I never heard of this until yesterday. The Almighty Algorithm has made sure that I am seeing titles of a ton of videos since then. This is the only one I've watched so far though. Finishing it up right now. I'm still confused AF... But enjoying it 😜😂
I decided to make a fan film, or fan cut rather, using footage of Oddworld that I've tried to make as high quality as I can, to see if I could put together a film that stands on it's own in terms of telling the story for Oddworld.

If I recall correctly, watching that advert was the first ever time I heard Munch's voice haha. For some reason my first reaction was 'he sounds like a cowboy'. I'm not entirely sure why I thought that though. There's so many good suggestions I'm hearing, someone said I should've put Stranger in a post-credits scene, that would've been epic too. xD
Anyway, thank you again! :) Indeed, it was quite tricky trying to put it altogether in a way that flowed well and made (relatively) cohesive sense so I had to change a few things around. Like how in New N' Tasty I think it shows the 'I witnessed Paramonia' etc type scenes and THEN later shows the cutscene of him entering the respective temple (I think anyway, I could be mistaken) but I flipped it and instead made him enter the temple and then the witnessing of each place being representative of him doing the trials, which I didn't know how else to represent considering that's all normally gameplay haha.
Just finished it I wish I could of watched more of this love the lore of odd world wish more to come in the future
Wow. This isn’t actually half bad, I can totally see if the games were adapted for film, this cobbled together version of all three games could work. An extra hour being used to flesh out everything.
Wow you did a good job getting the quality up.
I absolutely love this film you did here, editing was great! Thanks to you, I'm slowly becoming a fan of Oddworld! The lore is so interesting and I love the alien designs, you are one of my fav youtubers out there, keep up the good work 👍
Thank you very much, Ottendo, that's really kind of you to say! It's really nice to see people learning about and getting into Oddworld. :)
Seriously dude, love what have done here. Brilliant, thank you
I'm very glad to hear you like it, thank you a lot! :)
Nice work man. I give it two thumbs up. 👍 👍
A minor edit I’d make is at 24:57 - 26:42 is have it go from the the group leaving the raisin’s temple to the following scene w/ them all at the well, then right after the others bail on Abe once he jumps, THEN cut to Munch in the trash chute and dropping down, then cut back to Abe soaring up into the air and the scene follows how you edited it. It makes it clean and Munch’s fall matches up more cleanly w/ his collision w/ Abe in terms of timing. Y’know what else? I think the inclusion of the cut Guardian Angel teaser right after Abe’s capture at Rupture Farms would’ve definitely worked. Like, right after that scene, over a black screen some text says “hours later”. Or imposed on the screen as the scene plays out.
You did really good job. Well done that is truly a masterpiece
Thank you very much PolarBee! :)
26:19 - 26:27
I love that edit so much, just cause of how comedic the timing of it is. X D
I really like it, great job
Only issue that I have with it is that it feels a bit odd to me personally, because the scenes aren't in the same order as they appeared chronologically in games - it just feels odd to see Abe go to the Soulstorm Brewery before coming back to Rapture Farms, seeing Munch appear so early and etc.
But except for that it's amazing
Thank you! And yeah, it's definitely odd as someone familiar with the games to see it in a different order like this haha.
I love the way you did this video! Like how you swapped the glukkon voices for the older more intelligible ones
this was amazing to watch im surprised that you didnt use soulstorm but this was well done especially with Much involved too! love your content on Oddworld!
what a great and emotional story.. they should have really focused on doing that kind of stuff more
This was an incredible project and you clearly have a talent for film making, so well done dude youre a superstar! Now i feel like im caught up to watch a playthrough of soulstorm thanks to you man, good job! Also the beginning cgi was so nice i thought it was part of the initial intro cutscene lol. You rock dude.
I think that John Davis would be perfect too make the movie because he did a good job with Jimmy neutron and antbully
Great video Benny.. Loved it..
The bit on the Munch clip made me laugh 😂.
"You must save Munch from Vykers Labs..
Find the big well, and then.....
An then.....
Zzzzzzzzzz 😴"
Nice Fan Film Video 👍🏻
Edit: Also When You Made This Video. It Kind Of Feels Like I'm Watching A Real Life Animation Movie :)
Thank you so much Reddest, I'm very glad it gave you that feeling and that you enjoyed it! :)
I would watch this
what a nice act of you, putting all this together! thank you, this made my day. amazing what you did f.e at 9:09.
ps: how did you enhance the graphics? and is the munch footage from the new series x b.c. edition or from the original? it looks so amazing, you really did a good job. thanks again! be blessed
Thank you very much Mr. G-sez! The munch footage is from the PC version, I just used some AI technology to upscale the footage and did some editing techniques to make it look (imo) better and also made the framerate higher to make it look way smoother hopefully! Thank you and be blessed as well. :)
@@pupbenny i thought all of the Odysee footage was from New n Tasty at first and then realized it somehow was the original cutscenes upscaled. Well done
I really hope an animated series or movie comes out from odd world inhabitants. I know Lorne is focused on games but man a movie of this would be great.
Your such a good fan
Thank you! :)
Oddworld really is peak fiction.
Great video my dog likes it too for some reason 🤣😅 she's paying attention to the entire thing 🤣 guess she's a fan of oddworld too 🤣😂
Top quality. Well done, lad.
Thank you! :)
I only recently found out about Abes odyssey and loved this, cheers
Man... You are amazing!
30:20 I was always bummed that when Lulu said, "I'm king of the world Ma!" That another newspaper would have Lady Margret saying something snarky about him
I used to be terrified of this game as a kid. I honestly thought I had imagined it in a fever dream or something. It feels surreal to of found this after so many years
An RTS would be the perfect sequel to these games
Good stuff man!
