    This isn't that surprising

    If The Annoying Orange and Fred! got TV shows out of being internet popular, why wouldn't they try to make it Skibidi?

      Because it's about a war where the main enemy is heads emerging from toilets. I know a lot of children's media can be dumb or weird but this is pushing it

          Transformer was literally a toy commercial, just like GI Joe and He-Man and basically any cartoon from the 80's

          Being a weird internet tee-hee is a step-up

          Why do you need to paint your morality in black and white? There is complexity in all of nature; and if the goal of the artist is to hold a mirror up to the world, should that complexity not be reflected in the art?

                I haven't seen any of these videos so I have no idea if you're fucking with us or not

                  It's a series of very short videos where people with cameras for heads fight people whose heads are sticking out of toilets. It is primarily concerned with the latest weapons and tactics in this war, and does not explore the reasons or ideologies behind it, but the camera head people are portrayed more sympathetically.

    This is kinda fucked. People have been making Garry’s Mod and SFM movies for over a decade now and they’ve never been approached by anyone. Valve even scrapped their adult swim show and never looked for any other creators.

      they're gonna somehow make the original skibidi videos copyrighted and illegal to just spread, arent they?

      Faer power was not diminished by being banned, fae merely refocused faer efforts on reshaping reality to fit faer vision

    I guess I'd better go watch the Skibidi youtubes before the whole thing is ruined by this

      I watched all of it recently and it's oddly compelling about halfway in

        It's actually enjoyable when the series finds its footing. I'm actually checking every two weeks if a new release is out.

      First ones are shorts-only, but then Dafuq started doing fullscreen versions alongside shorts (and now does only fullscreen). YT uses the mute button liberally on the "copyrighted" sections (basically the skibidi chant). Check videos that include multiple episodes, they might have less of that, and also include extra scenes.

    So out of all the GMOD and SFM animations/movies made out there, THIS is what the mainstream media is going to make a movie about?
