Kung Pow - Enter the Fist
We have purposely trained him wrong, as a joke.
While we are talking kung, Kung Fu Hustle is golden as well.

The amount of effort he puts into practically free videos on the internet is amazing.
“Practically” free?
Someone is paying for it, just because it’s not you doesn’t mean it not paid for. Thats why youtube has fifty bajillion ads and everyone has sponsorships these days.
If you’re forced to watch ads to watch the video, it’s not free unless your time is worthless. Although, ads on YouTube videos can be circumvented. Thereby practically free.
The original of this seems to have been removed, but this is fun an weird if you’re into music production: Andrew Huang - Foods n Dudes
Well, the full version of Kung Fury is still in production, so quite soon!
There is more coming? What when how? I need it.
Back in the day there was Hardware Wars.
I was going to say this!
Shorter but just as good, there was The Speed of Time.
Check out Angie Tribeca. It’s a parody cop show with non-stop nonsense similar to how Kung Fury is.
Right before Kung Fury, there was Iron Sky. Moon Nazis, Sarah Palin as the U.S. president, and just generally over the top. Iron Sky 2 was kinda meh.
I would say the Hazbin Hotel and Helluva Boss pilots were really solid and The Amazing Digital Circus is a mother standout.
This made me think of Tuca and Bertie which has an offbeat sensibility and is well done IMHO
Everything, Everywhere, All At Once comes to mind. Redline is another that has a similar feel (the intro sequence is insane)
I wasn’t really blown away by redline, it just felt like cheap effects with long trail lines.
I was however blown away by Dandadan’s first episode. A genuine tour de force of amazing animation and pacing.
It renewed my love of anime which I thought had been stagnant for a while. Every single frame had its own vibe.What blows my mind about Dandadan is the audio. Anime has never sounded so good.
Same! It also has one of the few intro songs that I don’t skip because I always hear something new each time.
Dandadan is very pretty, but Redline uses no effects or CGI. It was one of the last animated movies to be completely hand drawn using traditional animation. The reason it looks like “cheap effects” is because over 100,000 hand-drawn frames were made for it over a seven year production period to push the animation to the absolute limit. Please reconsider.
I guess I’ll have another stab at it with fresh new eyes, but I doubt I can shake off the initial impression already burned into my mind.
Edit: I just watched the intro sequence linked above, and though I can appreciate the heavy layering of multiple elements in beautifully crafted scenes… I can’t shake off the feeling that they’re just animated static paintings, with lots of closeups to distort the action, but very little change in background - except maybe a short stint in that boost scene where the perspective lines beautifully converge. It’s top-tier out of this world art, but I wouldn’t say it’s good animation.
Edit2: I’m guessing it’s mostly just a personal preference of what good animation is. I’m likely going to receive many downvotes for this edit, but consider this fight scene between Madara and the Shinobi Alliance (specifically the 10 second segment between 1:43 and 1:57). The art is piss poor, anyone can see that by simply watching an episode of Naruto. But the sheer dynamism, perspective shift, and pacing, really communicate well how devastating an earth-shattering force Madara is, even with piss poor art. To me, that is good animation. The motion transcends the art.
what you like is sakuga lol, I like it in short doses, look up hobbes sakuga, mute and play your favorite music, I caught hella ppl that dont like anime or were initially hating on it for being on just staring st the screen for minutes. (Would use their vid as visuals while we played music off our speakers in college)
hobbes sakuga
Woah, solid recommendation! Thanks for this
I showed redline to my family who would absolutely hate anime and they asked me for more like it. Unfortunately, there isn’t.
I pitched Redline to my partner as “It’s a racing movie but they cranked the ‘anime’ knob up to 11. It’s great.” They loved it.
There’s absolutely nothing else like it, every frame is a painting.
It did kinda remind me of Dead Leaves though.
Props for the Dead Leaves reference, I watched that like 15 years ago and I sometimes forget what it was called but never that specific style. Insane animation.
I’m a sucker for anime that isn’t afraid to get weird with it. I should really look through more of Studio Trigger’s catalogue.
There is another move Daniels made before. Swiss Army Man. Don’t watch trailer, don’t read about the movie, just watch it.
Love that one! Daniel Radcliffe has such amazing range. All the way from a corpse to a man with guns nailed to his hands.
Don’t watch trailer, don’t read about the movie, just watch it.
100% this.
I don’t think I’ve ever said “what the fuck?” as often in any other movie
…Sounds like you’re looking for “Thousands of Beavers”. Great movie.
only catch is “well produced,” which I would argue this movie proudly isnt
I was stoned out of my mind and I STILL couldn’t finish that garbage. It would have been amazing if it were a 10-15 minute short.
damn this the wrongest take ive read all day

Which was started/inspired by these two music videos:
Check out Rubin and Ed. Not the same type of a WTF movie experience but worth a watch if you appreciated Kung Fury.
The entire channel of Bobby Fingers and especially my favourite Jeff Bezos row boat
Oh yeah, that whole thing is creepy as fuck. But very well made.
The entire time ive watched this the only thing on my mind is “wtf, he cant just create a new tangent pur of thin air” and then he proceeds to mould 2 new tangents, one out of polystyrene, and another out of clay. Then he stuck them together. And created a mega tangent.