Great work. I like how it is spliced together. Good pacing.
Benny you are nuts... and i love it
Haha, I certainly feel nuts. Ever more so as each day passes. Thank you! :)
This is amazing
What a treat this was to watch 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
I'm glad you enjoyed it! :)
That was awesome! Thank you bro
Benny, I'm dying to know where you got the score of the cutscenes from in their original form (For example, the sombre music from the ending of Abe's Exoddus that doesn't get interrupted by the record scratch cutting to the M.O.M. news bulletin)
Haha, yes, I was very fortunate to find that! I knew I wanted to use a full version, assuming one existed. So, I checked Oddworld Inhabitants own Abe's Exoddus The Movie (it's on RUclips), that inspired me to make this film, to see if there was anything from that I could use, and that music was in the credits luckily! It's a bit poor quality though, (couldn't find a high quality version) so I kept the original from Exoddus but faded that out before the record scratch in an attempt to hide the poor quality. I didn't explain that very well. I just put it together basically, hopefully hiding some of the bad quality of the full version.
Oh yeah and I added somewhat of an echo effect to it to try to hide the poor quality.
Amazing movie!! Congrats!!
I noticed one of the Vykers surgical machines over munch looks awfully like the head of a slig like it’s a machine made too look like one. I wonder why that is or if it’s just a coincidence?
Munch 3D?????
WOW FULL HD CUTSCENES
Glukkons are much as a victim of circumstance as are any other creature under their subjugation. Very deep.
Y’know, to be honest, this all actually makes sense and actually really fits in a chronicle order. Plus it makes a lot of sense.
To bad there won’t be a second one relating to Soulstorm and strangers wrath
But I’m sure it was worth it ^^
Also can you list some soundtracks that were used in this video? Because their amazing ouo
The ending music I mean
I noticed at 28:47 lulu has a picture of slogs playing poker in his office
i really curious how can make the voices of Abe, and the other creatures of Oddworld (Munch for example) ',:O
Lorne Lanning voices nearly all of them. :)
I have never played Oddworld on Playstation, PS4 or PS5 only on PC in the 90's which was Oddworld: Abe's Oddysee
I've got all four games on one Dvd from a magazine.
By accident I started with "Abe's exoddus".
So it was true that the original version had a Mudokor head on a stick for a product. Honestly, I feel the popsicle fits better for the snack aesthetic the other products have, even though it is darker just to show the head on a stick, plus, it makes sense on an advertisement level
Yeah, it was originally changed for Japan only.
I honestly wish New and Tasty kept the darker cloudy lighting for RuptureFarms since it looks better to me along with the interior of the plant itself.
Yeah I agree, it seemed way too bright and colourful to me. I tried to edit the footage of NNT to try to give a darker tone and reduce the bloom and that kind of thing to match somewhat better with the original footage.
32:21 why do those two almost sound like Alf and Toby from Soulstorm?
You did a good job, though the start is a bit confusing. It shows us Abe escaping and then escapes to Munch. To someone like me who knows nothing about Oddworld, it's a bit confusing, at first. Eventually, it does make sense.
The fuzzles make me cry every time!!!
From The Creators of Stranger’s Wrath 💙🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩💙
you know whats funny and also kinda crazy?
yesterday i searched for infos about oddworld movie on yt and today you upload a video with the same title! really weird. i was looking for something that lorne lanning mentioned, about a oddworld series or movie. he did not confirm anything, i think he didn't want to mention it. it was an interview on their channel, where this girl plays soulstorm.
Another funny coincidence happened to me while I was uploading this. Someone sent me a tweet saying that, due to hollywood usually screwing up film adaptions of games, it's a good thing they never made an oddworld movie. xD I found it funny reading that while I was uploading a video literally called 'Oddworld The Movie' haha. Hopefully if they did do an actual oddworld movie which, as you said is something lorne has kind of mentioned before, I think it would be okay as it's always sort of been a plan to eventually do a film of the story. It sort of feels like as opposed to most video game adaptions where it's a film of a game, an oddworld movie would be more like a film of a story.
21:55 Looks like Abe sucks at rescuing mudokons if it's the end of his adventure xD
xD Yeah and plus in the cutscenes you never actually see him rescue any so I find it kind of funny in this film when he says 'I rescued Mudokons but who's gonna rescue me.' It makes it look like he's lying lmao, a part of me says 'You rescued Mudokons!? When!?'
22:42 just noticed their hand praying gestures is identical to the vortiguants in hl2
This looks rather real! Do it!
You mean ka mon do it
Why does this look better then the actual remake cutscene
great job...I really enjoyed it...thankyou this is a cautionary tale ...all you Glukans out there take heed ....hehehehe
First time experiencing the story thank you. Game is rated T but definitely an M experience
Nice video
Thanks Terry! :)
WE NEED AN ODDWORLD MOVIE OR TV SERIES!!!
Man! Great Job!!!!!
Thanks! :)
22:52 - 23:08 Big Face rescue Abe
Damn, this whole time I thought gluks were large and only had feet, but in reality they were only hands and just have large profiles.
So, I never heard of this until yesterday.
The Almighty Algorithm has made sure that I am seeing titles of a ton of videos since then.
This is the only one I've watched so far though. Finishing it up right now.
I'm still confused AF... But enjoying it 😜😂
Nice job on this video.
What ai have you used for the upscaling please?
i work hard, i work haaard
what if he gets to the boiler!
se boiler?
The boiler?
@@xandan1668 What are we going to do!?
The boiler!
Why did they change slogs to scrabs? Is it because they had the scrabs in the last scene?
If oddworld inhabitants makes a movie this would be it they would use your fan made movie
My dude, this is great
Thank you! :)
